Hendrigo’s professional experience in the fitness industry spans almost 20 years. In 2006 he joined Bally Total Fitness in Boston, a leading American fitness center, where he refined his skills as a professional trainer. After a great stint at Bally, in 2010, he furthered his career at Boston Sports Club, where he won awards as a top performer and earned the high distinction of Master Trainer. For five years at BSC, he specialized in strength and cross-training as well as weight loss for medical reasons. In 2016, he realized a lifelong dream and launched his own business called HMC Fitness, serving clients throughout the Boston area and beyond. His many certifications in health coaching and personal training are related to kettlebells, basic nutrition, Crossfit, corrective exercise, and more. Today, after moving to Atlanta – where he lives with his wife and son- Hendrigo continues to provide world-class health coaching and personal training. He welcomes all ages, including a specialized program for seniors, and enjoys serving clients in person or remotely from his fitness studio.

Hendrigo’s fitness journey commenced in Brazil at the age of 17 with a fascination for weights. His passion deepened at 21 when he immersed himself in Jiu-jitsu which is a self-defense martial art that focuses only on submission without hurting opponents. Recognizing the pivotal role of strength and technique in achieving success in sports, he harnessed these elements to triumph in national competitions, earning first place medals. In 2006, Hendrigo realized it was time to rap into personal experience and begin to transform the lives of others. He then moved out from Brazil to America to pursue his dream as a personal trainer. So, equipped with his robust background and boundless enthusiasm, he started his professional career. While HMC Fitness continues to grow, Hendrigo continues to advance in his profession, attending workshops, devouring relevant literature, and furthering his certifications. What has not changed is his dedication to personalized services with dramatic results.
