Sports Specific Training After a great 2008 season playing in the district playoffs, these two key team members didn't stop there. They're training and getting ready for the senior year season right now. Competitors beware, they're smiling now but we've seen their game face when it's time to play and work out hard. This is the stuff champions are made of... Way to go girls! Attention Working Moms... Professional Personal Training I am a very busy working mom with two young boys. Over the last few years I have had little to no time to breathe let alone take time for myself to exercise. I really thought that getting back into shape would never happen for me. I finally decided that I had to make time for me and my own health and well being so I started walking and using exercise videos. A few months into it I noticed very little change overall and became frustrated after spending my time and energy with nothing to really show for it. I came to the realization that I needed guidance to figure out what would really work for me to produce the kind of results I was looking for. I decided to hire Joe Green at Fit For You as my personal trainer to help me. I quickly realized that I was doing all of the wrong exercises and that I was wasting tons of time. Thanks to Joe that all changed. He designed a program specific for my needs and goals to get the results I wanted – and I'm thrilled to say, I got the results I was looking for and then some. I have lost all of my post baby weight, transformed my body in terms of muscle tone and I love the extra energy that I have. What a difference and it feels so good. I am so glad I invested this time in myself because I feel great and I am a better mother in so many ways. I must admit when Joe said I only needed to carve out 20 minutes in my schedule to exercise I thought it was impossible. Well guess what ladies, You Can and the results are not only great, I've been able to maintain my results for well over a year now! Thanks Joe for all you do for me, I love the results!! Jennifer Tanner I Made The Right Choice. . . Fitness Classes & Nutrition My name is Dolores Liptak and I am a 64 year old retired management consultant. I was looking to reach all of my health and fitness goals. I wanted to lose weight, increase my strength and with summer fast approaching I was also interested in reducing my waist size. I chose Joe based upon a referral from a friend who utilized him, looked terrific and highly recommended him as someone who really "knew his stuff." I am happy to say that over the past year I have lost 18 pounds and I feel so much better in my clothes and my energy has absolutely improved. I feel better especially now that I have been able to discontinue my cholesterol medicine and certain other arthritis medicines. I have used Joe's expertise in various ways. I have worked with him privately for personal training and nutrition and I have been through a boot camp and very much enjoy his total body fitness classes which I attend on average three times a week. The recipe for success has been a combination of my commitment and work ethic along with his expertise and supportive attitude towards me and anyone else no matter where we are in the process. I appreciate his strong sense of integrity and enjoy working with him. I very much enjoy the weekly fitness classes which helped make this time around different in working towards my goals with exercise on a regular basis. The fitness classes are loaded with exercise variety and the other women who participate are fun and real! I continue to recommend Joe to others and hope that others are motivated to give this a try. This is what the practice of a healthy lifestyle should be like. Thanks Joe! Dolores Liptak "I Found The Perfect Solution For Osteopenia" Women's Fitness Programs March 14, 2008 I have been on a mission for the last 2 years at least to build muscle and strengthen my bones. In 2005 the Dr. did a heel bone density and it came out to –1.6. My doctor wanted to prescribe Actonel, I refused at that time. In February 2006 I had a full bone density test and the results were not good. The overall rating was -3.6 and I was diagnosed with osteopenia. I have always participated in some type of exercise along with regular walking. My doctor convinced me that I really needed to take Actonel, so I did. I took it for about 10 months and then stopped taking it. I just didn't like all the side affects and was not convinced that this was the answer. I started using the Highmark Fitness Center in late 2005 thru January 2007, which consisted of using equipment to build muscle. As a Blue Shield retiree the Fitness Center was free for me, so if it was working that was OK. However, I became very bored with it. For Christmas in 2006 my daughter gave me a gift certificate for classes at 'Fit For You' with Joe Green. She had been going and really liked the classes. So I decided to try it out in February 2007 and have been going ever since. I just had a full bone density test on March 10, 2008, and there has been improvement to a rating of -3.1. That's 5 points to the good, which it is said that it's difficult to reverse these numbers. However this number needs to continue to increase to at least a -2.0. I attribute all my accomplishments and success to Joe Green. He makes it fun and non-routine, I always look forward to each and every class. When I started last February, 3 pound weights were heavy for me, now I can work with 8 pound weights with ease. I have gained more strength and muscle by his workouts than any machine could do. I know that fitness classes will be necessary for the rest of my life and I