Ron McDonald Jr. - a Fitness Professional with a passion for health and wellness that has
driven me throughout my life. I was very active as a kid and continue to stay active as adult to this day forward. I participated in a lot of sports as
kid and in high school such as football and basketball. I even had the opportunity to compete in the NJCAA (JUCO) playing basketball at Montgomery
College Germantown in Maryland.
Even as very active youth fitness wasn't my only love, I first was enthusiastic about computers and technology.
So for the last 11 years I have been working in corporate america as Internet Systems Engineer. All while doing this I still had love for fitness, but
dreaded the daily 9 to 5 and constant sitting for long hours. I would use my lunch break to go to the gym. In the gym on my lunch break with other
coworkers is where I rediscovered my love for fitness and health. I didn't want to continue down this path. So I set out on a mission.
My mission is to empower and educate individuals with the necessary information, tools, and know-how to make health and exercise a staple in their
lives. The growing rate of obesity and morbid obesity from children to adults within our society due to our eating habits and daily lifestyles, I feel
its time for a change. I want to be a part of that change. I look to accomplish this by helping people exercise and make more healthy food choices,
which lead to a healthy lifestyle where they are in control.
I am currently working out of World Gym Bowie and Laurel in the state of Maryland. If you are in the area and looking to work with a Personal Trainer
to help you make a change in your life, stop by and ask for Ron and I would love to work with you. Click here to get started now
