Team Up With A Personal Trainer WELCOME to Empowered Health and Fitness ~ "Training Tools For Every Body"
Our One-on-One Personal Training program will provide you with the motivation and direction you need to achieve your fitness goals! Whether you are just getting started and would really appreciate some personalized help beginning on your road to success, or you have been working out for years yet still not achieving your desired results, Personal Training is the way to go. Getting started at a club if you are new to working out can be a little intimidating at first. There are many people who feel uncomfortable and self-conscious when they don't know how to use the equipment or what type of workout is right for their body. That is why getting a personal trainer can be the best thing you ever do when you're first getting started. It can help ease your apprehensiveness, and get you going in the right direction. It is a great way to set yourself up to stick with a real workout plan that helps you begin leading that healthy lifestyle that is so important to you. Sometimes even when we've been working out for a long time we can get in a rut and need an expert to help us get better results. Doing the same thing day in and day out leads to burn out and also stagnates your fitness progress. Getting with a Personal Trainer, taking a closer look at your workout and making some educated, strategic changes can create drastic changes in your body and health. We're here to come along side you, to equip, motivate, empower, and promote you. Empowered Health and Fitness provides expert guidance and reliable health resources to help you achieve your personal health and fitness goals for: • ENDURANCE • FLEXIBILITY • BALANCE • STRENGTH • WELL-BEING ENDURANCE ~ Endurance exercise or endurance training consists of performing low- to medium-intensity exercise for long periods of time. For example: jogging or running, cycling, spinning, swimming, and equestrian endurance riding. Physical endurance is differentiated from other forms of physical stress in that in endurance exercise it is not solely fatigue of the muscles and cardiovascular system that force the effort to end. The need for sleep, the buildup of non-recyclable waste chemicals, the depletion of convertible energy stores and other needed chemicals (e.g., water, sodium), physical injury, or psychological failure can also bring the effort to an end. FLEXIBILITY ~ Provides anti-aging benefits, along with aerobic endurance and muscle strength. Everyone can learn to stretch, regardless of age or flexibility. ANY time is a good time. As you age, your muscles tighten and your range of motion becomes limited if you do not stretch regularly, halting n active lifestyle, and even hindering your day-to-day normal activities. A regular stretching program can help lengthen your muscles and restore youthful activity. Stretch To: • Relax your mind and "tune up" your body • Preserve range of motion • Maintain flexibility • Prevent injury during exercise • Prepare the muscles for more vigorous activity • Help develop body awareness • Promote circulation BALANCE ~ "Strength Through Balance" ~ Each year, U.S. hospitals have 300,000 admissions for broken hips. Frequently, falling is the cause for these fractures. Strength and balance training, over time, will reduce your risk of falling and give you a feeling of steadiness and confidence when you engage in your daily activities. Balance training can help you stay independent by helping you to avoid a disability that may result from a fall. Literally, a "balanced life" is a longer life. Yoga is an ideal way to build strength, balance and flexibility. STRENGTH ~ Strength training uses resistance methods like free weights, weight machines, resistance bands, or your own weight to build and preserve muscle. Powerlifting, which people often think of when they think of weightlifting, concentrates on how much weight a person can lift at one time. Competitive bodybuilding involves evaluating muscle definition and symmetry, as well as size. Strength training, for both men and women, is a great way to improve strength, endurance, and muscle tone. As your Personal Fitness trainer we start slowly, use proper form, avoid heavy weights, and increase workouts gradually to prevent injury. Just a few short sessions a week will really pay off — besides better muscle tone and definition, you may find that you have more energy and focus. WELL-BEING ~ Empowered Health and Fitness provides a wealth of resources for your to promote your Well-Being. In addition to Personal Fitness Training, we offer Raindrop Therapy massage. You can find out more about Raindrop Therapy Massage at: www.raindroptherapy.net If you're ready to get started, I would love to get the chance to meet with you and discuss your options, your goals, your dreams and then be there with you every step of the way. You are more likely to adhere to your workout schedule if you have a sense of accountability to another person. That is why people who hire a personal trainer get such amazing before and after results. Don't hesitate to call me at 734-646-5582. I will be happy to schedule a time to meet with you.
