Darrell “iAmTheRealDP” Patterson is an international fitness trainer and nutrition specialist who has been changing lives one pound at a time. He is originally from Cleveland, OH, but currently re-sides in Atlanta, GA. Patterson’s beginnings as a personal trainer were grounded in his first company, Raising the Bar Fitness, and in recent years, he has made leaps and bounds in the fitness and personal training arenas. He has since evolved that business into his signature personal training la-bel and company, Hardcore Extreme Active Training (H.E.A.T.). The newest addition to Patterson’s family of businesses is HX Fitness Inc., an all-encompassing exercise facility. HX Fitness Inc. provides a variety of personal training and fitness services to the community with Patterson’s H.E.A.T. con-cept serving as the crux of the facility’s functionality. As founder, owner, and CEO of H.E.A.T. and HX Fitness Inc., Patterson’s mission is to inspire and motivate men, women, and children to live a healthier lifestyle. Adding to his multiple business ventures, Patterson is now CEO of a ShedFat which is a healthy lifestyle nutritional supplement brand. He manages to tie together all these hats to his life's motto, which he also applies to his passion of fitness training, is, “We Will Either Find a Way or Make One.”

Patterson earned two Bachelor of Science degrees, one in Technology Management and the other in Marketing, from the University of Findlay. He next embarked upon working eight years in the corporate setting. Starting out as an athlete from childhood, he has always been drawn to and loved fitness and physical activity. He discovered a natural affinity for and excelled at playing basketball, in which he was voted an All American Athlete. Patterson decided to answer his true calling to fitness after leaving the corporate world. The passion he lived with for most of his life was ignited; thus, choosing to take on a brand new career as a fitness trainer.

Patterson is a certified American Muscle & Fitness Personal Trainer. He specializes in a number of different training methods such as Athletics Training, Cross Fit, High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), Muscle Building, and Weight Loss. Patterson’s exclusive H.E.A.T. fitness program is a uniquely orchestrated grouping of exercises in which the body exerts itself to its extreme capacity for 30 minutes non-stop. The signature workout includes a "resting" exercise to keep the heart rate in-creased which allows the body to burn the maximum amount of body fat in a short amount of time. H.E.A.T. is now taught exclusively at Patterson’s exercise facility, HX Fitness, Inc. Also as a result of his expertise, hard work, and dedication in developing this strategic program, Patterson’s online H.E.A.T. Challenge is a tremendous success. The H.E.A.T. Challenge is the go to choice as one of the top programs for people who look for a diverse online wellness and fitness program that delivers the results promised.
