In a stunning twist, a personal trainer in Rome discovered his humble client “Robert” was none other than Pope Leo XIV. Valerio Masella trained the future pontiff—Cardinal Robert Prevost—for two years, unaware of his true identity. Known for his calm and balanced demeanor, Prevost worked out frequently, blending into gym life. The revelation came when Masella saw his former client emerge as Pope on TV. Praised for his physical fitness and humility, Pope Leo continues to inspire, even receiving a tennis racket from Italy’s Jannik Sinner this week.
