what to expect from Fitness eval

You won’t look like an imbecile.   The eval is actually pretty easy.  The trainer will do things like body fat estimates heart rates both resting and after some form of very simple exercise like stepping up on to a step and back down for a few minutes.  He will check your flexibility and estimate your level of strength. Don’t forget, this person is a professional. He/she won’t even be thinking about what you look like while doing the eval other then to see what needs work.

The eval is an awesome tool.  It’s the picture of you before you start.  This way you can have something to gauge your progress on, and it gives the trainer an idea of where to start.

Don’t be nervous; go there with the mindset that this is going to be fun, because exercise is fun, if you make it fun.  I wish I could work with a personal trainer

T The fact they are giving you a fitness eval before starting a program shows me they probably know what they are doing.  It's one of the reasons I don't like to give out programs online. There is no way I can know what your fitness level is over an email or phone.  So I don't think it's possible to construct an appropriate workout program for someone else online. It's not a test you can fail. It's just a gauge to see where you are so they can construct a good program that fits your needs and not some one size fits all cookie cutter routine they pulled out of Muscle and Fitness  magazine. Good luck Earl
