 Q: What is personal training?

 Q: How can I benefit from hiring a personal trainer?

A: There are numerous ways you can benefit from utilizing a trainer. A personal trainer can help pinpoint the specific goals that are important to you. CFR trainers can make sure you reach these goals through a personalized fitness program. Therefore, you know what direction you are taking, instead of being uncertain and taking a risk with your results.

Here are some of the benefits you can expect when working with a fitness coach:

 Q: What is the difference between doing a fitness program by myself and with a personal trainer?

A: There is a HUGE difference between the two! Now, if you are a professional bodybuilder, fitness model, or obsessed gym freak this question does not apply to you. However, if you're the average person looking to get in shape, let's face it…it's a lot of hard work. The two main factors that suffer when training alone are the following:

Motivation- A key ingredient to your fitness success is always staying motivated. When you aren't motivated you usually do the bare minimum. You go through your exercise routine because you feel like you have to, not because you want to work hard or improve. You are not accountable with yourself. You feel as though that occasionally participating qualifies as good enough, even though you know you can accomplish more. Ultimately, the reprecussions of your exercise routine become stagnated. Don't make this mistake! A personal trainer will motivate you!

Guidance- This is very important when starting a Fitness program. When you do not have proper guidance you are taking a risk with your fitness results. For example, if one component of your exercise or nutritional regiment is incorrect, it can jeopardize ALL of your efforts. That means you are basically wasting your time. All of those hard hours in the gym will have been for, you guessed it... NOTHING! Hiring an accountant, lawyer or mechanic for professional services is no different than hiring a personal trainer for obtaining expert advice on fitness. Without fitness and health you have nothing. You owe it to yourself to seek professional guidance.

 Q: Do I get a free consultation?

A: Absolutely! CFR wants you to feel completely comfortable that you're making a wise investment with us, that's why we ALWAYS offer a free complimentary session. We are here to help you...not to jam a sales pitch down your throat! There is no obligation, or long contracts you have to sign with us! If you want that, go to a health club.

Your free session with us entails your health history, fitness background, fitness assessment, exercise demonstrations, and any additional information that you request. Our trainers listen to your needs and will help create a personalized program that will help you get to where you want to be! Fill out a FREE Consultation form and we will call you as soon as possible to schedule a meeting with one of our qualified fitness coaches.

 Q: How can your personal trainers Motivate me?

A: Coughlin Fitness & Results trainers will motivate you in a multitude of ways. For starters, CFR creates and designs productive workouts that will keep you focused and interested. CFR will help you avoid hitting a plateau so that you will not stop seeing results.

We also monitor your intensity, so your workouts are progressively more strenuous than the next and are also beneficial. CFR wants to help you unlock your greatest potential and be the best you can be with fitness programs that are challenging, yet are not overwhelming.

Encouragement is also an integral part of your success with Coughlin Fitness & Results. Having a cheerleader during your exercising makes an enormous difference. A fitness coach who encourages, can give you a good sense of moral support and an extra push when you need it most.

 Q: How can your personal trainers Guide me?

A: Coughlin Fitness & Results always wants you to feel safe with our strategies and confident in our abilities. There are a number of ways CFR trainers can guide you to help accomplish your fitness goals.

First, we measure your frequency or how many times a week you should be training. Just because you meet with our personal trainers, doesn't mean you don't want to exercise independently. When you go on vacation you should still be active. Frequency is a great tool for accountability, and it helps you stay on track.

We offer expertise by telling you what type of exercises you should be performing. Some exercises are difficult or easy, some should be executed in the beginning or at the end of your regiment. It is our job to take out the guesswork.

Our Company also gives great direction by showing you how to perform the exercises correctly. CFR's goal is to coach you with the safest and most effective training techniques.

Another component is duration or the length of your workouts. This is similar to frequency because sometimes you don't feel like doing a 10 minute warm-up, let alone an hour of weight training or other exercises. We'll guide you through it.

Lastly, we offer nutritional counseling. This entails the correct food amounts, specific food combinations, the times of day you should be eating, and, of course, the types of food you should be consuming regularly. Accountability plays a big role in nutrition because it is all done by yourself. We can't follow you home; however we can guide you as to what you should be doing at home.

 Q: What strength training programs does your company offer?

