” Losing 60 pounds and finishing my first half marathon well is enough for me to have confidence in my coaches and my fitness playground – Innovative Results.”

August 6, 2016 by IR Staff 2 Comments

When I first met, Anshika, she came off as smart, focused, and didn’t want to waste her time and money on a fitness trainer and fitness training program that didn’t work.

She has since proven how effective a solid fitness trainer, nutrition coach, and fitness training program can be with a smart and focused client.

Check out Anshika Rakesh’s story below:

When did you start training at Innovative Results?

I joined Innovative results around 2006 or 2007.

It’s so long that I don’t even remember…ha ha ha!

Irvine fitness training, Irvine Personal Training, Irvine Gym, Innovative Results, Orange County Fitness PlaygroundWhy did you start training with Innovative Results?

I had my first baby in 2005.

I had gained 70 pounds.

I did come back to my original weight which is 105 pounds, but was left with loads of loose skin and felt horrible.

My confidence had gone, and my stamina left with my confidence.

The regular gym was boring, and I didn’t have time to run everyday.

Innovative Results was a god send, and fell in love with their style right away.

Around that time Innovative results was a pioneer in its style.

All the crossfits and bootcamps that you see now, started much later.

What have you improved since you started training with Innovative Results?

I have had 2 pregnancies with Innovative Results.

I have not only come back to my original weight, but got back my muscle and body toned within no time.

My metabolism, sleep pattern, stamina has improved tremendously.

Losing 60 pounds and finishing my first half marathon in 2 hrs 20 mins is enough for me to have confidence in my coaches and my playground Innovative Results.

What keeps you coming back to Innovative Results?

The workouts at Innovative results are never boring.

I have never felt that I am doing the same exercise every time.

Everyday exercise regime concentrates on a different body parts like upper body, legs and of course bootcamp and crossfit style training is never forgotten.

How has Innovative Results improved the other areas of your life (i.e. work, relationships, finances, education)?

I have high tolerance to pain, have much more stamina, can be on foot all day, and am able to enjoy outdoor activities like hiking and biking for longer hours.

What advice do you have for someone who is just getting started with Innovative Results?

Weight loss, lean body mass are goals that can be accomplished if you are persistent and consistent with your exercise regime and good diet.

June 21, 2016 by IR Staff 1 Comment

I met Rakesh through his wife Anshika.

He was interested in the Innovative Results fitness training program.

His wife Anshika was a part of the fitness training program at Innovative Results, and Rakesh was interested in reaching a few fitness goals himself.

Both Anshika and Rakesh, continue to amaze me with their commitment, focused intensity, hard work, and patient endurance.

Through his amazing work ethic and consistency, Rakesh is still getting stronger, losing body fat, gaining muscle, improving his performance, and increasing his endurance at Innovative Results–The Orange County Fitness Playground.Orange County personal trainers at Innovative Results, The Orange County Fitness Playground

3. What kept you coming back to Innovative Results?

Innovative Results Fitness Program at The Orange County Fitness Playground, TestimonialsWithin a year of joining Innovative Results, my cholesterol levels were back to normal range.

Those statistics were good enough to convince me that this body needs exercise, as much as it needs food every day.

Every time I couldn’t get out of bed to go to Innovative Results, I would remind myself that exercise is a meal for body.

After a point, my body got addicted & it would remind me if I missed a meal for too long.

The most important reasons that kept me coming back were Aaron & Corey.

These 2 guys are best in the industry.

Their core belief in making a positive influence on community or someone’s life helps them go beyond just trainers and make them stand out in the pack of fitness coaches, personal trainers, and fitness gyms.

Other reasons include – Friendly staff at Innovative Results, “Surprise Variety” factor in workout routines, and realizing results as promised with strength and stamina.

a. Improved determination – that kept me going for last 9 years

b. Defy aging: I believe that my photographs today look about the same as I was 9 years ago but feel more toned and have improved strength and endurance.

c. Balanced mind: Work out at IR is also a stress buster for me. It helps break the continuity of thoughts with professional and personal life matters and allow you to be you for an hour.

d. Ability to say “Yes” to outdoor events – Hiking, Skiing, Running, Jogging and more – I enjoy these activities more because I feel that I have stamina to go long.

