Certified Personal Trainer Betsy Brown, a native of Baltimore, will begin offering personal training at The Firm Fitness Center in June. Located at the head of Rehoboth Avenue at Route 1, The Firm and its owner Paul Timmons, NSCA-CPT, fit Brown’s definition of a gym that is “accessible to the community, offering a complete fitness facility in a very convenient location.”
Brown has been active in the fitness communities of northern New Jersey and Rehoboth Beach, where she trained clients for 5 1/2 years at another gym. Having trained a variety of clients, both men and women, ranging in age from 14 to 82 years old, she knows how to communicate effectively and define the client’s desired goals and achieve them.
She attracts clients with a broad spectrum of goals including weight loss. “Some want to build muscle; some want to ward off diseases such as osteoporosis; others want to increase their flexibility and strengthen their core. After defining a client's specific goals, I apply the principles of exercise science, human anatomy, and biomechanics to develop and implement a customized fitness program.” For her weight-loss clients, she reworks their favorite recipes, turning those dishes into more healthful choices.
Brown is also certified as a nutrition and wellness consultant by American Fitness Professionals and Associates. This certification qualifies her to provide educated guidance to persons seeking nutritional advice on weight management and enhancing health and fitness performance. “I believe that diet is equally as important as exercise in any wellness regime. I talk to my clients about how diet can help them achieve not only their fitness goals but their healthy living goals as well,” she said. Brown’s targeted weight-loss program had excellent results for one client who lost an amazing 80 pounds.
“We welcome Betsy Brown to The Firm Fitness family,” said Timmons. “She is an experienced fitness and nutrition specialist whose excellent references will enhance our facility.” During the month of June, Brown is offering a free consultation to anyone interested in improving their fitness level. Interested individuals can call her at 973-600-9510 to make an appointment or for more information, or email beachtrainer@comcast.net. Visit www.thefirmfitnesscenter.com for more information.
