Edward Newman Crossfit Trainer
My definition of training is: “making your MIND comfortable with the fact that your BODY is going to be a little uncomfortable”. People who don’t like to exercise usually just don’t like to be uncomfortable, but getting out of our comfort zones – mentally or physically – is where positive change happens. Nobody improves while sitting under a warm fuzzy blanket. My specialty is helping people to get out of their comfort zones whether it’s for a minute or an hour. I can’t make someone want to get stronger, leaner or fitter, but if they want to do it, I’m with them all the way!
If I can get this fit, so can most anyone. If you look at me and think I’ve never struggled with my weight or that I’ve been fit and athletic my whole life, you’d be completely wrong! From 16 – 22, when I should’ve been in the best shape of my life, I was 20 to 25 lbs. heavier than I am now.
I do not consider myself genetically blessed. I don’t have the perfect set of genes. What I do have is a lot of stubbornness and a little OCD. According to all my doctors, I should not be able to do what I do. I should not be able to perform at the level I do and I should be in chronic pain.
Define your goal: Fat loss, muscle gain, strength, or a mix. Make it specific: “Lose 10 kg in 3 months” or “Gain 5 kg of muscle.”
Strength Training (3–5x/week): Focus on compound lifts (squats, deadlifts, presses, rows).
Calculate your calories based on your goal (deficit for fat loss, surplus for muscle gain).
I was nervous about joining a gym, but this center made me feel welcome from day one. The personal trainers are fantastic, offering great advice and customized workout plans. The variety of equipment and classes keeps things exciting, and the community here is so supportive. I’ve never felt stronger or healthier!
I’ve tried many gyms before, but nothing compares to this center. The facilities are always clean, the classes are amazing, and the staff is super friendly. Whether you’re a beginner or a fitness enthusiast, there’s something for everyone. I especially love the group workouts—they keep me motivated and make working out fun! Highly recommend!
I’ve been a member of this center for over a year now, and it’s been a life-changing experience! The trainers are knowledgeable and supportive, always pushing me to reach my fitness goals. The equipment is top-notch, and the atmosphere is incredibly motivating. I’ve lost 20 pounds and gained so much strength and confidence.
Depending on your health and fitness goals, you’ll need to commit to a minimum of 3 days of exercise each week to see results. Any fewer than that and each workout will feel like you’re starting all over again each and every time.
Make sure you wear comfortable clothes and correct footwear.
Definitely, personal training caters for all fitness levels. Combining personal training sessions with your fitness routine is a great way to blast through barriers and achieve your fitness goals faster.
You’d think that as your body becomes stronger and more familiar with the exercises your workouts would start to feel easier. Indeed, many people who ‘go it alone’ in the gym report exactly this. When exercises are progressed frequently and consistently, the body never truly adapts to the workout, making each feel just as challenging as the one before.
