the MAN

Hello, how do you Drew?

We admit, Resonate Health & Fitness looks a heck of a lot like a decked out garage gym. Well that's because it is. And for good reason. After a few years operating a larger commercial gym facility, we got a taste of what typical gyms need to do to stay in business and knew that we could not be THAT kind of gym--pushing membership packages and products, upselling other services, cheesy marketing promos and useless giveaways. Blech.

Rather than devoting our efforts to operating a gym, we prefer to focus on the needs of the people who come to use it. So we evolved our business to make private personal training exactly what it should be. What could be more private and more personal than training in the comfort of an open garage gym, right next to nature in a peaceful neighborhood?

With rubber flooring, 6-foot wall mirrors, hanging light fixtures and cooling fans, rest assured, this is not your cousin Vinny's garage weight pit. You won't find duct taped benches, cement weights and rusty barbells. This is the real deal in a garage-like setting.

Yes, it's a garage. So yes, it lacks walls of flatscreen TVs playing '80s music videos, CNN and reruns of Charmed. It also lacks rows of high-tech treadmills and stationary bikes anchored in dried puddles of sweat. And the most blatant thing we're lacking: lots and lots of people!

Nothing spoils a workout like dawdling gym rats, chatty strangers, and glaring people watchers. Crowded gym floors and widespread machines make it impossible to perform creative routines that call for 3 or 4 exercises in row, let alone 2 or even one as you wait for someone to release custody of scarce equipment.

Now imagine having a gym all to yourself. You can do Spartan Warrior workouts with pull-ups, deadlifts, bench presses, squats and medicine ball tosses, all back-to-back. While lifting 8 lb dumbbells, you can grunt as loud as you want! Bring your own MP3 player and work out to the music of your favorite American Idol. The possibilities are endless, and at our residential gym, we offer you that exact grand opportunity to work out in a weight room dedicated to you.

As for our equipment, it's superior to your typical home gym, and better than your average chain gym. From our commercial gym experience, we've handpicked the best tools we could find to help clients reach any goal. We have the classics: dumbbells, barbells, plates, medicine balls, a squat rack and benches. We have the modern: a Nautilus cable machine, Swiss balls, kettlebells, plyometric blocks, aerobic steps, and foam rollers. And we the have the gimmicks: slide boards and sandbags. Our backyard stretch also includes a 20-yard alley of grass for side-splitting cardio exercises and hurling heavy objects.

When your workout is done, don't fret…you don't have to show up at your office or meet with your friends sporting spandex and sweat stains. Feel free to shower and change in our newly remodeled bathroom to primp for your next destination. With convenient street parking right out front, you won't have to waste a minute to get on with your day. What could make working out more easy and convenient?!
