About Brandon Richey

Brandon Richey has been in the strength and fitness business for over thirteen years. He’s a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist certified through the NSCA and has worked with an array of serious fitness personnel and athletes, from the age of ten all the way up to Division I and the professional level. He’s worked with athlete in a variety of sports, ranging from football, baseball, basketball, soccer, golf, rugby, and the now popular sport of MMA.

Brandon has accumulated work experience under the helm of hall of fame strength coach Dave Van Halanger in assisting with the strength and conditioning program for the UGA football team. Over the years, he’s been able to construct a comprehensive strength and conditioning program that would be beneficial for most any life situation or sport. He has an extensive background in athletic performance development (speed, agility, power) along with a disciplined self-study of kettlebells over the past six years.

Brandon has always been the crazy guy who enjoyed burning off energy by hitting and lifting stuff, which is why he’s a practitioner of muay Thai, as well as always trying to further his own personal development of strength and power. Brandon is a regular blogger, author, and lifter of heavy stuff! He’s a die hard DAWG and huge James Bond fan, so if you want to talk movies he can certainly do that too. Brandon lives by the credo: “Most anyone can train hard, but only the best train smart!”
