Hello and thank you for taking some time to visit my site. My name is Patrick Decker, a Baby Boomer that decided to retire after 30 years behind a desk and instead pursue a true passion…helping others attain a healthy lifestyle through exercise. Like many of you, I started my fitness journey playing a few sports during my school years, but certainly nothing to brag about. I had a stable job in my early 20s and decided to join a gym…and got the fever for working out and weight lifting. It was also in this decade of my life that I met my beautiful wife Debra, started a career in the corporate world and saw my priorities shift to raising a family. I gave up the gym membership in exchange for a cheap weights and bench set, that nicely collected cobwebs in the basement. It was not until I was in my 40s, saw the kids grow and become independent, and my wife and I attain a solid footing in our careers, that I decided to hit the gym again.

Was I able to hit those weights like I did in my early years?…absolutely not, but it is amazing how the body remembers. It did not take me long to get back into the swing of things, and develop an obsession with personal fitness. After a long tenure in my career, the opportunity to retire arose, and I took it…but knew I could not sit idle. I decided to take my passion for “working out” to others, by obtaining my personal training certification, and continuing my education by specializing in corrective exercise. The knowledge I gained through these studies has influenced my own fitness routine, and I feel as strong and healthy has I did in my teens…in 2021, I turned 60.
