It’s also great for you fitness buffs to see where all that hard work has gotten you. A certified Personal Trainer will begin your assessment by checking your heart rate, blood pressure, and body composition. The trainer will continue with a 3-minute cardiorespiratory test, a sit and reach flexibility test, and strength and endurance assessments for your abdominals and upper body. Once you have completed the evaluation, the Personal Trainer will review your results with you.
