so you want to quit...what are alternatives to quitting and the drawbacks?
"I need to do more cardio":
Doing only cardio might sound good, but it has some downsides. You lose muscle, prone to more injuries, and your progress might hit a wall. We had a client who had left us because she wanted to do more cardio, she joined a "cardio class based" workout that was half the price. one day the instructors had her do box jumps (a movement you would never do at AB Fitness) and she torn her knee. She ended up needing surgery and was out of commission for almost a year. She finally came back to us and the first words she said was "I should have never left, strength training got me the fittest I ever been".
"I am going to join a bootcamp class":
Group fitness sessions lacks the individual attention that AB Fitness provides. The workout style might not align with your injuries or limitations. These class base concepts put you at a HUGE risk for injury. You have 20-30 people in a room with you being lead by 1 instructor, your form is not priority. Proceed with caution.
"I am going to Try Online Workouts":
Online workouts lack form correction, which could impact your exercise effectiveness. there's a huge risk of exercising with incorrect form, potentially leading to injuries. Fitness apps do not account for individual fitness levels or specific challenges you may face. The lack of real-time feedback results in a less effective workouts.
"I am going to get some Home Gym Equipment":
Building a home gym can be costly, and without guidance, there's a risk of purchasing equipment that may not suit your individual needs. Additionally, you have no one to keep you accountable, how many times have you bought a cardio machine and it became a clothes rack!
"I am going to Hire a Different Trainer":
Switching trainers results in an adjustment period, and the new trainer may not fully understand your fitness history and goals. It takes time to build rapport and achieve the level of personalized training experienced you experienced at AB Fitness. Plus you never know what you are going to get out there. A training certificate can be completed in 1 weekend but that doesnt mean that the person is qualified to get others in shape safely.
"I am going to do Yoga or Pilates Classes":
While yoga offers benefits for flexibility and stress reduction, they lack the intensity required for strength training. Leaving AB Fitness for yoga alone could result in a potential decrease in overall strength and joint strength. Pilates focuses on core strength and flexibility, which are valuable. However, it does not provide the same level of full-body strengthening and There's a risk of neglecting certain muscle groups. leaving AB Fitness for yoga or Pilates classes may result in losing overall strength. So many clients come to us from yoga or pilates and cant preform a basic plank for no more then 30 seconds. If you are considering doing either find a way to fit them in with your training sessions
"I am going to join a Big Box Gym Membership":
This is a big list because there is a lot you need to watch out for:
Limited Personalized Guidance: Big box gyms may have numerous members, making it challenging for trainers to provide individualized attention. You might miss the personalized workout plans and form corrections that your workouts so effective.
Less Structured Workouts: Without a dedicated trainer, it's easier to fall into a routine of random workouts or missing workouts.
Intimidation Factor: Larger gyms can be intimidating. You might Feel out of place or uncomfortable which will negatively impact your motivation and consistency.
Increased Risk of Injuries: Without proper guidance, there's a higher risk of injuty using equipment incorrectly or using poor form.
Less Sense of Community: Big box gyms lack the sense of community found in AB Fitness. The camaraderie and support from people who are just like you and trainers at AB Fitness will be replaced with young kids with tripods hogging all the machines.
Overcrowding: equipment at big box gyms can be crowded, which leads to longer wait times and a less enjoyable experience. At AB Fitness you get your own space with your own equipment.
"I am going to Explore Recreational Sports (Swimming, Hiking, Pickleball)":
While recreational sports are fun, they do not provide a structured fitness routine your body needs. The risk of overdoing itand getting hurt is so high or on the flip side it may not be enough stimulus to create a change response in your body.
"I am going to Consult with a Nutritionist or a nutrition only program":
Focusing solely on nutrition without the strength training at AB Fitness is a recipe for disaster. A nutritionist may not address the exercise aspect, limiting the overall effectiveness of your fitness journey. Remember nutrition and strength training go hand in hand.
Here is the MAIN Benefits you will be missing out on:
Consistency is Key:
AT AB FITNESS we help you to remain consistent because you are paying for your session, you have a trainer counting on you being there, hence it forces you to show up. Once clients leave they almost never stay as consistent.

You will fall into the trap of "I will start again on monday". When you pay you pay attention so you will lose the consistency which will help you get healthier and stronger.
Plans Just for You:
You dont have to think when you sign up to AB fitness. you just show up and we do all the planning for you. you wake up with a stiff neck we can work around that.
