Regardless of where you prefer to train, at home or at your local gym, I offer you the most advanced, effective, and completely customized workouts to help you reach your goals.

Tired of going to the gym and not seeing the results you desire? It’s time to stop following ineffective fitness fads or generic gym workouts, and to focus on solutions specifically designed to work for you.

Program Objectives:

• Design 100% customized workouts to match your age, level and abilities.
• Empower you with the knowledge and tools necessary for achieving long-term results.
• Allow you to reach your goals from the comfort of wherever you prefer to train- be it your home, office, or local gym.
• Offer you continual daily support to ensure your success.

You will learn how to...

• Build muscle and strengthen your bones.
• Improve balance, posture and movement mechanics.
• Maintain your strength and full functionality regardless of age.
• Increase energy levels.
• Improve athletic ability.
• Eliminate lower back and other chronic pain.
• Decrease body fat and maintain your ideal body weight.

Here is how it works in 3 easy steps:

Step 1: Complete your comprehensive fitness, nutrition and lifestyle questionnaire. This is a very detailed form. I take everything into consideration when designing your workout because the more I know about you the better I can help you accomplish your goals.

Step 2: I design a customized program for you and provide you with videos as well as exercise handouts. You will have access to your exercise videos online on a private page which you will be able to access anywhere using any computer or mobile device. Why are photos not enough? Because proper form matters, and I want to be as technical as possible to show you exactly how to perform each exercise with a  video demonstration, as well as verbal coaching when possible. I don’t want you to miss out on any of the coaching that clients who train at my studio receive. Details are important, especially when it comes to proper form and execution. Please note that you will be asked to record and send a few videos of yourself performing some of the exercises I prescribe. This allows me to evaluate your form and provide specific instructions.

Step 3: After you complete your workout a few times on your own I still need to hear from you so that I can continue to adjust your exercises and make changes to your program when necessary. I will continue to communicate online via your own private page, and you will receive my continued support including monthly one-hour telephone consultations (depending on membership). Every question you have will be answered and, when I don’t hear from you for a while, expect me to check in to make sure you are moving in the right direction. You are encouraged to ask questions and to provide as much feedback as possible.

Repeat: Every month I will create a new customized program along with exercise videos for you. My focus is to do everything it takes to help you reach your goals, and this requires continuing to adapt your exercise program to make sure you are getting the best results for your time and commitment.

Q&A with Marc

Q: Why were you initially opposed to online personal training, and what finally made you start offering it?

"I was, and still am, against the idea of trainers taking on hundreds of clients by utilizing online personal training software. Within seconds and with a few clicks they put together programs for people they haven't met or properly evaluated. I stay away from that because I don't find it very beneficial for the client. Why pay for a series of random exercises that you could get for free?

Finally, after several requests from people around the world who had watched some of my videos online, I decided to offer something unique that would benefit them. Today I do offer online personal training and support to clients who accept to do the following: first, they have to complete very detailed forms so that I can learn as much as possible about their health history, lifestyle and the goals they would like to achieve. Second, when asked, they have to be able and willing to record and send me a few short videos of themselves performing exercises so that I may evaluate their form. Third, they have to be willing to communicate often with me and to provide updates about how they are progressing. Many exercises that I prescribe, when done correctly, serve as a bridge to the next level of fitness. I have to see the client performing them properly at least once, and the lines of communication have to be open so that I can help each person fine tune their program. It's not the most convenient way to do online personal training for the trainer, but it's the right way for the client to ensure safety as well as proper progression and results. I set aside time in my schedule each week to help train my online clients, same as I would with clients who train at my studio face to face.” Marc Jaoude.
