Y Personal Training
We’re Here to Help With a Y Personal Trainer!
Every day many people join the YMCA with a high motivation to become healthier but sometimes they need that extra nudge!
Whether it's gaining confidence, losing weight, toning up, building muscles, increasing stamina, or preparing for an event, Y Personal Training will help you reach your fitness goals through personalized training. And we'll help you learn how to stay that way for life.
Statistics have proven that working out in a group produces longer lasting results than working out on your own. Sessions are designed to give you a high calorie burning workout based on all the movements you learned in Fundamentals, Group Training or Y Weight. Experience the motivation of other people with similar goals using each other to accomplish workouts never thought possible. All PT classes are taught by a nationally certified personal trainer and are designed to get you results.
