Get Fit With Rich C

This is LONG over due but I have been training with Rich for probably a year now and he is truly the best. I travel a lot for work and have had trainers all over this country. Rich is, by far, my favorite. He listens. He pushes you, but not so much that you want to punch him like other trainers I’ve had. Although, if that’s what you wanted, I’m sure he would accommodate you. He totally works with you and how you want to train. He’s considerate if you have injuries but offers ways to improve on them. He works with your schedule and is always on time. Most of all, he’s fun! I really enjoy the hour he makes me do things that I really hate doing but know they are good for me. I’m not a huge workout fan. I do it because I like my food and drink lifestyle but know I need to workout in order to have a long, healthy life. Rich makes this balance not only good for me but enjoyable. He’s actually inspiring me to eat healthier and offers food plans that take into account your lifestyle. For instance, I get to go to Chipotle but have learned to order brown rice or a salad. All in all, Rich is a very positive energy and it”s infectious. Do yourself a favor and get healthy with him. You can thank me later. :)

It’s taken me too long to write this review. I’ve been training with Rich for almost 6 months and am loving every single session. He is exactly what I needed in a trainer: patient, funny, inspiring and effective. I don’t think we’ve ever done the same workout twice. He works with my ridiculously busy schedule and sends encouraging texts. Many times he will join me in a set of abs! When we’re at the gym I feel so grateful that he’s my trainer: He’s not a drill sergeant or a buffed up ‘roidhead. He’s friendly, happy and most of all, Rich will get your booty in shape!

I can’t explain how thankful I am that I found Rich, he has changed my mind about working out completely! In a matter of one month of training with him I lost 16 pounds and he makes you feel good about yourself, I highly recommend him as a personal trainer… going strong still and loosing it… if you want a great trainer this is your man!

I highly recommend Rich. He worked within my budget, within my schedule, and within my specific needs. He is well versed in nutrition and the latest and most recommended workouts. He is not afraid to give you some extra free time. Most importantly, the workouts were varied and effective. Rich himself is a great guy with a quality plan. Very easy to get along with and you will find yourself very comfortable. I reached all the goals I set for myself as well as the goals we worked on together. I am happy and confident to refer his services when ever I am asked.

Rich has been training me for about a year. He is motivational and his workouts are excellent. He is always very professional (on time, easy to get ahold of) yet is also a lot of fun to be around. His positive energy makes you glad to spend the hour working out with him.
As you can see from the reviews before me, I’m not the only one who has had a great experience with Rich as their trainer. I highly recommend him.

Even though I had successfully trained for marathons in the past, I hired Rich to help get me in shape for my wedding. Running is one thing… looking buff in a wedding dress is something different. He worked with my schedule and came up with a plan that I could do with him, and also on my own in between. He was always motivating, enthusiastic and fun! But his workouts are no joke. I was always shaking at the end. When it was time for my wedding, I can honestly say that I rocked the dress and it was all thanks to Rich. He’s top-​notch and I highly recommend him.

I began training with Rich C. in 2007. With Rich’s expertise in training I was able to lose over 50 lbs, safely, within a 6 – 8 month period. And I couldn’t have picked a better partner as Rich is extremely knowledgeable, informed, encouraging yet firm enough that you can’t get away with whining ones way out of it (I tried!) and also makes me laugh in between sets — sometimes during! — so much that the hour flies by, I’m not dreading the experience and I come out feeling rejuvenated not only physically but mentally. He’s a great listener (somehow he can talk and listen whilst still keeping track of each repetition! — it’s really like magic — ha) and it’s nice to have someone you can see a few times a week and while you’re meeting it’s all about «you». Your health, your day-​to-​day, your goals and your needs. He doesn’t take calls or text while working with you. It’s YOUR hour. That’s really important. And anytime I’ve taken an extracurricular exercise class with some friends somewhere else I am ALWAYS complimented on my form. Rich is a master of keeping you in proper form — I’ve never had an injury since the, omg, FIVE years we’ve been working together! Rich even shares nutritional info and advice and he had me eating Fat-​Free Greek Yogurt way before it was a trend (do you know it’s high in protein and NO carbs??). Rich isn’t a stereotypical muscle head either. He’s all about the best fitness régime for your body and goals. I can’t say enough good things about my experience with Rich C. as my personal trainer. His regimen changed my life, had me laughing, smiling and having a great time while doing so. Oh, and get ready to meet your new CORE strength. It’s going to make you feel and BE awesome. :) Rich C. is simply the best. I’ve had others. He is a keeper. And that’s a true story y’all!

I’ve always worked out – aerobics, tennis, walking, jogging, running, hiking, my writers’ organization’s softball team (thrown off for talking too much, but that’s for another review)…My LEAST favorite has always been weights and toning… that is where Rich came in, probably four years ago? I’m having so much fun I cannot remember, it might be five years! With a family history of osteoporosis, my goal was to stay off the bone drugs – and yes, look decent sleeveless. Rich has helped me on both fronts… he’s also full of tips for how to improve my time in 10ks and half marathons… and always has some new exercise – many of which I can do at home with minimal equipment. Yay, Rich!

Rich is the best! He helped me lose weight, firm up, and get muscle tone in places I never thought I could. He also taught me a lot about nutrition, which was extremely helpful. There is a very sincere positivity about him and it can’t help but rub off and motivate you. He is just a wonderful person all around!

I trained with Rich before my wedding and was always so surprised when I woke up the next day sore as I had always had so much fun the day before — it never seemed like a work out! But make no mistake, Rich will whip your body into shape in no time. If he can get ME looking wedding dress ready, he can do it for anyone. Two thumbs up.

Rich is the best trainer I’ve ever had. I have really bad asthma and he is very patient with me and tailors my workouts to how I’m feeling that day. I have noticed a huge difference in my body. He makes working out fun!

I hate gyms. I’d much rather drive by one on my way to ice cream than actually go in. But that, sadly, would not have helped me look good in my silk wedding dress. Enter Rich. Rich trained me for seven months, producing form and muscles I never knew were under there. He’s hilarious and bursting with energy. In seven months you’d think the guy would’ve been in a bad mood once — not him. He even showed up with a sprained wrist, rather than canceling. Always smiling, always creative, always mixing it up so you never know what comes next. And as if this isn’t enough of a ringing endorsement, Rich created treadmill workouts for me, as I was not a good runner. With a workout in front of you, it’s so much easier to stay on the thing for 45 minutes. Man, I really need to re-​up with this guy, actually.