 

5. How has Innovative Results improved the other areas of your life (i.e. work, relationships, finances, education)?

Innovative Results, Innovative Results Gym, Innovative Results Family, Family workout, workout with family, group workoutsI have made great friends at Innovative Results.

It’s a great place for networking as you meet people from different walks of life.

I have a great respect for Aaron’s Marine Corps service background, and have embraced importance of discipline, good eating habits, importance of why we do what we do in my professional and personal life.

6. What advice do you have for someone who is just getting started with Innovative Results?

I would tell newbies that this place delivers long term results and will give you value for your money.

You will never get bored working out here.

If you give your best shot when you are at IR, you will be surprised to see how fast your physical limits overcome mental limits.

7. How has your life changed since you started training at Innovative Results?

IR has become necessary partner in life.

8. Who would you want to experience what you get to experience at Innovative Results?

There are few of my friends.

I will get them to try a free trial.

Orange County Fitness Gym, Improved quality of life9. Why do you stay committed to your improvement in and out of the gym?

Because I believe that we all are God blessed to have a wonderful life with beautiful kids & partner.

We get to invest in wellbeing, so that we can be around to nurture and protect these wonders for as long as we live, and let not aging become deterrent or create limitations.

The Busy Working Mom Workout and How Rebecca Toned Up

May 26, 2016 by IR Staff Leave a Comment

Orange County gym that helps people get results Rebecca had just given birth to her 3rd child and had 48 pounds to lose.

She was working full time, and involved in three community organizations.

Needless to say, she was a busy working mom.

She dropped about 32 pounds by diet adjustments and running alone.

She had done this before just after her first pregnancy – dropping 70 pounds!

But this time, Rebecca was having a hard time dropping the last 13-15 pounds.

She was a little older, and her time was more cramped.

She now was a working mother with one set of 4 year old twins and a newborn baby boy.

She also knew starting a fitness training program was going to take commitment and dedication – and that it wasn’t going to be easy.

To drop the weight and get toned Rebecca knew that a fitness training program would be difficult but worth it.

Check out Innovative Results, Rebecca’s busy working mom workout solution… 

She wasn’t looking for a quick fix – she was looking for a solution to tighten her body and lose the weight.

Rebecca chose Innovative Results as her busy working mom workout, and hasn’t looked back since.

before after collageSince working with Rebecca she has lost 15 pounds, and she fits back into your ‘skinny jeans’.

Rebecca mentioned that she fits into the clothes she wore when she lost the weight of her first pregnancy – but now she weights 4 pounds heavier?!

“It’s not all about the number on the scale…I fit into my jeans that I wore when I weighed 114 – I weight 118 now – but I’m not ‘skinny fat’, I’ve developed tone. People get too freaked out about the scale… it’s all about the measurements,” states Rebecca.

Rebecca, like countless others that have come to Innovative Results, experiences the value of our training program with the way she looks, feels, and performs.

She loves being able to show up to her fitness training program, and have intelligent and caring fitness trainers build a program that delivers results every time.

She hates being in the limelight, and I wish I could show you pictures of her transformation.

However, we respect our client’s wishes at Innovative Results, so we can only tell you about her amazing success with us, showing you pictures of many of our other fitness clients’ before and after transformations.

Needless to say, you will be in great hands when you start training at The Orange County Fitness Playground.

VersaClimber Benefits for Your Fitness Training Program

May 6, 2016 by IR Staff 1 Comment

By Mark Elmasry

Mark and his sidekick, Mugsy
Mark and his sidekick, Mugsy

The VersaClimber is a great tool to use in a plethora of exercise programs, and there are many VersaClimber Benefits.

Most high level athletic training facilities are equipped with them, Innovative Results fitness gym has it for all of their athletes.

All fitness gyms and athlete training facilities should incorporate them in their training programs.

We incorporate it into our training program at Innovative Results fitness gym because it is a safe regression for any hard impact movements, it is an excellent strength building tool, it is an awesome recovery tool, and it can be used to train all three energy systems.

