Personal Training

Why spend two hours in the gym when you can get the same results in 45 minutes?

At KES, we want you to live a happier, more fulfilled life. We know better than most that maintaining health and fitness and cultivating an athletic physique is challenging. As you partner with us, you’ll find supportive coaching that will have you achieving and maintaining your goals.

While you are probably already active to some degree, our programs enhance activities you are already doing. Doesn’t matter what it is, bike-riding, yoga, tennis, etc, we want you to be a better you! We’ll work from where you are now.

We see people coming into the KES Fitness program at one of three levels:

This first level is for people who are de-conditioned; that is, someone who hasn’t worked out for over 6 months or more. This can also be individuals over the accepted age-specific body fat norms (as defined by the American Medical Association). People who are recovering from a previous injury or surgery and need a well-selected program that can help them work their way back to health also fall into this category.

What’s common at this level is a need to build the following:

  1. core strengthening
  2. flexibility
  3. balance
  4. muscle imbalance and basic hypertrophy [strength]
  5. cardiovascular enduring (both aerobic and anaerobic strengthening)
  6. good or adequate form in all of the basic exercises that make up the fundamentals in GET FIT.

A teacher can discern that there is also a slightly more advanced version at this level, that is, there may be folks who can do all of the previous steps but still need to focus their training on increasing core and cardiovascular endurance. It is a subtle differentiation but with a gradual process of development, people can feel their progress along a continuum, and notice exciting changes.

STAY FIT is all about maintaining a level of physical health. This group is generally happy with their level of health and fitness but want to push their edge further.

STAY FIT level of health is achieved by maintaining a good level of core stabilization, flexibility, strength and cardiovascular endurance. The focus is on keeping the body in constant motion in order to give individuals an aerobic and anaerobic workout. And the primary goal is to optimize the amount of body fat burned and increase cardiovascular endurance in a short period of time. 90% of these sessions can be done anywhere and maintained in a hotel room, at the beach or on the go.

Participants at this level begin to focus on their own program management. Part of what we do is teach folks how to put together exercise regimens that they can use to maintain their health and fitness for life. It is not uncommon for us to actively encourage our clients to augment their health and fitness exercise program with activities outside of KES.

  1. In terms of specifics, we work to build the following:
  2. advanced core strengthening
  3. isometric and flexibility
  4. stabilization and balance
  5. maximal hypertrophy [strength]
  6. cardiovascular endurance (both aerobic and anaerobic strengthening)
  7. Great or adequate form in all of the basic exercises that make up the GET FIT fundamentals.
  8. Polymetric and full system circuits introduced (metabolic circuit training)

The pre-requisite for this level is the completion of the most advanced level within the GET FIT system. To move to the next level, students have to maintain this level for at least four weeks.

BE FIT is designed for those who desire to achieve an optimum level of performance strength and/or fall into the category of “competitive athlete.” It focuses on maximum power output, high levels of competitive hypertrophy, and VO2 metabolic circuit training for maximum output.

At this level, we help build the following:

  1. advanced core strengthening
  2. isometric and flexibility
  3. stabilization and balance
  4. maximal hypertrophy [strength]
  5. cardiovascular endurance (both aerobic and anaerobic strengthening)
  6. Great or adequate form in all of the basic exercises that make up the GET FIT fundamentals.
  7. Polymetric and full system circuits introduced (metabolic circuit training)

Again, students must be able to maintain at the previous level for at least four weeks in order to progress to the BE FIT level.

During the first session, we will be able to assess the fitness level that best describes you. Let us know your goals too and we will do our best to work toward them.
