Necessary for a safe and effective training program to be designed and for results and progress to be accurately measured. An important part of any responsible training program, a fitness assessment objectively measures your current level of physical fitness. Without an effective starting point growth cannot be accurately measured. Our fitness assessment incorporates many different methods so we can achieve accurate results. Our assessment measures:

• Body Fat %
• BMI (Body Mass Index)
• Physical endurance
• Muscle strength
• Workout History
• Medical History
• Diet History
• Muscle Movement Patterns
• Diagnosis of Muscle Imbalances

How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. What do you really want? You are going to get whatever it is you really want. I will help you set goals and reach them.

I hold you accountable, helping you create a routine and better habits to ensure lasting change. You will be completely revitalized by my program! My unique approach will help you transform both body and mind. Let’s face it, most trainers just watch you exercise. If you want to achieve real, long lasting results, you must do more than exercise your body. You need to exercise your mind as well.

Nutrition Counseling

Together we will develop a plan for healthy eating. We will determine the vitamins and minerals that are required for your optimum health. I will guide you through the process and help you get through hurdles along the way. I have a Custom Diet Plan (that I created) that will guarantee you results! If you’re on a specific diet I will show you how to customize it to work with the system so you can track it. This isn’t some quick-fix approach. It’s based on the universally-accepted science and basic math that nutritionists agree to. Because your diet is of utmost important I include it with all of our training packages.

Mental Coaching

Are you an athlete? We can incorporate mental skills training into your fitness program. Benefits include enhanced performance, increased enjoyment, and greater self-satisfaction. Mental skills training refers to the systematic and consistent practice of mental or psychological skills. Our methods and techniques come from a variety of sources including mainstream psychology, research or elite athletes and experiences of coaches and athletes. Most personal trainers, and even athletic coaches, are not trained in this skill set. Some of the most useful mental skills cited include :

• arousal regulation (ability to control emotions including stress/anxiety)
• visualization and mental preparation
• confidence building
• attention and concentration
• self talk
• mental plans (creation and management of)
• goal setting
• leadership and communication
  

Continually monitor progress with ongoing assessments and adjust as necessary so you are achieving your goals. An important part of the process is tracking results. Many trainers do this only once every few months—this is way too long to wait in my opinion. This is often neglected because assessments take time to do. However, to maximize your progress, we need to continually monitor and adjust your program. And you need to be aware of when your diet, or vacations, or weekends, or whatever is the cause of your lack of progress. This cannot be done effectively without proper monitoring and ongoing assessments. We continually tailor your program so that you are getting what you need to achieve your goals.
