HOLD IT!  You may be exercising wrong!

Do machine-based movements dominate your workout routine?

Do you perform the same cardio workout over and over again?

Are you neglecting balancing out your body's strength & flexibility?

Is a lack of "core" integrity hampering your progress?

Do you feel that you are not fully realizing your body's potential?

It's time for you to make a change!

 

RESULTS-BASED

People enlist the help of fitness professionals because they want results, plain and simple.  Those results may mean body fat loss, recovery from injury, improved self-concept, increased strength, or a stronger more stable core.  The results you seek may be something completely different!  Results are specific to each individual, and are brought about through planning.  Goal-setting is imperative in any exercise program.  After all, why put forth the time and effort when you don’t get anything in return?  My job is to help you to set attainable, realistic goals and then follow through with a plan of action to reach them. 

 

As it was once said, “if you fail to plan, you plan to fail.”  Set a goal, work towards it, and realize your potential! 

 

INTEGRATED

A well-rounded, integrated fitness program can be viewed as the “finished puzzle” that is composed of several interdependent “pieces.”  Your level of fitness and individual characteristics will determine your rate of progression as well as emphasis on specific training outcomes.  The days of traditional, bodybuilding-style workouts are long gone. 

Through an innovative, more intelligent approach to each workout, you will not only progress faster towards your goals, but stay motivated and challenged as well.

PHYSIQUE

Webster defines the physique as being “the form or structure of a person’s body.”  Let’s face it – we all want to look our best, as a great deal of our self-concept is tied to our appearance.  The human body is the most intricate, well-designed machine known to man.  Picture a sports car, such as a Ferrari, parked next to a Hummer.  Both vehicles have distinctively different chassis.  Human bodies come in all shapes and sizes.  Some of us are Ferraris, while others are Hummers!  Every one of us has a unique “chassis” that must withstand the test of everyday life and all its demands.  We fitness professionals view the human body as one functional unit, often called the “kinetic chain.”  The kinetic chain is comprised of the soft tissue system (muscle, ligament, tendon, and fascia), neural system, and articular system.  Each system must work in synergy with the others to allow structural and functional efficiency.  If any of the systems do not work efficiently, compensations and adaptations occur in the other systems which can lead to overload, decreased performance, and injury.  

 

It doesn’t matter if you have a Hummer-body or a Ferrari-body - why not train your body to look and perform at its best?

 

TRAINING

No two people are the same, therefore, why would they be following the same exercise program?  Having been in the fitness industry for over ten years, I find it unsettling that an alarming number of Personal Trainers simply do not have the working knowledge, expertise, and experience required to design and implement safe and effective programs for their clients.  Not only does this put people's safety at risk, but it also is a waste of their time and money.  Many trainers are content to waste their client’s sessions by turning their paid time into “social hour” and playing the role of “rep counter.”  If this is what you are seeking from a Personal Trainer, then perhaps I am not the one for you!  I am passionate about what I do, and this shows in my desire to exceed the expectations of my clients.  

 

In my opinion, a fitness professional's role demands going above and beyond the standard expectations - truly serving a purpose in facilitating positive change in people's lives.  Fitness professionals "wear many hats," so to speak - we are experts in enhancing physical performance, we are educators, and we are motivators.  I also believe that true fitness professionals "walk the talk" by being living, breathing examples of good health. After all, if you can't implement sound health and fitness strategies into your own life, then how can you expect to help other people do the same?  I take great pride in my responsibilities as a fitness professional.
