What is a consultation?
A consultation at the Center is the initial meeting between you (the client) and one of our fitness trainers to discuss your performance goals, health and injury history, exercise preferences, and any limitations you foresee. We may recommend some performance assessments to get an accurate picture of you at the outset of our work together. These include studies in biomechanics, cognition, balance and cardiovascular fitness performed to establish a baseline. We'll also review your current exercise routine and dietary habits to identify areas for improvement.
Based on this information, we will work with you to set realistic and specific goals. Your trainer will describe their approach and recommendations, schedule assessment, training, and/or recovery sessions, and explain exactly how they will tailor a workout program to suit your needs and objectives. This meeting lays the foundation for a personalized performance improvement plan laser-focused on achieving your desired outcomes safely and effectively.
