BRAD BUTCHER - CO-OWNER / Ninja Coach / Competitor
I am 55 years old and believe age is only a number. Over the last twenty years I let myself fall into the poor nutrition and bad habit role gaining lots of weight and being lazy. Four years ago after my third back surgery I decided to make a healthy life style change through good nutrition and exercise. I have spent three years developing exercise program that helps me and my body as I age, which has led me to starting a Ninja Warrior Gym. I have found that using more full body exercises over specific weight training works better for keeping my body in shape.Obstacle training takes less time and has better results than lifting. I have lost over 40 lbs and feel that i am in better shape now than i ever have been. I decided to open a Ninja Gym so kids of all ages have the opportunity to learn how to be fit without having to go to a gym to work out, why not go to a gym to have fun instead and have the same results. I am here to show everyone that no matter your age you can be fit.

After years of living an unhealthy lifestyle I decided to make a change. Through fitness and nutrition education I was able to lose 40+ lbs and regain my energy. Ninja has changed my life building Strength and Confidence in myself. This was my drive for starting Four Star Ninja Academy with Brad. I want to share what I have learned and provide a fun yet challenging way to train for people of all ages and abilities. I have competed and a number of different ninja competitions gaining more experience at each one. I have had the pleasure of coaching kids and adults helping to develop skills they did not believe they had. The best part of Ninja is the sport and supportive community that comes with it.
