Today we’d like to introduce you to Richard Blake.
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
My wife and I own and operate RBPT, specializing in custom personal training, complete body transformation, athletic performance, and specific body sculpting for symmetry and aesthetics. We’ve been personal training for the past 15 years, and working as a team for the last 10. We originally opened and operated a gym in Los Angeles and worked with celebrities and athletes from all over the world. In the last year, we have relocated from the hustle and bustle of LA to the awesome state of Texas to be closer to our families and create our own hustle and bustle in a new city and enjoy meeting and working with and helping new people live out healthy, full, and vibrant lives.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way? Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
We’ve encountered major struggles throughout our journey, most recently our business in Los Angeles was forced to close during the Covid 19 pandemic. We both took on odd extra jobs on the side while trying to stay afloat but ultimately decided to leave our lives in California and start over fresh in Texas. A huge life change and big move for our personal training business.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
I LOVE working with people and helping them be the best they can be! I’ve been in the fitness industry for 20 years now, training a full spectrum of clients from professional athletes, to on-camera celebrities, to individuals who are just beginning to learn about fitness and their physical body. With a Sports Medicine Degree from Northwestern, and Master Certifications from ISSA, NASM, ASFA, and ACE, I have the knowledge and ability to communicate, listen, inspire, and personalize each program to suit your individual needs. I hope I get the opportunity to work with you! One promise I make to all my clients is that I will give you my very best, and you should expect nothing less. Together our motivation is this; “It’s your body. It’s your future. It’s your responsibility.”
Where we are in life is often partly because of others. Who/what else deserves credit for how your story turned out?
My wife and business partner Amber Blake is an incredible human being. She’s a top-notch personal trainer and has worked with insanely known celebrities such as Adele, Heidi Klume, and Robbie Williams just to name a few. I’m so proud of her and her support and love in our marriage keeps our business focused and enjoyable.
