PERSONAL FITNESS TRAINING
What is personal training?
Personal training consists of one-on-one coaching from a certified personal fitness trainer. This trainer teaches you, motivates you, and gets you to work hard consistently while following a detailed fitness and nutrition plan.
Personal training is the most effective method of achieving your health, fitness, and/or weight loss goals as it utilizes the most effective exercise and nutrition strategies while at the same time it keeps you continuously making progress.
The cost of a personal trainer?
You are NOT locked into a contract... You can start, stop, or change your program at any time. And if for some reason you decide to stop, I will refund to you the amount for any sessions you haven't completed. Sessions DON'T expire... They are deducted from your program as you complete them... For example, if you reschedule a session (with a 24-hour notice) or go away for a week, you will NOT loose your sessions.

- Anaerobic Threshold Testing
VO2 Max testing involves a graded exercise test on any stationary exercise machine. The
test starts at a very easy level and increases intensity in one-minute stages until the subject cannot continue. The subject’s nose will be plugged, he/she will breathe through a mouthpiece connected to the metabolic analyzer, and he/she will wear a heart-rate
monitor. The analyzer measures the volume as well as the percentage of carbon dioxide
and oxygen in the expired gas. From this data, we are able to calculate:
VO2 MAX: For those who take the test to completion (so that we are able to determine VO2 Max), VO2 Max is the volume of oxygen the body uses during one minute of maximal exercise. Expressed as liters of oxygen per minute or milliliters of oxygen per kilogram of bodyweight per minute, this data tells your potential for endurance athletics. While anaerobic threshold is the best predictor of current endurance performance, VO2 Max indicates the potential of an athlete after several years of systematic, structured training.
ANAEROBIC THRESHOLD: Known as the red-line to endurance athletes, this threshold
is the highest intensity, as measured by heart rate, at which the body can remove lactic acid as quickly as it is produced. Just below anaerobic threshold (AT), an athlete is working hard, but feels no burning in the muscles and is breathing heavily, but
controlled. Above AT, lactic acid is building up in the muscles and will cause premature
fatigue. Knowing one’s threshold allows one to achieve a very high level of cardiovascular
conditioning without the discomfort and muscle damage of lactic acid buildup.