A: CFR offers a variety of strength training programs that are designed to help people with different goals and situations. We offer Sculpt & Strengthen for individuals who only seek one-on-one attention with their strength training routine. Its focus is to motivate and instruct people 1-3 times a week with the most effective training techniques such as free weights, band/tubing, body-weight calisthenics, isometrics, plyometrics, BOSU/balance training and much much more!

CFR also has strength training programs for more than one person at a time called Group Dynamics. This program was created to take the pressure off an individual, and create a teamwork environment that is enjoyable while also challenging 1-2 times a week.

^ Back To The Top

 Q: How do I know what fitness program is right for my situation?

A: It all depends on your goals. It is our job to assess them and then make recommendations you can adhere to that will make your selection process easier.

For example, if you haven't worked out in years and you're trying to lose a significant amount of weight, CFR will not hesitate to recommend our Total Body Makeover program. There is no other program that will help you achieve your weight loss goals faster than TBM. TBM is for someone who is "hardcore" and is not for everyone. Since you meet with a trainer 5x a week it may be difficult to fit into your schedule. If this is the case, we would recommend "Sculpt & Strengthen" - 3x a week. Sculpt & Strengthen is another great program and if you are self-motivated, this program is all you need to get into fantastic shape!

If you are someone with exercise experience and you feel you have the motivation to be consistent and self-sufficient. CFR would most likely recommend "Sculpt & Strengthen" 1x a week, Without a doubt, we know that in the short amount of time you meet with us, you will benefit with your fitness & health development.

We also offer group training for those who cannot afford regular one-on-one training. Group training is much less expensive than the aforementioned programs and is also very effective. If you know someone who shares your fitness goals and is willing to commit to exercise, you'll essentially be getting a qualified trainer at half the cost!

There are many people with many different situations. CFR is confident we will have a fitness program that is perfect for your fitness & weight loss goals!!

 Q: When can I expect to see fitness results with my personal trainer?

A: As long as you are following the fitness program created by your personal trainer, you can realistically expect to lose 1-2 pounds of fat per week. Remember that you don't want to follow scale weight. This does not accurately measure your progress; it will also drive you crazy. Just pay attention to how your clothes fit. Fat takes up 5 times more space then muscle does, so if you are not losing weight, or gaining, it's because muscle is replacing your fat.

Results may vary for each individual and you must realize that nothing happens overnight. So, all of those clever fitness scams, extreme diets, and other quick-fix programs DO NOT apply with Coughlin Fitness & Results programs. Having a fit and healthy body takes hard work and determination. Just be patient. Have faith in yourself and in your trainer and you WILL accomplish the fitness results you desire.

^ Back To The Top

 Q: What if I'm not seeing results, can I get my money back?

A: Yes, you can. If you followed the exercise and nutritional programs exactly the the way your Fitness coach designed them for you, and you still are not seeing results then Coughlin Fitness & Results will refund your entire investment. We are however confident that this problem will not occur! We guarantee you will be happy with your progress!

 Q: Where can I workout with my fitness trainer?

A: Coughlin Fitness & Results personal trainers service their clients in their homes, their apartment complexes, their office facilities, outdoor locations, or eligible gyms in the your area. In-home training is only charged by the fitness program you choose. Eligible gyms charge a membership fee and you additionally pay us for the program that you prefer.

^ Back To The Top

 Q: Can I receive better results from a gym or in my home?

A: This greatly depends on your fitness goals and your schedule. Both locations may yield the results you want. It's just good to know what you are aiming for.

For example, if you are a busy mom of two and you want to lose those stubborn 10-15 pounds, but you don't want to join a gym because it is inconvenient to drive, plus you don't want to leave your kids with people you don't know, and additionally you prefer a more private setting, then, in-home training may be a good solution. Progressive resistance training performed in-home, mixed with cardiovascular exercise, and good eating habits will help you lose those 10-15 pounds.

On the other hand, if you are a middle aged guy who is overweight, and you want to get into the shape of a bodybuilder, then joining a gym may be a better idea. When you join a gym there are many different types of machines, so you will have more options at your disposal to work your body at a greater intensity. Being in a gym environment can also be very motivational, whereas for some people being at-home does the opposite.

Wherever you choose to train, CFR is flexible to your needs and schedule and guarantees results in any location.

 Q: Will I need to supply equipment if I want in-home training?

A: No. Coughlin Fitness & Results trainers provide all the equipment you need to whip your body into great shape. Trainers usually carry free weights, stability balls, bands, bars, medicine balls etc. CFR personal trainers can also perform manual resistance, which requires no equipment at all.
