Testimonials

"I started with Richard on July 8th, 2019. I was 220.1 lbs and had to buy 42” jeans.  My activity level was low and I became more and more frustrated every time I tried to exercise because I was too heavy.  With Richard’s experience, expertise, knowledge, and professionalism in nutrition and fitness, I have lost over 40 lbs in a little over 4 months. My life and my body have gone through an unbelievable transformation.  I buy 33” jeans now and now run at a sub 8 minute mile pace opposed to my previous 10.5 minute pace. I have even be advised by my doctor to be re-evaluated and re-screened to discontinue my cholesterol medicine because it is much lower. I have tried many diets in the past and have failed.  In retrospect, those diets are a fad.  Richard’s process and methods are a life style change and an education.  His methods work. My only inconvenience now is buying new clothes. I strongly recommend Richard to everyone who is looking for a healthier and happier lifestyle."

"I am 42 years old, and I have struggled with eating since my childhood.  As long as I can remember I have had a love for junk food, pizza, donuts, chips, soda, you name it.  With a 20+ year construction career I would often stop at a convenience store multiple times a day and eat junk.  I started with Richard Fitzgerald on March 10, 2019 weighing 280 lbs.  Richard has helped unlock the key not only to weight loss but long term sustainable health, which is always his focus.   I am down 57 pounds since I started with Richard and plan to lose another 20 before I get into my maintenance phase.  He has helped pinpoint the areas I need to pay closest attention to, which for me is sodium and water intake.  I still struggle with old habits, but Richard has always been a positive source of encouragement on this road to physical health.  Not only is Richard a coach, but he is walking proof of the lifestyle that he is promoting.  If you need some help and encouragement please look no further than Richard Fitzgerald to help you accomplish your physical health goals!"

“I have seen dietitians before and failed, leaving me defeated, but Rich's approach is different. It really is an individual approach. Not all plans fit all. It's apparent Rich truly cares for each person he is coaching since he tailors them to each person. I highly recommend him. “

”I’ve learned so much from Rich!  He’s helped keep my macros balanced from day 1 and taught me so much along the way.  Not only have I learned a lot, Rich has been so encouraging.  When I’ve felt down about my progress, he’s always encouraged me to keep my head up and continue in the process.  I’ve been able to lose 20 pounds, even while injured, by following closely to the plans that Rich laid out for me.”

“I am writing to you today to express my sincere gratitude for the personal and dietary training you have provided me over the past few months. I can’t express enough my thanks for the results we have achieved from our many hours of talking and setting goals as well as overall good health. When I started my goal was to lose 15 lbs with your help I was able to obtain that goal and continue to lose weight in a healthy and fit manner, and have now lost 31 lbs.

When we first met, you asked me what my goals were. After using other trainers in the past you were the first one who helped me achieve those goals. You listened and understood what I wanted to accomplish in my workouts. Good money/time spent with your expertise and interest in my wellbeing. We were able to work through the aches and pains in a manner that enabled me to continue my workouts and still gain strength and lose weight in a safe and effective way.

Thanks Rich for keeping this 50-year-old man in shape and healthy!”
