Meet Miles Richards | Exercise Physiologist/Personal Trainer

We had the good fortune of connecting with Miles Richards and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Miles, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
I wanted to help people move more in their daily life and recover from nagging injuries. I also dont like the method of training most commercial gyms implore to get people to healthier versions of themselves. Lastly, I just wanted to avoid a 9 – 5

Alright, so for those in our community who might not be familiar with your business, can you tell us more?
I think what sets me apart from other health/fitness brands is that I focus on holistic health. From nutrition to movement, to mental health practice. Theres an entire curriculum based upon giving you a well rounded view of your health starting with the physical.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
First thing we’re doing is hitting up my favorite ramen spot (the name cannot be disclosed but if you go to Duluth I’m sure you’ll see plenty). Then we have to go to dave and busters because life is simple and so is Dave’s. Then we’ll walk up Stone Mountain. Id also find time to hit up lil 5 points and walk till we see a restaurant or something interesting to try

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
First Id recognize God who without I could do none if what Im doing today. Truly a humbling experience to be training this long and still making it everyday. Next, I’d recognize my cousin for getting us started with our brand of training. We started when I was in college and kept going from there. Also a shoutout to all the people who let me train them for free and trusted me to get them results as I work on and perfect my craft of helping people move better.
