Dominick Viscardi, CSCS*D
Personal Trainer

I hired my first personal trainer in 1984. I continued on with various personal trainers for the next fifteen years. It was the highlight of my day to do the sessions. I had my gym bag packed and ready every day. I then decided that I wanted to be a personal trainer, and went back to school. I have never regretted my decision, and continue to learn new concepts. My view is that I am humbled by what I don't know, and I am proud of accomplishments. My mission is to never stop learning, and provide my clients with the very latest in training ideas and equipment.

Myung Neumann

Philosophy:
Your training program should imitate "real life" - so you can stick with it and see results! I don't use a cookie-cutter approach to fitness. I help design a program that works with your lifestyle to help you reach your specific goals. I've trained clients as young as 7 all the way up to 85 years old. Working together we'll come up with a plan to build lean muscle, burn fat, increase strength and endurance and stay injury free!

I'm serious about fitness - but I also want to make sure you're having fun. We're a team!

Motto:
"Eat right and move your butt!" I'm part cheerleader and drill sergeant to motivate you and hold you accountable.

Philosophy:
I enjoy motivating clients to improve their health and overall lifestyle through exercise. It is rewarding to help clients move beyond their physical limitations and overcome challenges that they never imagined possible.
Training Philosophy and Style:
Functional Training Emphasis - focus of training on functional movement patterns, exercises should train the body to perform everyday activites with greater ease and better biomechanics
Core Stability and Strength - exercises to strengthen the musculature of the abdominals, back, and hips
Balance and Flexibility - exercises to improve balance, correct posture imbalances, and relieve pain caused by inflexibility

Long term fitness strategies, coaching, and development

As a former actor and stage director my unique perspective for fitness is rooted in the necessity for the body to be able to move with ease and effortlessness. In order to be able to express oneself on stage the body has to be both strong and at ease—dynamic! I believe the same applies to everyday life. We must become dynamic with and within our own bodies to truly experience the quality of life we desire. I've been practicing Tai Chi Chuan and other movement & balance techniques for over 20 years. Having spent my entire adult life pursuing and learning about balance, movement, and strength I am uniquely qualified to help you achieve your balance, movement and strength training goals on land and in the water.

My desire for all my clients is that they will easily play with their great grandchildren and great nieces and nephews well into their 80s and 90s!

This requires balance, coordination, strength, endurance, power and agility; training the muscles and joints to respond properly to given physical demands. It requires good alignment and range of motion. It requires an ever evolving dynamic balance between engagement and relaxation. It requires starting now!

I grew up swimming and have taught many beginning students young and old alike to not only swim, but to swim well: freely and effortlessly no matter their fears or past failures.
