About Patrick

Who am I and why is my opinion worth anything?

I give my background not to toot my own horn but to give insight as to who I am and how I’ve developed my belief system and methodology.

patrickMy name is Patrick Hitches and I am a USA Weightlifting Level II Senior Coach – educated directly under USA Olympic Games Weightlifting coach, Harvey Newton. I am a graduate of Nutrition Science & Exercise Physiology with a Didactic in Dietetics from the University of Cincinnati. I’ve been a trainer for 8 years and do all my on site training in the heart of Washington DC at a well established training studio, Evolution. I’ve coached at the collegiate level in sports performance and have competed in multiple bodybuilding shows. I passionately love what I do and have been building my body from the inside out for over 14 years.

I am of the lucky few that don’t work a day in my life because I do what I love. My sole goal in life professionally is to bring the most effective training and nutrition to those who choosetochange. I don’t claim to know everything, but I spend more time than most fitness guru’s, researching and staying up to date on the ever changing field of body composition and athletic performance.

I live what I preach.

As the years pass by, I constantly mature along this journey of unending dreams and aspirations to a “successful” life. At times, the path seems crystal clear with a continuous drive to live life to its full potential. Other moments, it’s as though the forces of life are not in my favor and the stress seems overbearing and unmanageable. Although the roller coaster of life can be challenging, my dream remains prominent. It’s the goal of a balanced lifestyle for all around me; a livelihood unlike the standard approach to living. My goals entail a future with a particular daily way of existence that incorporates work and play. I remain confident and patient, as I come closer to that goal everyday with every person I help.

I am a bit of an idealist, but a motivated one at that. I understand what lies beneath the surface of those seeking to change, but can’t get motivated. I have a dream to change the lives of all around me. This dream will be met one body at a time as I meet and help the many individuals that choosetochange.

Success begins with accepting reality… and completes with changing it.
