Yes, my rates reflect the specialized value, expertise, and convenience of a service that goes far beyond the standard personal training gym experience.
I have carefully selected my rates based on a variety of factors. Monitoring the market closely within San Jose, boutique luxury gym facilities charge upwards of $120-$150 per personal training session, while a standard ‘big box’ gym will range lower around $80-$100. These sessions are performed by a personal trainer (CPT) in a open environment with other guests of the facility and the client must commute to the facility themselves.
As a mobile service, my rates take into account the convenience of in-home training, no commute time, business expenses and equpiment costs which are not incurred by employed trainers at a commercial gym.
My rates furthermore reflect my unique dual expertise as a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) and a Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT). A CSCS title is rarely held by CPTs employed at a gym. It is exceptionally rare to also find an actively licensed non-restricted DPT work as a personal trainer. This is all to say - you will likely never find a CPT at a big box or boutique gym holding CSCS and DPT titles. The rates further take into account my earnings potential as a home health physical therapist. I must reasonably match this income for this business to be financially practical to perform.
Given the aformentioned reasons above, I believe my rates to be competitive based on what I have to offer.

With adherance to basic dietary controls, weight loss should be achievable. While I can provide general nutritional guidelines, I am not a registered dietician or certified nutritionist. I do not provide professional or personalized meal plans for liability reasons. I would recommend to consult a registered dietician if this is what you are seeking.
