An Interview With Trainer Ricky Grabow

1) Why is fitness important?

Your longevity is based off of how well you take care of your body! Fitness is a major part of the process of taking care of your body, without it you are simply missing a large piece of the puzzle.


2) How can you get motivated (especially during COVID-19) to exercise?

Set a goal! Be specific about the outcome you want from exercise- example- lose 6 pounds in a month, and then create daily habits that lead you to your goal.

3) Are workout routines and schedules important?

It’s helpful to workout at the same time, and same day every week. That allows you to establish a habit. With time your body will come to expect a workout at that specific day and time.

4) How to become fit if you don't have time/don't like to workout?

If you don’t like exercise, engage in an active hobby or recreational sport! A hobby that makes you sweat is key to anyone who doesn’t like a gym setting.

if you don’t have time, I strongly recommend you find it somewhere! Fact is you will be more productive and effective after a good workout so it’s worth making time for!

Ricky’s Top Three Fitness Tips

1. Set Goals

3. Make exercise fun. The more fun you have, the more likely you are to stick to your routine!
