Advanced Fitness Consulting is a result driven in-home and on-site Kansas City personal training company.  We bring fitness to you, and create fun and innovative personal training environment in your home or office.  We provide you with an experienced and credentialed personal trainer.  Our trainers will serve as your accountability coach, and push you towards your most terminal goals.

The NASM and AFC Difference!

The National Academy of Sports Medicine is the premier accredited certification body for personal trainers.  Advanced Fitness Consulting has a unique relationship with NASM, and will provide you with only their trainers.  Other training companies fail because of their inability to provide a unified effort from management down to the service provider or trainer.  They simply throw a trainer at the consumer, and hope that they stick.  This ultimately leads to failure or injury for their clients.

Advanced Fitness Consulting trainers SPEAK THE SAME LANGUAGE!

From the owner to the trainer, we all use the same unique scientific and integrated training system to help you reach the fitness goals that suit your biggest needs.  Your fitness program is customized and systematic for YOU.

 What does this mean for the Advanced Fitness Consulting client?

“Trainers get certified. REAL trainers get NASM Certified.”

How Bad Do You Want It?

Training Philosophy

I believe that we all have the ability to reach our finest potential. You don't have to be an athlete to be healthy and fit. You don't need to be that competitive, but you do have to want it badly enough to do something about it. I'm here to guide when you are ready to make that jump in the right direction.  I specialize in weight management and special populations. People who are having difficulty with their weight or are trying to overcome a sedentary lifestyle or injury find me an empathetic instructor. 

Pricing and PackagesFrom online training to group exercise (BOOT CAMPS ROCK!) to one-on-one training rates will vary. Whatever your budget, I have a program for you! Just call or email and we can talk about it. 

Favorite Exercises I love leg day. It sounds strange but the intensity of the workout and the sheer volume of weight being moved really gets me.  I really love team and individual sports when they are played with a fast tempo and some intensity.  Pushing my body feels great and keeps me on my toes. 

ExperienceI am an ACE certified personal trainer, weight management consultant, group fitness instructor and the Fitness Manager for The American Stroke Foundation.  My days start and begin with challenging boot camps, so I go from adaptive exercise to hi-intensity workouts every day.   I have been loving my job, helping people transform their bodies and their lives, for eight years!

Experience/Bio We believe that Fitness is a way of life.

Living a healthy lifestyle is a lifetime commitment. Even though there may be short term goals, thinking in terms of "for life" can allow a person to make the necessary changes over time by simply making them fit into their own lifestyle. Just doing the right things most of the time on a consistent basis brings results without all the extra pressure we tend to place on ourselves.

We provide our clients with the knowledge, skills, guidance, support, motivation and educational resources that will allow them to explore their own fitness potential, as well as, enhance the quality of their lives now and ongoing. Our goal is to design workout programs that are FUN, safe, effective and efficient so that our clients stick to the program for the long haul. We design personal training programs for each individual according to their goals, needs and fitness levels. These integrated strength-training sessions are designed to train the body as a unit with all parts functionally working together (the way the body functions).

We strive to make each workout a FUN, dynamic, exercise experience that integrates functional strength training, flexibility, core stability, balance training, endurance and cardiovascular training.
