There are many, many benefits to incorporating Health & Fitness into your life. The obvious benefits are:
And the less known benefits are:
The JCC Personal Training Team is proud to offer you the tools to be successful in living a healthy and fit life. Thank you for taking this time to learn about our program Mission, about our tremendous Team, about our extensive Facility, about our ever-expanding Services, and about our team Philosophy, as we strive to make a difference in your life. Our Mission As the leaders in developing, educating, motivating and implementing JCC Health & Fitness programs, we are committed to providing the tools and techniques for instilling a healthy lifestyle in our members and the community at large. L’Chaim! (To Life!) Our Trainers Our Personal Trainers and our staff are the best in this community at large! As a team of certified trainers, we take our role as a Salt Lake City professional service very seriously. We all have credentials from at least one of the high-end national certifying studios around the country. We continue to study exercise physiology, the human body, best-of-class programming, sports performance, nutrition, mental training, and more Industry trends. We are committed to your health, each and every one of you. To you, this means results. We coach with your individual goals, strengths and limitations in mind. You are unique and we understand that. Our Fitness Center Our facility is nestled within 80,000 square feet of useable training space, including a 3,000 square foot Studio offering state-of-the-art cardiovascular and resistance training equipment, a gymnasium, a running track, indoor/ outdoor pool and surrounding terrain options, a rock-climbing wall, (4) four tennis courts, and miles of friendly outdoor trails! Whether you’re looking for fresh air outdoors during your warm-up or a magnificent view from the track while doing lunges, our Personal Training Team is committed to your health in and outside of our Studio. Feel free to request alternate locations around our facility for your training pleasure, if you’re not prodded there from the start! Our Services Personal Training clientele consists of both male and female clients of all age groups, from youth through older adults, who want to improve their overall health and fitness or enhance peak potential. Programs consist of cardiovascular training, muscle strength and endurance conditioning, flexibility, post-rehab, sports specific conditioning and nutrition. You name it, we can coach it! Private training sessions are most beneficial to quickly hone in on tangible goals, and nurture your trainer-athlete relationship. We encourage you start here if it’s your first time, to become comfortable with your self in a coached environment and develop a trust in your coach. You can utilize these packages in any way that fits your schedule and budget. If you're tight for time, just use 30 minutes with your trainer. We'll make it short and intense. If you want a more comprehensive workout, schedule an hour session. If you're the type that enjoys a really challenging workout, try a full body 90-minute session. Our team will make this fun, even if you think exercising can’t be! Partner training sessions pick up the energy and the noise a notch- the energy from spectators around you and the noise within your training duo! What a great way to bond with a colleague, spouse or sibling, strengthen sport-specific application, or merely up the fun factor. The hour is recommended here as a 30-minute intensity session is too short. Friends + Family Small Group training can take the round table discussion to the punching bag or be bootcamp preparation sessions for upcoming travels. This environment is extremely dynamic to offset a plateau fitness program, stir some new passion for exercise and encourage proper patterning on others. Take advantage of the cost advantages here! Group Training takes the small group concept to the Group Fitness Room. Depending on size, multiple trainers are needed for this service. Discipline-specific focus is recommended, i.e. hip hop dance, strength training, sports conditioning, given the group size and time restriction. This format is a great means for team-building! Our Philosophies …About Coaching We are here for you as developers, educators, motivators and implementers of the message of health- to point you in the right direction and to help you give 110 percent each effort. You will get out of ‘it’ what you put in, and we expect you to match the 110 percent in. …About Resistance Training We promote regular patterning of resistance training for it’s many benefits. In addition to building strength and aesthetic change, we highlight increased bone density, improved endurance and motor performance, strengthening of soft connective tissues (ligaments and tendons), elevated metabolism, lowered risk of sports injury and improved daily function. And research has found that weight training can increase spinal bone mineral density by 13 percent in six months. So strength training is a powerful tool against osteoporosis. There’s no reason not to do it! …About Genetics Each of us is born with a set of genetics that determine our uniqueness. This includes our body's skeletal-muscular structure and our predisposition for retaining bodyfat. Some of us don't gain much bodyfat no matter how much they eat or how little we exercise. Others are on the treadmill four days a week, just to keep fat levels constant. Some people gain muscle very easily or are able to develop particular body parts with ease. Others struggle hard to add a centimeter to their biceps. None of us, however, can change our basic genetic makeup. But you can work hard to take your body to its full potential and see dramatic changes regardless of genetic predisposition. This is where we come in! …About Genetic Potential We profess peak performance as optimal, while ‘plateau-ing’ is the pits! Most people who have been working out on their own for a long period of time eventually hit a plateau and stop seeing benefits in body composition, strength, or power/ speed output. We often reference "genetic potential" as that point where gains slow down and sometimes stop altogether. However, even taking genetic factors into account, we find that in most cases the plateau is due to the inability to push ourselves to greater heights in our patterning and regimens. Without steady "overload" stimuli and varying types of routines, gains will not be made. Peak performance lies due to adaptation of the body through recovery following progressively overloading the system. We follow these guidelines. …About Obesity We are committed to fighting this epidemic head on, as challenging as it is. The number of Americans who are profoundly over-fat, or obese, is on the rise as the disease affects about 50 million people in this country alone. There is no question that the development of a new healthy eating and fitness lifestyle is immensely helpful in winning this fight, therefore our Mission. We promise to take healthful measures to inspire success, whether an interface with a client’s physician and/or therapist to construct proper programming, or making the check-in phone call to deter a ‘fridge raid’. …About Fat Loss We prefer you to think in terms of "fat loss" instead of "weight loss." The aim of getting in shape is how you look and how healthy you are. Changing your body composition so that you have less fat and more muscle is healthy. Since muscle weighs more than fat per cubic measurement, absolute weight loss should not be the sole measure of your success. The basis for losing body fat is using more calories (an energy value of food), in daily metabolism, activity and exercise than you take in through eating and drinking. It takes about 3500 calories above those utilized to gain one pound of fat. The reverse is also the case. Using up 3500 calories above those taken into your body will cause a reduction of one pound of fat. Therefore, to effectively lose fat, the bottom line is to restrict your calorie intake and increase your calorie output. …About Toning or Building Our clients will often specify whether he or she wants to "tone" or to "build" muscle. Usually, but not always, women want to "tone," while men want to "build." Each person seems to have a pretty good idea of what kind of physique she or he wants. Toning and building muscle, however, are basically the same physiologic process differing mainly in degree. For reference sake, we define a toned body as a lean body, one low in body fat and showing some muscle definition and shape. By building muscle, again for reference, we reference one developing as much muscle as possible up to and including the traditional bodybuilder's look. …About Metabolism Your metabolism slows as you get older. This is primarily due to a decrease in muscle tissue. After the age of 30, your body gradually begins to lose it's muscle. If your activity level stays the same and the amount of calories you eat stay the same, you will still gain weight because your metabolism has slowed down. However, if you exercise with weights and do some type of aerobic activity on a regular basis, you probably won't notice much of a change in your metabolism as you age. …About Nutrition We understand that nutrition is a critical component to living a healthy lifestyle, and we are committed to providing you the education and tools you need to be successful. Our Nutritional Specialists Team will unfold October 1, 2005 so we can best serve our mission and you. Please see page [insert page number for nutrition article] to learn more about this Program. …About Massage Therapy One of our strongest allies in promoting a healthy balance is a Massage Therapist. It's not just athletes and celebs who appreciate the stress-relieving benefits. Many of today's health problems can benefit from massage therapy because the manipulation of soft tissues affects so many of our bodily systems. The benefits of massage are extensive. Treatments will have a therapeutic effect and improve health by acting directly on the muscular, nervous, circulatory and lymphatic (immune) systems. Massage therapy is also effective in the control of pain, chronic or acute, in stress reduction, and in creating a sense of relaxation and well-being. For more information about our JCC Massage Therapy Program, please see pg [input page number from newsletter]. …About our Team We balance each other out tremendously well!

