Build Strength With Personal Training
Personal Training Services
Free Fitness Consultation
Your free fitness consultation is where every plan starts. You’ll talk about your goals, activity level, health history, habits and lifestyle. Your trainer also takes baseline measurements, like weight and body composition. Body composition is the mix of muscle, fat and everything else in your body. Then you’ll get a plan.
Yes, it really is free. It’s a relaxed way to meet your trainer and see what training here looks like. Bring your questions, and wear something comfortable you can move in.
One-on-One Personal Training
One-on-one personal training is a program built around you. Your trainer personalizes it to your goals. That might be strength, fat loss, mobility, motivation and variety, or exercise modifications. Exercise modifications are changes that make a move fit your body. Sessions come in 30 or 60 minutes.
Want company? You can add a second person to a session. Training with a friend can make showing up more fun.
Curious about cost? See training packages for current package options.
Nutrition Coaching
Nutrition coaching is general guidance on food and everyday habits, built to support your training goals. Several of our trainers offer it, and it can be part of your personal training plan. It’s practical, real-life support that fits your routine, not a strict diet handed to you on day one.
Every plan is different, because every person is different. Bring your questions about meals, habits and routines. Your coach will help you build habits that fit your life and your schedule.
Please note: Our trainers are not registered dietitians or nutritionists. Nutrition coaching is not medical nutrition therapy, and we don’t create meal plans for medical conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease or food allergies. If you have a health condition or need a specific diet, please talk with your doctor or a registered dietitian.
Sports Training
Sports training is personal training built around a sport or event. The aims are getting stronger, performing better and managing soreness. Your trainer takes an injury-aware approach. That means planning your training with your body and your history in mind. Trainers work with runners, triathletes, teams and more.
An injury-aware plan may lower your injury risk along the way. Tell us what you’re training for and when it is. Your plan will build toward that day.
Training + Massage
Training and massage work well together here. Many of our trainers are also licensed massage therapists. That means your training and your recovery can be planned together, by people who understand both sides. It’s a simple way to keep your body feeling good while you work hard.
