A sports medicine trainer assesses each new member’s needs, and a custom program is designed. Jeff expained that there are five components to fitness: nutrition, cardiovascular exercise, nutritional support (vitamins, minerals, etc.), resistance training (push/pull/squat), and professional trainers.
