Philosophy
I think the biggest gift we have is our health. Today more then ever before we have so many responsibilities and we forget to make time to take care of ourselves. We can make time for health and fitness. The truth is, if we don't make time now, we may find ourselves suffering from a health concern, not having much time for anything and wishing we would have spent the few hours a week exercising. Our ability to contribute and perform in our lives and realize our dreams is directly affected by our fitness level and our willingness to take action. Be a doer. If you are ready to make a change, want to do it in the most effective way possible, and desire lasting results, join the Play More Fitness family. You will gain more time than you spend.

What to Expect.
Trial Class - We encourage all first time clients to take a free trial class to make sure the Play More Fitness bootcamp is a good fit for them. Raitis will be available to personally answer any questions you may have. Should you choose to become a client, at this time you will receive your Play More Fitness guide to success.
Goal Orientation - At this time we will administer a brief but thorough fitness test. This is necessary because your test results will provide us with a base from which we will establish realistic weight loss and/ or fitness goals. Although measurements aren't required, we highly recommend them at the beginning and end of every 4 week session.
Instruction - This is your four-week Boot Camp. One hour a day, three to five days a week, for four fun-filled weeks.
Graduation - Congratulations! You and your group have made it through your four week Play More Fitness session. You will receive your complimentary Play More T-shirt (available in small, medium or large, first-time clients only) at your end-of-session consultation. At your consultation we will assess your end-of-session fitness level and goals achieved. Should you choose to continue with Play More Fitness, we will take measurements and set fitness goals for your upcoming session. Upon completion of your first four-week session, participants are expected to have lost between three and fifteen pounds. Subsequent sessions typically return a smaller weight loss but have a much higher lean muscle gain as your body continues to stabilize on your personal program. For this reason, we recommend at least four continuous four-week sessions (sixteen weeks total) to give your body uninterrupted training and cement the changes that you will begin to see in your first session.
