Our Personal Trainers perform a Fitness Assessment (also called a pre-assessment) on each new client that signs up for our program. A Fitness Assessment is a series of assessments and/or movement screens to determine your current level of physical fitness and movement patterns. The data from the Fitness Assessment is used to design a personalized fitness program specifically tailored to help you move better and achieve your goals. Some of the many benefits of a Fitness Assessment include:
After a period of time, your Personal Trainer will perform another fitness assessment (called a post-assessment) to measure how you are progressing toward your fitness goal. Post-testing will help to determine appropriate ways to further challenge you in your program. Additionally, you will be eligible to participate in regular body composition testing using the Bod Pod free of charge (this test normally costs $20.00). The various fitness tests include:
To request a Bod Pod Test please complete the Bod Pod Test Request Form.
Once we receive your request, one of our Bod Pod Technicians will contact you within 1-3 days.
