Personal Training

After enjoying running and fitness for years now and turning friends on to running and helping friends train for races I have decided to finally make the jump and become a personal trainer.  Being a trainer gives me the flexibility to do everything I need to do around the house and for the kids but also lets me do something that I love.  Not only do I love fitness but I believe it should be a part of everyone's life.  Fitness doesn't have to mean the drudgery of a workout at the gym and being a personal trainer means I can help people find the fun in fitness.  As adults and parents I believe that we have a duty to our children to show them how to live a healthy life and if we can have fun in fitness then so can our children.  My training programs are all back to basic programs.  By that I mean all my exercises can be done outside in a park.  Being out in nature in the fresh air while using your own body weight to get fit.  By exercising this way your fitness routine can travel with you.  If you go on vacation just bring your exercise clothing and you don't need to miss a workout.  If you bring your children to the playground you can also use the playground for strength training! 

So in addition to getting the kids settled back into a routine this year I am also finding my new routine.  I am training five women on Tuesdays and Thursdays in my Beginning Fitness class as well as I have an individual client that I train with once a week.  I am hoping to increase that over the next couple months but I'm off to a good start.
