Fitness Center Orientation for 14 & 15 Year Olds
In order to ensure a safe and productive exercise environment for all our guests, we require 14 & 15 year old teens to attend a free one-hour orientation session before using the Fitness Center for the first time. Upon completion, teens will receive a card certifying that they have completed the orientation session. They must carry this card with them when using cardiovascular equipment, variable resistance machines and free weights. Orientation sessions are scheduled in advance through the Front Desk. Teens must bring a copy of their birth certificate to schedule their orientation session.

One-on-One Personal Training
Fitness Center Members and 20-punch pass holders can schedule a two-part consultation with Paul Weber, a nationally certified personal trainer. The first half will consist of a sit-down discussion concerning general health, physical limitations, body fat ratio, goals and diet. This will allow Paul to structure an efficient, personalized workout program for you. The second half will be an actual workout with Paul to ensure proper techniques are being used as well as to give you plenty of opportunities to ask questions.

If you need extra motivation and a customized program make an appointment today. If you want to burn fat, increase strength or muscle tone, or stay healthy, personal trainers will help you achieve your goal. To make an appointment, call 847.996.6800.
