Thank you for visiting my Personal Training website, Training with Riccardo/TWR.
The objective of personal training is to get the working men and women active and moving.
Whether you are a beginner, an avid sports person, or even if you have hit a plateau, I want to assist you in resetting your goals and motivating you to achieve them. I shall be there every step of the way, offering you challenging bespoke exercises and the latest functional trends in the industry.
My name is Riccardo Coen, your expert personal trainer, and here is my story ...
I have been involved in the health and wellness industry, both private and corporate, for over 20 years both in South Africa and the USA. I have been to more gyms and businesses than I can even remember and have trained hundreds of individuals from all corners of the world, from overweight beginners to international athletes.
I have never strayed far from my passion for fitness and sport, and I still stretch myself by doing a variety of activities from Tai Chi, boxing, and dancing to swimming and rock climbing. After all, variety is the spice of life.
I have spent over 30 years of my life at the coast, mostly in Durban, where I obtained my honours degree in Sports Physiology and Sport Science.
I have learnt a lot over the years not only from the people I have met. The most important virtues I treasure are patience, kindness, understanding and forgiveness. I would like the opportunity to share my many years of knowledge and training experiences with you and hopefully have some impact on your path to health and wellness.
My approach to health and wellness is simply about training the body as a whole, moving your body to achieve your goals (whether it is a sports orientated goal, or just losing weight), and becoming active. In our world of technology, we tend to sit more and more as the years go by, and our postures become compromised, our skeletons become weaker, and our muscles less functional. I want you to get up, get out, and get active ...
My goal is to help you be
the best that you can be:
Be Bold,
Be Brave,
Be YOU!!!
