Who uses a personal trainer?
The role of the personal trainer is changing. It used to be that celebrities and wealthy individuals were the only people that used personal trainers. The stereotype of a personal trainer used to be that of a big body builder. Today the personal trainer is a highly skilled professional that has been educated and certified to work with various types of clients. Children as young as 7 years old, 80 year old men and women, obese adults, athletes, cancer recovery patients, and adults with diseases all benefit from working with personal trainers. Clients are using personal trainers for: fat loss, weight gain, flexibility, improve posture, alleviate stress, increase energy, rehab an injury, and improve quickness, general health benefits.
What exactly does a personal trainer do?
At Hermitage Fitness Center, our personal trainers are highly skilled and nationally certified, and have many roles when working with clients. Your personal trainer will serve as a coach, teacher and motivator. It is the personal trainer's job to assess your current physical and mental state, establish very specific goals, design an individualized program, and do what ever it takes to keep you on track towards getting results.
Can I workout every day?
You can, however your body needs rest. Remember, when you strength train, your muscles grow when you are at home, resting. It is recommended, if you are new to exercise to start twice a week at 20 minutes at a time, gradually increasing the time to 3 times a week at no more than 45 minutes. Generally, 4 times a week is sufficient to gain muscle strength.
How long does it take see results?
You may begin to see results in the first 4-8 weeks. This depends in large part to your nutrition. You can work out as hard as you'd like. If you do not eat right, you will not get far.
I only eat when I have time, and I'm not seeing good results, even though I eat clean?
Your body's metabolism increases each time you eat! Your metabolic rate will increase with each meal. When you don't eat, your metabolism slows down because it has nothing to do! You are not feeding your body. If you eat every 3-4 hours, not only are you keeping your blood sugar even, avoiding crashing, you are constantly spiking your metabolism!
Can't I just do cardio and lose fat?
This is dangerous because too much cardio can eat away at muscle tissue, not good! Cardio is great for your heart and overall well being. However, to maximize your calorie burning, you need muscle! Muscle is the furnace that burns body fat, continuously! So if you enjoy cardio, that's fine, just don't overdo it, and for that matter, don't over do anything!

My PT has worked with me closely the past year on fitness and weight loss, and the process, as well as the results, has enormously enhanced the quality of my life. -Liz
"Hermitage Fitness Center has become my home away from home. The energy is wonderful and the staff is outstanding. I always look forward to coming here and have lost 20lbs along the way!" -Marilyn
"My husband and I have been very impressed with the staff at Hermitage Fitness Center. The classes are excellent, and the trainers have taken a personal interest in our fitness goals. The trainers make themselves available for questions, even when they walk by, make suggestions as to how to maximize results w/ a particular exercise. In the 8 weeks we have been coming to the gym we have lost close to 20lbs a piece, and it is thru the encouragement of the staff to try new things that helps us stay motivated. -Tabitha
"The staff made my first time joining a gym enjoyable. I could tell that they really care and already I have friends." -Jillian
"Since joining the Hermitage Fitness I have thoroughly enjoyed it. Daily I see the same familiar, smiling faces. I have taken a few classes and the teachers have taken the time to ask my name and get to know me - even chat with me in the locker room. The people at the front desk are always helpful and happily greeting us. If I have had a question or problem it has been fixed in a speedy manner.
"I have been a member for a very long time and enjoy working out at Hermitage Fitness Center. I like my personal trainer and, although she is very tough, she highly motivates me. The club is like a home away from home. There is great comradery between the members and staff. I even come early before my workout to enjoy a cup of coffee......Keep up the good work!!" - Kathy
