Client of The Week: Alyssa!
Congratulations to our Client of the Week, Alyssa!
MY GOALS & BECOMING A PERSONAL TRAINING CLIENT
I was new to weightlifting and training and wanted to feel more comfortable with the equipment. Olivia helped me do this in addition to slowing down, and being more mindful with my movements (she calls me, “The Cardio Bunny”) lol.
My current goals are to continue intentional, mindful movements. Being more aware of my muscle capacity and agility. Balancing work and rest. Olivia has helped me gain perspective on finding that equilibrium!
My training experience has been comprehensive- we focus on strength, form, balance, and stretching. All of this has helped me grow as a runner, dancer, and fitness lover. What I love about working with Liv is our shared background in dance and how we’ve evolved to enjoy other forms of movement. Liv has always been a proponent for challenge, but also listening to one’s body cues.
My favorite memory while training with Liv is probably the first time I told her “no way, I’m not doing that” (in response to a challenging exercise) and in return she added extra weight (within reason) to prove I was more than capable!
ADVICE FOR ANYONE THINKING ABOUT TRYING PERSONAL TRAINING
Working with a Personal Trainer is a great way to grow out of your comfort zone, learn new forms of technique, body awareness, and overall strength and wellness both physically and mentally.
THE FACILITY & STAFF
The staff has been very welcoming and knowledgeable
FITNESS IS UNDEFINED. WHAT’S YOUR FIT?
Fitness should be fun and fluid- a good mix of challenge with attainable goals. Moderation is key, make time for rest. This is what I’ve learned along my journey, which is very opposite of the strict and rigid protocols I grew up with in dance.
