What is an Integrated Fitness Assessment?
Performed by one of our nationally-certified personal trainers, our integrated fitness assessment will help you and your trainer gather baseline data, and help provide a basis for developing goals and effective exercise programs.
Our integrated fitness assessment evaluates the following areas of physical fitness: body composition, muscular strength, muscular endurance, cardiovascular capacity, flexibility, stability, and dynamic mobility.
There are many valid reasons for administering assessments to you as the personal training client. The data collected provides:
-
- Identification of current strengths and weaknesses that may affect program design and emphasis on specific training components
- Identification of areas of potential injury, or contraindications prior to program initiation
- A baseline for future comparisons of improvement or rate of progress
- Assistance in establishing appropriate intensities and volumes of exercise
- Assistance in clarification of short, intermediate, and long-term goals
The integrated fitness assessment is included at no charge with the purchase of a 10 or 15 session personal training package.
