Ray Smith Personal Training
Welcome to my site.  You have taken the first step toward a healthy and active lifestyle.  Fitness has   always been a passion of mine.  However, those of us who are truly dedicated to wellness are labeled as "meatheads."  This stigma goes unwarranted because a dedication to weight training, cardiovascular work, nutrition, and flexibility are fundamentals to health and well being. 

My Core Philosophy
I believe fitness in that of itself is the not absolute truth to a well rounded lifestyle.  What do Plato, Mao Zedong, Teddy Roosevelt, and Arnold Schwarzenegger have in common?  All of these men stressed the importance of an active and physical lifestyle to compliment the whole self.  Plato stressed rhythmic athletic movements in conjunction with rigorous academics. Although considered a ruthless politician, Mao challenged China to become physically active in order to compete as a national power.  Teddy Roosevelt made his cabinet do exercises on the Whitehouse lawn!  I think we all know what Arnold has done.  The point is, life is all about balance.  Physical activity and proper nutrition will contribute to success in other areas of your life and will provide you with confidence, energy, and tenacity in the face of challenges.  This is where I come in.  If you want to start personal training, need a program, or simply need a nutritional packet put together I want to help you help yourself.  Click on the links to understand more about my personal training.
As Plato once said, "Lack of activity destroys the good condition of every human being, while movement and methodical physical exercise save it and preserve it."
