Austrian fitness pioneer and entrepreneur Gabriel Reifinger has received two esteemed recognitions at the UAE’s Next MasterMind Awards 2025, held at Al Habtoor Palace, Dubai. He was honored for his powerful influence on global wellness with the “Outstanding Emerging Fitness Coach Excellence Award” and the title of “Keynote Speaker – Excellence in Fitness Leadership.”
As a featured keynote speaker at the event, Reifinger addressed an audience filled with global leaders, coaches, and change agents. In his speech, he challenged outdated fitness beliefs, stating: “True transformation isn’t about pushing harder or punishing the body; it’s about building a system that works with your life, not against it. It’s about restoring your relationship with yourself – physically, mentally, and emotionally.”
Reifinger’s approach is both simple and revolutionary: no gym memberships, no crash diets, and no false promises. His program relies on a structured method that demands only two hours a week from home. The results include increased energy, renewed self-confidence, and authentic strength built through consistency, balance, and identity-driven change. With Dubai marking a key achievement, Reifinger now aims to take his mission global.
His awards recognize the unique blend of leadership, innovation, and genuine human connection that sets him apart from other emerging fitness coaches worldwide. These dual honors highlight both his entrepreneurial influence and his emerging voice as a transformational leader in the wellness space.
“We’re not just creating a fitness programme; we’re building a new culture. A place where people are strong, confident, and in control of their lives. This is just the beginning,” Reifinger said.
The UAE’s Next MasterMind Awards, created by Dr. Mansoor Al Obeidli and Dr. Navana Kundu, celebrate visionary leadership across sectors including business, coaching, education, and wellness. Reifinger’s accolades reflect a growing demand for honest, human-focused health approaches and mark the emergence of a new wave in global fitness leadership.
