Clients Testimonials About Eric Greenberg, MD CPT

“I have been training with Eric for the past three months and I have been very pleased with the results as well with Eric's approach.

I started looking for a personal trainer months before I met Eric because I had gained weight, had little energy, and felt that my fitness and health were not good.

I wanted to get back into the condition that I had been in most of my life.

I trained with a couple of other trainers who did not listen to my needs and requests and tried to get me to do exercises with which I felt uncomfortable performing.

Before I trained with Eric I explained to him what my needs, interests, and goals were, and explained my medical history.

Eric listened to me and formulated a program with which I felt very comfortable. Actually, his program was very demanding, but I only performed exercises with which I felt comfortable. I understood the reasons for each exercise, and understood the basis for the regime. After each session, I feel invigorated. I am always left with a sense of balance and accomplishment. My energy greatly increased after training for only a couple weeks. I have lost significant weight and I feel stronger and firmer. I believe that Eric's background as an internal medicine physician sets him apart from other trainers. Not only does he have the background to design a program that addresses my health concerns, but he has the 'bedside manner' of a physician who is concerned and truly wants to help his client. "

--M. Solial, age 39

“I could not have wished for a better trainer than Eric.

I had been in great shape all of my life until about four years ago when I realized that I had gained weight and could not fit into any of my clothes. I started to swim about two years ago and lost weight, then I plateaued and could not lose any more weight and still could not get into my old clothes.

Eric started me on interval training and weight training. The workout were much more vigorous than my swimming workouts. At first I was worried that I would get big muscles if I lifted weights, but Eric reassured me that I would not. Despite my legs becoming very strong, they are more slender and feminine than ever before. I lost 12 pounds to get back to my precollege weight, and my hips and butt are more shapely than they have ever been. I lost all of my belly fat and am no longer ashamed to be seen in my bathing suit at the pool.

I could have never done this without Eric' s intense training program, his encouragement and his pushing me to perform at a higher level."

--Jackie F., age 43

“I have now been training three times a week with Eric for the past year. My level of fitness has dramatically improved and continues to improve. I can perform exercises that I could not have possibly performed just a few months ago.

When I first started training with Eric, I felt tired when I walked up a flight of stairs. My energy dramatically improved over the first month, and now my energy level is excellent.

In addition the training studio is beautiful and I am much more comfortable there than in a gym.

I cannot even imagine going through a week without my training sessions. Thank you, Eric, for continuing to motivate me!“

--S. Tuckerly, age 39

"I have been training with Eric for the past four months and have had dramatic results. I have lost twenty pounds despite not being greatly overweight to begin with, and I have become much stronger and noticeably more muscular. I get numerous complements on my physique. Now I can lift each of my kids with one hand at the same time.

I am a surgeon, and I used to have back pain when I was in surgery for a long time, but now I never have back pain.

During the workouts Eric keeps me moving from one high intensity exercise to the next, without rest. My heart rate remains up throughout the workout. Eric pushes me and encourages me to perform at a level that I could never perform on my own.

After the workouts I feel great.

I am very appreciative of Eric's enthusiasm and sincere effort to raise my level of performance and fitness."

K Trad, age 51

"I am extremely pleased with Eric's personal training. I have several medical problems and injuries and was unable to work out on my own. I went to Eric to see if he could train me despite my limitations. Eric designed a program which permits me to work out at a very high level of intensity without letting my injuries get in the way. I have lost seven pounds in the past month an feel much more physically fit. The workouts are challenging but are within my limitations. Eric's medical background is a big plus and greatly helps him understand my ailments and work around them. In addition, the training studio is very nice and comfortable. I recommend Eric to everyone who wants to get in shape without reservation." A. Goldman, age 50

Eric is a great trainer. I have been training with him for almost a year now and my results have be outstanding. I get numerous complements about my figure and I am in better condition then I have been in for years.

The workouts are demanding, but Eric is a very nice guy and I realy enjoy spending time with him. He is very bright and has a good sense of humor. He also is extremely knowlegable about health and fitness.

If you realy want to get in shape and are willing to put in the effort, I highly recomend Eric to you.

Maxine C, age 57

I have lost over 75 pounds and completely transformed my body since I started training with Eric over five months ago. I am 15 pounds from my goal. I could never have done this without Eric. Now, for the first time in years, I get compliments about my physique.

Eric is a phenomenal trainer. His workouts are demanding but I am always psyched to work out with Eric, and I feel great after the workouts. I am nearly twice as strong as I was when I started in all of my lifts.

Eric really knows what he is doing, and my friends who are fitness buffs agree. If you really want to get in shape and you are willing to put in the effort, you should train with Eric.

K. Hartman- 39

I've been working with Eric for almost a year, after I determined to lose a substantial amount of weight and get myself into some sort of fit state. Eric has been terrific. He designed a program to meet my special needs...I wanted to strengthen muscles needed to ride a horse at a dude ranch I booked for the summer! He challenges me and encourages me and keeps me going. I know I wouldn't lift weights without him being there. He uses the traditional methods that show results! I couldn't be happier with how I'm feeling;stronger, thinner, and so much is due to Eric.

