TRAIN FOR EVERYTHING LIFE THROWS AT YOU

“TO GET TO PLACES YOU’VE NEVER BEEN, YOU HAVE TO DO THINGS YOU’VE NEVER DONE”

My name is Ricky Burk, I have been a Certified Personal Trainer since 2016 and have serviced almost 10,000 sessions. Prior to COVID I was the head trainer and manager for a corporate gym which gave me the opportunity to train a wide variety of clients ranging from a young athlete looking to gain an athletic scholarship, to the 90 year old grandmother that just wants to be able to dance at her granddaughters wedding; and everything in between. I grew up playing sports like soccer, baseball, football, track and field and this led me to Power/Olympic lifting and eventually progressed into a more functional based training as I transitioned to work with my knee, back and shoulder issues.

Client Success Stories

“In September of 2017, I signed up for personal training with a trainer named Ricky Burk. My expectations were low, based on prior experiences, many years before. But, from the first day Ricky showed me a compassion for helping people (even over 62) but more importantly a real basic understanding of human anatomy and physiology and kinetic science. He is able to mix the sessions up every time using less machines and more physical resistance exercises and having an ability to make the exercises interesting and challenging; and he inspired me to work out regularly.

I did lose weight while working out with Ricky, but what was more important to me is that I gained strength, especially core strength, and a confidence. Through my varied work outs, with kettle bells, ropes, machines, sand bags, etc I felt stronger in all aspects of my life. I thank Ricky Burk for this.”

“For about 2 years I trained with Ricky Burk. At first it was only about twice a week, and a few months we would train 3-4 days a week depending on my schedule, which was to start off one of the things I enjoyed about training with Ricky. He would have flexibility with scheduling but would also hold me accountable for working out the days we didn’t train together. When I first started training with Ricky my goal was to be stronger, primarily from my lower body. I told Ricky I wanted to squat over 200lbs, and he made sure we did one day. Ricky made sure all his workouts had a purpose, they were building blocks to improve my squats and deadlifts, even if I didn't like every exercise I would push through because I trusted the science he backed everything up with. Ricky is a wealth of knowledge and will not disappoint you. He is caring of each person he trains and makes it his personal commitment to help you reach your goals. training with Ricky was the best decision i've ever made throughout my fitness lifestyle.”

I started working with Ricky ten months ago. In that time my knee and hip pains are completely gone, my overall mobility has vastly improved, my daily life habits have improved, I’ve lost 25 pounds and I am so much more confident in myself for multiple reasons. Yes you have to be the one to put in the work, but Ricky is fantastic at adapting to his clients needs/goals and will help you get there in a way that suits you best. He has a natural talent at being a coach. It’s not just the knowledge he has, it’s how he implements it. If you’re thinking about training with Ricky, do yourself a favor and pull the trigger now.”
