PERSONAL TRAINING DIRECTOR
Kat Painter earned her degree from UAH with a Bachelor's degree in marketing management. She is certified with the National Academy of Sports Medicine(NASM) specializing in various types of training from core stabilization, strength, sport-specific, functional, interval/circuit training, and flexibility training. Kat has 9 years of professional experience in the fitness industry teaching group fitness classes and training clients of all ages and backgrounds in Orange County, California and here in Huntsville, Alabama. Aside form being an avid health and fitness enthusiast, she is currently a national-level fitness and figure competitor, as well as fitness model.
Kat takes all training clients' exercise programs seriously, always striving to improve their overall appearance, increase their energy levels, maximize their results, and enhance their overall sense of well-being. Kat states, "First and foremost, it's all about YOU!" What is your lifestyle? What are your interests? These days, we tend to focus on everyone/everything else except ourselves, making it difficult to find time and energy to dedicate to fitness. I want to work with you to find a program that not only helps you achieve your fitness goals, but also fits into your lifestyle. Second, set specific, achievable goals for yourself. It is much easier to face a challenge when you are working toward an end goal. Our trainers will tailor a program for you that is challenging, yet safe, incorporating resistance, flexibility, cardio, as well as other modes of training. We want to empower all our clients with the knowledge of training safely, yet effectively, by teaching them how to push themselves while maintaining proper body alignment and technique as they work to achieve their specific goals. Starting (and continuing) a fitness program means not only challenging yourself physically, but also mentally. There are many factors that can make it difficult to keep up the momentum; We strive to keep our exercise programs fun, fresh, and full of variety so that our clients stay motivated, and continue to look forward to their next session! Together we can make your goals happen! Your health is important to us! Contact me for your complimentary fitness evaluation or with any questions about exercise. I'm looking forward to meeting you.
