A Consultation/Fitness Assessment is the very first step in the personal training process. In order to design a customized program that most effectively allows you to achieve your goals, we need to know where you are now, and where you want to go in the future.
During the consultation we will discuss your specific goals, lifestyle, exercise experience, health history, motivations, limitations, etc.
The fitness assessment is a valuable tool and evaluates the following:
- Health History
- PAR-Q
- Exercise & Lifestyle History
- Body Composition (7 Site Skinfold Caliper Test)
- Girth Measurements
- Submaximal VO2 Test
- Musculoskeletal Screen
- Flexibility Screen
- General Posture Screen
- Blood Pressure Test
- Optional Progress Photos
Additional assessments may be needed if you are interested in sport specific training. Assessments may include:
- Muscle Strength
- Muscle Endurance
- Muscle Power
- Balance
- Speed
- Agility
- Neuromuscular Coordination
- Flexibility Screen
- General Posture Screen
- Blood Pressure Test
- Optional Progress Photos
The results of these assessments will give us the information needed to design the most effective and efficient programs to reach your goals as quickly as possible. Monthly assessments allow us to document your progress in a more objective manner and will tell us what modifications need to be made in your training and nutrition programming to ensure continued progress.

Nutrition is key to transforming your body. Most people think that with exercise alone their weight loss goals can be reached. Unfortunately, more often than not this is not the case. Metabolic rate and diet go hand in hand and if the body is not kept in an anabolic or positive state the metabolic rate slows down and the person ends up storing body fat and losing muscle. We can help! Many factors influence the diet we customize for our clients. Lifestyle, gender, age, body type, current body weight, body fat %, schedule, likes, dislikes, and goals are all factored into our nutrition plans.
Transforming your body involves a number of factors. Exercise, nutrition, recovery, and genetics all play a dramatic role. Diets and exercise are often victims of fashion, trends, and public opinion. If all the metabolic miracles and exercise routines fulfilled their claims we would all have amazingly lean bodies. Unfortunately, the creation of most diets, health foods, supplements and exercise programs are not inspired by optimal health, but consumerism. We have an educated and experienced background in exercise physiology and nutrition. Whether your goals are to lose weight, tone up, build muscle, sport-specific, or general fitness, We can help! Every nutrition program is individually customized to the clients specific goals and needs. Customized workouts to help you meet your goals are also available.
We customize a nutrition plan that is based on your body type, goals, and lifestyle.
