Meet Your Trainers

Short workouts produce results. Whether your goal is fat-loss, "wedding arms,? or improved quality of life, let me show you how a properly conducted strength-training routine can help you achieve your goals. Reach your goals in less time than you ever thought possible. How do 30-40 minute workouts sound? The line, "I don't have the time," does not work anymore.

"I'm a very active person, dance, fitness classes, tons of cardio, even lifting 3 times a week, but i was still struggling to take off the last few pounds and get the look I wanted. When I started working with Chris I thought his method was crazy. How on earth would training once or twice a week for 20 minutes do me any good? Still, I knew what I was doing wasn't working. He created a program specifically tailored for me and pushes me through on those days when it seems like too much. Well, it?s been two months with his ?crazy? training and I've lost a size and reduced my body fat by 6%! Can't wait to see what happens next!!" Lori S.

I have been a personal trainer for several years. Over that time, I have worked with people of all ages with varying fitness goals. I have trained high school athletes, pre- and postnatal, women and men, and special populations. I was trained by the Arthritis Foundation for aqua and gym classes in 2000. In 2001, I became an ACE exercise specialist. Since that time I have worked with clients who are stroke victims, those suffering from MS, and Parkinson patients. In 2006, I became a Silver Sneaker Leader. Being a Silver Sneaker Leader has expanded my knowledge of the needs of the mature adult, addressing the ways in which fitness enhances a long and active life. Around this time, I became certified as an Exercise Specialist for the Older Adult from the Cooper Institute of Dallas Texas.

For the past seven years, New You Personal Training Services has provided health care services to over 400 clients in the metro Detroit area.

Eddie specializes in weight loss / body toning and his clients often boast about achieving their desired results sooner than expected. His belief is that a lifetime of health and fitness begins with attitude and the willingness to learn.

The people that I work with get more than just great workout, they gain education as well. I believe that the trainer-client relationship needs to be much more than just an hour workout. I put together a ?road map? in terms of getting you from point A to point B, making sure you are doing the right things outside of our time together to achieve your goals. Different people have unique goals and each need a plan of attack suitable to reach them. Whether you desire to be a power lifter, have a health condition that needs to be addressed, or just really want to lose some weight, get in shape, and feel a lot better about yourself, there is a plan. I have been a certified personal trainer through American Council on Exercise (ACE) since 2003.

I have always had a passion for health and fitness. As a mother of five children, I understand how busy people need to get creative to make time for their health. It is my goal to help my clients discover the physical activity that will spark their interest enough to make fitness a lifelong pursuit. There is nothing more exciting than seeing a client that couldn?t run around the parking lot run their first 5k race. I am certified by the American Council on Exercise, CrossFit, and BOSU.

Exercise is what your body needs! Just a short workout a day can bring so much relief and joy to your life and have such a positive impact on yourself and even others. I am currently certified through American Council on Exercise(ACE) and I also have my Occupational Degree of Associate Science in Personal Training. I am a former Florida Rugby strength and conditioning coach. I look to give you the confidence and attitude you need to reach your goal(s). I will spread my knowledge of the body as it pertains to fitness to you. I will show you the correct forms and techniques to all sorts of exercises to reduce harm and injury to your body. My goal is to reach YOUR goal as fast and as safe as possible!

As a Personal Trainer and Fitness Educator, my goal is to help meet the current demand for a higher quality of life, functionality, and sports performance, while focusing on your abilities and restrictions. If your personal fitness goals include weight loss, cardiovascular training, core strength, or are sport specific (Golf Fitness, Lacrosse, Basketball, Football, Triathlon Training, etc.), I'm confident that with my 10+ years of experience helping my clients achieve their goals, you and I can achieve your goals!

I teach people the ?rules of the body,? getting them from A to Z as quickly and safely as possible. In my 12 years of working as a certified personal trainer and boxing instructor at One on One Athletic Club, I have worked with people whose goals range from weight loss to athletic performance, from ?knock outs? to carrying laundry baskets up the stairs. Your time with me will be spent in the free weight room, as you learn how your body works. What you learn in that time will get you results in the most efficient way possible.
