Hi, my name is Richie. I grew up having bad genetics and an Italian mother who was a great cook, not the best combinations so when my clients come to me frustrated with the inability to change their body and health, I get it. Over the past 30 years, I've not only trained moms, dads, athletes, models and celebrities, I've continued to train myself. I have a degree in science and years of training as a martial arts sensei, power lifter and bodybuilder. This amount of experience and education gives me the advantage of creating workouts and nutrition plans that are custom only for you. I don't do cookie cutter circuit training or use the same routines on all my clients. You may have better genetics than others or worse or you may want to build your strength or narrow your mid section. I have to take your goals and make them reality. I'll get you to where you want to go. I may be tough but I'm your biggest fan. Thanks for the opportunity to be your trainer.

What to Expect

The unexpected... I use all weapons in my training arsenal. You will be using machines, free weights and unorthodox exercises created by me personally that I've developed over years to get results for myself. Some days will be suspiciously "easy" and others will be intense beyond your imagination.

Client Success Story

A memorable moment happened when one of my older clients decided to enter a fitness competition. I kept him literally covered up over the period of 3 months while I chiseled away his mid-section, developed some lean muscle and gradually tightened his nutrition and training to get him ripped. The day before his competition photos, I had him take off his normal sweatshirt and sweatpants and pose in shorts at the gym. He actually got an ovation from all the gym members. I remember seeing him get choked up and how proud he was of all the hard work he endured and all the food he didn't indulge in to get to the level of fitness. He came in 2nd to over a thousand competitors and only to a guy half his age.
