Personal Training is ALIVE & THRIVING!

Personal Training has always been about helping someone achieve their goals through a structured fitness program. For 16 years and counting I have serviced 20,000+ individual training sessions and have met so many amazing people along the way. From someone just starting out, the person getting married, turning 40 or 50, post surgical rehab, seniors, neuro-diverse, or anyone looking for guidance in the gym, PERSONAL TRAINING IS FOR YOU.

There is nothing more terrifying than trying to navigate a gym on your own. Sure there are machines everywhere, but knowing how to properly use them, what muscles are being targeted, or if that machine is even a good fit for you is just a short list of what a Credentialed Trainer can do for you. We are trained and educated on how to make your personal goals make sense, and how we will achieve them by following a personalized training program designed for long-term, lifelong success. In my personal experience, most people don't want to pay someone to hold their hand and go from one machine to the next. Show them how to use the machines so when they come to the gym on their own time, they know what is expected and also how to use everything.

Personal Training at its root is Personal and that is how programming should be, it is never ego driven and most general populations don't need to train at the level we do. They simply need help at improving their quality of movement, building baseline levels of strength, balance, and mobility paired with simple nutritional guidance to align with the demands of training and everyday life. Making someone do endless amounts of burpees and crushing their legs just show how incompetent of a trainer you are and that you simply do not care about your client, let alone understanding basic principles of long-term programming. People aren't paying us to torture them or to restrict calories, they are paying us for our knowledge, expertise and to help them feel a little more badass each day.

In the past 6 months we have doubled the amount of personal training clients at our gym Altamont Performance Lab. While we are a full-time Athlete Development Facility focusing on Year Round Strength and Conditioning, working with the general populations was something our building was missing. What we do at APL isn't just for athletes, strength training and being "strong" is for everyone and it is something we pride ourselves on being able to connect with so many people in our amazing community.

Adrian has lost 20+ pounds in 3 months following is own personalized training program.

Adrian was new to town and needed help losing some weight and gaining his confidence back. Strength training was brand new to him, but he was very eager to learn and start attacking his goals one by one. We started with an assessment that allowed us to better understand Adrian's goals as well as seeing him perform basic movements to find out where his baseline was. Having my Level 1 Precision Nutrition Credential also helps me educate Adrian on the importance of his macro nutrients and better understanding of his daily calorie needs. Now fast forward almost 4 months Adrian is still training with us 3x every week and has lost more than 20 pounds! You can see it in his face just how healthy he has become, his strength is through the roof and his performance has changed completely!

Like I said earlier, personal training is one of the most rewarding professions around. We get to help people become better each and everyday while getting to wear shorts and t-shirts year round. Being comfortable and doing something that I truly love is what makes me the wealthiest guy on the planet. I'd love to help you or someone you know start this strength inspired journey, my email is always open at vinny@altamontperformance.com

I look forward to getting stronger and healthier together!
