Make a Date with the Metabolic
Cart and Yes You Can Get Better,
Faster Workout and Diet Results
Two quick and easy tests now available at Excel
Fitness Center take the guesswork out of workout and
diet success by pinpointing your personal physiology
and fitness level and developing the optimal program
to work for you.
The tests use a computer-integrated measuring device
called the metabolic cart which was originally available
only to hospitals and universities. The cart measures
and analyzes your oxygen and carbon dioxide output to
determine:
- Your optimum heart rate training zone
- Your resting metabolic rate (RMR) or how many
calories you really burn a day
- Your optimum fuel mixture or how your body
metabolizes carbs vs. proteins vs. fats
The program at Excel Fitness Center includes:
- A VO2 (ventilation of oxygen) rate test to
determine maximal aerobic capacity and best
training zones to meet different workout goals
(endurance, fat burning, improved resting heart
rate)
- An RMR (resting metabolic rate) test to
determine how many calories ou burn a day
without special exertion (used to develop a
weight management strategy), and
- A fuel mixture report which indicates how your
body burns carbohydrates, proteins, and fats
(used to develop a weight and body mass
management strategy).

Busy people need fitness training that is tailored to fit their individual needs.
Whether you come to Excel Fitness Center for weight loss, toning, sports
conditioning, injury prevention, or post-rehabilitation service, we can design a
program for you.
Excel Fitness Center’s personal training program focuses on functional training,
a type of training that moves the body in all planes of motion and replicates real
life movement. An emphasis on core strength, balance, and stability will help
clients’ physical performance. Plyometric training, which helps increase power,
speed, and endurance, is also incorporated into each session. All of our training
sessions are one hour and are tailored to the individual client’s needs. As the
area’s only personal training facility owned and operated by a physical therapist,
Excel Fitness Center will bring your fitness training to a new level.
Sports Conditioning and Strength Training
Excel Fitness Center can help athletes increase their performance through
bodybuilding, plyometrics, stability, functional training exercises, and cardio
training. All of these different models of training are combined to help the athlete
improve his or her performance in his or her sport. The athlete’s age, experience,
and sport are used to develop a program that will increase his or her
performance both on and off the field.

Weight Loss and Toning
Excel Fitness Center’s total body workouts will keep your body burning calories
and increase your muscle tone. Our functional training is extremely efficient in
cardiovascular conditioning, dynamic stabilization, movement strength, and total
body coordination. A wide variety of body weight exercises and equipment are
used during these sessions. Let the trainers at Excel Fitness Center help you
reach your goal weight through exercise.
Injury Prevention/Post-Rehabilitation
If you have been injured and are now afraid to exercise or if you want to help
decrease your risk of injury, Excel Fitness Center can provide you with the care
that you need.
The stability programs offered at Excel Fitness Center target your body’s intrinsic
muscles. When your body’s stabilization is challenged by an injury, it must recruit
more muscles to stay balanced. Stability balls, BOSUs, disc pillows, airex mats,
foam rollers, and wobble boards are just a few pieces of equipment that are used
to help decrease your risk of injury or re-injury. By doing these exercises, you are
taking the initiative to strengthen your weak areas and significantly decrease your
risk for re-injury. You are giving yourself the essential ingredients to perform better
in everything that you do.
