Hailing from the Chicagoland area, Bodybuilder Brandon Beckrich is a personal trainer, nutritional coach and founder of Paradigm of Personal Training.
Beckrich earned a degree in dietetics, kinesiology and exercise-science from the University of Illinois-Chicago (UIC), where he began to pursue bodybuilding.
Brandon’s passion is helping others change their life through improving their health. He’s been known as the motivator of many success stories. The key is being positive – your performance and what happens around you are a product of your inner thoughts. Be patient, practical and persistent. With any great goal comes a great amount of work. Just remember, whether you think you can, or you think you can’t, you’re right!
Brandon is known to be the most sought out personal trainer in the Chicagoland area. May of 2011 marked his 7th year in competitive bodybuilding. He began as a teen light heavyweight champion and now is battling it out on the national level as a super heavyweight. He has several titles to his name including Mr Indiana and many top 3 placings in regional competition.
He has been featured in several of the leading bodybuilding and fitness publications as well as their online training videos. Currently Brandon is a national level competitive bodybuilder, working toward an IFBB Pro Card. From there he plans be a successful pro and Mr Olympia one day. However, success is not measured by the number of wins but by what you contribute to the sport and the fans. Being an ambassador to the sport of bodybuilding is a big part of his goal to become an IFBB pro.
Brandon is a proud father to his 3-year-old son Jaxin. This is the single most important thing in his life. A lot of his motivation and drive comes from his son. As a single father, it’s not just you anymore, it’s all about him. The work that has been invested in his training business and competitive bodybuilding is geared to give Jaxin the best life possible.

An Interview with Brandon
Favorite Type of Training: Hard and Heavy and drop sets.
Favorite Cheat Food: I love a good burger.
Favorite Diet Food: Steak and Sweet Potato.
What's in your Gym Bag? Aminocore, Isoflex shake with waxy maize, my Vibram 5’s, and iPod.
What Do you Like to Do Outside the Gym? I don’t get much time outside the gym, especially since that is where my business is. When I do, I love to spend time with my son and girlfriend.
How Did you get into Fitness: I started out lifting in 8th grade for sports. Then I began to enjoy the training more than the actual sport I was training for. That’s how I came to bodybuilding
What Do you Love to Listen to when you Work Out: Rock, Alternative, little R&B, little rap. No country, just something with a good beat.
What Does Being an ALLMAX Sponsored Athlete Mean to You? There aren’t enough words to express how I feel about ALLMAX, but it’s something I take tremendous pride in. I feel so privileged to have had the opportunity to represent a company that has so much pride and integrity. It feels very much like a family owned company; you’re treated with respect and not just an athlete to put in advertisements. ALLMAX goes the extra mile to make sure all the products are of best quality, and have the utmost best interest in mind for the consumer as well as the athletes. I can honestly say that ALLMAX products have literally altered my physique. It’s a true privilege to be a part of the ALLMAX Team.
