| Special needs Training |
Special needs refers to anyone whose
program needs special adjustments for any
reason: Injury, illness recovery, pre and post-
natal, during pregnancy, confidence, or just
needing additional attention.

| Core & Stabilization Training |
Your core is divided into three sections that all work
together to allow for freedom of motion without injury:
pelvic stability; rib cage stability and scapular (shoulder
blade) stability. All sections of the core are in your trunk,
providing a stable base for the movement of your arms,
legs and spine. Core training is not just about abdominal
strength; training core means strengthening 29 muscles
in a specific manner which teaches them to stabilize
against tension.

| Cardiovascular & Endurance |
Cardiovascular fitness is the ability of
the heart, lungs and circulatory system to
take in oxygen and transport it to the
working muscles where it can efficiently
exchanged and utilized. We include a
VO2 test to obtain an accurate anaerobic
threshold heart rate for you to use in
training.

| Functional Training |
Functional training is a method of exercise which involves training the body for
the activities performed in daily life. Functional training may lead to better muscular
balance and joint stability, possibly impacting the number of injuries sustained and
individual's performance in a sport or on the job. The benefits may arise from the
use of training that emphasizes the body's natural ability to move in three
anatomical planes of motion In comparison, though machines can often be safer to
use, they restrict movements to a single plane of motion, which is an unnatural form
of movement for the body and may potentially leads to faulty movement patterns or
injury.

| Flexibility & Range of Motion Training |
Flexibility is the range of motion through a
joint. All joints have an “adequate” range of
motion that allow for freedom of movement
and yet are tight enough to ensure joint
stability. We identify joints that have
inadequate range and develop a flexibility
program for those joints.

| Balance, Proprioception & Coordination Training |
Proprioception refers to the ability of the proprioceptors,
which are located within joints, muscles and tendons, to sense
pressure and tension. They then relay this information
concerning muscle dynamics to the conscious and
subconscious parts of the central nervous system. This is then
interpreted by the brain into kinesthetic sense, a conscious
awareness of the body in three-dimensional space.
Proprioception in it’s purest form is the ability of the body to
right itself when unstable. Balance and coordination are the
result of good proprioception, kinesthetic sense, and muscular
strength.

“Pilates is complete coordination of body, mind, and
spirit. Pilates develops the body uniformly, corrects wrong
postures, restores physical vitality, invigorates the mind, and
elevates the spirit. One of the major results of Pilates is
gaining mastery of your mind over the complete control of your
body. Patience and persistence are vital qualities in the
ultimate successful accomplishment of any worthwhile
endeavor.”

| Nutrition Weight Loss & Weight Managmemt |
With all the diet info out there, it all comes down to a
simple formula of calories in vs calories out. With ample
water intake, balanced nutrition consisting of healthy
proteins, carbohydrates and fats and consistent exercise,
weight control can actually be in your control. All of our
training packages include a resting metabolic test which
calculates your daily caloric requirements. With this
information, we can specifically design a nutritional plan
that supplements your workout plan.

| Sport Therapy & Post Injury Rehabilitation |
Athletes and non-athletes alike can get the weekend
warrior syndrome, where you just over do it, resulting in an
injury. Minor muscular strains, joint sprains, tendonitis, and
bone stress fractures fall into this category. Sport therapy
keeps your training while on the mend. Post injury
rehabilitation is when your injury was more serious, taking
you out of the game for a while. We can provide continued
rehabilitation, coming from a physical therapist, and taking
you back into competition.

Strength endurance training: the goal is to enhance
stabilization endurance while increasing prime mover strength.
Hypertrophy training :is designed for individuals who have goal
of maximal muscular growth. Maximal strength training works
toward the goal of maximal prime mover strength by lifting heavy
weights.
Power level training: should only be entered after Successfully
completion of the two previous training blocks. This block of
training emphasizes the development of speed and power.

| Resting Metabolic Test |
RMR: your resting metabolic rate. This
is the number we measure that is
unique to you. It is the number of
calories you would burn if you sat in a
chair all day long.
Lifestyle: your RMR is used to calculate
how much more you probably burn by
your simple daily activities of walking,
eating, driving, etc.
Exercise: RMR is used to calculate how
many calories you would burn if you
exercised moderately for 30 minutes.

VO2 testing is the most complete fitness
assessment available. This test allows
your trainer to customize a workout based
on your unique fitness level instead of a
"one-size-fits-all" formula. By training in
your personalized Intensity Zones, you'll
see results you never thought possible.

| Body Fat Testing |
We use a 3 and 7 site skin fold
test to determine percent body fat.
Along with BMI, a height/weight
calculation, and percent body fat,
we take circumference
measurements to provide you with
an accurate account of where you
are now and where you're going.