He is wonderful for training for sport-specific activities and is always helpful in working with minor injuries. I didn’t realize I had any loss of mobility in my shoulder until I tried to do something that made it ‘twinge’. Doug stretched it out and now the mobility is restored!” -Suzanne Attix, JCC Athlete Jack Miller Hobbies: Photography, cooking, SCUBA diving, listening to jazz, watching movies, reading, personal growth and development Claim to Fame: Using scientific principles, personalized training programs, and individually custom tailored nutrition plans to get you results quickly while improving your health.

Because I was new to weight training I wanted to start off right. Jack listened to what I wanted to accomplish and based on my results, I can say he definitely knew what I needed to accomplish my goals. What consistently impresses me about Jack is the way he stays completely focused on me during training sessions. That kind of attention has really paid off. I am more than pleased with my results. In addition to all the training, the nutritional guidance and individualized menu plan that Jack provided helped me continue in my weight loss program. I lost a total of 60 pounds and have dropped four dress sizes. I find Jack to be a professional and knowledgeable trainer who motivates, and takes his client’s health and fitness very seriously.” -Sheri Wyomissing, PA Elizabeth Shannonhouse Nickname: Libba…please use this! Hobbies: Mountain biking, whitewater boating, photography, hiking and camping, skiing Claim to Fame: 10 year veteran whitewater river guide (east coast) – might not be funny, but definitely was fun! Certifications / Credentials: MS, Exercise Science; Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist, National Strength and Conditioning Association. Libba has spent five years working in orthopedic rehabilitation at The Orthopedic Specialty Hospital in Salt Lake City and spent two years working in rehabilitation with back injury patients in Oxford, Mississippi.