plan to continue these with Joe. He is an excellent trainer, Thanks Joe! Kay Brinkley I'm Better, Faster And Stronger Sports Specific Training I am 17 years old attending school as an 11th grader at Cedar Cliff H.S. I am involved in school activities, community service and my church. School activities include Varsity Volleyball, Varsity Soccer, NHS, NAHS, NLHS, Student Council, Chorus, Class Secretary, several clubs, and the school musical from program design, to sets, to performing. I also play Club Volleyball and Club Soccer. My interest in working with Fit For You Fitness Pros began after Joe's Youth Sports Mini-Training Camp for the 2008 Cedar Cliff High School Girls' Varsity Volleyball Team. I felt the results and immediate improvement and realized the personal benefit of the training so I signed on to stay in peak condition all year–round. No doubt, I am in the best physical shape ever. I've always been really active motivated in my desire to play sports but I needed something more to be the best I could be especially with playing soccer in college as one of my top goals. I have truly elevated my game to a whole new level and it really feels good to know that I am in the best shape of my life. My coaches have both realized and commented on my improved physical conditioning and overall play so now I am getting more quality playing time and I am leading the team. My parents and coaches have commented that my personal self-confidence and determination has really improved a lot. The Fit For You Fitness Pros staff has really helped me to reach my goals, in fact I've already committed to a college to play soccer. Thanks! Taylor Saraiva
The Healthiest & Happiest I've Ever Been!

That has carried over into my pursuit of a healthy lifestyle. Joe has truly made my journey to become the healthiest I've ever been a real success. I bring the desire and he provides the intensity, the added motivation and knowledge to get the results that I had only dreamed of. I have learned new innovative ways to exercise both inside and outside of the gym. I am armed with the knowledge and skill necessary to achieve the level of fitness that I want. I appreciate his passion and "teamwork" approach towards my health and fitness goals. We make a great team and I recommend you get on board on get him on your side so that you can enjoy the real benefits of finding out just how the right exercises and nutrition can work for you. Now friends ask what I am doing, how I did it and what exercises to do. The compliments are inspirational but the results that I am wearing are even better. It feels really good to be me and you can do it too. I have accomplished all of my goals and now I have set new ones. The last six months have been a really exciting period of transformation for me. Thanks Joe for the added push and for coaching me to achieve my personal goal of excellence. Stephanie Foltz You're Never Too Old To Change! Women's Fitness Programs Since I started working with Joe I have found a brand new "me." I love what I see now when I look in the mirror. Of course everyone always wants to look even better no matter how good they look but my friends and doctor have all told me how fantastic I look. It may not have happened over night but this exciting change did happen and it's real. Sometimes I have to pinch myself I am so thrilled. I have dropped down in my clothing sizes, in fact I've had my clothes altered a few times. I lost several inches everywhere and I feel stronger and better than ever before and it shows. My clothes fit better, I have more energy and I'm in total control. Thanks to Joe my whole life has changed from the size of my clothes to my self- confidence. I want to tell everyone that if I can do it at age 74 than you can too and you can do it all with Joe and his staff by your side. I enjoy attending challenging fitness classes and fitness contests that Joe creates. I learned how to eat without dieting and I am in the best health amongst all of my friends. Give Joe and his programs a chance, stick to it and hang on because the results are well worth it. Thanks Joe!! Leah Kleiman "Fitness Can Be Fun" Professional Personal Training & Nutrition My mother and sister both have severe osteoporosis so my family history raised issues of concern for me. I no longer liked the way that I felt or how I looked in my clothes and I had been thinking for some time about joining a fitness center, but didn't feel I would utilize the facilities or that I would get enough personal attention. I saw Joe's ad on the marquee and heard good things about him from others who had worked with him, so I called and set up an appointment. My initial goal was to simply lose weight. I have learned the truth about what it really takes to be healthy and fit and how to achieve it from the inside out. I've come to find out through working with Joe as my personal fitness coach that there is more to total body fitness than just losing weight. I am losing inches, building up muscle and eating healthy without dieting or starving myself! I have been working with Joe for 3 months now. Losing body fat and inches safely has made it all worthwhile. I have dropped at least one size and will soon be down another size. My energy has increased and my knees no longer cause me any pain. Just another great bonus! Joe has really made the difference for me and I intend to keep working with him to further enhance my results. His blend of professionalism and great sense humor has helped me to stay to motivated and to enjoy working towards my goals. I love the personal follow up emails with exercise tips and healthy recipes. Every session is FUN!
