These are two of my good friends. Adrian (left) is only in his early 40s and was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease several years ago. He trains his butt off with me 3-4 days a week to slow the progression of the disease and alleviate the symptoms. He is a fighter! Nael (right) is still a rookie, but he's quickly become one of my favorite people. Like me, he wasn't blessed with the genetics of Thor. But he's got a heart the size of Texas, and he gives me everything he has every single time we train. He asked me today when we took this picture, "you sure you want a fat guy in your training picture?" I said, "are you kidding me? Get in here!" When I look at these two guys I don't see a sick guy and a short, chubby guy. I see warriors. Make the Decision Personal Training is a very personal thing. You have to be ready. You have to be dedicated. You have to be ready to make the decision to be a stronger, healthier you, AND, find the right trainer for you. At Georgia Personal Training we customize each individual's training program to fit them. [...]

Personal Training Can Help You Avoid Workout Injuries

By matthew lein|2023-09-18T00:29:13+00:00April 19th, 2017|Georgia Personal Training|Comments Off on Personal Training Can Help You Avoid Workout Injuries

Getting to the gym is half the battle of getting started on a physical regimen. The last thing you want to do is hurt yourself while there because this could set you back weeks or months on achieving your goal of weight loss or fitness. If you are new to the gym, it’s a good idea to start out with a personal trainer because you are at a greater risk of injury if you don’t. That’s because you may not know how to use the equipment and use poor form due to your lack of experience lifting weights or doing certain types of exercises. Here’s what a personal trainer can do for you so you avoid the pain of workout injuries. An Education in Exercise Personal training is essentially an education program personalized for you. It teaches you how to use weights and machines, including the appropriate form that will keep the pressure off your joints and help you determine which exercises are the best for you at each point in your weight loss or fitness process. The education includes how much to do of each exercise and, if weight is involved, how much weight to lift for your [...]

What to Eat to Help Gain Muscle Mass

By matthew lein|2017-04-03T14:28:49+00:00April 3rd, 2017|Nutrition|Comments Off on What to Eat to Help Gain Muscle Mass

Now that you have made the decision to embark on your fitness and health journey with personal training, you not only need an exercise regimen to follow, but you also need to change how you eat if you want to help gain muscle mass. While I am not a licensed nutritionist, I do have years of fitness training that has involved developing a diet that has helped me and numerous clients gain muscle mass by feeding their body the right food for weight training. Here are some great tips related to what you can eat to help build muscle mass: Lean beef should be central to your diet because it is packed with protein as well as iron, zinc, and B-vitamins. The amino acids within the lean beef help to promote muscle growth in combination with insulin. Just consume it in small portions of no more than six ounces at a time to help fuel muscle growth. Boneless and skinless chicken is another good muscle food. It is packed with protein that helps maintain and repair muscles while also providing benefits for weight and bones. It’s a versatile food that you can enjoy many different ways so you don’t get [...]