The first of the VersaClimber Benefits and the reason it is an excellent implement to your fitness training program because it is a safe warm up tool that will always be time efficient and effective.

Alli VersaClimberThe basic movement of the Versaclimber is a very natural contra-lateral pattern (an elaborate way of saying the opposing limbs–Right arm with left leg, and left arm with right leg–move together, like when walking, running, or swimming).

It requires a complex pattern of coordinated movements that we all practice as babies by simply crawling.

When you master that at a young age, we are never too old to keep practicing that rudimentary movement.

Moving opposing limbs like that is so beneficial for your nervous system.

This teaches both sides of your brain spatial awareness and basic neuromuscular grooving.

When you move repetitively like this in a low impact environment, quick or slow, you are training your lower body to keep up with your upper body and vice versa.

It becomes a pattern that you subconsciously remember; your “muscle memory” takes over, and is an athletic drill that can benefit every sport and activity.

Training with the Versa Climber has a variety of uses, specifically focusing on any of the three energy systems.

The Versaclimber can hit all three energy systems.versaclimber trip

It can be used in short, explosive bursts to deplete the phosphor-creatine system; which maxes out at about 8-12 seconds depending on the muscle fiber make-up and the level of conditioning of the subject.

The next energy system is the fast glycolysis system, or the lactic threshold.

Versa climber sprints from 15 seconds to up to 1:45 sec or 2 minutes are going to push the lactic capacity of your muscles ability to do work with making lactic acid as a byproduct.

Energy Systems The more you train that energy system the more potential your muscles have to do work without making acid as a byproduct.

You can train your lactic (fast glycolysis) system to be very efficient and keep your muscles working for a good amount of time as well as recharge for more work within a brief recovery period as well.

Last of the energy systems is our oxidative energy system which has an infinite amount of energy because it is the process of our lungs oxygenating our blood.

That process only stops when we stop breathing and our heart stops beating.

However, we can always train this energy system to be more efficient and the versaclimber is an awesome way to do so while cruising at a submaximal heart rate with very low impact force on our joints.

In summary, the Versaclimber is a great way to train both hemispheres of our brain coordinating this simple elementary pattern.

It is also one of the best ways to train our creatine energy system, our lactic energy system, and our oxidative energy system.

VersaClimber 3This is a must have for your fitness training gym, athletic training facility, and personal training program.

Check them out at http://versaclimber.com/ or come by Innovative Results–The Orange County Fitness Playground and use our three VersaClimbers and our two VersaPulleys.

The Story of That Last Little Bit of Fat – Losing the Last Ten Pounds

February 23, 2016 by IR Staff 1 Comment

StressAaaarrgh!!

Why can’t the mirror just make it disappear?

And while I am talking about it, my pants would feel better without it, and don’t even get me started on how my shirts and blouses would fit without it.

When I step on the scale, it is still sitting there, reminding me of everything I don’t want to hear, see, or feel…

I have ten pounds of unwanted, undesirable, and un-removable body fat…I feel like I have tried everything, and it is still there, taunting me with its jiggly, bloated, bulging presence.

love handleHow do I lose the last little bit of fat?

This story has been told by all of us, and even though it feels like the last ten is stuck there forever, this does not have to be the story.

First, let me premise this story with the understanding that there is a necessary and healthy need for body fat, and it helps the male and female body look attractive. I am not here to help the person who is looking to starve and over-train every ounce of fat from their body.

I am here to help the person that truly has ten pounds (or more) of unnecessary body fat, which is doing more harm than good.

I am talking about the knee-pain-inducing, high-blood-pressure-raising,  heart-disease-increasing, depression-promoting, back-breaking ten or more pound of body fat.


We all see the shining light at the end of the tunnel. The shining light is where we have lost the ten pound baggage that has been weighing us down for too long, and now we are free to move, feel, and look amazing!

Fitness boot camp helps people get active

We know it is not going to be easy, and yet for some reason we want to hear someone tell us, “all you have to do, is keep doing what you have been doing, and it will gone.” or “Just do this one exercise for five minutes a day, and that little bit of fat will disappear before your eyes.”

