Why we are Different...

      The fitness and weight loss industry is plagued with quick gimmicks, useless ideas, and downright dangerous ideas on how to improve your physique. At My Personal Trainer not only is our goal for you to reach yours but to also educate you on proper exercise science, and physiology so that you’ll never be fooled again by all the other nonsense in the industry.   In short we want this new positive lifestyle change to be permanent for you!

-Eric Schaefer, CEO


Our program simplifies the process of transforming your physique by focusing on two fundamental principles: building muscle and burning fat. We achieve this through a combination of tailored progressive exercise and nutrition strategies.


Rather than overwhelming you with countless options, we prioritize proper, progressive, cardio driven exercise, and nutrition. Our goal is to help you sculpt lean, calorie-burning muscle while shedding unwanted body fat.


What sets us apart is our efficiency. You don't need to spend endless hours in the gym. In fact, most people who overtrain may experience setbacks like weight gain, muscle stagnation, or injury. Our approach ensures that you achieve tangible results in as little as 20 minutes, just twice per week.  Just don’t take our word for it, come experience this program for yourself.

RESULTS DRIVEN

One of the most important aspects of our program is that we consistently measure each client’s results. Our educated trainers make sure you are losing fat and weight while gaining lean muscle and strength, and improving balance, flexibility and bone density.

At My Personal Trainer, we are dedicated to stopping people’s endless frustrations with the fitness industry and reversing their negative experiences with positive results. Our unique purpose-driven protocol is based on elite-level equipment in a private, non-intimidating gym setting with a one-on-one trainer. All you need is two, 20-minute workouts each week. This infrequency in progressive training allows the muscles time to rebuild properly and creates lean muscle mass. Repetitions on our high-tech machines are executed in a slow, safe, controlled manner to fatigue the muscles without putting stress on the joints, bones and connective tissue. While many trainers turn away those with disabilities or conditions, we believe if you can move, you can improve. We’ve helped our clients change their fitness levels, even if they suffer from pre-existing conditions such as fibromyalgia, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, disabilities, cancer, diabetes, balance trouble, weak backs and knees. Motivation and accountability are the keys to our program. Your success is our success.

FAQS

  • HOW OFTEN SHOULD I EXERCISE?

    If you exercise correctly and progressively you don’t need to exercise every single day. The exercise stimulates the result, but the body’s recovery ability produces the result. Many people over-train, which can lead to strength plateaus, unnecessary weight gains, or injury. That’s why our program is twice a week to give ample time for our average client to recover and in return we can get awesome results fast and safely!

  • DO I NEED TO DO CARDIO IN ADDITION TO YOUR PROGRAM?

    Our workouts are cardio-driven. There are no breaks moving from machine to machine during the workouts which in turn keeps the client’s heartrate elevated the entire time. In addition, the heart and lungs don’t discriminate against the muscles. If you could run on a treadmill it would take roughly 7 hours just to burn one pound of fat. Who has that kind of time?

  • ALL I NEED IS 20 MINUTES, TWICE A WEEK IN YOUR PROGRAM?

    Your body does not understand time or days of the week. All it knows is the demand placed upon it through the exercise. It’s not about how often or how long you train but how hard you train. When you raise the intensity with anything the time is greatly reduced. Our workouts aren’t time-driven but results-driven.

  • IS MORE WEIGHT BETTER THAN MORE REPETITIONS?

    Gradually increasing one’s strength is the best. To do so, the resistance needs to be progressively increased. If you use the same weights or resistance each time you exercise, you’re never going to get stronger and change the look of your physique. 

  • HOW YOUNG OR OLD SHOULD YOU BE TO DO YOUR PROGRAM?

    “If you can move you can improve.” During our long history we’ve worked with clients in their eighties and as young as twelve. Our program has a high emphasis on safety, so that we can work with a wide range of clients. Slow repetitions to limit momentum and using proper form under supervision are the keys to the safety of our program. We can also work with a wide range of pre-existing conditions such as fibromyalgia, arthritis, MS, disabilities, cancer, scoliosis, diabetes, balance trouble, weak backs and knees.
