Are you ready to finally knock out your fitness goals?

Ten (10) Time Trainer of the Year (Houston Awards Program and BBB (2013-2022) Ricky Jackson is ready to show you how and, as a world-recognized professional boxer, he’s not satisfied with just a knockout. When you train with Ricky Jackson, you’re deciding to be a world-class winner. You’re taking responsibility for your health and well-being and going the distance to finally reach your goals instead of just talking about them and failing to take action. Let a champion show you how. Over the last four decades, there is hardly an element of fitness that Jackson hasn’t conquered. He’s dominated not only collegiate athletics but his endeavors at the professional level, as well. Not to mention his collaborative efforts as the director of numerous athletic programs and a one-on-one coach and personal trainer. In 2013, he was honored for his achievements, work ethic, and commitment to his students and clients by receiving the Personal Trainer of the Year award in his hometown of Houston, Texas. It was a hard-won honor Ricky takes tremendous pride in, just as he’s humbled and appreciative of all of the acknowledgments he’s received.

His experiences there— particularly the education he received from the many great trainers/coaches he had the opportunity to work directly with— provided Ricky with the power to develop training programs that have led to phenomenal results for his countless satisfied clients. Jackson would go on to spend seven years as the supervising head of the strength and conditioning program at TSU. Overseeing 18 different sports within the athletic program at TSU, Jackson received a huge amount of praise and recognition for his efforts to develop the school’s weight room into a fully-functional training facility for all of the athletic program’s talent.

Ricky, the fitness saves my life. The doctors said had I not been in such great shape I may have died. Two cysts and my uterus wall finally ruptured and blood and fluid went into my abdomen and pelvic cavity. Had I not been so fit my body would not have been able to make it. I had emergency surgery and the endometriosis had taken over everything and grown into my spine and pelvic ligaments, colon and organs. No wonder I was hurting so badly. Anyway after I recover in 6 weeks I should be way better and in no pain and able to get into the best shape ever. Thanks for training me. It literally saved my life!

A true professional! Ricky personalized my program that enabled my rehab from surgery and then segued into advancing my physical fitness. More importantly he provided motivation through data-driven program planning, workout variety, positive coaching while inducing pain that was actually rewarding and produced results! He has a presence and an attitude that just makes you want to be better and work harder! The ultimate trainer! Thanks Ricky

Katherine S.

Ricky took me from a couch potato (who could barely make it through my first training session) to a fit and motivated regular at the gym. I lost pounds and inches, and I gained strength, endurance and confidence. He challenged and encouraged me at each step. I highly recommend Ricky for training at any level. Whether you’re a beginner or a star athlete, he can help you reach your fitness goals.

Personal Training

It’s only been a month, but I already feel the difference and improvement in my fitness level. Ricky is personable but the sessions can be intense, which is a good thing to me. He also keeps you going with a good balance of cardio, resistance training, and boxing which keeps things from becoming tedious. He makes sure you don’t overexert yourself, but still keeps it challenging and progressive. I would highly recommend Ricky as a trainer.

Rachel F.

I’m a healthcare professional, and though my personal health has always been a priority to me, a hectic personal life had begun to interfere with maintaining my physical health and endurance. I sought a personal trainer that I felt was experienced, and could quickly re-establish a healthy lifestyle for me. I was blessed to find Ricky Jackson. He is knowledgeable about diet and fitness. He quickly trained muscle groups, and worked to increase my strength and endurance. My overall fitness has improved tremendously, quickly, under his direction. The sessions were always versatile, never boring. He will make you sweat, and push limits. With his expertise, you should quickly reach your fitness goals.

Julie S.

Great workouts! Always challenging us!

Susan m.

Ricky is not only a talented PT but also a truly nice guy. He comes backed by a very impressive CV and a lengthy client list. It’s also beyond mentally satisfying (great cardio and strength exercise as well) to take some jabs at the heavy or the speed bag. Hank’s gym is a welcome change from the slate of chain clubs. Old fashioned and no nonsense yet fully equipped and beyond welcoming. Susan M (Los Angeles, CA and part time – Houston, TX)

Ricky Jackson is an outstanding trainer and his unique approach which mixes in boxing is outstanding.

Don G.

I met Ricky while searching for a personal trainer for my grandson Ricky did an outstanding job of helping both me and my grandson get physically fit. Ricky is a wonderful person and served as a life coach to both me and my grandson. Ricky is very genuine and dedicated to his trade he cares about his clients and I would recommend Ricky to anyone who wants to get their life and their body back on track. Thank you Ricky

Sean M.

Rick is an extremely great trainer, and an even better person. I’ve learned more about exercise and physical health and mental health, with rick then I’ve learned in my whole life. There’s a reason why he won Best personal trainer two years in a row.

Denise B.

High-Intensity Interval (HIIT) Training

It’s been a week since I’ve begun training with Ricky and I already feel the difference. I’ve set my long term goal for my fitness and Ricky is doing everything in his power to push and motivate me. His workouts are intense, but he keeps you going at a good rhythm. He makes sure you don’t overexert yourself, but still makes sure you are pushing your limits. I would highly recommend Ricky to any one at any fitness level.

Sherry f.

I can honestly say, that Ricky Jackson is THE BEST trainer I’ve ever had… The results I achieved working with him were phenomenal. I get compliments regularly about the changes in my physique. I would refer anyone to him that is wanting REAL results!!

Greg C.

Great trainer! Helps maintain overall fitness with a variety of effective methods. Be ready to work!

Brian d.

Rick has lowered my body fat considerably and has helped me with my conditioning to a level i did not think was possible. He is very explanatory to help you understand why he approaches things in the way he does. His approach and philosophy helped me to reach my goals in a very short time frame while keeping it fun.

Barbara B.

I have been training with Ricky Jackson — he has just the right balance of pushing, supporting, humoring me to make it work. He knows what he is doing and he gets results. Would recommend to anyone that is motivated and ready to work.
