Scott Johnson
“As a team physician for an MLS soccer team, I interact regularly with professional trainers, strength coaches and physical therapists. I can say with confidence that Rick is on a par with the best of them.”

Steven Devor
“There are very few strength coaches with the same sort of desire for new knowledge and the ability to then utilize it for their clients. Rick is able to accomplish this application of knowledge for his clients on a daily basis. He is motivated to understand the ‘why’ when it comes to an exercise or training technique, not just the ‘how’ it is done.”

Ann Kurtenbach
“I have to give a HUGE shout out and thanks to Rick Rick III for helping me to lean up, gain muscle mass, and most importantly build strength for the IM, which is something I really felt I was lacking in prior years. He did a great job at balancing the triathlon schedule and gaining functional strength, which I think showed in all of my races this year. I definitely plan on being a permanent face at his gym as long as I can afford him!”

Kathleen Huges
“Not only has Rick’s program given my training purpose but it has brought me back to my fighting weight and then some! I am stronger and leaner than I have been in years. But perhaps more important – it has helped me unleashed a fitness I never knew was possible.”

MEET THE COACH
Rick Rick III
Owner
Rick Rick is the owner and head coach at the Energy Lab warehouse training facility in Hilliard Ohio. Rick’s training methods simultaneously improve human movement and physicality. Rick works hard with his athletes to challenge them not only physically, but mentally as well, so they can begin to understand the incredible potential of the human body and spirit. Gaining his Bachelor of Science degree as a Strength and Conditioning Specialist from Marietta College, Rick understands the importance of appropriately pushing the body to its next level.
He has qualified for the Boston Marathon, completed ten full Ironman Distance Triathlons (most recently 2023 Lake Placid), cycled across America, and he’s the father of two awesome gingers. Now in his 27th year of strength and conditioning training, he is certified through the National Strength and Conditioning Association, Precision Nutrition Level 2, and specializes in Russian Kettlebell (Strong First) training.
Rick has been fortunate enough to get instruction from Pavel, Dan John, and Louie Simmons on multiple occasions. He found the Kettlebell to be a great addition to private outdoor training groups that he had been holding year-round, since 2001. The more Rick trained with the Kettlebell and other simple tools, the more he realized he needed to branch out on his own, to create a more focused training environment for youth athletes and adult athletes.
He learned a lot in the athletic club setting, and would not change that. The fitness and strength industry can be misleading, and, in most cases, this is due to the endless promotion of products and training methods. The athlete or enthusiast that is shopping for a trainer or coach is normally very confused about what they need to achieve their specific goals. Rick wanted a simple gym, void of distractions, which focuses on small group training and special outdoor events. His middle school and high school years were fortified greatly by the iron of the weight room, and he wants to give that experience and confidence to a small group of athletes and fitness enthusiasts.
