Building Better Baseball Players

By matthew lein|2015-04-13T00:26:27+00:00April 13th, 2015|Baseball Skills Training, Baseball Strength & Conditioning, Georgia Personal Training|Comments Off on Building Better Baseball Players

Baseball Specific Training Designed To Produce Next Level Ballplayers Matt Lein, played high school and youth baseball in the Roswell and Alpharetta area. He played his college ball at Wofford College. After completing a very successful baseball career, which included being named to the Collegiate All-American team, Matt came back home to Roswell and opened a 24 hour Anytime Fitness Center and a personal training facility called Georgia Personal Training. The two businesses are co-located at 9420 Willeo Road, Roswell, Georgia 30075. The gym and personal training center operate from suite 105 and 106. Matt began playing baseball at the age of 5. He actually turned his first double play in T-Ball. With a player at first and Matt playing second base, the batter hit a ground ball that Matt fielded. He tagged the runner headed to second and ran over to first to complete the double play. At that very moment, it was clear that Matt had a real knack for the game. He played infield from the time he started playing, until the day he wrapped up his playing career. During that time Matt dazzled in the field. He routinely flashed his really sweet glove skills. What set [...]

Personal Training Delivers Results Do you every find yourself saying, today I am going to start losing this unwanted weight? We mean well, but, somehow we just seem to let life's challenges get in our way. How many mornings, just over the past month, have you gotten up and told yourself, today is the day I start training? Lets be honest for a moment. My guess is the answer to the two questions above is, both have happened frequently. For most of us, we can visualize doing exactly what it takes to lose the weight. We all tend to see ourselves like we did when we were younger. Remember those days? We ran frequently. We ate all that we wanted and we never seemed to have a problem with our belt being to small or needing to buy new, bigger cloths. What we all forget is, mother nature tends to slow our metabolism as we get older. Once the metabolism starts to slow, our bodies begin retaining more fats cells. Our bodies store that fat, thinking we are going to need it for all the exercise that we normally do. The problem is, we are now working all the time [...]

Time To Lose Your Winter Weight

By matthew lein|2015-03-04T10:04:40+00:00March 4th, 2015|Georgia Personal Training, Personal Training|Comments Off on Time To Lose Your Winter Weight

It's Time For Spring Training! Anytime 24 Hour Fitness | Georgia Personal Training 9420 Willeo Road, Roswell, Georgia 30075 Winter is one of the most challenging times of year for most of us. For me personally, I truly struggle with the cold and fewer hours of daylight thing. Oh, I am not about to whine about it mind you. I simply don't like to be cold! Lets face it, we live in Roswell, Georgia. We enjoy working out, running, biking, hiking and boating. All those great Spring, Summer and Fall activities. For most of us who were raised in Georgia, the idea of skiing, bobsledding and dog mushing just isn't what we wake up excited about. My personal issue with Winter begins the minute they tell me I have to turn back my clock by an hour for Daylight Savings Time. Mind you, I have no problem with the Spring forward piece of that equation. It's the Fall back for Fall that just strikes a nerve in me. The minute I hear Fall Back, I think oh great, it's going to be dark before I even get home from work. By the time I think about going out for a [...]

Morning Workouts Fire The Engine

Morning Workouts Can Enhance Your Life Personal Training For Busy People Our recommendation is, workout early in the morning. An early workout can really be beneficial to your body and to your psyche. When you workout in the morning, it super charges your body and mind for the busy day to come. Many of the clients we serve love morning workouts. Their metabolism kicks into high gear and the feel great for the entire day. The morning workout allows their bodies to start burning fat, early in the day. At the same time they are getting a head start on burning fat, they also get to enjoy other side benefits such as more energy and increased mental focus at the office. Here is a quick science lesson. Your body slows down your metabolic rate and lowers your brain temperature while you sleep. In effect, your body is repairing any damage from the previous day. Metabolism uses two processes to break down and build up molecules in your body. These processes are called, anabolism and catabolism. Anabolism relates to the build up of molecules, while catabolism controls the breakdown of molecules. In laymen's terms, your body uses these processes when storing molecules [...]

