Personal Training Services
At Wellness Works, you get more than just another personal trainer. Our goal is to educate, train, treat, and inspire you to become an active participant in your own health and well-being. We will match you with one of our certified personal trainers who will customize a fitness regimen specifically for your needs, goals and pre-existing conditions.
We will maintain regular contact to keep you focused and motivated. We will track your progress and re-evaluate your program on a regular basis.
Our personal training specialties are:
- Cardiovascular Training
- Core Strength and Stability Work
- Flexibility
- Muscle Tone
- Weight Loss
Why is Cardio Training so important?
- It strengthens the heart muscle while improving lung capacity.
- It gets rid of excess fat. (Improves body composition, muscle to fat ratio.)
A healthy heart also means:
- Increased circulation
- Lower concentration of fat in the blood
- Oxygen is extracted from the blood more efficiently
- Decreased blood pressure
- Less beats per minute. It works less and rests more, meaning less wear and tear.
Help your heart out!
- Get rid of the excess
- Increase your energy levels
- Improve your self-image and quality of life
- Help to prevent a heart attack
If you want a healthy heart and want to be rid of the excess fat, then you are going to have to move your body. These are just a few simple and effective ways to get you to move your legs and arms in a relative vigorous manner, for sustained period of time:
- Walk/jog on a treadmill
- Jump rope
- Ride a bike
- Dance or just go out for a brisk walk
What is Intergrative Training?
Let us get you in the best physical shape. Our training approach is a unique blend of:
- The fundamentals (the basic foundations of movement)
- Pilates (develops the coordination of core for the body)

Our type of training is great for all kinds of sports and daily activities.
Nutrition - Live to eat, or eat to live?
Sound nutritional habits play a major role in assisting you to
- reach your fitness goals
- keep your body looking younger
- feel healthier for years to come
Food not only makes the body, it also makes the mind. What are your nutritional habits?
Do you eat just to eat (when you feel emotionally depressed or when you are at social gatherings) or do you eat only when you are hungry and just until you start feeling full?
You don't want to put 50 gallons of gas in a 20 gallon tank. It would spill out, and so do the excess calories you eat - over your belt.
Do you prescribe the proper diet for your stomach type? Do you eat nutritious and sustaining foods which fuel your body, heal you, and keep your body functioning well?
Become a conscious eater! Structure and consistency in good nutritional habits will pay high dividends, and also increase the quality of your mileage later on in life.
