General Fitness
____________________________________________________________________
The old fashioned way of training you earn it all yourself.
I use the Marine Corps training and calisthenics along with walking/jogging.
Push-ups, crunches, leg-lifts, back-arm pushups on a bench. Up downs,
Bends and Thursts, 4-count berpes.
These are all forms of general type fitness exercises that can be performed
on any
grass surface or mat/towel.

Boxing
____________________________________________________________________
The simple art of jabs, hooks, crosses and upper-cuts. This sounds
easy but
done one punch after another alternating your feet with circle blocks and
upper
blocks you can really get a good workout.
This not only good for the limbs but for control and balance.
You gain from teaching your body these movements and your body will adapt.

Aerobic/Anaerobic Workouts
____________________________________________________________________
The difference between these two type of workouts is:
one is performed when you can talk normally (aerobic)
and the other is short explosive movements done at or near 100 %(anaerobic).
Aerobic workouts are structured around walking. The time is 15 minutes
or 30
minutes of non-stop walking. The pace doesn't matter when beginning.
Anaerobic sprints performed near maximal output. This type of training
is for
players who play in Anaerobic type sports. This training can vary
depending on
what sport and how long the sport depends on recovery between
sprints.

RICE is the acronym for Rest Ice Compression Elevation. Some people
like to
use heat and ice but it depends on the type of injury sustained. Ice
is usually
applied when players no longer will re-enter the game.
___________________________________________________________________
Plyometrics is a series of different bounding, jumping movements on two
legs or
off one. This is used for athletes who compete in sports that require
a large
amount of jumping such as basketball and volleyball.

Physical Test Preparation
___________________________________________________________________
The people who desire training for agility drills or strength tests
for jobs or athletic
performance testing. I will need the guidelines for the
testing before planning the
training. We will structure training to pass the test.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Football players undergo a combine. A series of tests vertical jump,
bench press
for reps, 40 yard sprint, T-shuttle. They also schedule individual
drills that are
performed against other players who are at the combine. Training would
be
structured to prepare players for these tests.

General Fitness and Workouts
____________________________________________________________________
This is the start for people who don't workout at all.
These are usually people who are looking for a short-cut to losing weight.
They don't like training. In fact they hate sweating and anything
that has to do
with physical training.
They never set foot in a gym and don't plan on it.
They rather eat & drink and just enjoy life.
But someone or something has changed them into at least wanting to workout.
____________________________________________________________________
If your a person that fits in this category than you might want
to start training on
your own. I've heard many of these people say I won't train in the
Gym. I want to
get in shape first and then start training in the Gym. So I understand
why
someone would not want to go to the Gym feeling ashamed about your physical
status.
___________________________________________________________________
If you are in this group then you can begin training on your own (Program
1)
Start out walking.
Park your car further away and walk.
If you got stairs at the job use them instead of the elevator or escalator.
Try and find ways to be more physical.
___________________________________________________________________
Program 1
start by walking 5 minutes away from your place of residence and turn around
and
go back. Hey that's 10 minutes of training. A good start to
training. As it get's
easier you can increase the time and the distance you'll travel.
You'll begin to feel confidence as the walks become easier. You can
increase the
time you head away from home but remember that you'll have to walk back.
____________________________________________________________________
Nutritional Balance
When you begin training your appetite will change. You might find
that your
hungry more often. Some say this is a bad thing. I say feed
the hunger. Don't
starve yourself. How much you eat during one sitting can make a difference
the
next time you eat.
____________________________________________________________________
Let's get down to what is real and what is not.
People who eat healthy constantly are for the most part abnormal.
Asking everyone to eat a certain type of menu for the rest of their lives
is not
practical.
Eat as many times in the day as you want to. Don't eat until your
full. Chew
your food. If you find yourself burping and having stomach pains after
eating
certain types of foods, don't eat these foods because your body is telling
you to
stay away from them.
Preparing your meals is the best way to go. If you eat out don't super-size.
Develop new habits is the hardest part of training. Maintaining
good habits the
rest of your life is a skill that will not take place over night.
Eat light meals that you can easily digest. The proper types of foods
have
already been identified on numerous lists.
____________________________________________________________________
Athletes
Need - Training that is hard enough to experience gains but not hard
enough to
get injured along the way.
A period of rest and recovery is an important part of training.
Athletes who want speed and lateral movement can get this training at a
variety of
specialized facilities in the area.
I do work on this area with athletes. My method is working form, pace,
technique.
Drills done repetitively produce the correct muscle memory response.

Video breakdown is an analysis using game film provided by the client.
I will
watch your games and determine what you can do in training to help you become
a better athlete. We plan a workout and start training.
_____________________________________________________________________
If you have general questions then your welcome to e-mail me your questions.
If your looking for someone to help re-organize your workouts. Then
you can
explain what your problems are and what you do as far as exercises, reps,
sets,
duration of time between sets, your goals, your daily intake of nutrition.
I will try
and send you a response.
____________________________________________________________________
Contact Me First by E-mail.
____________________________________________________________________
You can ask questions and tell me what your problems are. Maybe we
can
communicate through e-mail and I might have some ideas to help you.
___________________________________________________________________
Payment
___________________________________________________________________
Payment must be received prior to the training session. No free sessions
are
available. You can schedule a training session and cancel anytime
without being
charged for it. As long as I don't arrive at the training
site. If we schedule a
training session and you miss the appointment and don't call prior then
you will
be charged for the entire session. Checks will be accepted.
But training doesn't
start until the deposit is posted into my account. I don't accept
credit cards.
Cash is always fine.
____________________________________________________________________
A person can train as many days as they want to. Each person has so
much
time to give to training. Traffic can hold up people. Lifestyle
can also prevent
someone from meeting on time. These events are sometimes unforeseen
and I
will allow someone to have chances. But If it becomes a pattern then
you'll need
to find another person to train you. A phone call is easy to do.
____________________________________________________________________
People like to get something for nothing. All too often in a Gym people
will try
and copy your workouts. That's fine. If you want to learn my
training techniques
and schedule 1 workout. That's fine. If you pay for a weeks
worth of training
that's fine to. You can quit training any time no contracts, no questions
asked.
_____________________________________________________________________
I will listen to clients and try my best to help each individual get what
they are
paying for. I have trained for 25 years. 11 years of coaching
experience from pop
warner to high school. 4 years in the United States Marines.
I worked 2 years
under Marv Marinovich training athletes. I'm comfortable in the knowledge
I have
gained throughout the years. I'm not the only trainer around.
I don't have any
short cut programs or give any special speeches. I believe a trainer
is only as
good as the person they train. My best pupils have been females.
Of course the
most athletic are the players who I trained in preparation for the NFL combine.
If you pay attention and work with me I can help you. If you rather
do it yourself
or train with numerous other trainers who are in Southern California
by all means
do it. They're many good Personal Trainers that can help you.
