Frequently Asked Questions
We know you have a lot of questions about starting a new health & fitness program....
so we’ve answered the most frequently asked questions before you even thought of them!
Q: Will I be the oldest one there?
A: Probably not! We have multiple clients who are well into their 70's. Our workouts are designed in such a way that they are very scalable and adjustable for all ages, sizes and experience levels.
Q: What if I can’t keep up?
A: There’s no such thing as “keeping up” at ITS. Everyone works at their own pace and you'll never be pressured to do more that you are capable of. All workouts are based on total time, so nobody will be waiting on you to finish and vice versa.
Q: Will everyone be watching me?
A: Nope! While you're working, everyone else will be working as well. The only people who will be watching you is our coaches!
Q: What to I need to bring?
A: Just you and a bottle of water! We have everything else that you'll need here at the gym.
Q: I’ve been to gyms before and always felt awkward. What if I don’t fit in?
A: Every single one of our clients were once in your shoes. Our experienced clients love taking new clients under their wings and helping them get into the swing of things. And our coaches take the time to make sure new clients are ramping up slowly and performing the appropriate modification of all the exercises … so they quickly gain confidence and a sense of accomplishment that helps them feel at home.
Q: Am I going to die?
A: Many people ask this question, tongue in cheek of course. No. You will not die. The workouts are VERY scalable. And to be completely honest, I don't want your first couple of workouts to be that difficult. Once you're comfortable here and you/we know what your capable of, then and only then, should you/we adjust the workouts to be more difficult for you and your fitness level.
Q: What if I’m not strong enough?
A: The only way you could possibly be 'not strong enough' is if you can't get off of the floor. We do several exercises that require you to get down on the floor and get back up (which is directly correlated to longevity, by the way). So if you can get back up once you're down on the floor, you're plenty strong enough to workout at ITS!
Q: Is this 1 on 1 training or group training?
A: We do group training sessions designed to help you lose weight, improve joint health, get stronger, move better and feel better! We do offer a very limited schedule of 1 on 1 training as well.
Q: I have a really busy and unpredictable schedule. What if I don’t have time to work out six days a week?
A: We got you! At ITS, the vast majority of clients train 2-4 times per week. If they’re following our simple nutritional guidelines and doing some non-exercise activity (we recommend walking) on the days when they don’t train in-person with us, they’re doing everything they need to get great results. Six days per week is not necessary to get great results!
Q: I’ve tried group fitness programs before and gotten injured. Is that going to happen to me again?
A: We can never say never, but the chances of you getting injured are VERY low. This is due, in part, to the scalability of each workout and each exercise. We won't ask you to do anything that you aren't capable of and are not comfortable with. It's also due, in part, to intelligent, low impact programming. We've been doing this for a long time (over 12 years at this point), so we've become very good at programming exercises that are safe and have multiple levels of intensity.
