Free Consultation

  • During your free consultation, we will explore where you’ve been, where you are now, and what your goals are related to your health and fitness.
  • We will review your health and injury history and current status so I have a clear understanding of any limitations or concerns you may have.
  • We will discuss your day-to-day nutritional habits.
  • We will assess your movement, strength and body composition. This establishes our starting point and allows me to see how your body moves
  • We will create a realistic timeline that aligns with your goals.

Implementation

  • We’ll begin with foundational movements and exercises that will teach you how to “read” your body and establish sound movement patterns and muscle activation
  • Each session will build on the one prior so you can apply what you’ve learned while continuing to be challenged.
  • We’ll discuss opportunities for carryover of mobility and strength exercises so you can incorporate this into your daily routine.
  • Your training program will shift in focus every 4-6 weeks from stabilization to strength building to increased power to endurance.

And Of Course...

Re-Assessment

Every 4 weeks we’ll measure your progress, re-evaluate your goals and modify your training program accordingly.
