“Remember, everyone has wants, needs and limits that are unique and tied to their health and fitness goals. Our trainers are here to design customized programs that fit all parameters of all client wants and needs!”

At AB&F we understand that often times it takes more than just exercise to obtain most fitness goals. We have compiled a list of services to assist you in your transition to the fitness level you’ve always wanted. Enjoy!

You work one on one with a certified fitness/boxing/ Thai Kickboxing trainer. You will work with formulas, customized to your needs and similar to those used by actual fighters (minus the getting hit part) that have stood the test of time for strength, endurance and fat loss (head to toe). Prepare for the mind and body experience that will carry over into all aspects of your life. Depending on your goals, resistance training with bands, exercise balls and free weights is also incorporated for the full body experience. Have fun!

We always want you to enjoy your workout. Making it a more social experience could be the trick to achieving your optimal physique. Friends and family offer great support as well as boosting your commitment through friendly competition. The regimen is structured very similar to individual training.

As an evaluation tool, we use The Neuromuscular Efficiency Evaluation using 5 Kinetic Chain Checkpoints in the basic anatomical movements (push, pull and squat). Upon completion we will be able to determine where a potential injury could most likely occur. We stabilize, strengthen and provide preventative conditioning to those areas to allow for overall physical balance and health.

With increasing scientific knowledge, we now understand that the once common household weight scale is an inadequate tool for health determination. It has been determined that overall health is more clearly assessed by the comparison of lean muscle mass to body fat, commonly known as body fat percentage. People with higher body fat percentages are more at risk for heart disease, Type II diabetes, as well as orthopedic problems. Determining your body fat percentage will enable us to set goals for you and give you a fast yet reasonable time frame to reach those goals.

With most people suffering from neck, back, hip, knee and even ankle pain we must look at a direct cause for these discomforts. A common source of these problems is often an injured or inflexible muscle group. For example, weak hamstrings or abdominal muscles allow the pelvis to shift one-way or the other. This shift into a less than optimal position allows for uneven pressure on vertebrae, often resulting in lower back pain as well as increasing your susceptibility to serious and life changing injuries. An analysis of your posture by an AB&F professional can help us determine the source of the pain and discomfort. These findings help us determine the proper regimen of corrective stretching and strengthening to take to solve your specific problem areas.

To reduce the risks of injury it is imperative to integrate a stretching routine into your program. Proper stretching will increase the extensibility of the muscle and aid resistance exercises by allowing a greater range of motion. SMR (self-myofascial release) is another form of assisted stretching. It requires applying gentle force to a “knot” (elastic collagenous fibers in a bundled position) so that if may release and realign with the other muscle fibers. This is not considered a soothing, or while being performed a relaxing experience, rather, a therapeutic regimen to aid in the release of troubled spots within muscle as well as the prevention of injury.

Development of a healthy body fat percentage can take some effort. Our trainers, through personal research as well as educational seminars are up to date on diet fads as well as nutritional knowledge. We want all of our clients to understand the pros and cons to these diet fads. We also feel it is important for our clients to understand the basics and benefits of nutrition, cardiovascular endurance and resistance exercise with regard to body fat storage. We will give you the tools to successfully manage your body’s resources and to help you reach and surpass your personal health goals.

Let’s face it, most of us don’t have the time to design perfectly balanced meals-let alone count the calories in protein, carbohydrates, and fats everyday. Let us help you reach your desired fitness level by teaching you how to read labels. By knowing what to look for and what to avoid (at a glance), you will be able to take a time consuming concerted effort and turn it into a fast and fun mindless process! Based on your goals and food likes and dislikes, we will construct meal plans for you that are easy and appetizing.

We at AB&F have some very interesting hobbies (scary to most), nutrition being one of them. We make sure through personal research as well as educational seminars that we are current on the latest diet fads as well as possess the latest nutritional knowledge. We help to convey that message to people in a way that is easily understood as well as applicable to every day life. Some people only have the time to eat fast food in the middle of the day…we help those people to factor those meals into a healthy and fun lifestyle. Some people “need chocolate” that’s ok too, help us help you see how that can be incorporated into a nutritional plan that works for you body type.

The demands of a chaotic workday as well as the constant pressure you endure, is felt mentally as well as physically. The mind and the body are forever connected in a daily grind that wears on the strongest of minds and bodies. Give your mind and body the break it needs with a relaxing massage. An invigorating massage can be used to reduce physical pain and tension while stimulating your brain through the release of endorphins. Imagine feeling more awake, while being physically relaxed and balanced as you walk into that important meeting!

Fitness clubs offer a variety of machines and exercise equipment…do you use them all? Of course not, we will assist you in choosing the right equipment for your home/office gym needs, we also coordinate ordering and delivery. No more waiting for that piece of equipment someone is always on. Once in place, we can create a personalized fitness program and provide you with proper instruction for each exercise as well as management and equipment upkeep for your new exercise facility. If you’re tired of the busy gym scene or just don’t have the time to make it to the gym, let us help you workout effectively from the comfort of your own home or office. A little BONUS: Current tax law allows employers who provide on-site fitness facilities to deduct the costs of those facilities as regular business expenses, and employees who use the fitness centers are not taxed on the value of that benefit. Call today for a free consultation.

We all desire the energy of our youth! With the growing rate of obesity in our country, we at AB&F see the importance of educating and instilling exercise into the lifestyles of children.
