The Importance of a Well-Designed Fitness Program

My name is Gregg Hake and I am President of the Spa on Green Street and the Body Sanctuary, Inc. in Gainesville, GA. Our Fitness Director and Pilates Instructor, Barb Miller, returned from the 20th Annual Atlanta MANIA fitness show held recently with a renewed spark in her eye and an contagious skip in her step. Barb attended a number of advanced training sessions on cutting edge fitness techniques, but one that stood out to her was Chuck Wolf’s “Flexibility Highways in Motion.”

“Strength,” “flexibility” and “cardio” have long been buzzwords in the fitness industry and many of the training modalities emphasize one or the other in varying degrees. Some, such as yoga or pilates, consist of a healthy blend of strength and flexibility, while others, such as weight training, tend to emphasize strength and cardio fitness.

Mr. Wolf makes the interesting point that the fitness industry tends to focus on increasing strength, flexibility and cardio capacity but tends to overlook the controls that must be put into place to make such increases safe and manageable. Assist a client with stretching and various exercises, for instance, and you may increase his flexibility, but if you do not provide a corresponding exercise to augment his eccentric control to stop the flexion at the new limit and return back form that point, you risk creating an imbalance that can lead to injury.

A well-designed fitness program should match every increase in capability with a corresponding increase in control. We recognize at the Spa on Green Street and the Body Sanctuary, Inc. that wellbeing comes naturally when strength, flexibility and cardio fitness are in balance, but most importantly, when capability and control are well-matched.

Stop by the Spa on Green Street today for your complimentary fitness consultation where we match your fitness goals with a practical, doable program that balances capability with control. We have no membership charges, no contracts and we tailor every fitness program to your personal functional needs. All of that in an elegant, stately setting on historic Green Street!
