Personal Trainers in Lake Forest and Mettawa

Streets in Lake Forest follow the ravines and lake bluffs, and most homes are detached houses, with townhomes and larger condo buildings in the mix. In a house, a spare room, lower level or garage gives you space to grow into heavier work over time. In a townhome, a cleared living room handles a full session. If your condo building has a fitness center, your trainer can meet you there where guests are allowed, or train with you in your unit using the gear they bring.

Outdoor sessions can follow those same ravines. Fort Sheridan Forest Preserve has trails through ravine country and a sandy shoreline, good terrain for hill repeats and sand work. Middlefork Savanna's gravel trails and boardwalks cross open tallgrass savanna, a fine setting for longer walks and steady runs. In Mettawa, Captain Daniel Wright Woods has a loop trail that joins the Des Plaines River Trail when you want more distance. Sessions move back inside when the weather turns.

Long trail sessions and heavier lifting both ask a lot of your body, and recovery belongs in the plan. Our in-home massage therapy is done by licensed therapists who come to your home, so you recover in the same place you train. You can book massage on its own or alongside your sessions, and your trainer can work foam rolling and mobility into the days in between. Mention it on your consultation call so it fits around your training schedule.
