Richard Lombardi

Personal Trainer

From my early primary school years I played soccer right up until my late teens and became a semi pro for a year. My soccer experience really made a significant impact on the way I saw the human body and its movements. Also playing soccer for a long period of time also made me understand the importance of nutrition for gaining the most performance from your body.

As soccer became serious weight training developed along with it so that became part of my lifestyle and it still continues to be a cornerstone of my life.

In 2009/10 I became a fully qualified personal trainer at the Central Institute of Technology (TAFE). Although I’m fairly new to the fitness industry I have a vast experience in training clients from weight loss to strength and conditioning.

I believe that exercise and proper diet is crucial in everyone’s lifestyle whether they be an athlete or an accountant. Through understanding a person’s goals and aims I can help them achieve those goals through a structured exercise and diet strategy.
