Frequently Asked Questions

A one-on-one training session normally lasts 45 minutes.  If we are working out in your home, I recommend you warm-up for at least 10 minutes prior to my arrival. If at a gym, I always recommend that my clients show up at least 10 minutes early in order to warm-up.  This prevents the loss of valuable training time.

Absolutely!  This is actually the very first training session.  This session, however, may last as long as 2 hours.   The orientation is where we get to know one another a little better.  All necessary forms and documents will be completed, i.e., medical history, exercise history, etc..  A complete body analysis will also be conducted.  It's here where we find out just how much lean tissue (muscle) you're carrying.  You will get more information in this session alone than in most other "trainers'" complete training programs!!

This is different for each client.  After the initial orientation a client assessment, which includes flexibility as well as muscular and cardiovascular strength and endurance, may be conducted.  After these first 2 sessions we can start to determine the best course of action in order to meet your fitness goals. You will learn everything you need to know for accomplishing your goals, whether at your home or gym, or my fitness center.  Your program will include strength, flexibility, and cardiovascular training.  You will learn the proper and safe way to work your muscles.  Nutritional guidelines will also be incorporated into your overall program.

This one is different for everyone as well.  I have some clients that have been with me for years and some just after a few sessions.  One big factor to consider is your budget.  I NEVER give a sales pitch.  I don't like getting them so I don't give them.  Most of my clients sign up for 1-2 sessions at a week.  Even though they love me, their budget may say otherwise.  This is totally understandable.  I give ALL my departing clients a workout routine so they can continue on a lifestyle of fitness.  Believe it or not,  I try to get rid of you as soon as possible!!  Wow, that was nasty!!!!  No, I don't mean it that way.  My main purpose and goal for my clients is to empower them so they can make the right decisions to keep up there fitness endeavors.  Some come back for a session a month just to get their routines updated and to ensure we're continually heading in the right direction.