Together We're Making Tomorrow Better And Better! Clinical Exercise / Wellness & Nutrition As I near the two-year anniversary of those dreaded words "You have Parkinson's," I am taking some time to reflect upon the journey. It took months to tell my family because I didn't want to have Parkinson's. I tried a second opinion, hoping for better news, but to no avail. Eventually, and I am not sure when the turning point occurred, I had to deal with the diagnosis. And so I have learned all I can about the disease, commiserated with others with PD, formed a truce with my neurologist and accepted help and support from others. You are one of the people who have supported me. I know that I am getting stronger under your guidance, and I feel better physically than I have in a year. My left leg no longer drags and walking has become much easier. I take your advice seriously and rarely miss a day's work out. The nutritional advice that you occasionally contribute is also appreciated. Eliminating salt, increasing my water intake and eating a banana a day helped my edema. You are aware of the most current research in PD and it is a pleasure to share information with you. As I worked through changing medications you told me about the positive experiences of your other clients while reminding me that each PD patient is different. You push me each visit to work a little bit harder, and you seem to know how hard to push. Neither one of us pretends to know what the future holds; yet we remain positive and hopeful. I have and will continue to recommend you to others. Your competence and professionalism are superb. I look forward to your continued support and guidance as I face whatever the future holds. Thank you once again for being there! Jane Yingling, What Joe's Wellness Program Has Done For Me. . . Clinical Exercise / Wellness & Nutrition I am pleased to enthusiastically recommend the professional services of Fit For You Personal Training and Nutrition in the person of Joe Green. I consider it a fortuitous opportunity to prolong my life by significantly improved health and fitness as a result of my wife's meeting an old friend who recommended Joe. I am a fifty-nine year old professional who was forced to retire from a successful law practice last year because of my inability to handle stress as a result of many significant health problems. In addition to my family physician, I have been under the care of a cardiologist, endocrinologist and neurologist for Parkinson's disease, diabetes and coronary artery disease and thus I am symptomatic as to all three with the necessity of taking twenty-three different medications each day. It was on the advise of my neurologist that I sought out an in-home personal trainer to improve my well-being and slow down the progressive neuro-degenerative nature of my Parkinson's disease. Considering the alternative, the decision to invest the funds and commit myself to it was easy. Joe designed a program for me that took into consideration my poor health and physical condition at that time. The nutritional importance receives equal emphasis from Joe. My eating habits and food intake have changed completely in two months, with an understanding of the process that is taking place as a result of Joe's teaching. I should mention that as a result of seeing Joe three days a week, I think I have come to know him. Joe is extremely knowledgeable about nutrition and the body with a good personality for getting the best effort out of his clients. He is a pleasure to work with because of his "team" approach and his genuine concern for "our" success. My accomplishments have been nothing short of tremendous, realizing of course that I was starting at ground zero. From not being able to bend over and pick up something off the floor, I now have flexibility and mobility that I haven't had in years. My overall health has vastly improved with even my sugar being in normal range. I see and feel the benefits and while they might not be as significant as time goes on the results speak for themselves. I encourage anyone who wants to improve their own health and fitness not to mention their confidence and well being to meet with Joe of Fit For You and undertake the opportunity to enjoy the same benefits and results I have. Many Thanks Norm Hetrick "Exercise With Joe Really Makes A Difference" Clinical Exercise / Wellness When we think of what is really important in our lives (besides family) we think of independence, self-respect and of achieving our dreams. When first handed the diagnosis of Parkinson's all of this is challenged, roadblocks of self-doubt block our way and we begin the challenging journey. What to expect is in all of the literature and the choice becomes abundantly clear, we can sit back or choose to be proactive in our health. Thanks to Joe Green and his expertise in working with those like myself who face the daily challenges of a debilitating disease like Parkinson's. Joe's program has been about more than exercise and nutrition. I have truly discovered what I need to do to participate in maintaining the greatest level of health possible for me. Joe works with me relative to exercise and nutrition to help manage my condition. Best of all Joe is my partner and my friend; he's right there with me and celebrates my successes and encourages me during my trials and setbacks. Bottom line, you can keep your independence, you can retain your self-respect and with Joe's help you just