Unfortunately, we all know this is not true, because we have been doing the same thing for (insert insanely long period of time here), and nothing has changed.

We also know that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing, and expecting a different results, yet it is so easy to keep doing our routine. Is that because we are creatures of habit? Yes.

What if we could make a slight change to our habits, and see a HUGE result?

enhanced-buzz-8548-1367336827-9Insert good news emoticon here, because we can!

Time after time at Innovative Results and throughout my time as a fitness trainer and fitness coach, I have seen the longest lasting, biggest transformations–especially with the “last ten pound club”–from those that stay dedicated to making small habit changes for good.

The three simple steps to lose the last ten pounds are record your nutrition intake (to include hydration), twenty minutes of relaxed, focused breathing, and show up consistently to an intelligent fitness training program.

Step 1 – Record Your Nutrition Intake, Which Includes Hydration

ir_3_nutrition_prepThis daily habit change, does not mean you have to go on a crazy diet, or fast with lemon-juice and ginger for forty days, or throw away everything in your kitchen, replacing it with fresh-picked hipster organic farm goodness.

Recording your nutrition is a way for you to teach yourself what you are eating.

Sounds dumb, but it is effective, which also means it is not dumb.

You would be surprised to hear that every single person I have asked to track their nutrition, has told me some rendition of, “Wow! I did not realize this juice had so much sugar in it.” or “Wow! A half a cup of rice seems so small on my plate.”

We live in America where convenience, incredible marketing, and big/more/bigger is the way of life, especially with food.

You can imagine how much help it is to add daily nutrition tracking of your food intake.

This small habit will completely change your life, and it is so easy to implement with smart phones and apps there is no excuse but to implement it today.

We recommend myfitnesspal, because it is simple, easy-to-use, and it is FREE! (we make zero money off of the promotion of this app and website)

Step 2 – Twenty Minutes of Relaxed, Focused Breathing

breathing techniquesThere are too many studies that recount the goodness and improvement that come from focused breathing, daily relaxation, prayer, and meditation, but I want to look at this time from a different perspective.

Think about this time as a reset button.

When your day is starting to choke you out, or last night’s lack of sleep refuses to be conquered by coffee, take twenty minutes to improve your mood, relax, de-stress, unwind, and focus on one thing, your breath, instead of the million things on your list.

If this turns into a twenty minute nap, than we know you probably needed more sleep anyway, which helps our metabolic and hormonal function.

If you keep thinking about all the things you need to do or want to do, bring a pad of paper, write it down and take care of it after your breathing time, and then refocus back on your breath.

This reset is crucial for your mindset during this time of change and renewed habits.

Every time you take twenty minutes to reset yourself mentally, you are also resetting yourself physically. Whatever mistakes you made or problems you had are now gone and in the past.

You are no longer weighed down by shame, guilt, or past habits.

Today is the first day of the rest of your life, and you have the opportunity to make a new you with a new day.

Step 3 – Show Up Consistently To an Intelligent Fitness Training Program

2016-01-12 10.11.51Showing up is the hardest part, especially if you have a million things on your list, or you don’t feel perfect, or you are feeling the darkness of the tunnel, not the shinyness of the light at the end of the tunnel.

Once you show up, all you have to do is join in the calculated exercise program, and you always feel better.

If the program is a smash-fest or it is variable and inconsistent, you probably won’t feel better, so don’t get sucked into these dark holes.

Seek out good coaching, encouraging environments, and tried and true methods for your exercise program and fitness training.

Whether it is one-on-one, group training, classes, or do-it-yourself exercise programs, make sure it is progressive, enjoyable, and helpful.

Progressive workouts build on themselves, instead of randomly putting together a bunch of exercises, and saying, “do it more and do it harder and do it more harder with intensity”…sounds weird, but because of our culture this is one of the biggest mistakes when trying to lose the last ten, because the stress of these workouts add to the stress of your day, and set your hormones up for fat-retaining failure.

