NETWORK TRAINING

Ever heard of circuit training? Network training is an improvement on the concept. Exercises are carefully selected and interlocked into a rhythmic order. Networking is the strategy that unites exercises for resistance, flexibility, core-stability, endurance, and breathing into an exciting flow that burns calories, tones muscle, builds power, strengthens the heart, and enhances body-awareness.

RESISTANCE TRAINING

The key to toning and building muscle, connective tissue and bone is resistance. Resistance is provided by free-weights, pulleys, and the gravitational force of your own body weight. Resistance permanently increases your fat-metabolism, triggers the release of restorative hormones, reverses the process of muscle loss associated with aging, and protects you from injury in everyday activities.

FLEXIBILITY TRAINING

For injury prevention, good posture, and sense of bodily ease in everyday life. Both Static and dynamic stretching are used to increase limit-flexibility and functional range of motion. Flexibility lets you feel loose and young.

CORE TRAINING

Stability of core musculature along the spine, abdominal wall, and rib cage is the foundation of safety, balance, and agility in daily life and sports. The core training synthesizes techniques of Pilates, Yoga, and Stability-Ball.

ENDURANCE TRAINING

Training for endurance improves the function of your heart, lungs, circulation, and fat-metabolism. Endurance exercise helps regulate blood-cholesterol levels, prevent cardiac disease, and delivers oxygen-rich blood to the brain, which helps protect you from age-related loss of memory and cognitive functioning.

BREATH TRAINING

The simple act of breathing is unique because it is at once voluntary and involuntary, controlled by both the central nervous system and the autonomic nervous system. This is why breath training can quickly calm your mind, reduce tension, and promote body-awareness during exercise. Breath training is a central feature of yoga, martial arts, and health psychology. Breath training links the physical techniques with the following psychological techniques.

AUTOGENICS

Autogenics means "caused by the self." Nearly a century old, it is a simple and powerful technique that eliminates stress and produces a state of relaxed alertness. Autogenics has been extensively researched and used therapeutically for many common ailments such as high blood pressure, ulcers, and anxiety. It is also used by athletes to improve mental focus and physical performance.

IMAGENICS

Imagenics means "caused by the image." The power of the imagination to affect the health of the body and mind through the creation of mental pictures has been extensively researched by the medical industry and is currently used in hospitals for both physical and psychological therapy under the name of guided imagery. Imagenics enhances every positive result of GIFT by aligning your mind with all of your physical effort.

INTERACTIVES

Mutual communication develops awareness that surpasses both your internal experience and the training you receive from me. There is a third force born of interaction. In an ongoing dyad of communication, ideas and feelings become clearly formed goals, which orient you with ease to better fitness. Tailoring the training to your specific needs is my fundamental concern. The "personal" in personal training is more than just a word.
