I was recommended Ricky Moore by a friend. I did a couple of training sessions with Ricky and found him to be very knowledgeable on both exercise and nutrition and would highly recommend him to anyone who's serious about getting in shape, I really enjoyed my sessions with Ricky, I just wish I was in the area a little longer and I could have done a few more!!
Since getting to know Ricky I have kept in touch with him ever since and still get his help and advice on various aspects of training and nutrition to this day''

Demetri Ella - Business Owner
Demetri has trained on and off, and he’s had a PT before, but never quite got where he wanted to with his physique so after doing some research he signed up with Ricky and after just 6 months he has seen more progress than in the past 6 years.
We did a short 7 week cut to see what where he was with his physique and the results as you can see from the pics where absolutely outstanding!
Here is what Demetri has to say about working with Ricky -
‘‘In the time I have been working with Ricky I have seen my rate of progress in the gym increase 10 fold!!! His knowledge on training & nutrition has blown me away and his attention to detail is absolutely spot on!
The progress I have seen with my physique in my time working with has far surpassed my expectations.
If you want to build muscle, drop some fat and sculpt your physique then Ricky is the man to go to!’’
Jenna Beckworth - Personal Trainer
Jenna lost 20kg, obtained phenomenal results, and won her first competition in her time training with Ricky.
Here is what Jenna had to say about her time working with Ricky
‘‘When I decided that competing was something I wanted to aim towards, I found Ricky's honest, no-bullshit attitude great.
It isn't just going in the gym with a coach and having a hard training session, he educates you along the way, on nutrition, supplementation, correct form, exercise tempo etc...and the whys and how's of why your doing what your doing.
I lost 20 kilos over an 18-month period in the transformation you see here, it was hard I'm not going to lie, but the feeling of winning my very first show made all the sacrifice, effort, and hard work more than worth it, the feeling of achieving your goals is unbelievable!
As far as experience goes. He's one of the very best in the business. Years upon years of knowledge. It’s great to tap into his knowledge bombs! Training with Ricky has changed my life, and my outlook on exercise, anytime I'm in doubt or feel like swaying off track from training or eating healthily, Ricky's voice is in my head spurring me to stick to the plan, because sticking to his plans, always, always gets results!’’
Matthew Bennett Business owner
I got in touch with Ricky as I was desperate to get in great shape and did't want to waste any more of my time and efforts in the gym. i have 1 PT session a week with him along with following his training program and nutritional plan to a tee.
I cannot thank the guy enough, I've got in better shape than I ever thought possible and he takes every session seriously and pushes you to your absolute limit.
I would highly recommend Ricky to anyone who is serious about getting in shape and wants to take their physique to the next level.
Lance Ray – Personal Trainer
I decided to go with Ricky as my prep coach as I knew he had huge experience in this particular field and felt confident he could help me with all his knowledge and expertise.Ricky analysed my current diet and training regime and then together we agreed on a more specific training program focusing on my weak points and a super strict nutritional plan so I could take the best physique to the stage.
Ricky supported me throughout my journey and as well as seeing me at my weekly sessions he was easy and reliable to contact through email or text whenever I needed some guidance.
I was extremely happy with the package I displayed in my shows and I would recommend Ricky to anyone who is wanting to compete or simply be in the best shape they can be!'
