As a renowned dance photographer and creator of Dance As Art- The New York City Photography Project, celebrity New York City personal trainer, Kevin Richardson has trained dozens of dancers over the course of his career and his involvement in the dance world gives him a unique perspective into the needs of today’s dancers. Most dancers need to increase their strength while also transforming their body to a sculpted and lean physique but have little in the way of time for hours of training in the gym in addition to the uncountable hours spent dancing. Kevin’s Naturally Intense High Intensity 10 Minute Workouts solve this problem as the workouts last for only 10 minutes and need to be done only three times a week. Leaving the dancer free to focus more on dancing while still receiving the benefits of training. Online Personal Training and Diet Coaching with Trainer Kevin Richardson and his team of trainers is also available.
Diet is a key factor in the success of any training program and special care is given to recommendations based on healthy eating and balance as opposed to extreme dietary practices. Not only do we train dancers, one of our trainers, Erika Citrin is also a professional dancer and living proof that you can indeed do more in less time and achieve a stunning physique without resorting to any extreme dietary practices.
The prevailing concept of sports specificity states that the best way to train for any activity is to continuously repeat that activity however as a result most athletes walk a fine line between overtraining and inadequate recovery that ultimately leads a a decrease in performance. Thankfully more and more evidence is proving the contrary and that brief high intensity workouts are superior to prolonged sub-maximal exercise training.
For the past 28 years New York City Personal Trainer Kevin Richardson has used his Naturally Intense High Intensity 10 Minute Workouts™- to help dancers transform their bodies and also increase their strength, speed, explosiveness, power and endurance thus allowing them the luxury of spending less time in the gym and more time in the field mastering their craft.
The One Food I Eat Every Day to Stay Lean and Muscular!
I don`t believe in the idea of superfoods, but if there was a superfood, one of them would have to be oat bran cereal!
I eat it every day with breakfast (and I always have breakfast) and it is an invaluable part of my diet!
I take in a lot of fiber, 35 grams a day, and oat bran cereal has more fiber than regular or steel cut oats.
It also goes a long way in helping reduce cravings and has been an effective part of my weight loss strategy for my clients for many years!
It really works to keep those end of day cravings at bay and in a fitness environment where it`s all about protein, fats and carbs, it`s important to remember how important fiber is for overall health.
Everything from cancer and heart disease prevention and it even helps reduce the incidence of depression.
And best of all it`s naturally gluten free and works for vegans and omnivores and most people prefer its taste to oatmeal.
So pick up some, add it to your diet , let me know how it goes and as always, Excelsior!!! #naturallyintense

Biceps shot!
When someone says, "Show me your muscles!"
It`s not a call to see your hamstrings, your lats or your delts, it`s all about your biceps!
And I remember having arms that were just painfully thin and the first day, after years of training that someone said, "Show me your muscles", and they were actually impressed by what they saw.
It took years.
Not weeks, not months, years!
And during those years there was always the sense of not getting anywhere, as progress as a natural athlete is always slower than you might expect (especially as a teenager!)
But I hung in there and the lesson behind it is to always keep going!!!
Too many fail to reach their potential or turn to drugs out of a sense that they don`t have what it takes, when it`s really a matter of needing more work and more time.
So stay the course, believe in the Path, know that I believe in you and as always, Excelsior!!! #naturallyintense

Build Muscle In Less Time!
For the past 34 years I have been training with what I call Naturally Intense High Intensity Training- with workouts lasting 10, 15 to max 20 minutes just three times a week.
To many it may sound like some form of maintenance training or something that just works for me and it isn`t!
It`s what helped me go from being a skinny teenager to being able to compete successfully as a natural bodybuilder, but more importantly, it`s helped hundreds of men and women realize their goals over the past three decades of my career as a trainer.
It`s groundbreaking as the number one reason for people not training is LACK OF TIME- and with this form of training, time is no longer an issue!
If you would like to learn more visit my website, check out my YouTube channel or simply reach out, as I am always more than happy to talk about it!
Thanks for taking the time to look at my work and as always, Excelsior!! #naturallyintense

High Intensity Training: 80lb Kevin Flyes for 6 Reps!
Last set and going all out on this flye variation that my clients like to call "Kevin flyes."
It starts in the press position and you push up while rotating the dumbbells so they end with palms facing you.
Unlike a regular flye, it maintains tension in your chest muscles throughout the movement and also creates a strong contraction in your sternal pectorals.
This was the last set and I fought hard for the last one!
Give it a try next time you train chest and as always, Excelsior!!! #naturallyintense

You Don`t Need Protein Right After A Workout To Build Muscle!
Over the course of almost 36 years of training, I have seldom ever had protein within a half an hour of training.
I don`t consume protein shakes, and for the four years that I did when I was having them immediately after training, my notes revealed absolutely no increases in strength or muscle size compared to when I was not using them.
It`s a myth that goes a long way in selling protein shakes and protein bars, but the reality is that you can make gains as long as you are getting the protein you need. (Which, by the way, isn`t an exorbitant amount!)
Thanks for watching and as always, Excelsior!!! #naturallyintense
