Training
We focus on functional training using full body exercises, This means that you will use your big muscle groups first and also use the most muscles at the same time. Most importantly, you will develop a strong functional core. This will help you walk taller and carry more grocery bags at the same time.

Our training is not only the most efficient use of your time, but it will provide you quicker results than any other type of training. Because we use full body exercises, you will use more muscles at the same time. 

This is the complete opposite of how most other personal trainers will train you. They will show you how to use machines and if they do use free weights, they will focus only on single muscle groups with finishing exercises without actually improving your core functional muscles. Machines were designed for rehabilitation purposes only and to use light weight to help repair injuries. Medicine balls, well let's just say we won't ever waste your time by putting you on a medicine ball. Not only is the type of training offered by most other personal trainers not efficient and not effective, it can also be very wrong for you and can produce injuries. Why? Because by training only specific muscles individually, you stand the chance of becoming out of balance and out of balance muscles set you up for injury.

An Experienced Mechanic for your Body
You want your body to be in great shape. You want to find a traininer that is experienced in real world training and not just a trainer who studied a course on how to train.

When I was required to move to another province for a two year project, I needed to find a new mechanic for my car. Being very particular about who worked on my car, I wanted a mechanic that I not only trusted but one that really knew what he or she was doing. When I arrived in the new town, I drove around after normal closing hours to see the different repair garages. Most were closed of course, but one was open at midnight. Lights were on and the mechanic was working and in the lot there were several racing stock cars. This meant to me that this mechanic was experienced in performance tuning and he took his work seriously.

I took my car to get repaired to this racing mechanic. And, I was very pleased when I picked up the car all fixed. Not only did they fix my car quickly, but they cost less because they worked quicker and on top of that, he said he fixed and adjusted a few more things on my car that they saw needed adjusting and they didn't charge me any extra for it. That's the value of a real world experienced professional.

Loose Weight, Get in Shape!
The key to losing weight is both developing the right eating habits and the right training. Diets don't work! They may help people reduce weight very quickly, but just as quickly people who diet bounce right back to the same weight. Ross Saldan will help you find a menu and eating program that you will be able to maintain and will allow you to stay at your goal weight. There are many approaches for this and they depend on your lifestyle and your goals.

Coaches
A coach and personal trainer is important because they will help you keep a schedule and show up for training. Ross works by supporting your success and not by focusing on faults or problems. The greatest motivation to continuing any program is constant improvement and seeing success in small pieces and goals achieved.

Choosing the right personal trainer to work with you is an important decision. Work with Ross as your personal coach and your will see results quicker and you will see that you chose the right coach.
