Personal Touch Fitness
Description of Services:
Why hire a personal fitness trainer? You may ask, “What can a trainer do for me that I cannot do myself?” Our specially trained fitness professionals will offer you:
* Private Sessions providing one on one guidance through a workout designed and based on your personal goals. For example, if you would like to loose weight and tone up, our fitness professional will design a program to tighten and tone muscles and burn calories, while adding calorie burning cardiovascular intervals to speed up your weight loss.
Initial Fitness Assessment:
At Personal Touch Fitness we start with an Individual Fitness Assessment, (IFA). The IFA measures your level of cardiovascular fitness, flexibility, and body –fat. The trainer will initially assess your level of fitness on your first visit to Personal Touch Fitness. A “before” photo, along with “before” measurements will be recorded, and kept confidential in your personal chart. Specifically, the trainer will measure, resting heart rate, active heart rate, flexibility, body fat and inches. These measurements as well as your health history and goals will be used to determine your personal fitness training workout plan and nutritional guidelines to meet your goals. Assessments are repeated and charted every six weeks to track your progress
* Along with your initial assessment, a personal health and fitness history will be taken so that your personal trainer can more specifically target in on a fitness regime suitable for your level of fitness.
* In addition to the health and fitness history, your personal trainer will sit down with you and review your goals for fitness, well being, and nutritional needs. Goals will be recorded in your personal chart and reviewed every six weeks to ‘stay on track’.

New Healthy Choices™Eating Suggestions Program
Personal Touch Fitness trainers are there to support you in your weight loss goals; however, we are not trained doctors. Our trainers will offer you suggestions; however, your eating requirements should be reviewed by a registered dietician or your doctor first. We make suggestions advocating a healthy eating pattern and a healthy lifestyle.
As Personal Trainers, we do not believe in "fad" diets. We recommend a healthy eating plan, based on your goals, limitations, food allergies, and health issues.
In general, it is recommended that clients attempt to eat healthy, including veggies, fruit, brown rice and healthy grains. We recommend limiting white refined sugar, white flour, limiting fats, and "bad" carbohydrates! This eating plan is based on healthy and natural eating; yet, as always, portion control is key! Our trainers can help you with suggestions to keep you on track, such as weighing and measuring foods, preparing foods ahead of time, and so on.
New Healthy Choices™ Food Shopping Services
Personal Touch Fitness is proud to announce our Food Shopping Service! For an added fee, Personal Touch Fitness Trainers will help you to implement a healthy eating plan for you based on your lifestyle, goals, and choices. Here’s how it works:
1. You may also choose to seek out an eating plan from an outside professional service; such as, a registered dietician, lifestyle and weight loss consultant, doctor, or weight loss support group program.
2. Based on this consultation, or based recommendations from your registered dietitian, doctor, or weight loss support group, one of our trainers will provide you with a shopping list that you may take to the store with you to help you buy the healthy foods.
3. In addition, the trainer can simply take your healthy shopping list and do the work for you. What a relief! No waiting in lines, no wasted time reading labels.
Food shopping assistance can really help you to get on track with your eating issues! Just think, a certified personal trainer accompanying you to the supermarket, and helping you make the right choices! This offers an added level of support and comfort.
