Personal Training Information

Are you new to exercise? Have you wanted to improve your workouts? Do you have questions about fitness? If you answered yes to any of these questions, NU's personal training program is right for you. Our personal trainer can help you get into the right routine for you. We offer a variety of personal training packages to fit any needs you have. Our packages are as follows:

The first session consists of a fitness evaluation. The personal trainer will sit down with you to discuss goals and current fitness questions. You will then perform an initial fitness test to gauge your exercise capability. Lastly, you will be given a body analysis test to determine weight and body fat percentage.

In the sessions to follow, you will be provided with a customized workout routine that will help you meet your exercise goals. The personal trainer will walk you through each step so that you will be able to perform the workout by yourself.
