FAQs

Fill out the interest form and tell Nathan a bit about yourself: your goals, schedule, and any injuries or health history worth knowing. If it looks like a good fit, he'll reach out to discuss next steps and send an invoice. Your spot on the schedule isn't confirmed until payment is received.

   First session scheduledYou come in, do the intake, and get started.

We spend time talking through your lifting background (if any) and any medical issues we'll be working around. A short nutrition conversation follows. Then we move into an exercise screening to check your current mobility and strength levels. That data lets Nathan build a program fully tailored to your exact needs. The session wraps up with an overview of where the program is headed and scheduling future sessions.

Payment is required before your first session. Nathan sends an invoice once you've agreed to move forward. Your spot on the schedule is not confirmed until it's paid. Members pay monthly at a discounted rate (10% off for pre-paying). Additional sessions in a given month are charged at the start of the next billing cycle.

After Nathan sends an invoice, you can pay via Stripe through a bank account. He also accepts Venmo, Zelle, PayPal, and personal checks.

Bring your signed waiver (required before any workout), a water bottle, and a towel if you'd like. Wear athletic clothing with no metal except zipper pulls. Rings must be removed before lifting. This is a serious safety requirement.

Non-members: 16 hours' notice required before your session start time, or you'll be charged in full.

Members: Monthly membership includes a set number of short-notice cancellations that can be made up within 14 days (the makeup day must exceed your membership frequency by one day).

Included short-notice cancellations:

• 1 session/month for 1–2x/week packages
• 2 sessions/month for 3–4x/week packages

Beyond that limit, missed sessions without 16 hours' notice are forfeited with no refund. You are responsible for contacting Nathan to cancel.

Life happens. When a genuine emergency occurs, contact Nathan and he'll work something out.

No-call no-showing tells Nathan you're not serious about training together. He doesn't continue working with clients who go that route.

He strives for perfection, but it has happened. Whether you're a member or not, you'll receive a free makeup session that you can use at your convenience.

For insurance purposes Nathan works exclusively with clients 18 and older.

If you've used all your sessions before month end, additional sessions are charged at the start of your next subscription cycle at the same per-session rate as your current membership.

Cronometer is a calorie and activity tracker Nathan uses with all clients. The learning curve is small, the goal-setting options are solid, and its minimal design keeps it from being annoying to use daily. Included with every membership.

It depends on how committed you are. Nathan is a personal trainer, not with you 24/7. If you can make some diet adjustments, success is very likely. But hitting your calorie and cardio goals outside the gym is your responsibility.
