Hey Rick, I absolutely love your podcast and listen to you every morning and evening on my commute to and from work. You have a way of explaining things clearly, scientifically, but not overboard, and you have a voice that U enjoy listening to. Almost kind of like Matthew McConnaughey. Thank...Read full review »

One of my favorite podcasts in health and fitness because most are dry, too long and monotone. But not Rick!!! I LOVE Rick’s humor and personality!!! I did not expect to laugh as much as I have so far. He presents the technical information in a humorous and yet informative way and I love his...Read full review »

Your podcast is so wonderful.You give really good advice. Just finished listening to your ‘why not me’ episode, and I loved it. I just passed my test and became a CPT. I used to think ‘what business do I have doing this’ because my background is not in the fitness industry. Pushing limits that...Read full review »

Here is someone’s else’s take on the question we all get as presenters every day: “how can I be a presenter?” I love how Dr. Rick address is two of the four possibilities to become a presenter in 2023. Bravo.

I love when an episode meets me as a PT where I’m at personally and encourages me to continue to help my clients at the same time. Personally deciding to leave a few of my old gymnastics tricks behind recently (now age 49) as I too was taking a step back for at least a year repairing micro-tears....Read full review »

I would personally like to thank Dr Rick Richey for responding to my Podcast request (so quickly from the UK) which is not only going to help me better understand the knowledge learned but also help me to help people in their journey of fitness too. This Podcast has helped me better understand...Read full review »

For context, the only connection I have with NASM is that I’ve already passed the NASM CPT exam after taking their premium online guided course. I only began listening to & watching Richey’s podcasts after passing because I felt weak in knowledge in some areas. You’re not going to believe...Read full review »

I started listening to Rick’s podcast as I was studying for the NASM CPT exam over a year ago. I had no idea, most of the time, what he was talking about because I didn’t understand a lot of the terminology. However, the reason for listening was not to necessarily remember what he was saying but...Read full review »

Listening to this is like I’m literally listening to a textbook. So monotone. ZERO personality. Great information. TERRIBLE presentation.
darlingdriscoll via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/29/21
These podcasts have been EXTREMELY helpful. I seriously don’t know how I would fully understand all of the info without these. Thank you!
Hakdklclahhskcosnvajaisk via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/01/21
This podcast was super helpful while studying for my CPT certification, I used it as a study guide while following along with the book. Rick uses humor and tips to help you remember certain topics, he helps you view concepts in a different way which helps to understand it better. If you are...Read full review »

I absolutely love this podcast, he explains things in such a way where it's not just pure science going in one ear and out the other but he really makes it really makes sense. he is so personable and relatable. I have ADHD, so studying straight out of the book with no explanation is hard for...Read full review »

This review is coming from someone part way through the NASM CPT7 course. I’m 48 yrs old and have not been to college in over 20 years. The CPT7 course has its challenges and Dr Rick Richey breaks things down clearly, covers Persomal Training business topics I’m often wondering about, and his...Read full review »

I anxiously await each episode.Dr. Rick Richey is such a great teacher. He can take a very complex subject and make it simple and interesting enough for a child to understand it. Anyone who trains themselves or others should definitely be listening to this podcast.
iweinert via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/02/21
Listening while going through the NASM CPT course. So helpful. Clear and concise info.
VeganMom3Girls via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/31/21
Dr Richey fills each episode with a plethora of take away nuggets. Even when he presents a familiar topics there are pearls of wisdom from his guests and him that deepen understanding and prompt further explanation. AND his delivery comes over like a buddy at the bar, but with years of study and...Read full review »

I’ve known Rick since I started as a personal trainer since 2007 - he is one of the best personal trainers and teachers! Brilliant guy and an even better educator.
@doctor_BBT via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/21/21
This podcast was instrumental in helping me pass my CPT exam! Rick does an amazing job explaining topics covered on the test, and dives deeper into other subjects that help tie everything together. Anyone who’s taken the test knows it’s not just about memorization, but applying what you’ve...Read full review »

I started listening to these podcasts just before I started studying for my CPT last year. At first I thought I was in over my head... all these foreign words the host, Dr Rick Richie, was using were terms I thought I would NEVER understand. But Rick has a great way of explaining things and...Read full review »

Work on more quality sound and less umms. Make it better to listen to.
harttuun via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/14/21
The whole series is excellent! Rick breaks things down so nicely (in a very logical way). I’m pretty sure that I passed my CPT exam thanks to his episodes on the overhead squat assessment 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

This is will probably be the only podcast review I ever leave but I had to - this is an incredibly informative and fun podcast to listen to!! I had been searching far and wide for something like this. I was sick of the fitness podcasts that spent 30 minutes talking about nothing or just BS-info...Read full review »

Hey, great information and great guests you have on. You make complicated subjects as simple as they can be. The only qualm I have is the audio. You might have time restraints or something, but either you or your guest are always sped up. The words come so fast that with longer words or more...Read full review »

I love this podcast and Rich is very helpful and easy to follow. The real world examples really help solidify the book learning and as an auditory learner I am SO happy I found this while studying for my NASM CPT!!!!! THANK YOU!!
Wog75 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/22/20
Not only has this been my go-to lecture for prepping for my CPT, but I listen to it because it fun to learn. My own fitness has improved significantly. Rick is witty, puts very technical info in understandable terms. I do have to pause it often to let all the jargon sink in. But it’s a great way...Read full review »

I think this podcast provide more insight into what we’re all trying to do, become the best personal trainer for our clients.

I feel like I’m getting the extra extra outside of the CPT curriculum. Must listen.
Shabana22 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/20/19
I’m currently studying to become a CPT and I love this podcast! It’s great the way you present the material. I find it helpful to get the book take and your take on the material. Well done on presenting the material in an actual sense and then break it down from personal experiences. Great job!
Logancore via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/10/19
I love this podcast the first 30 secs fell in love. I’ve been a personal trainer for a while through NASM and just found this. Maybe a CES and PES podcast in the future?!🙏🙏
alex_n1997 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/19/19
Great podcast, great speaker, wish there was more content already. Made studying easier on commutes and helps keep me refreshed and thinking about training after I passed the test too. Great podcast
Gyggjggn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/19/19
This podcast has helped clear up several concepts I have been struggling with as future NASM certified CPT. You are also so engaging and fun to listen to. One topic I would personally love to hear more on is cardiorespiratory training and periodizing that training. Thanks for the awesome content!
Sammers87 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/18/19
I’m just a week away from taking my NASM CPT certification and this podcast has been an exceptional tool for preparing myself. Thanks for such great content!!!

I really like this as a follow up from the CPT and CES course. I love learning and applying new information. When I took both courses, I was only trying to pass for the most part. Now, circling back I continue gathering information that I use with my clients each day. I work with an older...Read full review »

This podcast is such a life saver! i signed up for the online only course and being able to listen to an actual human while prepping for my exam is helping me to understand assessments and muscle groupings far better.

Thank you for this content. As a recently certified Personal Trainer through NASM ‘The Importance of Being Certified’ episode was just what I needed to hear. Every episode has been so informational and appreciative of NASM’s approach to continued learning.
lacas.pelch via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/20/19
I’m an NASM CPT and an independently contracted trainer. Please keep releasing these we all need refreshers.
