Who Is “Fit By Ike” Personal Training
In Richmond, Anyway?…
My name is Ike Pethtel. I’m the owner and Fitness Director of Fit by Ike Personal Training in Richmond, Virginia. I am a Certified Personal Trainer, Post-Secondary Rehabilitation Specialist and Sports Nutrition Specialist with the nationally recognized International Fitness Professionals Association.
Personal training is my second career. I became a personal trainer at age fifty after a twenty year career in the communications industry.
Having experienced a significant health transformation myself and experiencing the positive impact it can have on one’s “quality of life,” I decided to start Fit By Ike to share the impact of this experience with others.
I’ve been successful at doing this on a full-time basis for the past ten years.
Why Use “Fit By Ike”
Personal Training In Richmond?
Fit By Ike offers a unique approach to improving your “quality of life.” Being a little older and having experienced the impact of a significant health transformation, I understand the physical, emotional and time challenges associated with making a lifestyle change. I utilize both my formal training and “informal” first hand experiences to customize a fitness and health plan that is both practical and achievable; all you need to supply is the commitment and consistency. It’s that simple…and it always works!

“Experience, knowledge and a passion for helping others. These are three things you want in a personal trainer and Ike has them all. And, he brings a smile where ever he goes. I initially met Ike several years ago while volunteering at the YMCA. Since that time, I’ve seen first hand how passionate he is about his career as a personal trainer and fitness coach. If you are serious about improving your health and fitness, contact Ike. Highly recommended.” February 10, 2010
