Rich & Shelly Duncan

Owners

Rich and Shelly have been fitness enthusiasts for the past 10 years. Rich Duncan is the founder and owner of Rich Duncan Construction, Inc. . He constructed two other Fitness Together locations in Oregon. This allowed Rich and Shelly to see and experience the awesome and unique one on one private personal training environment, as well as the professional and supportive FT franchise Corporation. This inspired them to open the first location in Salem. Having a successful business encouraged them to want to create another successful business, one in which they can help and give back to the community in a very individual and personal way. Fitness Together allows Rich and Shelly the opportunity to help others reach their goals and make positive changes in their lives