Libba continues to work as an Exercise Physiologist at The Fitness Institute at LDS Hospital, and works as a Health and Fitness Consultant for an online consulting firm. Training Philosophy: Libba’s philosophy centers around core training as the backbone to sports performance, rehabilitation from injury, and overall functional health and wellness. Strong muscles do not guarantee injury prevention and performance gains. Understanding the biomechanics of movement patterns in the weight room as related to real life posture and performance is vital to maintain as well as improve health, wellness, and sports performance. Areas of Specialty: Core training; Sport Specific Performance, Physical Performance for Daily Activity; Injury Rehabilitation; Fat Loss & Muscle Mass Increase. Client Testimonial: “For the past five years I have had children in the JCC Early Childhood Education program and until I worked with Libba I never used the weight room at the JCC. I love to ski and hike but was not at all comfortable doing strength training. Libba taught me how to safely use the weight room. Her extensive knowledge has helped me to improve my core strength, overall fitness level and commitment to regular exercise. She uses her experience training high-level athletes to make workouts for active people fun and interesting. She customized workouts to prepare for the sport I needed whether it was backcountry skiing or cycling, and I saw a real difference in my ability to perform. Libba will make your workouts as challenging as you want but she will do so with a smile and the intention of improving your overall health for all aspects of your life.” -Annabel Sheinberg, JCC Athlete Jenny Larsen Shannon Mulder Senior Level II Trainers Karan Estee Hobbies: Whitewater kayaking, Mountain Biking, Yoga, Telemark skiing and Backcountry Snowboarding Claim to Fame: Whitewater kayaking instructor teaching classes here at the J!

Goal-setting is my strength and finding ways to motivate each client uniquely is critical. I’ve done my job if I can keep you coming back to the gym and staying active in your fitness regimens. Of course during our time together, we focus on well-rounded regimens, full-body focus with strength and flexibility. Areas of Specialty: Stabilization Training, Senior and Special Populations, Functional Training for Daily Activity, Fat Loss and Healthy Living Client Testimonial: “I began training with Joy in March 2004. This is my first experience with regular exercise. I am 69 years old. I have had 3 one-hour sessions weekly. The emphasis has been on strength training, flexibility and balance. Cardio-vascular instruction is included and is a small component of each one-hour session—prolonged cardio is done on my own at the JCC under the advice of Joy. Joy has planned each workout so that I am pretty well tired out at the end but have never been sore or injured. She has progressively increased the intensity and duration as my condition improved. We do work on many of the machines in the main room but also do a lot in the room across the hall on mats and balls. There is no question that I am fitter than I have ever been. I have more stamina and feel less fatigue than I did before the exercise began. My blood pressure has decreased to about 80/140 from 100/165 (with medication). My resting pulse rate has decreased from 95/ minute to 75/ minute. My waist size has dropped from 38 inches to to36 inches—although that was not one of my goals. I am extremely happy with these results. Each workout is intensive but does not force an injury. I would be happy to recommend Joy as a personal trainer to anyone of any age or degree of fitness.” -Robert Ehrlich, JCC Athlete Novice Level I Trainers Tracey Anderson Hobbies: Hockey, rowing, hiking, ice sports, swimming, x-skiing, friends and family Claim to Fame:Too many funny ones, it’s hard to pick just one!

I particularly admire her skill in empowering young people and instilling a respect for fitness. She is sensitive to all ages and levels.” – Linda, JCC Athlete Brooke Morris Nickname: Brookus Hobbies: Skiing, Running, Biking, Traveling, Rock Climbing, Reading, Photography, and Family time Claim to Fame: A citizen of New Zealand Favorite Fitness Regimen: Leaving a workout feeling as though I have achieved my cardio and strength training goals within the same hour. Credentials: BS in Health Sciences, ACE Personal Trainer, Schwinn Cycling Instructor, AFAA Group Fitness Training Philosophy: Train Today for Tomorrow. By living a healthy lifestyle now, that encompasses healthy habits, good nutrition, and consistent exercise, that includes a variety of resistance training, cardiovascular training, flexibility and mind/body health, we can change the effects of aging and the ever-increasing risk of disease that may threaten our tomorrow. Areas of Specialty: Functional Training for Daily Activity, Senior and Special Populations, Nutrition, Junior Development, Cycling, and Water Fitness Client Testimonial: “For the past six months, I have been under close observation by Brooke. She has been guiding my eating habits by recommending I eat more often with less calories to keep my metabolism level throughout the day. She put me on a weight and stretching program as well. Since, January, 2005, I have lost 37 pounds, have gone from wearing a size 42 pant to 38, and size 19 neck to an 18. I owe all of this to Brooke, and I can’t thank her enough! -Steve M., SLC Athlete Josh Shannon Hobbies: Martial Arts, Mountain Biking, Miniature Painting, Camping, Reading Claim to Fame: Trained with the 7-time World Freestyle Jump-rope Champion Certifications/Credentials: N.E.S.T.A.
