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 as well as weight loss. 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 behavior change, kettlebells, basic nutrition, weightlifting, Crossfit, corrective exercises, and more. Today, after moving to Atlanta, Hendrigo continues to provide world-class health coaching and personal training through online sessions, online programming through his phone app, and personal training remotely or in-person from his studio.

Hendrigo’s fitness journey commenced in South America at the age of 17 with a fascination for weights. His passion deepened at 21 when he immersed himself in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu which is a self-defense martial art that focuses only on submission. Recognizing the pivotal role of strength and technique in achieving success in sports, he harnessed these elements to triumph in national competitions, earning some medals. In 2006, Hendrigo realized it was time to wrap up his personal experience and begin to transform the lives of others in America. He then moved out of Brazil to the United States to pursue his dream as a personal trainer. 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 in his clients.
