What can I expect in my first nutrition session?
During your first session, we’ll go over where you’re starting from: your goals, eating habits, supplements and medications, lifestyle, obstacles to success, and any health issues you may be experiencing. If appropriate, I’ll calculate your macronutrient recommendations and create a portion guide to get you started. If we decide tracking macros isn’t the best option for you, we’ll create actionable goals to work on until our next session.
How long are the nutrition sessions?
Our first session is 30 minutes, and follow-up sessions are 15 minutes.
How often are my follow-up nutrition sessions?
Depending on the tier you sign up for, your follow-up sessions will be either weekly, twice per month, or monthly.
Do you do body composition testing?
For clients in Los Angeles and the greater Boulder area, body composition testing every six to eight weeks may be arranged and included in your membership.
What can I expect during my first Personal training session?
Before your first training session, we’ll chat about your goals, past and current injuries, mobility, training history, and likes / dislikes (your fitness should be fun AND challenging!). During our first session together, we’ll get right into a program I’ve created specifically for you. It may take the first few weeks to get to know your body and fitness level. This is a team effort!
How long are Personal Training sessions?
Training sessions are anywhere from 30 – 60 minutes in length, depending on what’s best for you.
Where are Personal Training Sessions held?
Personal training sessions are all held by Zoom unless you are in the Boulder area, or hiring me to train you while you travel.
How do we set up payments?
Credit card payments are the only form of payment accepted for all memberships. Single sessions and training may be paid for through Venmo or Zelle. I do not take insurance. All payments are due prior to the session.
What is your cancellation policy?
I have a 24-hour cancellation policy. If you fail to cancel within 24 hours, I give one complimentary reschedule, but after that, the session will be counted towards your number of sessions for the month (if you have a membership), or forfeited if it is a single session.
What is the membership policy?
Your subscription is recurring and there is a three month minimum. If you’ve signed up for a membership, you will continue to be charged monthly unless you notify me of a cancellation request.
Canceling prior to 3 months incurs a fee equivalent to 100% of your monthly rate. Cancellation requests must be made by email 3 business days before your next billing date.
How long will it take to reach my goal?
Ahh ya, this is THE question in anything in life, isn’t it?
And you know the answer. It depends on how much you put into it.
It also depends on how much you go out to eat, travel, and what birthdays/holidays/bachelor and bachelorette parties are coming up. You can do all those things and see results but sometimes they slow down the progress (sometimes not, that depends on you).
That being said, if you’re doing the work, it’s reasonable to expect a 1% change in body fat percentage per month and a 2-4% increase or decrease in weight per month (if you are trying to gain or lose).
If you are working with me in a more functional nutrition capacity for a clinical issue (gut imbalance, autoimmune condition, etc), it can take longer to see change, as we’re treating your body as a whole and identifying the root cause of your issues.
Do you do lab testing?
Yes! We can discuss what labs might be beneficial for you, your goals, and your budget. Some of the lab testing I commonly order for clients are nutrigenomic testing, stool tests to look at gut health, organic acid panels, and food allergy testing. All lab testing is an additional cost.
Personalized nutrition and fitness is the map to help you get to the life of your dreams.