Enjoyable workouts are going to be a personal choice, because where I see sweaty, disheveled mats with twisted figures hiding pain, many of you see a relieving, reviving, toxin-expelling, breath of fresh mobility, called hot-yoga.

Find something you enjoy, and stick to it long enough to build a deeper than paper relationship with the instructors and coaches that can only help you if they see you more than once or twice per month.

If we focus on these three areas as new, small habit adjustments, we will begin to see where our body and mind is most healthy in terms of body fat and lean body mass.

You will see that the ten pounds have melted away, and you have new lines, curves, jeans, shirts, and relationships that you never would have thought possible.

Your relationship with the mirror, scale, closet, pictures, and people have improved, along with your quality of life.

How to Keep Your Resolutions and Fitness Goals – Four Simple Tips To Stay With Your Fitness Training Program

February 10, 2016 by IR Staff 2 Comments

summer-beach-fun-wallpaperI see it happen every year, and so do you.

So many people get fired up and start their goals to conquer the World with their resolutions and fitness goals.

A lot of those fired up people have fallen off, and by the middle of February, every gym is back to normal, until many of those people realize they have to wear a swimsuit on their tropical vacation this summer (and by that time it is usually too late).

Anthony MansfieldIs it that each person that quits doesn’t lose 43 pounds in two weeks, so they decide it isn’t worth the time, money, nutrition tracking and fitness training anymore?

Is it that they started so intensely that they felt like they were wearing a body cast of lactic acid and soreness, and thought, “well that is horrible…this fitness training thing is not for me?”

Maybe it is that they were overwhelmed with their trainer’s broccoli, chicken, and cardio diet, followed by a lemon, ginger, asparagus, honey, and oatmeal enema, and then, here, take these 400 supplements…oh, and we haven’t even got into your power lifting program…

Whatever it is that coerced or is deceiving you or your friends into quitting, there is an easier way to keep your resolutions and fitness goals.

Feeling better, looking better, and moving better doesn’t have to destroy you, nor does it have to be complicated, nor does it have to cost you an arm and a leg.

Here is a simple four item list that you will be able to keep…for the rest of your life:

  1. Less is More
  2. Build Habits
  3. Restarting is Okay
  4. Do something, even if it is little, and do it now!

shutterstock_1341411291 – Less is More

It isn’t sexy, and it seems counter-intuitive, until you have talked to my longest-attending clients with the most significant fitness, body, and mind transformations.

Start with a daily walk for 5 or 10 minutes, and think about how you can fit this small time and effort pleasantry into your life for the next week.

As the weeks progress, so can you.

If you slowly added 30 minutes of daily walking the results for your fitness goals, improved health and improved mental-wellness are tremendous.

The same goes for nutrition.

Imagine replacing one unhealthy food item with an healthy food item, and you knew you could enjoy this change for the rest of your life.

Now, perform that once per month, for the next year, and you have totally changed the way you eat in two years, and the best part, is that you will be able to sustain this for the rest of your life…no more yo-yo dieting.

MLK_Jeff Climb2 – Build Habits

So much of the success that I see, is because the person built the habit of just showing up to Innovative Results fitness gym every day…no matter what.

At first, habit building is slightly challenging, but no where near as challenging as the person trying to lose 43 pounds in two months, while trying to finish a marathon before they turn 40, which is happening in three weeks…

The habit-builder sees tremendous change, not because they have a better fitness goal, or more motivation, or more energy.

It is because they are more consistent.

Habits are how we live our daily lives, whereas goals that are large, are seen as an end to something in our life.

Often goals are not achieved, or if someone achieves the goal, they stop doing the thing they need for their improved health, improved fitness, and improved mental-wellness.

You can tell me what happens next, after they stop…Back to the old way of living, that made them choose the fitness goal in the first place.

Anaheim Personal Trainers3 – Restarting is Okay

If you are feeling rotten about quitting or giving up, you don’t have to…it sounds too simple and too easy, but just start again.

If you exercise and improve your nutrition for a month, and then fall-off, and then start a month later, and then do it again, and again, and again…you have exercised 5 months more per year than the person that quit after the first month, and never started again.