Training Method that Fits You!

Training programs are designed by the trainer working in concert with the client based upon the client's goals, current level of fitness, experience, personal preference, medical and physical limitations, and time, and financial restraints.

Our training programs are ideal for everyone from beginners to triathletes and bodybuilders and will enable you to reach one or more of the following common fitness goals (or other goals as set forth by the client):

1. Weight loss or decrease in percent body fat (improvement in body composition)

2. Increase in muscular definition or muscle tone or in muscle mass.

3. Improvement in performance including increased strength, speed, endurance, quickness, or athletic performance.

4. Improvement in health including decrease in cardiac risk factors such as cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, and obesity. Also improvement in bone health; decrease in risk for osteopenia and osteoporosis.

5. Improvement in energy.

6. Improvement in function after injuries. (post-rehabilitation)

7. Improvement in daily function and maintenance of independent living. Particularly important for elderly. Includes improvement in stability, strength, agility and flexibility.

Training programs involve cardiovascular training, core training, weightlifting: strength training and endurance training and bodybuilding, weight loss training, and stability, agility, and flexibility training.

Techniques such as circuit training, interval training, and conventional techniques will be employed.

Solo Training

CLASSIC TRAINING PROGRAM

Our workouts are designed to convert your body from a soft, sedentary, calorie storing reservoir into a lean, mean, calorie burning machine. Workouts are not merely designed to burn calories. The workouts will increase your lean muscle mass, convert fat to muscle, and thereby increase your basal metabolic rate, which is the rate at which your body burns calories at rest or also called your metabolism.

In addition the workouts will increase your muscular strength and endurance and cardiovascular capacity making it much easier to exercise and burn calories.

Our workouts are dynamic, fast moving, energizing, efficient, and focus on major muscle groups. When you are finished with your workouts you will feel exhilarated. You will have a sense of accomplishment, satisfaction, and confidence.

Workouts are designed based on a clients current level of fitness, goals and personal preferences. Dr. Greenberg is willing to work with his clients to design an optimum workout based on the clients personal preferences. For instance Dr. Greenberg can modify your training program to reach the same goals by using different exercise modalities, including body weight exercises, floor exercises, free weights, machines, stability balls, medicine balls, the bosu, resistance bands, and other modalities. We cater to everyone from beginners, the elderly, the obese, and those with medical conditions and injuries to tri-athletes and bodybuilders.

Dr. Greenberg's extensive background in internal medicine is instrumental in designing programs for people with health problems such as diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, and muscular skeletal injuries.

Dr. Greenberg's understanding of exercise physiology is instrumental in designing programs for athletes to increase their strength, speed, and quickness, and to improve their body composition. Workouts continue without rest but move from muscle group to muscle group to avoid premature exhaustion, and move from dynamic high intensity exercises to more focused exercises to enable clients to catch their breath and recover from a cardiovascular standpoint while maintaining a heart rate in a fat burning range. Workouts provide the benefit of both the aerobic and anaerobic metabolism. Your workout and diet will be designed to increase lean muscle mass, increase energy, and burn fat.

For beginners, after your first workout you will be exhausted but relaxed and very satisfied. The next day you may experience some muscle soreness. The muscle soreness will lesson after each workout and will no longer occur on a regular basis after the second or third week. You will notice an almost immediate increase in energy.

Soon after you start training your body will feel more solid and you will notice an increase in muscular definition. By the sixth week you will see remarkable changes in your body, and by three to four months, your body will have taken a full transformation. Of course if you have a large amount of weight to lose or if you are trying to gain a large amount of muscle mass your goals will take longer to achieve, but by this point you will be well on your way.

If you are working out less than three times a week results will take longer to achieve. We are able to motivate and encourage our clients in order to get the highest level of effort and performance; your results will be in accordance with your effort.

Strength Training, Body Building, and Sports

Dr. Greenberg has extensive experience in strength training and bodybuilding and will design very efficient programs that can help you build a large amount of muscle and greatly improve your strength.

This is particularly important for most competitive athletes including off-season college athletes, golfers, tennis players, and even runners who want to improve their speed.

This program is also great for men or women who want to develop a more muscular physique.

Functional Training for the Elderly

The solo program as well as the train with a friend program below includes functional training for the elderly. This includes exercises for improvement in stability of gait, strength, agility and flexibility and functional exercises for improvement with ADLs, improvement in daily function and maintenance of independent living.

Post-Rehab Training

The solo training program includes post-rehab training for people who have recently recovered from injuries such as rotator cuff tears or back injuries. Programs will be designed to develop the musculature in the area of the injury without causing recurrent injury.

Train with a Friend

Train with a friend that has similar goals and level of fitness. We can train both of you together. Having a friend alongside motivates some clients in maintaining a regular workout routine.

Training sessions will be similar to the solo training workouts as above, but designed to accommodate both clients affording each client equal attention.

Training with a friend can also be cost effective.

Discount for Training During Off Hours and Frequent Monthly Training Sessions

Training sessions more than 12 times a month are discounted.

Training sessions between 9:00 am & 4:00 pm Monday - Friday are discounted.