24 Hour Gym Access Meets Needs Of Busy World

By matthew lein|2020-01-21T12:47:24+00:00January 18th, 2015|24 Hour Gym, Cardiovascular Fitness|Comments Off on 24 Hour Gym Access Meets Needs Of Busy World

24 Hour Gym Access We live in an extremely complex world. People face lots of pressures and challenges each day. Great jobs can be difficult to find. People who have one must work hard to keep them. People who haven't been as fortunate find themselves working several jobs to make ends meet. Employers face ever increasing competition. To stay competitive, they continually ask more and more from the people they employ. Families with children find themselves going in multiple directions during the week. Their days driven by the need to ensure their children are able to participate in their favorite activities. Single parent households find themselves under even more pressure. Any of this sound familiar? Unfortunately too many of us find ourselves buried in challenges. Far too often, we cave to the pressures and make wrong choices as to our personal needs. Instead of paying attention to our health, we ignore the need to workout. Instead of focusing on a healthy diet, we eat the quick and convenient foods. How often do you stand on the scales and tell yourself, I have to loose weight! I am going to start eating right and get back to working out! That my [...]

What Are Your New Year's Resolutions? Well it's that time of year again. New Year's Eve is right around the corner. Most of us have already begun reminiscing about all the of great things that happened for us in 2014.

A few moved on to new adventures and opportunities outside of the great state of Georgia. Next week we will finish our progress reviews with each personal training client who is actively working with us. We will be going over their goals and accomplishments from 2014. Nothing is more fun and looking back on commitments training clients made last year and seeing the tremendous progress they made towards achieving those goals during the year.

By matthew lein|2014-12-11T14:58:29+00:00December 11th, 2014|Expresso Exercise Bikes, Spin Bikes|Comments Off on Expresso Exercise Bikes Are Here

Expresso Takes Indoor Cycling To The Next Level A Truly Interactive Workout Experience! We purchased our first Expresso Fitness Bikes back in early 2009. We bought them shortly after we opened our Anytime Fitness 24 hour gym. In addition to the Expresso training bikes, we also bought a great selection other training bikes as well, including; spin bikes, recumbents and traditional exercise bikes. Without fail, the majority of our bike riding gym members always seemed eager to jump on the spin bikes and/or the Expresso bikes. What makes the Expresso bike ride so cool is the truly interactive ride that the bikes provide. Each Expresso training bike comes with a large screen video display monitor. These monitors are linked to a super sophisticated internal computer, which is in turn connected to the worldwide web. Each rider can create their own Expresso account. They can login each time they ride and the system provides them with details on their previous rides. They also can see the performances of other riders, from all over the world, who have also ridden the same courses on the Expresso bikes. Each rider is then ranked based on their best performance on each course. In essence, [...]

Evan Moore

By matthew lein|2014-10-25T00:42:56+00:00October 25th, 2014|Baseball Strength & Conditioning, Fitness, Personal Training|Comments Off on Evan Moore

Evan Moore Freshman Of The Year - Alpharetta High School Evan Moore has been a personal training client of Matthew Lein for more than 4 years. Evan started working with Matt when he was approximately 12 years old. He is now in his Freshman year of High School at Alpharetta High. Evan has shown great dedication in all of the speed, strength, agility, hitting and fielding work that he and Matt have done. Evan's parents were introduced to Matt four years ago. They quickly saw the passion for training baseball players that Matt had. In conversations with him, it was evident to them both that Matt not only possessed the baseball skill and talent level that their son hoped to achieve, but, he also had the practical knowledge and ability to transfer that knowledge and information to other ballplayers. Evan immediately enrolled at Georgia Personal Training and has been growing as a baseball player and as a person since that time. Congratulations to Evan for being named Freshman Of The Year at Alpharetta High School.
