Training Methods We Utilize
Power UP
The Power UP Training System was founded by Greg Jasnikowski due to increased demand for a workout that would combine different types of training. No longer was one specific type of training sufficient enough to deliver the results that most of the gym members have been looking for.
Power Up brings you a mixture of exercises used in different types of training. The purpose of it is to force the body to respond to different stimuli in one condensed training session.
Greg has found that the combination of different exercises, aerobic and un-aerobic, isometric and dynamic, fast paced and slow paced, not only kept trainees interested in ever changing program but also challenged them beyond their imagination.
As a result we’ve got a very interesting routine that can be easily modified to a particular fitness level of the trainees as well as a training method that is super effective.
Power Up is pure fun. It’s easy to follow because of the simplicity of the exercises and easy to catch onto because of the number of repetitions that apply to each particular exercise.
No complicated choreography or steps that can be confusing and de-motivating.
Great music that is closely synchronized with the moves makes you push through the workout even if you are really tired.
We’ve seen people who could only last few minutes when they began Power Up Training but music pushed them through the workouts and after a few months of training they could finish the class without any problems.
What’s really gratifying is that in the meantime while having fun they were losing fat and building strong, great looking and healthy bodies.
