Personal Start
This personal training program has you
meeting with a personal trainer for two hours. Your first hour will involve a complete fitness analysis in order to determine your current level of fitness. Based on your goals and the results of your analysis, your trainer will create a 6-week program custom-made for you. The second hour will be spent going
through your program to make sure you understand all of its components. You are then able to work out on your own during your six-week program.

Group Personal Training
The perfect fit for members who are ready to try personal training but not quite ready for the commitment of one-on-one and the related cost. The group will be limited to a minimum of 2 & a maximum of 4 participants. The program meets 2X/wk for a total of 14 sessions with a certified personal trainer. This program is the most
cost-efficient method of personal training. Take your training to the next level!

Fitness 4 Life
This is a 10-week personal training program. You will meet with your trainer 2 times each week for 10 consecutive weeks. Along with the in-depth one-on-one that you’ll get with your trainer you will receive a log-book filled with pages that you and your trainer will use to keep you on track and motivated. This program is an exceptional way to use personal training to help you achieve your desired goals in regards to your health and well-being. This program is also a cost-efficient way to use personal training for 20 sessions (2X/wk for 10 wks).

Body Composition Analysis
You can set up your private appointment
with a certified personal trainer to accurately determine your body fat percentage and lean body weight. You will have the option of using either the electrical impedance method or the skinfold caliper method. This will give you a baseline so that you can properly determine fitness improvements…changes in body weight do not give the clear picture!
