This is Balance Gym’s bread and butter: we believe that the foundation of true fitness is strength, and there is no better way to get strong than with a structured, progressive program that is crafted and guided by a personal trainer. Everyone needs strength work; and it’s not about “bulking up”: as you get past your teens/20’s, strength work becomes crucial to maintain muscle and improve your well-being. A good base of strength will allow you to improve your overall health, burn fat, and prevent imbalances that can lead to injury.

This is often cited as the #1 reason why people choose personal training, but the answer is usually a little more in depth: clients really just want to look good naked and feel great in their daily lives. Balance Gym trainers are trained to guide you through changes in your body composition to maximize your assets, making weight loss fun and sustainable.

Running is one of the most accessible forms of fitness, but it is still a skill. Our trainers can help you maximize your runs and train you for those PR’s.

They call it “Olympic” for a reason: the discipline is an intensive sport that can take years to master! Balance Gym believes in the power of the barbell and many of our trainers hold Team USA Weightlifting Certifications.

Power lifting and Strongman training involves complex movements and requires unique training methods to pack on muscle and strength. Working with a Balance trainer will reduce your risk of injury, educate you on proper form and technique, and customize a program specific to gaining the muscle mass, weight, and strength needed to compete or train like a strong man!

Crossfit, probably our most dynamic workout program has a tremendous amount of variety, which equates to a lot of new movements and exercises you’ll need to properly learn. In addition, being educated about proper rest, nutrition, and workout schedules is essential to Crossfit success. Be comforted that a Balance personal trainer will guide you through the ins and outs of Crossfit regardless of your experience level.

Injury rehabilitation is much different than it was even ten years ago. Many (but not all) sport related injuries require a strict and proper rehabilitation program. It is very important to begin rehab as soon as your doctor provides the green light to get back to the gym. Having a Balance personal trainer assist you with a program your doctor provided, or a custom program specific to your injury type will ensure you are on the right path to a speedy and safe recovery.

Injuries can occur when someone is misinformed or not educated about how to exercise properly. Injuries can also happen when someone is overly tired, doesn’t take the necessary rest, or overwork a muscle group. All of these risks can be easily avoided when an athlete is properly informed and educated. It is essential you take the time and effort to learn the proper way to train. Having a personal trainer is the best way to avoid injury. You will learn the right techniques, understand the importance of rest, know the proper amount of weight to be using and be able to evaluate the frequency of your workouts.

Balance was founded by a professional athlete and many of the personal trainers at Balance Gym are athletes themselves. If you want to look and feel like an athlete, then it is time to start training like one. Meet with a Balance trainer and get a great program specific for your sport and athletic goals.
