PERSONAL TRAINING

Work 1 : 1 with a JCC certified Personal Trainer to develop a program that best suits your fitness schedule (day or night) and needs. When you meet with your trainer, your health and workout history will be assessed and your goals will be discussed.

Based on those goals and your schedule, a fitness plan will be developed including cardiovascular exercise, strength training and flexibility training.

The Personal Trainers at the Worcester JCC are nationally certified professionals with extensive experience. Sessions are available in the following specialties: Strength and Fitness, Water, Pilates, Athletic Performance, Post-rehab, Balance and Mobility training. Call Elaine Drawbridge, Fitness Director, x 230 to schedule an appointment.

Stott Pilates® PT - Reformer Or Mat Ages 15+

Aqua Personal Training

“The goal of any Pilates program is to rebalance the muscles around each joint and restore the optimal level of postural stability and functional movement.” STOTT PILATES®

Why train in the water? The buoyancy of water reduces a person’s weight by about 90% decreasing stress on weight-bearing joints, bones and muscles. Hydrostatic pressure aids aching joints, making aquatic exercise beneficial to those who suffer from inflammatory disease. Contact Elaine about the J’s certified aquatic trainers through Dr. Igor Burdenko, the leading authority on Aquatic Exercise and Therapy.

STOTT PRO REFORMER - is suitable for all types of clients from athletes to rehab participants, to older adults and to regular fitness enthusiasts. Reformer work will enhance torso stability and strength, joint stability, flexibility, balance and coordination.

MAT WORK - Apply STOTT PILATES® principles of core stability, breathing and alignment to all exercises. Modifications for specific body types, postural issues and conditions. Small equipment added for variety and specific needs.

Youth Fitness: Ages 11 - 15 Jr. Fitness Center Training The JCC offers a two hour supervised program to prepare teens for proper training with specific strength conditioning and cardiovascular exercise in the Fitness Center.

To make an appointment contact Elaine Drawbridge, Fitness Director, x 230. 2/1 hour sessions...$70.

Athletic Performance Training: Grades 8 - college This program will focus on sports specific training for speed, agility, power and strength enhancement. Athletes will participate in a combination of exercises to improve athletic performance.

Youth Personal Training: Ages 11 - 17 This program is offered either 1 : 1 or 2 : 1 with a personal trainer.

The Youth Fitness-Personal Training program offers an individual fitness program for young adults (ages 11-17). The program includes strength, flexibility, cardiovascular conditioning, and injury prevention. Whether the goal is to improve overall fitness or a sports related goal, a personal training program designed under the watchful eye of a JCC trainer allows for a successful experience.

The Pink Program Several personal trainers skilled in the needs of breast cancer survivors are available. For patients, surgery can damage muscles, leading to weakness in the shoulder, changes in posture and limited range of motion. Chemo drugs can affect balance and bone density, elevating the risk of fractures. Pink Program personal training offers a way to progressively increase strength, flexibility and mobility. Survivors can experience significant decrease in pain and depression through gentle, progressive exercise.
