Personal Training...

Health Coaches is a state-of-the-art, private fitness facility where all clients work one-on-one with certified personal trainers.

We're called Health Coaches because our emphasis is on helping you preserve and optimize your health. Our goal is to provide a superior, safe, customized health and fitness regimen, devised by the area's best-trained, most respected trainers.

If your goals are as ambitious as training for a marathon or as modest as regaining flexibility, whether you need injury rehabilitation or sports-specific training, Health Coaches will help you achieve results.

In a private consultation, you and your Health Coaches trainer will analyze your lifestyle, your exercise and medical history, diet and nutrition concerns and your specific goals and objectives. Based on this information, your trainer will devise a program that is yours alone. We don't work from a template. You are unique, and your Health Coaches program is uniquely yours.
Regardless of age, body type or fitness level, you will benefit from a customized program at Health Coaches. We offer weight training, cardiovascular conditioning, flexibility training, exercise for home or travel, stress management techniques, nutrition and wellness counseling - all tailored to your needs.

 

The Health Coaches Difference...

From your very first session, Health Coaches introduces you to the most crucial part of the personal training job: Training you to work independently, training you to train yourself.

Health Coaches is a private gym, with no waiting for a machine or equipment, so you will spend all of your time working with your trainer.

Health Coaches personal trainers have the right credentials. All trainers are college graduates. They are highly educated experts in the fields of exercise physiology, nutrition and the psychology of motivation. Our clients receive the benefit of that education, experience and dedication.

Health Coaches will help you increase your motivation, decrease your risk of injury and ensure that you will train at your peak performance level all the time.

 

What They're Saying About Health Coaches...

 

“I began work with Mark Holmes when I realized that the pain I was in needed to be addressed. I knew a hip replacement was in my future, but needed help now! From the beginning, we focused on improving my flexibility and strength, working around the limitations that my hip represented. As I prepare to have my hip replaced I am in far better shape then I was a year ago, and am confident my recovery time will be shortened as a result of our work together.

“I have worked out with Mark Holmes two days a week since September of 2003, along with at least two days a week of aerobic activity on my own. During that time I have seen a dramatic change in my body composition, specifically more lean muscle mass and improved core strength. This has allowed me to have more endurance for the activities that I enjoy, such as hiking and cross-country skiing. Mark has been able to adapt my workouts as I have improved and also to work around my injuries, so that I have challenging workouts that are within my limitations. I would highly recommend Health Coaches.”
- Deb Roy, Scarborough

 "Erica Napuli helped identify my needs. Erica designs the progressive workout to meet agreed-upon goals to achieve overall fitness. All I need to do is show up and do the work. Without her, I know I don’t have the discipline to do it on my own. In addition, Erica works with me on good food choices as well as cardiovascular fitness to complete the package. I have been sick less and more productive since I have begun to work with Erica."

Effective – workouts with Jon Allen were always effective. Adult onset polio, weight gain and age had taken their toll on my physical well-being. Walking through airports or even just a day of shopping was hard for me. So originally I signed up for 10 sessions with Jon to work on walking with greater ease and to be stronger. Every session was 100 percent individualized and each one completely different. We always worked hard and we always laughed. Three months later, I made significant progress toward my goals and have set some new goals. Jon has a unique approach to working out that produces wonderful results.

 I have known Susan Ahlers for several years. In search for a personal trainer, she was referred to me as the "best in the business" and she lived up to that reputation. Susan is very well-trained and well-educated, and highly respected by her colleagues. For me, she was a gift, strengthening me, educating me and teaching me the best ways for maintaining my physical and mental health. (They really are connected!) Along with her professional skills, she has a wonderful way of engaging her clients, and what could be monotonous turns out to be challenging and fun. Susan is a woman of intelligence, integrity, and dedication. Those of us who have had the opportunity to work and learn from her are indeed very lucky!