If it sounds too simple and too easy, it is because it IS too simple and too easy.

Start again.

Today is the beginning of the rest of your life, and what happened yesterday does not have to define you today.

SteveStary44 – Do something, even if it is little, and do it now!

Seriously, motion creates emotion, and if you don’t believe me, you haven’t stood up, moved around, smiled, and laughed yet.

Try it with me.

Stand up.

March in place.

Slap your right hand on your left thigh, and your left hand on your right thigh, while you march.

Smile as big as you can, and laugh out loud.

Even if you are interrupting the corporate meeting that you are supposed to be paying attention to right now.

Do it now, and let this tiny bit of effort show you the great rewards that come from a changed life.

Looking to keep your resolution and achieving you fitness goals for Improved Quality of Life, look no further than the four simple and easy to apply action items here:

  1. 2014-11-18 20.06.49Less is More
  2. Build Habits
  3. Restarting is Okay
  4. Do something, even if it is little, and do it now!

The holidays are here, and with it comes distractions to your fitness program.holiday-weight-gain-front

While you’re trying to lose weight or get in better shape, the holidays can be hard on you.

Parties, dinners, shopping, wrapping, traveling, etc….

It can throw you off your fitness training program very quickly, unless you are ready for it.

Over the past few months, we’ve prepared a few different resources for you to use while traveling, dining out or when youre attending parties.

For most people, all you need to do is be conscious of your habits (eating, exercise, etc)…

The majority of people walk through their day, and are not conscious of their eating, drinking, and lack of activity.

Take some time and review these resources….it could be the difference between gaining 10 lbs and feeling great by the New Year!

5 Holiday Fitness Tips to Avoid The Holiday Weight Gain

  • Nutrition Journal – While this doesn’t sound fun, after two weeks it will be easy, and nothing works better to keep you looking and feeling great, according to the research and studies done on improving how we look and feel. We recommend My Fitness Pal, because it is simple, easy-to-use, an app, a website, and FREE.
  • Simple Daily Activity or Daily Exercise – It doesn’t have to be complicated or complex. Make daily movement a habit, and watch the holidays treat you better this year.
  • Plan to Win – When you fail to plan, you plan to fail. Use this to help you plan to win this holiday season.
  • Recruit Your Family and Friends to Support you – You might not seem like the hero at first, but once you are all feeling better, performing better, and looking better during a time when most people are getting sick, performing poorly, and looking beat-up, you will be the hero this holiday season.
  • Get a Fitness Coach or Personal Trainer – If you were going to do it yourself, it would be done already. Sometimes a coach or trainer is exactly the right push at exactly the right time.

People Are Always Asking…What is the Fitness Training Program Like at Innovative Results – The Orange County Fitness Playground?

October 9, 2014 by ptpt 3 Comments

Fitness gym in Orange CountyI am getting stronger and leaner, but what are we doing today? And why is it working?

How do I tell my friends what Innovative Results is like?

I tried to explain Innovative Results to my friends, but I wasn’t sure how to describe what we do?

These are common questions from our amazing Innovative Results Family, so we decided to write out a thorough explanation of Innovative Results – The Orange County Fitness Playground.

At Innovative Results, we work hard to develop workouts (fitness training program) that appeal to a wide variety of people, challenge each person and help them reach their goals.

Some days may be upper body strength, lower body strength,  conditioning, recovery, performance, power, and others simply to help us feel good.

Innovative Results workouts (known as fitness training program) are constantly improving, developing, and getting better for the most important person in our fitness playground–YOU.

Innovative Results training program rotate weekly and the entire training cycle (progression) changes every three weeks.

This allows us time to teach proper movement patterns for power, strength, endurance, and looks. This way we can actually see improvement in each area before moving to the next training cycle (progression).

This might sound a bit complex, but don’t worry, we’ve got you covered!

Typically, this is how one of our Fitness Training Program Sessions work…

roll your arches

1 – A Check-in

2 – A Huge Smile

3 – Followed By Several High-Fives, Hugs, and/or Hand Shakes

4 – A Coach Will Do a Quick Nutrition Journal Check-up, Adding Some Guidance if Needed.

