Question 1

How long before I see results?

Accepted Answer

Some of my clients say they start to feel better within a few weeks. Usually at 6 weeks (give or take a little) you will see changes begin to take place. BUT this all depends on many factors such as fitness level at the start of the program, age, gender, specific fitness goals, any medical history, any past/current injuries, nutrition, sleep, stress level, and training intensity/schedule.
 
This is why a customized program works so well, all of these factors are taken into consideration along with a timeline of achieving each goal. In the end it all comes down to putting in the effort and being CONSISTENT!

Question 2

I am 60 and never exercised. Is it too late to start?

Accepted Answer

It’s never too late to start! I always take into account a person’s exercise history when planning their initial program.
 
Exercise is important at all ages and especially important as we get older. Mobility and strength are key to quality of life in our later years. 
 
I am constantly inspired by my clients who are 65 +, as I get to witness the benefits of making movement a priority at any age.

Question 3

What types of home fitness equipment would you recommend?

Accepted Answer

You don’t need to go crazy. I would recommend a yoga/floor mat for cushioning while doing exercises where you will be on your back, elbows and knees.
 
Three sets of dumbbells including a light, medium and heavy weight. And some mini bands. Start there.
 
Eventually, you may want to add a couple kettlebells.

Question 4

Do you charge extra for nutritional guidance and diet plans?

Accepted Answer

I am always willing to give my clients recommendations when it comes to nutrition. After all, nutrition plays a HUGE role in reaching most fitness goals. I like to have a separate session at least once to sit down and give this topic the attention it needs and deserves. I offer nutrition coaching sessions, in person and virtual, just as I do movement training sessions.
I do not offer diet plans. I am here to help you get results by eating the food that will make you feel and look better. And eating in a way that is sustainable. If you have a certain timeline for a achieving a goal, that will be taken into account.
