COOL SPRINGS
PERSONAL TRAINING MADE FOR YOU
F
or nearly a year since its grand opening last November, Cool
Springs has been quickly growing to fill the plethora of space
that its new sports complex affords members with classes and
programming that appeals to fitness enthusiasts of all levels.
Now, the center is in the refinement stage of its growth, with areas
of personal training and group exercise classes gaining a laser-like
focus on its members. That refinement not only has singled out Cool
Springs from the competition as a place for serious personal training
and fitness, it has gained a reputation in the community as a fun and
affordable alternatives to retail gyms.
Emily Memo, Fitness Manager for Cool Springs, said that three
personal trainers are available at any given time, each with their own
areas of specialty.
Zach Petro specializes in strength training, conditioning and
performance training for student athletes. Claudia Booker specializes
in working with seniors and those recovering from surgery. Anyone
with arthritis or joint problems would also be a good fit in Claudia’s
schedule. Lastly, Cool Springs has a general population trainer who
works with students, seniors and everyone in between. Each trainer is
available for assessment and consultation so you can determine what
kind of regimen would be best for you. They analyze things like body
fat, blood pressure, waist to hip ratio and what your personal goals
are. People can then book a training package that serves their needs.
Sessions can be private, semiprivate and in groups of three to six
people. Members get a 5 percent discount on all training packages.
Included in memberships to the fitness center are access to the
brand new, state of the art exercise equipment, which includes
30 724.942.0940 TO ADVERTISE | Mt. Lebanon
Lifefitness Cardio machines, treadmills, ellipticals, stationary bikes and
stair steppers. All of the free weights and power lifting equipment
is made by Hammer Strength, a leading name in the industry. Three
month memberships are a competitive $69 a month. Twelve month
memberships are $45 a month. Day passes are also available for $15
per day. Each membership level includes free access to the facility’s
courts and fields unless they are reserved by other organizations for
play. There are price discounts available for seniors and military service
people, and the facility is currently in the process of receiving their
Silver Sneakers approval. The Sports Performance Cafe, run by Chez
Anthony, provides healthy wraps and smoothies to go for patrons to
eat healthy while on the run.
Memo said Group exercise classes include 12-15 different ongoing
programs such as basic yoga, beginners yoga, P90X, weights, core
and more, Power Hour, Express HITT and more. Classes run in
6-week sessions and most of the basic classes are included with your
membership. Starting this fall, specialized classes will be added at an
additional, nominal cost because they require certified instructors
to teach them. The center also will be adding three times more class
space to its already growing exercise area, which will increase class
sizes from five to 15 members per class.
A large gym expansion is
in the business plan for the
fall, which will give members
an additional 3,000 square
feet of space. Within this
added space will be room
for unique group exercise
classes including Spinning,
Mat Pilates, Kettlebell and
TRX. The last amenity that will be added is the child drop-off area,
which will be available to everyone who enters the building and is
a supervised play area for toddlers to 10-year-olds. The area will be
monitored by qualified childcare professionals, but is not a day-care,
and will charge a modest cost, which will be determined when it
opens this October.