(If You Show Up Early, You Get the Productive and Feel Good Techniques of Self-Myofascial Release, Foam Rolling, Trigger Point the Tight Spots)

We all have overactive, tight muscles that can affect how we move or feel.

Commonly, tight calves, Thighs, Hip-flexors, Upper Back, and Chest can wreak havoc on our posture and ability to move efficiently.

Addressing these areas before the workout can help alleviate common aches and pains, and increase our ability to move during the session.

AM Pushup Line5 – Warming Up the Engine

A good, dynamic warm up helps prevent injury.

We typically take about 10 minutes to do a variety of mobility drills, activation drills, crawling and locomotion to prepare our bodies for the workout.

This loosens up tight areas, activates the right muscles, raises our core temperature, teaches basic movement patterns and gets us primed to workout!

10456204_10152166202247045_2642158022243137564_n6 – Speed, Agility, Quickness and Testing Isn’t Just for Athletes

Moving quickly, reacting to outside stimuli, skipping, jumping, and sprinting are incredibly important for safe, healthy, and good human movement.

We use a variety of ladder drills, cone drills, hurdles and other games to get people moving quickly.

It might be a powerful triple jump for one person and a simple squat variation for another, but we help everyone work hard for their ability level.

We also ensure we are testing every session to make sure every person is improving in all the areas of fitness that they are trying to create (i.e. power, strength, endurance, weight, technique)

racked carry7 – Time to Get Strong

This piece of our training session builds muscle, helping us get stronger, build lean body mass, and improve our metabolic engines.

We squat, lunge, hinge, push, pull, climb, crawl, carry, and drag.

The human body is designed to move in a LOT of different ways, so our training sessions involve much more than bench press and curls.

We use barbells, kettlebells, sandbags, bodyweight, heavy barrels, chains, steel maces, steel clubs and many other tools to challenge our members.

Exercises, body position, rep ranges, time under tension, load positioning, tempo and many other factors help us change things up and keep our bodies guessing.

810 sidewinder8 – Breath Heavy, Increase Your Heart Rate, and Sweat a Bit

Conditioning, circuits, High Intensity Interval Training, and similar workouts have become very popular these days.

While they can be beneficial, if used correctly, we tend to keep most of the conditioning work at the end of each workout.

Our conditioning pieces can be short and explosive; longer and less intense; or somewhere in the middle.

This variety help train all three of our basic energy systems, while helping our nervous, cardiovascular, muscular, and metabolic systems to run more efficiently.

CB mobility9 – Stretch, Roll and Recover…aaaah

Static stretching at the end of our workout helps shut the muscles down and start the recovery process.

We’ve just stimulated the body and stretching helps us stay loose, helps us cool down and starts the recovery process.

We also use trigger point techniques and deep breathing to assist in this recovery process.

Here is a quick list of what we do at Innovative Results for our Fitness Training Programs:

1 – Check-In.

2 – HUGE Smiles!

3 – High Fives, Hand shakes, and Hugs!

4 – Quick Nutrition Journal Check.

5 – Warm-up!

6 – SAQ, Activation, and Testing.

7 – Get Strong, Build Lean Muscle, and Build our Metabolic Engine!

8 – Conditioning for those Endorphins!

9 – Foam Roller, Stretch, and SMR.

The workouts here are not only challenging but functional and fun! The very reason I stopped working out in a regular gym was because I was tired of lifting weights and doing cardio and many of my other friends trained me in the same fashion. They became monotonous and boring and I rarely looked forward to them. At IR, the workouts are creative and no two are ever the same. It doesn’t feel like working out even though you are definitely working up a sweat! I am NOT a morning workout person, yet I wake up excited to get to my 6am workout. Always recharged, energized and refreshed after my workouts… – Christina

The workouts are fun, functional, tailored to your physical abilities and are held almost every hour of the day, necessary for me since my work hours can fluctuate. Inside of two weeks, I saw results that in my physique that I hadn’t seen in years. Just try it…you’ll never look back. – Sharif
