FAQs
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
First, I always offer a complimentary training session/consultation to see if I am a good fit for the potential client's fitness needs. We go over GOALS, past injuries, past workout history before we train. Once a person signs up for a training program I then perform a full fitness assessment with body fat/composition measures, strength, cardio endurance, movement screen, and flexibility being tested. I also give my client's a thorough home program that compliments what we are trying to achieve, goal and fitness wise.
