Denise Rich
Hi! My name is Denise Rich. I started my fitness journey 5 years ago. Just like many people, I put my family, work and friends before my health. We were about to be empty nesters and thought now is the time for me. So, I joined a local gym community and was soon entering all the nutrition challenges possible. After 1.5 years, I lost over 45 pounds!! Just small, simple and consistent changes to nutrition and committing to working out 6 days a week. Then we moved. Now I needed to find a similar community of support of health and fitness. I was lucky to find one similar and continued on my journey to better health and “me time”. Unfortunately, due to COVID and the shutdowns, that small gym closed. Was I sad – you bet, but that was not going to stop my journey. I luckily live down the street from my new gym family, Farrell’s. This was a completely different workout than what I was familiar with but I had to give it a chance. I was not going to quit on my goals and new lifestyle. I started Farrell’s in the summer of 2020, not the easiest time to start a gym but it was the best time. I absolutely loved learning to kickbox and I have always loved strength training. Even though my weight was plateaued at this time, my energy was increasing, my sanity was saved and I began to find joy in things again. After I was asked to coach, I was shocked but love a great challenge. So here I am, one of the coaches at STP Farrell’s and absolutely love it. Now I have the opportunity to coach individuals in their finances and fitness. What an amazing combo. My favorite part of this opportunity is meeting so many amazing and supportive people. I love hearing about everyone’s journeys and look forward in helping everyone achieve their goals along the way. Let’s lift heavy and have fun!
