"What
is the advantage of working with Living Strong Fitness Training
instead of just working on my own?"
- Professional
and experienced guidance, motivation and encouragement to
help you get fit quickly and safely. - Let's face it,
if you had the knowledge and motivation to get in shape
on your own, you would be doing it already, and wouldn't
need our help. But most people need help, and they are wise
to seek a competent professional to help get fit. When your
car is broken, you take it to the best mechanic you can
find to get fixed. When you are sick, you go see the doctor.
When you want to make positive health and fitness changes
in your life, you see a fitness professional! Living Strong
will make sure you receive timely encouragement, instruction,
and motivation to keep you on track.
- You
will have the complete health screening and personal evaluation
of your fitness and medical profile, and ongoing fitness
consultation for your exercise program - In order to
know how to get where you are going, you have to have a
realistic idea of where you are right now, as well as a
detailed set of goals that you want to achieve from your
personal training sessions.
- You
don't have to spend years on your own, learning what we
already know! - There are so many facets to health and
fitness training, that it's hard to even put together a
brief list of the highpoints. Look at the Fitness/Nutrition
section of any bookstore or library and see how many books
you find on nutrition, exercise, and health in general.
We will teach you the things that you need to know about
nutrition, exercise, and a healthy lifestyle, while at the
same time explaining away the bogus myths about miracle
weight loss diets and other exercise programs that may not
be appropriate for you.
- And
finally, Your level of incentive and commitment - Not
only do you get a commitment from Living Strong Training,
but just as important is the commitment that you make to
YOURSELF. If you pay your money for something, your likelihood
of making good use of that purchase increases dramatically.
You have the incentive to follow through because of the
financial as well as the personal accountability.
"How
is Living Strong Fitness Training different than other personal
trainers?"
While
many fitness centers offer exercise instruction and some sort
of personal training, Living Strong offers COMPREHENSIVE
FITNESS TRAINING based on your individual needs and goals.
Living Strong Training includes:
-
Wellness evaluation
- Your
individual medical and exercise history profile
-
Physician's consent
-
Comprehensive metabolic, circumference and body fat measurements
-
Body Mass Index profile
-
Custom designed exercise instruction and program design
based on your individual needs.
-
Caloric requirement calculations
-
Nutritional and diet program design and monitoring
-
Ongoing monitoring of fitness levels and strength gains
- Certified,
insured, experienced professional guidance and instruction
The
Living Strong total package of health and fitness assures
you of safe and effective success in achieving your optimum
body shape and fitness levels.
"How
much does it cost for Living Strong Fitness Training?"
While
the cost of exercise instruction at a local gym or club will
range from $25 for a 30 minute session to over $100 per session,
your personally designed Living Strong Comprehensive Fitness
Training Program costs about the same as dinner and a
movie, from $25 to $65 for a full 50 minute session, based
on single or partner training,
location, length of contract, and frequency of training sessions.
You can also receive free training sessions for referrals.
The
overall cost of becoming fit, healthy and strong is an
investment in your life and future. Have you considered
the actual cost of not being fit? High blood pressure or cholesterol
medication, doctor and medical costs, lack of strength and
mobility, looking and feeling bad, illness and disease, loss
of quality of life, emotional and negative self image, joint
and comfort issues, long-term health risks, are the price
of not being fit.
Consider
this. If your car needs repair, you somehow figure out how
to get it fixed and pay for it because it is necessary.
If you lose a filling or crack a tooth, you will do whatever
it takes to get it taken care of because it has to be
done. If your body is not functioning as it should,
and the time has come to repair your health and fitness, getting
into shape is no longer an optional negotiable item.
It has to be done. Yes, it will cost you something, but you
have got to take charge, do it right, and do it now.
"Where
will personal training sessions be conducted?"
Most
of our clients enjoy training in our Living
Strong Private Studio. It is the ideal location, and enables
you to maximize your time, exercise in our comfortable and
private environment, and avoid the additional cost of gym
membership dues. Training sessions can also be conducted in
your home, or your favorite club or gym.
"How
long are the training sessions?" The
typical personal training sessions are about 50 minutes in
length.
"How frequent are the
training sessions?"
LIVING STRONG offers an individually tailored program to serve
the unique needs of each client. The number of training sessions
per week will vary per client and will be a function of your
individual needs and goals. Some clients choose two or three
training sessions per week, while other clients may only need
one session per week with the trainer.
"What
time of day are the training sessions?"
We will work out a training schedule that fits your
lifestyle. We'll work with your schedule to help carve out
a time in your busy day to help make your fitness and exercise
a top priority.
"What
types of clients do you work with?"
Every client is unique. Training sessions will be individualized
based on fitness level. Whether you are a beginner just getting
started, or a fitness enthusiast wanting to take your workout
to the next level, LIVING STRONG will develop a personalized
program focused on your goals and skill level.
"Do I need my own equipment?"
You will want some small freeweights to begin your workouts
at home between our training sessions, or you may prefer to
use a gym or club's equipment if you have access. When our
clients see the incredible results of training properly with
the simple freeweight equipment, they usually end up with
a small workout area of their own in their home.
Under our direction, many clients achieve a great level of
fitness with a minimal amount invested in equipment. Most
clients prefer to invest in a small home gym based on freeweights.
For about what you would pay for a one-year membership at
a club, you can have your own setup at home.
"How
much space is required for a home fitness area or a small
home gym?" An area about eight feet
by eight feet is usually all that is required.
"Are
group personal training rates an option?" Training
sessions also are available for couples and other small groups
(recruit a friend or two and have fun getting fit together!).
If you and your spouse or a workout partner would like to
have training sessions at the same time, there is a discount
for each of you as long as you continue to train together.
There are also group consultation rates available if you would
like Brian to come to your place of business or other gathering
to teach, train, or discuss health and fitness.
"What
if I just want to talk about getting started, but don't know
if I actually am ready for training sessions?"
Living
Strong offers a free initial consultation to qualified prospects,
in which we learn about your fitness goals, and you learn
about our training services.
In
addition If you would like some additional education about
fitness, exercise or nutrition, we also can provide a fitness
class to help you get started. This is a great opportunity
for a person or group of people to spend some time with Brian
to learn the basics of exercise, nutrition, and other aspects
of the fitness lifestyle before deciding whether or not to
purchase a package of personal training sessions. For many
people, this is the perfect first step toward a training program.

machines.
-

and set up a replacement time for your training session.

workout!

attention, ongoing help - When you train with Living
Strong, you receive focused personal professional attention
from our trainers. Our website and e-mail contact is always
