We have SO many new faces around the gym that we thought it might be nice to do a new member spotlight so you can get to know your fellow athletes a little bit. Rick has been with us for about a month now and he comes to the 6am class on M,W,F. I just asked a few simple questions so here ya go . Get to know Rick ! He's a good guy to know!
1. A little bit about yourself :
Grew up in a small town Poland Ohio outside of Youngstown. Moved to Richmond VA from Albuquerque NM. I have an 8 year old Golden Retriever named Lilly, a wife named Marjorie (not going to say her age). I am a Sales Director for Cricket Wireless (ATT parent company).
2. Do you have any athletic background ?
Have played competitive sports all of my life. I was an ACSM certified athletic trainer and personal trainer for 20 years, Also certified to teach classes in Flex Performance Training (stretch bands).
3. How did you hear about us and what was your first workout like ?
Todd Sumser told me about the gym. My first workout it felt like I was all thumbs, I left feeling exhausted but looking forward to the next class.
4. Any goals you are putting in place ?
Short term goals at the gym are to work hard, and become a productive member with every workout. As a former trainer, I am realistic about expectations and results. So with that said I am hopeful to begin seeing some good results soon.
5. What's your favorite cheat meal?
Lately every meal has been a cheat meal (that is how I became overweight). But my favorite meal is Home made pasta (actually make my own sauce, Italian Sausage, and Wine).
