It’s the one area in life that we have the most ability to control! However, most folks look at it as the “hardest”!
Think about it, do you have almost total control anywhere else in your life?What can you expect to get from my training you in the studio or outside (your choice)? • I try to “build on each set” by working the “approximate” same muscles but “changing” every set to include different “resistance” levels but also different equipment and changing angles frequently. ( I don’t do things like 3 sets of 10 with the same weight, equipment and range of motion each set). Every set is “different” in at least one way and more much of the time! I want you to benefit more from your training so that you can leave my studio and go outside in the world and immediately put to use what you have learned! Remember, you are not going to run into many barbells, benches and squat racks in your “real world environment” so don’t put “all of your eggs into one basket,” so to speak! Thanks, The Trainer (RN)*What you get for free here?
• use of towels
• bottled water
• listen to your music during your workout
• Daily multiple choice question worth $2.00
• Renew question worth $25.00
• only one client in studio at a time
• workout inside or out/ your choice
When I think of starting a business of any kind, the one thing that I KNOW must be there and that is a “reason” for me to be involved other than making money! Money is important but a great small business is nothing if the owner isn’t highly and personally involved! The Trainer (RN)*
•••I can’t “promise “ you anything except that “ I will do everything possible to help you reach your goals and continue to climb past them!
I have had clients that move away and want to know what to look for in a new personal trainer. So here are some tips that I have given.
•Look for a trainer that has more knowledge of the human body than just an online certificate. Preferably some hands on experience such as RN, physical therapist, Doctor, or even medical tech or an aid. Why? They are going to be telling you to do things with your body that you haven’t done and you should have the confidence in them that they know what they are working with. I mean would you have a person work on your car if they had only looked at pictures in a book?
•Choose a trainer, if possible, that has his/her own studio. Why? A trainer at a gym might be good but even if they are excellent, the gym they train at tells them what they can do. Ex. Most gym trainers are not allowed to have a full 60 minute session. Also, I believe trainers that have their own place, enjoy what they do much more!
•Choose a trainer that creates your workout as you go along. I used to do prepared sessions and walk around with a clipboard but what happens when your client gets to your studio and they have really thumped their toe and you have leg-day on the clipboard? Also, if your trainer can “build” your workout as you go on the fly, they will get much more out of it and you will get to know them so much more! I assure you that the better you know your client, the more satisfied they will be with a trainer like yourself! Thanks, The Trainer (RN)*
What have I accomplished?
That’s a good question to ask! I won’t give all the details but here is some stuff! I have run more than 500 foot races, including marathons and ultramarathons! I have competed in bodybuilding contests, power lifting, arm wrestling (used to be a big thing), and many other things! I have coached runners, bodybuilders and power lifters! I strongly believe in (Walk The talk)!Check out my client, Vikki, working shoulders with “angles”. Please click below

I guarantee you will get a full hour of training every time! I have owned my own personal training business since 2006. I HAVE DONE NO OTHER WORK THAN PERSONAL TRAINING SINCE THEN!

The entire studio and all equipment is just for you for your hour. You will learn more about your mind and body!

Are you bored and tired with using the same “piston style machines” that take up the majority of space in most gyms? “Progressional Fitness Training “, as well as boxing, is about using a lot of movement, as in life, at many different angles that give you, not just lots of enjoyment, but a healthy and more “human” looking and feeling body!
I guarantee that if you add more angles properly
, that you will have a better, healthier life with less pain as you age.
As an RN* in CCU for 15 years, I saw way too much pain and yet much of it was self inflicted or was there through lack of trying. I I stopped working as an RN because I wanted to help folks from getting into “bad shape ” in the first place. Take care of yourselves! The Trainer

•How to become a member of The Trainer’s Dream Team. (Become a client)
1- schedule a 1 hour FREE consultation to determine if you and I are a good fit. We will discuss your goals and how “we” can work together to achieve them. Please bring plenty of questions.
2- sign a contract for 3 months once a week (all sessions are a full hour in length). See rates below. Most start out with only once or twice a week for the first 12 weeks but after that you may sign up for as many times as you wish! This is for you! I have found over the past many years that if someone starts out doing “too much too fast” then their future fitness endeavors suffer. That is not what I want for you!
3- show up with plenty of passion and a great desire to have fun achieving the goals “you” have set for yourself!Rates: one session $60.00 (not the most cost effective. Scroll down

As of writing this, the least expensive “one on one” training elsewhere in the Columbia River Gorge was $48.00/session. As far as their qualifications? I’ll let you check that out.
