Personal Trainer Overview
As owner of my own business, Pump'n Inc Gym, I specialize in one on one personal training and massage therapy. After an initial complimentary intake session, I set to work to design a program for each client based upon his or her individual needs and goals, ie.building muscle, losing fat,increasing flexibility. Working closely with each client in my one on one gym I can devote complete attention to the clients questions, proper form,etc. as he or she completes the workout. Each session is charted and brief notes are made. Stretching is an important part of each session. Clean towels, botted water, clean locker room facilities, easy accessibility and plenty of parking are great perks to my private facility.
Training Philosophy
As a CFT and Licensed Massage Therapist of eight years, I have been happy to provide each client with a safe and challenging atmosphere where his or her overall health and well being are improved through weight training, cardio-vascular activity, stretching, and massage therapy. I begin with an overall fitness assesment where measurements such as body fat%, BMI, and BMA are established as benchmarks. I believe that through weight training a client can build lean muscle and increase metabolism by employing safe and challenging exercises where I teach and monitor proper execution and form. I teach the basics of nutrition and weight loss and conversation about the client's nutritional plan are regularly discussed. Clients are invited to come in and do cardio which is an important part of every regime and advice is also offered here. I am skilled at several stretching techniques and make it a part of every session. As a massage therapist, I offer this wonderful modality as a special bonus and at a special price to my regular clients. They enjoy this thoroughly!
