Vitality
This program's primary purpose is designed for anyone who is looking to adopt a fitness and wellness plan to live optimally for a lifetime and counteract aging. We understand that with increasing age comes many changes including natural loss of muscle mass (sarcopenia), bone density issues, loss of flexibility and muscle imbalances. If you experience any of these issues, this program is here to help you!
WHAT TO EXPECT
The Vigor Vitality program is designed to increase hormone levels naturally through weight lifting, give the exerciser a feeling of increased strength, provide more energy daily, and increase quality of life. There is an abundance of research available regarding the benefits of exercise to the aging body. We follow these guidelines to better assist you!
PROOF
"As I continue to train at Vigor, my bone density has increased, my bloodwork stats have improved and are holding, and I am in the best physical shape of my life! Thank you, Vigor Active!"
- Kathleen (56)
THE PROGRAM
The Vigor Active Movement Specialists follow science based programs published by the top accredited personal training commissions (NSCA, ACE, ACSM) for safety and effectiveness. This program will address sarcopenia, bone density, lack of cardiovascular fitness, muscle imbalance correction and flexibility issues. In order to accomplish this, we recommend muscle toning plus endurance and strength protocols, programmed cyclically. Nutritional guidelines for the aging body are very different from youth and middle ages, therefore guidance on making the necessary diet changes will be advised.
Correct
Vigor Correct is intended for those who have pain or irritation which may be caused by poor posture, muscle weakness / flexibility imbalances, or faulty biomechanics.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The Vigor Active Biomechanics Specialists will thoroughly assess the body joint-by-joint to identify your biomechanical imperfections, and will correct these issues through specialized training. The exerciser will feel less tension and greater ability to move pain free. It is recommended that the Vigor Body or Vigor Vitality program be adopted after correction as a maintenance program.
PROOF
"Living with an extremely painful post shoulder replacement, and the other arm getting close to needing a replacement, I did not know where to turn. A close friend on the Vigor Active training team suggested I engage in a program with him to correct my muscle balance and upper body posture to help the pain. I am a firm believer now a year later with no pain at all and all my strength back!! I am so thankful. Please believe me–it is possible." – Jimmy (57)
THE PROGRAM
The Vigor Active Biomechanics Specialists follow science based programs published by the top accredited personal training commissions (NSCA, ACE, ACSM, NASM) for safety and effectiveness. The program will highlight techniques to strengthen the weak musculature and stretch the tight musculature using the JANDA method. These muscle areas usually oppose one another so as one side of your joint is strengthened, the other will be stretched for optimal balance.m
Body
The target individual for Vigor Body can range from a person looking to lose large quantities of weight, or someone who wants to shed a couple extra pounds. These programs are designed for anyone with the desire to get their body moving and to begin looking and feeling their very best!
WHAT TO EXPECT
The program's specific purpose is to tone the body, while eliminating fat and creating long lean muscles. Research has proven that programs designed which lightly load the body with weights while performing higher repetitions during exercise, will lead to rapid weight loss and muscle tone.
PROOF
“During my time training at Vigor Active I lost weight but more importantly, I trimmed inches off my waistline and glutes while increasing my jacket size by a few. YOU ROCK, Vigor!” – J.T. (48)
THE PROGRAM
The Vigor Active Fitness Professionals follow science based programs published by the top accredited personal training commissions (NSCA, ACE, ACSM) for safety and effectiveness. This program will address body composition, lack of cardiovascular fitness, muscle toning and development and flexibility to create longer more visible muscles. Nutritional guidelines are essential for success in this program, therefore guidance on food science will be advised.
Strength
Vigor Strength is designed to improve the body’s ability to lift heavier objects. We feel strength training is essential for everyone, however, we also understand it may not be the goal for everyone.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Strength training is designed to maximize your nervous system activity and also increase muscular size. Research has proven that strength training can also improve bone density.
PROOF
"I have never been stronger or more confident in how I look, and I am full of energy and feel great!" – Marylin, Former Olympic Squash Athlete (61)
THE PROGRAM
The Vigor Active Movement Specialists follow science based programs published by the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) for safety and effectiveness. The exercise prescription will begin with lower loads and higher repetitions and will transition to heavier loads and fewer repetitions over time to allow for the body to properly adapt without injury. Many programs out there today cause injury because they rush the programming, ours will not!
Athlete
This program is designed for an athletic population of all ages looking to improve sports performance and stay healthy doing so. These programs can be utilized by the “weekend warrior” looking for a new style of training to challenge their body or by recreational and professional athletes.
WHAT TO EXPECT
The Vigor Athlete program aims to improve the muscular strength and power needed to perform at a higher level during competition. Heavier loads, Olympic Weight lifting techniques, speed training and plyometrics will be incorporated in these programs.
PROOF
"The Vigor Active staff is very knowledgeable in regards to what it takes to build athleticism, as they follow only science based information. I have utilized the various exercises and techniques I learned at Vigor Active in my own workouts at school, and have seen their benefits in my game." – Elliot, NCAA Division III Lacrosse (22)
THE PROGRAM
The Vigor Active Strength and Conditioning Professionals follow science based programs published by the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) for safety and effectiveness. Founder Stephen Newhart has been a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) for 10+ years and designs the Vigor Athlete programs based on this material. Periodized programs targeting muscular strength, power and speed will be utilized. Nutritional guidelines for sport performance will be recommended. We recommend that athletes utilizing this style of training should not engage year-round and should include an “Off-Season”, as recovery is necessary.
