I'm Ricardo Araújo, I'm 28 years old and I've been working in fitness for over 5 years. Throughout this journey, I found more than a profession — I found a true passion for helping people transform their lives.
I believe training goes far beyond aesthetics. It's about building a strong mind, healthy habits and a positive relationship with yourself. That's why my focus isn't just on physical results, but also on each client's personal growth.
Nothing gives me more satisfaction than seeing someone recover their confidence, their smile and their self-love.
I work with close, safe and personalised support adapted to each person, respecting their pace and their goals. In every session, I aim to provide an effective, motivating and unique training experience.
More than a trainer, I want to be someone who accompanies, supports and challenges you to give your best — consistently and sustainably.
Ready to start thinking about yourself and your health?
It's not just about training — it's about strengthening body and mind with training idealized and designed with you in mind.
May joy be a constant throughout this adventure.
Your transformation starts here.
“Results speak for themselves. Every transformation is a story of dedication, commitment and a great desire to grow.”

I started working with Ricardo to recover from an injury, and now I can't stop training with him, the progress I've made has been incredible. The results came faster than I expected, and his positive energy makes every session genuinely enjoyable—it doesn't even feel like a workout. His good mood is contagious, and he keeps you motivated the whole time. I couldn't recommend him more!
Ricardo is an excellent trainer, and a good friend. He's consistently engaged during sessions and genuinely invested in my progress, which has been highly motivating for me.
From the moment I started, I realised he was the right person to improve not only my physical appearance, but also the struggles and the way I felt about my body. He's very dedicated and understanding, always giving his best to improve every day as a person and as a PT, I consider him a super reliable and honest person, as well as a great advisor.
Have questions?
Do I need gym experience?+
No. Most of my clients start from scratch. The programme is built from your current level — whether beginner or advanced.
How does online training work?+
Every week you receive a training plan tailored to you, with videos for each exercise. I'm with you day to day through messages and, every week, we adjust the plan together — so you keep moving forward.
How soon will I see results?+
Most clients feel a difference in the first 3–4 weeks. Visible results typically appear between 6 and 12 weeks, depending on goals and consistency.
Do I need a gym or can I train at home?+
You can train in both settings. I adapt the plan to the equipment you have available — gym, home or outdoors.
How do I start? Is there any initial commitment?+
You start with a free physical assessment, no commitment. We talk about your goals, I assess your starting point and only then do we decide together the best path forward.
