Richard Jefferson

I’m from Jackson, Mississippi, and grew up playing football and soccer. Both sports helped shape my competitive mindset, taught me the value of teamwork, and sparked a lasting passion for athletics.

After serving in the United States Marine Corps, I began looking for a new challenge beyond the traditional gym environment. I wanted to continue growing, expand my knowledge of fitness and athletic performance, and put that knowledge to work helping others. Coaching gave me the opportunity to bring those goals together.

What motivates me as a coach is helping athletes develop their abilities and discover how much they can achieve through consistent effort. I value the opportunity to teach, encourage, and challenge people while continuing to learn alongside them. My goal is to help develop the next generation of athletes by building a foundation of sound movement, discipline, and confidence that serves them both inside and outside the gym.
