Personal Fitness Program
The Ott Family YMCA Personal Fitness team offers guidance, motivation, and structure to help you begin and continue with a fitness routine leading to a more physically active lifestyle. When you join, we offer a FREE orientation to assess your fitness needs and goals, and get you on a program that will be structured specifically for you. Throughout the progression of your routine, we will update your personalized program in order to help you meet all of your fitness goals and see the results you desire. Your orientation can include Fitlinxx, a program that will guide you through each exercise, record your workout, and help you monitor your progress. To make an appointment with a fitness trainer or to learn more about the Fitlinxx program, stop by the Courtesy Counter or ask to speak to a trainer.
Fitlinxx
Fitlinxx is a computerized system that attaches directly to existing fitness equipment, adding an extraordinary "intelligence" dimension to the workout experience for the first time. Fitlinxx "learns" users' programs, "coaches" them individually through their workout for better form, safety and confidence during every exercise, and "tracks" their progress over time. On strength equipment, Fitlinxx appears as an easy-to-read touch-screen display that is attached to the machine. For cardiovascular equipment, each machine's existing console is simply networked to Fitlinxx. Users simply tap their PIN to display their targets. Fitlinxx then coaches them on speed form, heart rate, etc., and tracks the workout session - every rep, set and step.
Personal Training
A personal trainer provides motivation, variety, safety, efficiency, and expertise to your workout routine. The Ott Family YMCA employs certified personal trainers from National Associations. Our experienced team of trainers will work with you one-on-one to help you get the most out of your personalized workout!
