Fitness Assessment and Program Design

Each member has the option to complete a complimentary Fitness Assessment and Program Design every 3 months. This allows one of our Exercise Physiologists to conduct a series of performance fitness tests to aid in the design of your program. In addition, a Fitness Instructor will design a personalized workout program for you after your assessment. They will help with showing you how to set the machines and find the right amount of weight.

RENEW Weight Management Program

RENEW Small Group Training consists of both conditioning and strength training in a 30-minute low-impact circuit workout. The groups usually consist of 3-5 people. This allows the Personal Trainer to focus on each person and coach proper exercise technique to maximize benefit, while minimizing injury risk.

Whether you’re interested in losing, maintaining, gaining or shifting your body composition, the RENEW Program has you covered. Boasting twelve (12) 30-minute small group training sessions per month with a personal trainer to keep you motivated and engaged, and a monthly Wellness coaching session to implement strategies to make your time inside and outside of the gym work for you, you’re sure to achieve your goals.
