Bethrand (CoachUp client)
Coach Ricky is like a sport parent to me! Really helped me get in boxing shape and worked really well overall with me. I am working towards coach Ricky being my only coach for life! I do not even feel comfortable with any other coach coaching me because, coach Ricky knows both my strength and weakness and me generally.
Tyrus (CoachUp client)
Very active and mental with flexible workout to help whole body
Zeljko (CoachUp client)
First class act! Highly recommend!
Katherine S. (Testimonial)
Ricky took me from a couch potato (who could barely make it through my first training session) to a fit and motivated regular at the gym. I lost pounds and inches, and I gained strength, endurance and confidence. He challenged and encouraged me at each step. I highly recommend Ricky for training at any level. Whether you're a beginner or a star athlete, he can help you reach your fitness goals.
Barbara B.- Personal Training (Testimonial)
I have been training with Ricky Jackson -- he has just the right balance of pushing, supporting, and humoring me to make it work. He knows what he is doing and he gets results. Would recommend to anyone that is motivated and ready to work.
Brian d. (Testimonial)
Rick has lowered my body fat considerably and has helped me with my conditioning to a level i did not think was possible. He is very explanatory to help you understand why he approaches things in the way he does. His approach and philosophy helped me to reach my goals in a very short time frame while keeping it fun.
Malcolm W. -Personal Training (Testimonial)
A true professional! Ricky personalized my program that enabled my rehab from surgery and then segued into advancing my physical fitness. More importantly, he provided motivation through data-driven program planning, workout variety, and positive coaching while inducing pain that was actually rewarding and produced results! He has a presence and an attitude that just makes you want to be better and work harder! The ultimate trainer! Thanks Ricky

I can honestly say, that Ricky Jackson is THE BEST trainer I've ever had... The results I achieved working with him were phenomenal. I get compliments regularly about the changes in my physique. I would refer anyone to him that is wanting REAL results!!
Denise B. High-Intensity Interval (HIIT) Training (Testimonial)
It's been a week since I've begun training with Ricky and I already feel the difference. I've set my long-term goal for my fitness and Ricky is doing everything in his power to push and motivate me. His workouts are intense, but he keeps you going at a good rhythm. He makes sure you don't overexert yourself but still makes sure you are pushing your limits. I would highly recommend Ricky to anyone at any fitness level.
