Introduction: Ians approach to fitness is very straightforward. Its how he operates best and its what he has found produces the best results, time and time again. Make people stronger. Do so in an intelligent and simple manner. STRONG. SMART. SIMPLE. Strong Everyone can benefit from being strong. Not necessarily squat a house strong, but stronger than they currently are and stronger relative to their bodyweight. Improved strength makes all aspects of life easier. Shoveling snow. Moving furniture to a new home. Carrying bags of groceries. Playing with kids. Being stronger allows your body to exert less for a given task. People often hear strong and think hulking. False. Dont fall for this misconception. Instead think of a gymnast, strong and highly functional. For nearly everyone strong is about being functional. Stronger individuals feel better, look better, and perform better. Ian teaches people to embrace strength. Smart With exercise selection, one size does not fit all. It must be stated that an intelligent approach must be taken for each individual. People have different body shapes, different injuries, different goals, and different needs. There is no point in becoming stronger if as a result of exercise you cant bend over to tie your shoelaces. Or your knees ache when climbing stairs. Or you cant sleep because your shoulder is barking at you all night. Training needs to mirror the needs of the individual. Ian creates appropriate progressions and regressions tailored to each clients needs. Simple There is no need to overcomplicate fitness. Simply perform slightly more than you did the last workout. Rinse and repeat. The human body is exceptional at adapting to frequent specific stress (i.e., exercise). Frequent and specific are the key words. If exercises change too often the body will never learn which stress to adapt to, therefore true progress will happen slowly, if at all. Ians goal with clients is to help them become highly proficient at a range of exercises while consistently and progressively making those exercises more challenging. By gradually using more weight, performing more reps, or decreasing recovery time clients fitness will improve. After 3-6 weeks, when exercises become familiar to the body, Ian will progress to slightly different and/or more challenging variations. For example, push-ups advance to feet-elevated push-ups. Similar but different. Simple exercises also allow for efficiently tracking true progress. How can you know if your workouts are effective if they are frequently changing? Nothing motivates people more than clear-cut progress. Just watch the reaction from a woman who completes one pull-up for the first time. Its pure joy. Steady progress is infectious. It further motivates people and leads to long-term success. A simple approach works time and time again. Ians training program was tailored specifically to my goals and sport, which made me a better athlete and helped me stay healthy during the most physically demanding season of my life. Ian has an endless knowledge about strength and conditioning and can help anybody achieve their goals. Dillon Roy, Denver Outlaws & Team Canada Lacrosse There's nothing better than helping people feel more confident about the way the look, move, and feel. Improved confidence through fitness carries over to all aspects of life and it's a pleasure to be part of the process.

My training with Ian has been far better and more productive than I ever could have imagined. I came in with some physical ailments and pain that we had to work around and I was a bit unsure how training would go because of these things. However, Ian has been extremely thoughtful, patient, and helpful as far as planning workouts specifically designed for me and my unique situation. In the months I have been training with Ian, my strength, muscle definition, and stamina have grown exponentially. I am thrilled with the results and actually look forward to our sessions. I could not recommend him more.

I've known Ian for almost 10 years and have had him write my several weight training programs. He's an excellent trainer and taught me the importance of weight training, especially for women. He wants you to work hard but has an approach that is not too intense. I highly recommend him!

I was trained by Ian for 3 years and in those years it was the best shape I have ever been in. He was constantly getting me new workouts to focus on the areas I needed to improve on and saw big gains. I would suggest Lockwood Fitness Systems to anyone and everyone looking to get in shape or anyone that needs some motivation at the gym!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Personal training is offered in 30 and 60-minute sessions, as well as in both group and 1-on-1 settings. This is designed to offer multiple options to clients who lead busy lives and do not always need the traditional one-hour, 1-on-1 session. All sessions begin with a full-body dynamic warm-up that serves to prepare the body for exercise and undo any sedentary tendencies, such as sitting at a desk or driving a car. All sessions will end with a brief cool-down and flexibility work. The heart of the training session will largely depend on a persons goals, but will usually include some combination of weight training, core training, cardiovascular training, circuits, intervals, mobility, and postural work. 30-minute sessions are highly focused and put a large emphasis on best bang for your buck exercises relative to your goals. If performed correctly there is no reason a great workout cannot be accomplished in half an hour. This is ideal for individuals who would like to conclude their workout with 15-30 minutes of their own training (treadmill, bike, extra abs, etc.) and do not need the assistance of a trainer during that time. 60-minute sessions accomplish everything that a 30-minute session does but allows for additional specialization and time to focus on areas of weakness. This is the ideal set-up for some one who is serious about accomplishing their goals because it allows for all aspects of fitness to be addressed thoroughly. All prices below do not include sales tax. Group Personal Training (2-3 people) Group personal training is highly recommended. It fosters accountability, provides peer motivation, and is simply fun. Wouldnt you rather workout with 1-2 of your friends than completely by yourself? On days you feel sluggish your workout buddies are there to boost your energy. Group training is also more affordable and it creates a fantastic environment to succeed. Find 1-2 friends to join you and achieve your fitness goals together. Ian is glad to assist in connecting like-minded individuals looking for group training opportunities. Group personal training is offered in 10 or 20-session packages. 30-minute sessions 2 people $25/person/session 3 people $20/person/session 60-minute sessions 2 people $40/person/session 3 people $30/person/session 1-on-1 Personal Training If you are looking for a highly individualized fitness program specially tailored to your strengths and weaknesses then 1-on-1 personal training is the best fit for you. With 1-on-1 training you will have the full attention of the trainer at all times and every single rep will be meticulously coached. 1-on-1 training is also ideal for individuals with specific needs. 30-minute sessions $35 per session (discounts for larger packages) 10 sessions = $350 20 sessions + 2 free sessions = $700 (save $70) 40 sessions + 4 free sessions = $1,400 (save $140) 60-minute sessions $60 per session (discounts for larger packages) 10 sessions = $600 20 sessions + 2 free sessions = $1,200 (save $120) 40 sessions + 4 free sessions = $2,400 (save $240) Ian is also happy to explore options for individuals who would prefer at-home personal training. Having performed training sessions in a variety of settings with minimal equipment (such as parks, hotel hallways, and basketball courts) Ian is confident he can provide you with a great workout regardless of the location. Additionally, if you are visiting Santa Fe, New Mexico and would like to stay physically active during your stay Ian would be glad to work with you. Let Ian know how he can help. Please do not hesitate to contact Ian regarding any questions you might have.
