“Exercise is the key not only to physical health but to peace of mind”
What are you looking to do? What are your goals? How are you feeling?
While some clubs focus on equipment or on exercises, our Team focuses on you and on listening, so we can understand your hopes, your goals and your needs. Once we understand you, we can start to help you. While some "match you with a personal trainer," we bring our unique Team Approach, which adds the combined knowledge and experience of our entire Team to your exercise program.
Fitness Evaluation
To best design your individualized fitness program and set short and long term goals, we conduct a thorough seven-part evaluation including Health/Injury History Evaluation, a Cardiorespiratory Submaximal Test, Blood Pressure Test, Body Composition Analysis, Muscular Strength Tests, Static Flexibility Tests and Postural Analysis.
Stretch Sessions (Trainer Stretching)
The body requires more force to stretch it than to strengthen it. Similar to Thai Massage, we will work with you through a series of trainer-assisted stretches specifically suited for your needs. These sessions will help you relax, improve flexibility, muscular balance, posture and pain-free range of motion, reduce pain, and prevent back and other orthopedic problems.
Cardio 1-1's
Do you have trouble finding time to get your cardio in? Is it hard for you to push yourself doing cardio alone? Do you find cardio boring? Need a little motivation to do your cardio? If you answered "yes" to any or all of these questions, then FitnessWise has an answer for you. Cardio 1-1's are similar to personal strength training 1-1's, but we'll lead you through an exciting, challenging, customized cardio routine instead.
Are you bored with the same routine day in and day out? Do you feel like you have hit a plateau in your usual workouts? Spice things up a bit with our suspension training system, the TRX! These 1-1 TRX training sessions build true functional strength, improve overall flexibility, refine balance and enhance core stability all at once. Whether for the playing field or for a life on the go, TRX Training will help you safely and rapidly improve your fitness, regardless of age or fitness level.
