Because I don’t look like a trainer. In other words, I’m not here to judge. I’m just a guy named Derek, and because you can feel comfortable with me, it’s easier to feel confident in yourself. I know my way around a workout—whether that’s stretching or yoga, weight training or training for a triathlon—but I haven’t put in 1,600 reps today or eaten a bowl of protein powder. I don’t expect you to, either.

I promise you: You’ll work, you’ll sweat, you’ll probably get sore, but you won’t ever feel uncomfortable.

There’s nothing like a locker-room shower to make you feel, well, like you’d rather be at home. So that’s where (and why) we do this. You get personal attention, a tailored approach to your workout and the complete focus of your trainer. All eyes are on you, so to speak, which is another reason you don’t want to be in the locker room.

You’re running all the time—from meeting to meeting and event to event. So instead of running down to the gym (and wasting valuable time behind the wheel), let’s do your training at home. We’ll work together to define your goals, the types of exercise you want to explore—even diet and lifestyle choices, if you wish.

And then you’ll work your tail off.