might achieve even more than you bargained for. Thanks Joe for encouraging me to take action! Sincerely, "My Sports Performance Improved!" October 4, 2010 My name is Danika and I play on the soccer team at my local high school. I decided to look into working with Joe based on the high recommendation of a friend who also plays soccer for a different high school team. After my consultation with Joe I was excited about working with him to help me reach my sports performance goals. I wanted personal training instead of group training to get all I could out of working on my sports conditioning, strength and game time play. I really like the environment and feel really comfortable working out and giving my all while I ‘m there. I enjoy Joe's challenging workouts and feel a real sense of accomplishment after every workout. The workouts cover so many different aspects of the game, my run technique and the efficiency in my movement overall helps with the skills needed for the position I play. I feel the difference I am much stronger both on and off the soccer field. I feel great about the results I have had so far. When I apply what I have learned from Joe everything is so much easier for me. I am faster and stronger with more energy and everything continues to improve more and more with every workout. If you're considering Joe's sports specific training program it's a must. Joe has helped me with his wide range of knowledge. He can improve your game in so many different ways. It's well worth it. Thanks Joe! Danika Another Success Story October 25, 2010 In general my biggest challenge was to find a program that would not injure me. I knew that the exercises and things I did in my twenties were not going to work for me any longer. I was considering personal training when a friend referred me to Fit For You so I researched the program and talked to Joe about my personal fitness goals. It was clear to me that this program was going to be different in that my exercise and nutrition program would be customized to fit me and my lifestyle. I travel approximately 5 miles from my office to Fit For You two days a week unless I am able to make it to one of their fitness classes. My program has been personalized to meet my needs and level of fitness for where I am at today. I feel motivated, I feel great, I've had great results and l look forward to each and every session. What I like most about the trainers at Fit For You is their ability to adapt individual exercises to meet my needs for the greatest results possible. When one exercise isn't right for me, my trainer immediately adapts and modifies the exercise to avoid strain or injury, yet yield the same results. I like each trainer's dedication to designing the right program for me while making and keeping the workouts fun and enjoyable. I sincerely look forward to seeing my trainers, Heather and Stephanie who have also become good friends as well my personal fitness coach. I can always count on working hard, seeing results and having fun. I have worked out in gyms and attended many aerobics and spin classes. By far Fit For You has the best workout atmosphere, no mirrors, no waiting around or guessing what to do next. These trainers are fitness pros and their expertise makes the difference. I am happy with my results and look forward to reaching all of my new goals. I would highly recommend this program to anyone looking to make a worthwhile investment in themselves. I hope that my experience inspires someone else to join and try out this program. It's not like the old gym routine, it's much more than that! Thanks, "I'M BACK AND IT FEELS GOOD!" October 22, 2010 I needed something different because I was tired of doing the old gym routine, feeling uncomfortable and getting no results from my workouts. I needed something more this time around. I wanted to increase my strength and gain muscle tone. I really wanted to look better in my clothes and feel better overall. So far my experience has been tremendous. I've lost almost 15 inches!! My clothes are fitting better and I'm wearing clothes that I haven't been able to wear in a very long time. Each day I feel more and more confident and to me that is a tremendous feeling in and of itself. For the first time in a long time I don't try to avoid looking in the mirror because I really like what I see. My trainers Joe and Heather have been so supportive, giving me the encouragement, the motivation and laughter along the way. I feel very lucky to have found such a wonderful team to help and support me on my personal journey. I still have more goals that I want to accomplish and I'm excited about the results to come. My experience has been phenomenal and this program provides me with exactly what I need, real and permanent changes for a healthy lifestyle that I can actually maintain. I love the program here at Fit For You. It's simple and easy to follow and the staff supports me 100% and that has really made all of the difference in the world in how I feel about myself. My biggest challenges included breaking bad nutritional habits and reconnecting my relationship with food in a healthier way. I'm learning to take small and powerful steps to make the kind of changes I need and it really works. This is a really do-able system. I'm back and feeling better than I have in such a very long time. Anyone out there who wants the kind of results I just described should look no further because it's all right here. Thanks to:
