SERVICES
Exercise Programming
Personalized exercise programming tailored to your needs and goals. This service starts with an initial phone consultation to review your goals, medical history, exercise history, diet, and lifestyle. I will then develop a program each week that will be sent to you in an Excel spreadsheet along with video demonstrations of each exercise. At the end of the week you send me your completed work out log with comments to allow me to modify the following week's program.
