Facility Design and Implementation : Pro-Active Fitness can provide advice on mapping out the facility such that the equipment will maximize both conservation of space and improved traffic flow within the center. Assistance on purchasing the equipment at significantly reduced rates along with our expertise on determining which pieces of equipment your employees would most desire are two more reasons we believe we can make your facility an enjoyable and cost effective environment for your employees.
Fitness Orientation & Evaluation: A major objective of our staff is ensuring safe and effective exercise programs for your employees. To accomplish this, each employee that utilizes the facility will complete a health history questionnaire, perform a fitness test, establish goals for their fitness program and have an orientation meeting to familiarize them with the equipment in the center. The value of this service is inherent in the individual attention your employees will receive from the Pro-Active Fitness staff ( PAF staff). Each of your employees have different needs and beliefs about exercise. The PAF staff would like to establish a user friendly environment to the fitness center, address their needs, and make exercise a non-intimidating, invigorating part of their day.
Sports Specific Training: For employees that have sports specific goals the PAF staff will design a sports specific training program that will enhance their performance whether it is on the links or the foot hills of Mount Washington. Our staff has a vast amount of experience in performance enhancement training that will assist your employees in meeting the sports related competitive goals that they have outside of the office.
Biomechanical Assessment: This is a great service that gives participants the tools needed to start exercising with a plan in place that addresses there weaknesses and potential injuries. The biomechanical assessment will insure that there goals can be achieved in a safe and injury free manor.
Fitness Testing: The fitness test is an essential part of the exercise program. Initially we will establish a fitness baseline through measurement of the employees'' resting heart rate, blood pressure, body composition, circumference measurements, aerobic endurance, muscular strength and flexibility. The aerobic endurance and muscular strength portions of the analysis will be specific to the employee. For example the employee who runs often would benefit from a treadmill test while the golf or general fitness enthusiast would benefit from a sub-maximal bike test.
After performing their respective exercise routines for a period of 2-3 months the PAF staff will be available to perform a reassessment. This will give your employees objective feedback on their fitness program and help them establish new goals or recommit themselves to achieving their prior goals.
Orientation and Monitoring: The PAF staff will be available to your employees for three individual or buddy consultation sessions to acclimate them to the fitness equipment and help them understand what exercise should feel like .A PAF staff member will be available on an informal basis to answer questions, assist in performing an exercise and offer advice on techniques for specific exercises.
Personal Training: For those employees that desire to have ongoing individual or buddy training sessions with a PAF staff member. The motivation and optimal exercise programming offered by our staff can further enhance the employees ability to achieve their goals. This service is an added cost that is paid directly by the employee or with a company subsidy.
Aerobics Programming: When the aerobics room is completed we will provide a dynamic group of classes and instructors to challenge your employees. Examples of the types of classes that could be offered would be Zumba, Aerobic Kick Boxing Classes, Step Classes, Muscle Conditioning, Spinning, Hi-Lo and The Sports Challenge. Classes will be taught to accommodate all levels of participants.
Post Rehabilitation Training: The PAF staff will design fitness programs that will facilitate a safe return to exercise after an injury or rehabilitation program. The unique ability of our staff to handle injuries that occur to the weekend warrior, everyday or novice exerciser and the competitive athlete is developed on a regular basis through a consistent continuing education program. PAF takes great pride in its ability to develop programs that will help your employees return from injury to work and recreation quicker.
