How do I get started?: If you're interested in learning more feel free to e-mail us or call (440) 250-9988. We typically like to have people in for a consultation that will take approximately 1 hour. We'll talk for a few minutes first - ask you to sign a standard gym waiver, review your injuries and medical history and learn about your goals. Once we have a firm understanding of where you're at and where you want to go, we will go through a sample personal training session together. This gives your trainer a chance to evaluate your current fitness level and abilities, while giving you a chance to try us out and see if you like the facility. At the end the trainer will give you some feedback regarding your current fitness level and what they think you need to do to accomplish your goals. They'll also be more than happy to review pricing and packages with you. If you want to proceed, we'll get you scheduled and signed up for a training package. At Live Fit Personal Training + Nutrition we promise never to pressure you into a sale, like many other gyms often do. We're looking to develop a partnership with you, not sell you a used car. No high-pressure sales ever.
