The HEIBERTFIT Mission
My mission as a trainer/corrective exercise specialist is to help individuals learn about their own body mechanics, capabilities, their likes & dislikes, how to avoid, as well as work through certain current/past injuries and enjoy the process.
In this day and age, it is common knowledge that daily exercise and good nutrition play a major role in how one’s life progresses. Most people, however, continue to find themselves in a state of ‘will do’ rather than ‘doing’. There are many reasons for this. Although exercise is becoming more and more mainstream, as well as readily available through one’s handheld device, television, internet, etc, most exercise apps or routines found on the internet lack a very important feature… customization. Even so, customizing a workout based on one’s goals isn’t as beneficial as customizing to the person’s specific body type and history of movement.
Every single person has a unique body type, history of illness/injury, what they’re motivated by, as well as style of exercise they prefer. These are some of the reasons that John and Jane Doe, regardless of how similar their goals, cannot possibly be given the same exercise routine on any given day. My mission as a trainer/corrective exercise specialist is to help individuals learn about their own body mechanics, capabilities, their likes & dislikes, how to avoid, as well as work through certain current/past injuries and enjoy the process. The goal here is to train each individual to their own potential, leaving them with the knowledge of what is best for them, so that they may advance using their powers to a more healthy and active lifestyle.
About HB
Born in a generation that played outside, I have been active since birth. I realized early on that health and fitness is where I felt most comfortable and began my journey as a trainer at the age of 17. I enrolled in Kinesiology courses in school and began learning everything I possibly could about the human body, including the psychology of human movement…
While receiving my bachelor’s degree in kinesiology, I began working in physical therapy centers that offered aid positions. Before completing my degree, I worked and volunteered in several different areas of exercise and fitness such as equestrian therapy with autistic populations, aquatic exercise with people with TBI (brain injury), autism, quadriplegic, and paraplegic individuals. At one of the most distinguished physical therapy centers in California, The Glendale Adventist Therapy and Wellness Center, I was under the wing of therapists who specialized in corrective exercise, sports rehab, and spinal cord injuries. My dream of following in their footsteps to continue my education in physical therapy was cut short when I was in a motorcycle accident at the age of 25, an accident that left me with a shattered arm requiring countless surgeries and over 3 years of physical therapy. I then decided to pursue a master’s degree in kinesiology (corrective exercise). This decision brought me closer to my patients/clients by understanding their process and pain. Moreover, I learned from a research perspective how human psychology plays a role in exercise and wellness.
Since completing my master’s degree, I am happy to say that I have opened my own private center where I train clients in all areas of fitness. Most people start with the hopes of reaching a certain goal; our clients stay because they actualize those goals and realize that their potential is limitless.
