Onboarding process

Upon making your life changing decision, the member is scheduled to meet with a personal trainer to set up their fitness profile. At this time, we will go through goal assessment, postural assessment, and weight and body composition analysis in order to create a baseline and set realistic goals.

Nutrition

Members CAN NOT outwork a bad diet. That being said, nutrition is 75% of your results. Here at FPF members go through their initial nutrition counseling during the onboard process to establish a program that fits with their lifestyle.

How does it work?

Members are placed into groups of 3-4 within a larger group while still getting individual attention from the trainer so everyone can still maximize their results. Group personal training can be visualized as a group of people doing different exercises together at their own rate of speed, intensity, and ability. Here at Functional Performance Fitness we cater and design certain workout routines for special clients who can’t perform certain compound movements. These customized workouts enable our clients to get in the best shape of their life and achieve their individual results. Group training is FUN! It creates community, healthy competition, motivation, accountability, consistency, and results.

What kind of training will I do?

FPF was created to deliver a 3 dimensional training experience to mimic everyday lifestyle movements. Our bodies are able to squat, lunge, push, pull, bend, twist, and much more. The goal is to enhance our bodies ability to perform all functional movements. We combine resistance training and cardio into one workout to do metabolic conditioning and having the best effect of EPOC Aka the after burn.

What about my progress

Group personal training wouldn’t be a “personal training program” without ongoing progress reports. Members are scheduled biweekly for nutrition counseling and to keep track of their progress and stay motivated to work towards their goal. Nothing gets the FPF family (members and staff) more exited than positive RESULTS.

Specialty Training.

Suspension Training

Suspension training is a bodyweight exercise which develops strength, balance, flexibility and core stability simultaneously. TRX is a portable performance training tool that uses gravity and the user’s body weight to do a variation of over hundreds of different exercises. Having a strong core means more than having a visible six-pack. If you want to move, feel and look better, chances are you should start with your core. That’s why any movement performed on a TRX Suspension Trainer requires that you brace and stabilize with your abs, obliques and lower-back so you can leverage your own bodyweight as resistance. The TRX exercises use functional movements to help you increase your overall core fitness.

Kettlebell Training

When you swing kettlebells, your heart rate can come up as quick and as elevated as it would from any form of jump training, Libin Anderson explains. According to a study from the American Council on Exercise (ACE), you can even burn up 20 calories a minute, depending on how hard you’re working. That’s equivalent to (if not more than) what you might accomplish in a cardio class.

Battle Rope Training. Impressive Metabolic Results

Battle rope training demands more oxygen and elevates post exercise oxygen consumption more than many other forms of traditional training. This means it is an incredible fat blasting tool that makes you stronger, fitter and more powerful all at the same time. There are exercises that are specific for power, aerobic endurance, anaerobic endurance and strength endurance. You can complete the exercises with a partner or on your own. They are also incredibly time efficient.The battle rope is a great alternative to high impact activities such as running or jumping. It is great for clients that have any joint issues as you can accelerate the heart rate with minimal impact.

Nutritional Services

Nutrition is 85% of your results when developing a training program that is why Functional Performance Fitness offers Nutrition Services by a certified nutrition specialist to clients to enhance and empower overall wellness.

Why a personal trainer

One on one personal training

There are so many reasons why a Personal Trainer is essential to achieving your fitness goals, whether they be weight loss-based, sports-driven or for athletic purposes. Here, we’ve put together the most critical reasons why you should have a Personal Trainer, as well as the benefits that you are likely to achieve.

It's educational

One of the primary reasons that someone should have a Personal Trainer is that they are trained in teaching others how to exercise. And while exercise in itself is only a part of fitness, with nutrition and lifestyle playing an essential role in the overall picture if you don’t get exercise right then you will never achieve your goals.

Perfect your form

Having a Personal Trainer beside you to demonstrate the correct posture and technique is invaluable. A Personal Trainer will ensure clients are performing exercises correctly and efficiently, in order to maximize results. If your form when exercising is not correct, then you are at increased risk of injury as well as not achieving your goals (because nothing kills a dream like 10 weeks of prescribed bed rest!).

Your unique requirements

Everybody is different, and that means everyone’s abilities and requirements are different when it comes to exercise. This could be anything from having an old injury that requires special exercises to having a phobia that may impact on where or how you workout.

Help you set realistic goals

Everyone wants to achieve their goals straight away, whether they be weight loss, cheese grater abs or Hulk-like strength. But these are not always achievable, and if you don’t hit them then you may be discouraged and backslide.

Hold you accountable

How many times have you gone to bed and said to yourself, ‘Tomorrow I’m going to wake up, go to the gym, and do an hour workout before I get ready for work’, and then woken up and decided to sleep for another hour instead of exercising?

Challenge you

Are you getting bored with your fitness routine? Have you progressed beyond the exercises you know and have plateaued in your fitness? A Personal Trainer is what you need to take you to the next level, and continuously challenge your abilities.
