Work with Rich 1-on-1.

Personal Training & Nutrition for Athletes

Optimize strength, performance and health working one-on-one with one of Michigan’s best strength coaches.

  • No! I train all those looking to improve health, fitness, performance and body composition.

  • Everyone starts with a Structural Balance Assessment, which is free!

    I found this to be a great way to get to know each other and see if we want to work together.

    See The Process below to learn more.

  • Everyone gets evaluated for strengths and weaknesses and regular body composition measurements to measure progress. You get an individualized training program, nutrition program and 1-1 training.

    You also receive regular nutrition and BioSignature modulation check-ins as you progress.

  • At a minimum, 3 days per week for great results. Ideally, 4 days per week will achieve the best results. Training sessions are 45-55 minutes long.

The Process

 

Working with Rich is all about results. For the best results, you need specificity. This means that your program has to be designed for you based on your body’s current state of function for optimal performance, fat-loss and injury prevention for long-term health and fitness.

 

Step 1:

You will be assessed using Charles Poliquin’s method of structural balance evaluation before the program design even takes place. Your weaknesses, strengths and flexibility will be tested to determine your starting point.

Step 2:

Using BioSignature Modulation, your nutritional and hormonal needs will be evaluated to complete your program design plan and optimize fat loss and muscle gain. We will evaluate and log sleep, stress and daily habits for further customization.

Step 3:

Taking your assessments and evaluations, your individualized plan will be designed, implemented, monitored and advanced as you move through the training process for optimal results.
