Too busy to get to the gym?  Is the drive a hassle?  What about the kids?  Breakfast or dinner?  Don't know how to get results even when you do get to the gym?  Workout growing stagnant, have you hit a plateau while others are making gains? Just not comfortable with the whole gym setting and energy?

Time, intimidation and lack of results is no longer a reason anymore - it's an EXCUSE!  Power of Progress is your in-home personal training and fitness class connection.  We come to you!  No need to go to the gym, you can now train in the comforts of your home, condo complex gym, clubhouse, or outdoors.

Power of Progress is...your in-home personal training & fitness class connection

Exercise Your Options
You have invested time and money in your educational well-being, your financial well-being, your business' well-being, and hopefully your family's health and well-being.  But when was the last time you invested in yourself? 

We at Power of Progress understand how difficult it is to make it to the gym after a long day at work and dealing with Vancouver traffic.  We understand the day of a working mom, and a stay at home mom.  We also know how many people out there are wanting to rid themselves of those 5 to 10 pounds that have managed to settle themselves oh so nicely in areas we give such adorable names to as "love handles" or "muffin top".

We understand that you have busy schedules, which is why we provide you with the opportunity of choosing your workout times.  We will do our best to accommodate your first choice, however, by allocating more than one choice (either with regards to days and/or times) you will provide us with the opportunity to find the appropriate certified trainers/instructors dedicated to providing you with the coaching, encouragement, guidance or positive reinforcement you require, to help you achieve your fitness goals in a timely manner.

In addition to seeing actual RESULTS and building endurance, our tailored workouts will help you achieve the following:
  • Become as healthy as possible
  • Offer you a challenging, full-body workout
  • Achieve the best body and self-image you can
  • Increase energy
  • Decrease disease risk
  • Feel good inside and out

What can I expect from Power of Progress personal training?  You will receive personalized fitness feedback, fitness guidance and education. Our certified trainer(s) will help you perform the movement properly, with proper form, therefore getting the most out of the exercise.  Knowing the ins and outs of the exercises they recommend, our trainers provide individualized attention needed to learn how to avoid injury and maximize the efficiency of each repetition.  Trainers design programs specifically for individual needs.  Many individuals want to lose body fat, lose weight, gain muscle or all three.  While hiring a personal trainer will help achieve those goals, the experience provides so much more than improved appearance.  Those goals, the motivation you receive and the way you feel, will transfer into your everyday life.

What can I expect from Power of Progress classes?  In addition to working out in a small group environment, you will receive personalized fitness feedback, fitness guidance and education.  All classes are lead by a certified professional fitness trainer that is committed to your personal success.  In addition, our programs give each person the opportunity to meet new friends in a supportive and fun environment that makes working-out an exciting experience, and all that more enjoyable.

What if I am not physically fit?  Power of Progress recognizes each person at their current fitness level.  No one will be left behind and no one will be asked to complete more than they are capable of doing safely.  Regardless of your fitness level or ability you will be able to participate.  You WILL be assisted in your fitness journey.
