Rick changed my whole approach to getting healthy, even with a busy lifestyle - finally found someone who gets it

I started working with Rick because I wasn’t getting what I wanted with my weight loss and honestly was getting frustrated. What sold me on Rick was that he’s lost over 100 pounds himself. He’s not some naturally skinny person giving advice they’ve never had to follow - he actually knows what it’s like to be where I am.
The guy does such a good job of meeting me where I’m at instead of where I think I should be. He builds my workouts around my actual life and goals, not some cookie-cutter program.

Same with nutrition - he gets that I’m not going to meal prep like a bodybuilder, so he works with what’s realistic for me. And he also likes to eat whole foods with flavor, not just chicken and rice.

Honestly, the best part is I don’t have to think anymore. Before Rick, I was constantly stressing about what to eat, what exercises to do, whether I was doing it right. Now I just show up and do the work. He handles all the planning and strategy stuff so I can focus on actually getting healthier instead of burning myself out trying to figure it all out with a busy lifestyle.

Rick holds me accountable but not in an annoying way - he knows what it actually takes to lose serious weight because he’s done it. Ask him about his story when you meet him, it’s pretty incredible. He’s helped not just me but people in my life too just by sharing what worked for him.

If you’re tired of trainers who don’t understand what you’re going through, Rick’s your guy. He’s been there and he’ll help you figure it out without making you feel like crap about where you’re starting from. For those wondering, I’ve lost over 130 pounds thanks to the inspiration and encouragement from Rick!

In early May, I had the privilege of working with Rick and achieved a remarkable weight loss of nearly 30 pounds in just two weeks. The entire process was not only effective but also enjoyable. The meal plans Rick recommended were both delicious and easy to prepare. Additionally, the app provided a seamless and user-friendly experience, making it a pleasure to track progress. Overall, Rick is by far the best trainer I have ever worked with, and I would rate his guidance a solid 10/10.

Rick has been a great help getting me started on a regular workout. Recently, we’ve scheduled a session to change up my routine. Can’t wait. I now look forward to my gym days. Thanks Rick.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Working with Richard Carson at Just Start has truly changed my life. At 67 years old, I never imagined I’d be able to lose 145 pounds — but with Richard’s help, I did exactly that.

He was kind, patient, and gentle every step of the way, never pushing too hard but always encouraging me to keep going. Richard tailored everything to fit me — from weight lifting goals to personalized protein and nutrition targets. He even helped with recipes that made eating healthy enjoyable and sustainable.

Richard doesn’t just train bodies — he transforms lives. If you’re thinking about making a change, no matter your age or fitness level, I can’t recommend Just Start and Richard Carson enough. He helped me believe in myself again, and I’m forever grateful. It doesn’t matter where you live he will work with on line with you , he has videos showing how to do the exercises. Cheryal

Rick and JS Fitness have been great! 4 months ago I started a regular workout routine that was tailored to work with some of my physical challenges and personal preferences. Rick has been supportive, encouraging, and a great motivator! Rick has done a great job staying connected with his clients on a regular basis by posting food/other helpful tips on social media and his app is user friendly! I highly recommend reaching out to him to start your journey!

Life-Changing Experience!

I can’t say enough good things about JustStart Fitness and Rick Carson! When I first started, I was struggling with a back injury and needed to lose weight. Thanks to Rick’s incredible guidance, encouragement, and personalized training plans, I’ve lost 60 lbs and—most importantly—gained my strength, confidence, and mobility back.

Rick truly cares about his clients and takes the time to understand your goals, limitations, and progress. His approach is motivating without being intimidating, and he always emphasizes proper form and safety (especially important with my back). I never thought I’d look forward to working out!

If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, supportive, and results-driven trainer, I highly recommend Rick and JustStart Fitness. He has helped me change my life!
