My Mission

My mission is to continually help my brothers & sisters see how it is never too late to get back on the wagon despite all of our imperfect choices or mistakes. There's no shame in it. Sometimes the most interesting narratives come from our mighty rise from the ashes of heartbreaking simple failures. Having a bachelor’s degree in Journalism & master of arts degree in English & creative writing combined with my multiple fitness trainer certifications uniquely positions me to address the whole situation and ultimately the whole person. I believe in a comprehensive approach & holistic medicine. There's not merely one right way to perfect health & happiness--we are all blessed with the insights of the roads laden with pros & cons. It's up to the truly conscientious to sacrifice time & energy to be patient enough to hear people out. It's the only way to maximize your common ground as perspective is crucial. My empathy for your feelings runs deep & I endure your burdens in my compassion.

Change is the law of life. Those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future

Why Train With Me

Clients who train with me will have the benefit of my multifaceted breadth of knowledge and experience in the fields of health and fitness as well as my experience as a writer, salesman, counselor, teacher, and friend. I may not be the most experienced fitness trainer, but I do have the drive to persevere by giving my clients the extra care and attention to detail that they ideally deserve, but may not get from someone who is more experienced and possibly complacent to the degree that clients feel like a number rather than a highly unique individual with specialized needs that can be handled.

My go-to workout

Depending on workout day etc.: indoor/outdoor bike, lift weights, hot tub, swim laps, sauna, rest.

Healthy food I love

I have found success as a flexitarian [plant centered diet with occasional inclusion of meat].

Healthy food I hate

Over processed cardboard tasting healthy labeled food products with misleading information.

Client stories

"Before finding Kickoff, I wasted so much time sitting in my car at the gym trying to google the "best" workout for the day. Now I never fret over workouts - they're sent to me with clear instruction in the Kickoff app. Working with my trainer via text has been such a benefit. Having that accountability was key - I beat my goal by 10 lbs, losing 40 lbs before my wedding day!"

Peyton

Texas

"Working with Kickoff is awesome! It has helped me learn so much about what it takes to transform your body. I have lost 23 pounds and 5% body fat since working with Rachel and I've never felt better!"

Augie H.

Florida

"I have loved every single week of Kickoff. As a busy, working mom, I don't like leaving my home & family to go to the gym. My trainer Jen designs workout plans for me that work with what I have at home. She levels me up in strength when I'm ready & adjusts when I'm not feeling my best. Kickoff is realistic, sustainable & supportive. That's why it's been so successful for me!"

Miriam C.

Oregon

"I lost 70 pounds of fat (265 to 195) and am keeping it off with Kickoff! I’m now adding muscle and getting stronger! My coach makes it fun and straightforward to stick to an awesome exercise and nutrition program that really works."

Giancarlo R.

Georgia

"I’ve lost 25 lbs with Kickoff and have gained a tremendous amount of strength and confidence. Thanks to Kickoff, I was able to tweak my nutrition & really see a noticeable difference all around including my energy levels. I am finally feeling like myself again!"

Brooke H.

California

"My body fat decreased by 5.3% & is now 17.8%. I lost about half an inch in my waist, hips, and thighs. It's easier for me to get in the gym and complete a workout when I don't have to stress about actually planning the workouts. I love how supportive and flexible my coach has been. Kickoff has become a welcome constant amongst the chaos of everyday life."

Ashley B.

Alabama

"As a mom of 4, Kickoff has been such a blessing to me! Not only has it has helped me learn to eat and how to focus on different areas of my body, but it has also helped me gain more self confidence! My trainer is able to base my workouts off of what equipment I have at home, and I don't have to be a part of a gym!"

Nicole H.

Tennessee

"I'm loving the accountability piece that comes with Kickoff. My clothes fit much better. My coach has been great in helping me figure out macros/nutrition, and the workouts have been great. I'm impressed with how my strength has improved over the past weeks - it means the world. Fitness was a big part of my earlier years, and it's been huge to get back in shape! Thank you Kickoff!"
