CHICAGO PERSONAL TRAINING: At Chicago Personal Trainers, we provide the best Personal Training available in Chicago, Evanston, Wilmette, Winnetka, and Skokie. Our Certified Personal Fitness Trainers are the best trainers you can find at any price. We set the standard in fitness assessment, personal training, and tracking results. Fitness Assessment – You will begin by going through a complete fitness assessment. Your Chicago Personal Trainer will objectively measure every parameter of your fitness level. The assessment will be repeated after you have been participating regularly in our personal training and nutrition program for three months, and again after every three months to follow. These objective numbers are used to monitor your progress (see Tracking Results below). The fitness assessment includes: Three Body Fat Measurements. We measure body fat in three different ways, to ensure precision (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis, Infra-Red Analysis, and Skinfold Protocol). No single method of body fat assessment is 100% accurate, but if all three methods yield a similar result, we know we are as close as is possible. A VO2 Max Test. We use several different protocols (yours will be based on your age and level of activity). The VO2 Max test tells us what your level of cardiovascular conditioning is. Blood Pressure Measurement Resting Pulse Rate Several Flexibility Tests Muscular Strength and Endurance Tests Waist to Hips Ratio Body Mass Index Personal Training: Our Chicago Personal Fitness Trainers are all degreed and Nationally Certified. We only accept the highest level of certifications – no mail order or Internet certifications. All of our Personal Fitness Trainers have a minimum of five years of experience, must pass a rigorous internal screening process, and must continuously pursue higher education. We don’t employ “Club Trainers”. Any routine, no matter how good it is, can’t keep producing results for long. That is because your body quickly becomes accustomed to the routine, and no longer needs to change. What makes it even worse is that a routine that changes infrequently can actually increase the chance of a repetitive stress injury. These routines also become boring, which makes it harder to stick with it. All of our certified personal fitness trainers are experts in varying your workout at every meeting. That way, you won’t get bored, and you won’t get repetitive stress injuries. Your body can never get used to your routine (and stop changing) because you won’t have a routine. Tracking Results: Your Chicago Personal Trainer will give you a weekly fitness goals form. This keeps you accountable to yourself and your Trainer. This tracking process will take you less than one minute per day, but in our experience, it has produced some amazing results. Your fitness assessment will be repeated at three month intervals. Your parameters will be monitored to ensure that: Body Fat Percentage Decreases Resting Pulse Rate Decreases Blood Pressure Decreases (if initially elevated) Flexibility Increases Strength and Endurance Increases Body Mass Index Decreases Waist to Hips Ratio Decreases VO2 Max Increases Are you ready to Lose Weight, Tone Up and Get in Shape?
