Rick Lewis

There are two main driving forces behind my passion for health and fitness. The first is from my personal experience in almost 50 years of leading a fit lifestyle. My passion initially was instilled and then advanced during my 22 years in the US Army. Since my retirement from the army that passion has only increased. The second has been as a fitness coach in helping others attain their health and fitness goals. It has been rewarding to see hundreds of folks improve their lives.

I am a resistance training nut. Although I have and still enjoy cardiorespiratory training for my health, nothing has provided me the sense of well being and given me the physique improvements that resistance training has provided. As a senior man, resistance training has proven the most effective at maintaining my muscular strength, skeletal integrity and balance. These days I employ split body routines in which each muscle group gets a heavy day and a light day each week.

In 2024 I retired from the ACTIVE Network and the corporate world. Prior to my 10 year stint in the technology sector, I had personal training studios in Lexington and Richmond, Kentucky. After that "retirement", I began fitness coaching again. I would invest the winnings into equipment I would use in helping my clients achieve their goals.
