We have a handful of spots left in our personal training program for the month of May.
If you are:
– Just getting started, and want / need more individualized attention – Want specific guidance on something – extra core workouts, learning / refining the basics of kettlebells, perhaps dailing in your nutrition – Simply prefer to work with a trainer one-on-one vs in a group setting
This could be the perfect for you.

In today’s video, I talk about things you should consider when hiring a trainer.
In my experience – working with thousands of clients personally over the last 12 years, as well as directly hiring and managing dozens and dozens of personal trainers in that time – the three most important things are:
1 – A warm and friendly demeanor 2 – Clear instruction 3 – Knowledge in helping you reach your specific fitness goals
I go into each of these points in more detail in the video.
Check it out!

This is a question that I know crosses a LOT of people’s minds when they are looking to start a new fitness program.
In my own biased opinion 🙂 … I think 99% of the time, the answer is, you should hire a trainer.
And here is why:
The #1 challenge for the majority of people is just sticking to an exercise program for an extended period of time.
When you have a trainer(and you need to make sure you choose the RIGHT trainer – a topic I plan to cover in a future article!), it adds in a HUGE factor in keeping you on track.
Because they hold you accountable to showing up.
When you have someone expecting you to be at a session two or three or four times per week, you’re on the hook for getting it done!
This is why people who hire a trainer, on the average, have a MUCH higher success rate than those who just join a gym. (Another topic for a future post!)
Now let’s say you are in the minority, and you already stay consistent with your workout program. You could certainly join a gym and just show up and exercise and do fine.
But I would argue that if you pick the RIGHT trainer, they are going to help you really get a lot better results.
Because they can help you train for a specific goal, and design a program for you that’s going to work you towards that goal in the fastest way possible.
They can also help you with your exercise form and make sure you’re doing the movements properly and getting the most out of them and not getting injured.
The only person who doesn’t need a trainer is the unicorn who never misses workouts, has mastered safe and effective form in their discipline of choice, and are just incredibly dialed in. (I have yet to meet this person by the way so far in life – though they may be out there!)
In conclusion, in my humble opinion, I think EVERYONE who is looking to start, OR take their fitness program to the next level, could benefit from hiring a trainer.
Let us know if we can help 🙂
And here’s to your success! –

We are running a “Foundations” / Beginner Boot Camp program this month at FVT, and it has been a great success!
About 10 women and men have gone through the program so far, and we are getting great feedback.
But, registration is closing for the program in a few days. If you are interested in signing up, we need to get your application, connect to make sure it’s a good fit, and get you officially registered April 30th – which is just a few days away.
NOTE – if you are signing up FOR a friend / family member / co-worker / etc, please make sure that you put THEIR correct info (name, email, phone) in the sign up box. Thx!
This is a charity effort for the SPCA. FVT will be donating $10 to the cause for every person who comes out. You are not required to contribute to attend.
It’s a great opportunity to come out and experience one of our boot camp workouts first-hand!
Hey I know we are heading into the Holiday weekend here, and you might be taking off work a little early etc … so wanted to quickly remind you about the “10-4” – 28 day fat loss Challenge sign up we have been talking about:
The grocery store tour we have planned for this is next weekend (Sunday April 27th), and so if you want to do the program and get the most out of it, getting signed up and getting your one on one meal planning session booked and completed before that is going to be most beneficial.
Which means we need to get you signed up asap if you want to participate, so that we can get that on the schedule for some time next week 🙂
Our Charity Boot Camp for the Sacramento SPCA is coming right up! – Weds, April 24th, 6pm @ FVT Boot Camp and Personal Training – 1530 X Street.
Team FVT will be participating in the 26th Annual Doggy Dash on April 27th in William Land Park – (you are invited to come out in support to this as well!) to support the Sacramento SPCA.
So we are going to do a special Charity Boot Camp event on Wednesday, April 24th!
And we’re going to do it a little differently than we ever have before.
For every person that comes out and participates in the workout, FVT will donate $10 to the cause.
This will be on top of any amount that participants (optionally) contribute.
It’s a fun way to come out and check out a boot camp at FVT, and support a great cause at the same time.
It seems to be the latest big trend in the weight loss world.
And I am having a turkey sandwich and an apple for lunch after I write this, so I thought it would be perfect timing 🙂
So let’s start with explaining exactly what the “keto” diet actually is.
The popular low-carb diets (such as Atkins or Paleo) are somewhat similar, but they modify a true keto diet.
A true keto plan centers on fat, which supplies as much as 90% of daily calories.
Instead of relying on sugar (glucose) that comes from carbohydrates (such as grains, legumes, vegetables, and fruits), the keto diet relies on ketone bodies, a type of fuel that the liver produces from stored fat.
So the idea is that your body burns fat for fuel, and you lose weight!
So does it work?
For a lot of people, in the short-term, yes.
I’m sure you’ve heard from a friend or family member or co-worker who tried the approach, and it’s been great for them.
But here’s my thing.
For 99%+ of people, this approach is not sustainable.
I just don’t think the vast majority of people doing this are still going to be at it five, ten, fifteen years from now.
And quite honestly – if you’re not planning on making it a life change, why bother?
WHO CARES if I can get you to lose 10 or 20 or 30 or more pounds … but then you can’t keep following the plan for longer than a couple / few months … and you end up this time next year at the exact same place you are now?
Our solution at FVT is teaching you how to do this the RIGHT way. So that you can finally develop a healthy relationship with food. And so that you can still eat all the foods you enjoy, but get to the healthy weight you want to be at, and stay there.

We’ll get back to you ASAP and guide you to the program option that is the best fit 🙂
