The decision to hire a personal trainer is different for everyone but all our trainers have a common link... the commitment to improve your health! We have a variety of devoted and caring certified personal trainers who will assist you with reaching your personal fitness goals. Whether you have never tried personal training before or are looking to hire a new trainer, they have the potential to profoundly impact your life. Their commitment to you includes a personal fitness program tailored to meet your needs, active involvement in your training, and a wealth of knowledge to approach your fitness program with confidence.
How often do I meet with a Personal Trainer?
This varies based upon the individual needs of the client. Normally between 3-6 sessions are required for a program to be designed and learned. It is not uncommon for clients to make personal training sessions a part of their on-going fitness program.
What is the cost per session for Personal Training?
Cost varies, but you can expect to pay $65-$80 per hour. Small Group Training is also available for up to four people (arranged by participants) of similar abilities. Group Training can be an additional motivator, fun, and a great cost savings.
How do I find a Personal Trainer at MCC that best meets my needs?
Each trainer has a wide range of skills, knowledge and experience but some trainers focus on a specific area within the profession. Each trainers’ profile is detailed below. You may contact a trainer directly or ask our staff to connect you with a trainer for a consultation prior to making a commitment. This way you are in charge of making a match that best works for you.
