Ron Henderson

For More Information Call: 651-735-2080

“The Fitness King” began his pursuit of personal fitness training almost three decades ago. Henderson, now 53, made a commitment to health at a young age. He says, “One day I noticed a well-dressed man drive up in a beautiful, gleaming Porsche. When he stepped out, however, he had a body more like a Volkswagen. I realized fitness was something of true value. After all, if you don’t have your health, money doesn’t matter. I had been working out and I realized my body was something great no one could take away from me. No one could repossess my body like cars are repossessed. I could have a body like a Porsche, a Jaguar, you name it. I just had to keep caring about myself and my health.”

Author of, “What is it Worth for You to Become Physically Fit” Henderson was the first fitness professional in the Minneapolis – St. Paul area to work with clients and help them define, develop, and pursue their fitness goals as a personal trainer. He stresses the value of personalized fitness routines to develop solid techniques and maximize potential. He also co-hosts with local celebrity Mark Rosen of WCCO TV, Fan Fitness Sundays on KFAN radio, which airs in the spring.

Testimonials:

“Thanks to Ron my staff is energized and thinking about how their health impacts all facets of their life. You touched many people with a message that will stay with them for a long time to come.”
Wade Davis, COO, Financial Recovery Services MN.

You have changed my life forever by redefining ‘the quality of life’. Before I met you, my lifestyle was centered on Profit and Loss as I started Granite City from scratch in 2000, and essentially dedicated all my time and attention to “growing the business”. As such, words like PASSION, TENACITY, SACRIFICE, DRIVE, HEALTH, REPETITION, PERFORMANCE, EXECUTION, BENEFITS, STAMINA and BALANCED RESULTS were all words that described my dedication to the success and expansion of my healthy business today.
They were, however not the words I used to define the health of my body, Now after having heard you speak on fitness several times, I now have a great understanding of health, fitness and as you say “ balancing the checkbook of life and health” . I feel energized, rejuvenated, and younger than I ever have before. And most of all, I understand the merits of maintaining a balanced life. Now those words above describe how I manage my business and fitness life.I look forward to the next 25 years of work and fitness and more motivating speeches.

Through my job at WCCO Television over the past 30-plus years, I’ve had the chance to be involved with and exposed to some of the most dynamic individuals in sports and other walks of life
I would be hard pressed to find someone who’s personal message and passion could match that of Ron Henderson.
I recently saw first hand the effect Ron’s powerful spirit and commitment to personal health and fitness had on a group he spoke to at a gathering at a Minneapolis hotel. I sensed, as a group they were initially reluctant to “buy” into any message of the value of health and wellness goals over personal financial goals.
But within minutes, I could see that skepticism melt away on their faces. Ron Henderson talks from the heart. His speech came from the heart, not from a bunch of well rehearsed notes. He lives what he believes and whether an individual was already in a workout program or hadn’t exercised in years, his message was well received at every corner of the room.
More than ever, Ron Henderson’s words need to be heard. He knows we are a society that has an epidemic of childhood obesity that often leads to adult diseases. Keeping ones vitality, no matter your age, is Ron’s crusade.He has personally meant everything to me. I know at age 55, and in a business staying vibrant on television is paramount to connecting to your viewers, Ron Henderson has given me the motivation to stay the course for the rest of my life.
Mark Rosen, Sports Director –WCCO T.V. (CBS)

I can't tell you enough how much you brought to the event on Saturday. It was simply a joy having you there and I have heard over and over again from participants how much they enjoyed having you there. You were definitely a highlight. Your message was awesome as well and fit so well with the event and the overall message the ADA tries to provide for people. I could just go on and on.
Britt N. Guild, Associate Manager, American Diabetes Association, Parkdale Center, St. Louis Park, MN

Recently, I attended a corporate event at a large Minneapolis hotel with Ron Henderson as the keynote speaker. This was a business in which most employees had desk jobs and it was Mr. Henderson's task that day to help the attendees honestly evaluate their personal level of physical fitness and motivate them to make fitness a priority in their lives.

Mr. Henderson's approach is to evaluate physical fitness in much the same way most people evaluate their financial fitness. It is an approach all in attendance could easily grasp! Just as most people understand that planning for a secure financial future requires you to save something out of each check, the same holds true of planning for a healthy future. If you are not physically fit, you will not enjoy the benefits of being fiscally fit. Paying yourself first applies in both cases.

Mr. Henderson's presentation was a high energy mix of humor, stories from his personal journey to fitness and engaging with people in the audience. It was the kind presentation that kept everyone's attention and even drew in hotel employees and others in the hotel that day. They heard Mr. Henderson's presentation through the auditorium doors and came in and stood in the back of the room. It was a full house of excited and energized people!
