Houston Personal Training / Fitness Programs

Are you ready to take control of one of the most important aspects of your life?    Tired of being tired?   Are you in fairly good shape, but want to tone, shape and sculpt?   Dream of building muscle?  Or just to keep up with your kids?   Do you need to lose weight?    Dread that trip to the mall because you can't walk without sitting down to rest?   Personal training is designed for people who want to exercise efficiently, SAFELY and with results.     My personal training program is designed to keep workouts fresh and interesting, hopefully fun, and it is all about YOU.    

What we do:
I work with clients to improve flexibility,  increase endurance, and increase strength.  These three elements are the building blocks of any general fitness program.  Stability training,  resistance training, suspension training and cardio respiratory training are just some of the components we will incorporate in your training program.

How we do it:
Establish your goals and design a fitness program with those specific criteria as a guide.   Establish a training schedule and plan to implement.  Your progress is documented and monitored.  We also schedule periodic meetings to discuss progress and current goals. 

Educate:
For your personal training program to be effective you have to be a proactive participant.  To succeed you must know "why".  I am passionate about this process and honestly want to work with clients who really want to make positive change in their lives.   I will teach you about exercising effectively and safely, I will teach you about the importance of proper nutrition, and one of the most overlooked aspects of a successful fitness program - rest and recovery.   This plan is not for individuals  just going through the motions.  My training program is for those who truly want to see results.  

Keeping it real:
Certain segments of the fitness industry, weight loss industry and the media have put out so much information that is just plain garbage.   We will go over the myths and discuss realistic expectations.   I want you to succeed!   And honestly, this process is much easier than you might realize.   All you need are  the correct tools and motivation.    I will tell you what is real and possible, not what you want to hear.  

How to get started:
-Schedule fitness assessment,  body composition, and nutrition assessment consultation.   For more information on the assessment, click here.

-Client and trainer will discuss goals and agree upon a plan of action.

-Scheduled workout sessions are agreed upon.

-Each session is one (1) hour.

-Once a week your progress will be evaluated with feedback and guidance from Barb. 

Nutritional Guidance:
Included in every program are a nutritional intake evaluation and a meal plan consultation.   It is true, “you are what you eat”.   I teach a healthy eating habit lifestyle outside of the gym that’s not too drastic, mostly just better food choices.  

Remember, a healthy nutritional lifestyle is 60 to 70% of the success of your fitness goals.

Keeping in touch:
I am available for clients between sessions.
