Meet Franco Giordanengo of Oasis Training Facility

Today we’d like to introduce you to Franco Giordanengo.

Hi Franco , thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
Franco Giordanengo is an Argentinian-Italian athlete and fitness professional whose journey has been shaped by family, faith, and a lifelong dedication to sports. He moved to the United States in 2017 to begin a new chapter with his wife, Abigail, and is now grateful to call America home as a father to three boys — Liam, Luca, and Lincoln.

Franco’s passion for fitness began at five years old through soccer and rugby. By sixteen, he committed fully to rugby, drawn to the sport’s values, discipline, and brotherhood. His athletic path included major highs — such as helping lead his club to the finals in 2009 just days after the passing of his father — and major challenges, including injuries that tested his mental resilience. Those experiences opened doors to opportunities in Spain, Chile, and semi-pro soccer, eventually leading him to coaching and community training in Temecula.

Since 2009, Franco has dedicated himself to personal training with a mission to show people they can live healthier, happier lives. That philosophy inspired him to open Oasis Training Facility, a high-end gym built on professionalism, cleanliness, and premium fitness experiences. He’s grateful for the community that has supported him since his arrival and looks forward to continuing to grow, serve, and give back — especially through local foundations.

Franco credits God and faith as central pillars in his life, guiding his family, work, and purpose.

Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
The road definitely hasn’t been smooth, but every challenge has shaped who I am today. I grew up with very little — often without even basic necessities — and I learned early what it meant to start life from behind. I didn’t have much support growing up, and losing my father was one of the hardest moments of my life. But those dark seasons taught me the most about myself and helped me grow closer to God.

Coming to the United States brought a new set of challenges, from learning a new language to adapting to a new culture. It was one of the hardest — and most beautiful — experiences of my life. I’m incredibly thankful for this country and the people who showed me love and support along the way.

On the business side, starting Oasis Training Facility has been the biggest and riskiest project of my career. I’m still learning every day, but I’ve never viewed this journey as something about me alone. This gym exists because of the people behind the scenes — my wife Abigail, our kids, my mother-in-law Trudee, friends, clients, and the entire Oasis team. They are the foundation of everything we’ve built.

Even with all the obstacles, I’m grateful for every one of them. Those experiences prepared me for where I am today, and through all of it, I’ve leaned on God for strength, clarity, and direction.
