Ask yourself:
Don’t wait until it’s too late to live life on your terms and life passes you by. Most of what we accept as ‘normal aging’ is preventable and reversible! If you’re ready to start living, we’re ready to get you back in the game!
Are you concerned about cognitive diseases like dementia and Alzheimer’s? Our personal trainers can pinpoint which areas of your brain that need a particular stimulus.
Not as stable as you’d like? Have you had a fall or near fall recently? We offer the most comprehensive balance and fall prevention tools available.
Afraid that your health and injury history won’t be understood? In our personal training careers we’ve seen just about everything you can have and know how to work around it all.
Strength declines due to aging muscle atrophy (called sarcopenia). While natural, it’s not normal. Good news! It’s preventable & reversible! Our personal training will show you how.
Movement is medicine. Often you need to loosen what’s tight, and tighten what’s loose.
Custom personal training plans combat overuse injuries in Masters athletes & older adults.
Exercise strengthens everything; your muscles, heart, lungs, and mind.
Our comprehensive balance personal training program addresses over 10 key factors that affect your balance.
Cross training is the secret of every pro’s success. Stay at the top of your game too.
Strength training fixes many ailments facing older adults, from osteoporosis to sarcopenia.
During your 15-min discovery call we’ll identify your biggest needs, concerns, goals, explain how we can help you, and schedule your longevity blueprint.
During this 90-min assessment we review your health and injury history, identify how you are doing in 7 different components making up optimal health and longevity, and create a customized exercise prescription to help you achieve your goals safely and efficiently.
You are completely unique. Your exercise prescription will be as unique as you are. As you improve and change so does your prescription.
We’ve found it helps the learning process and facilitates becoming an independent exerciser more quickly by having multiple personal trainers all collaborating on your progress and prescription. Instead of just one great coach, you get a whole team all working for you! This also creates greater scheduling flexibility to meet your needs.
For most senior fitness clients and older adults, the minimum effective dosage recommends training a minimum of twice per week. Optimum frequency is 3x/week. You can train more frequently and that will help you reach your goals faster.
Unfortunately, we don’t accept any insurance. However, with a prescription from your doctor stating your specific need for our services, our fees can be tax deductible, or you can use your flex/HSA account.
Of course prices vary, based on education, experience, value, and the market. Generally speaking if you want a highly qualified professional you will be paying anywhere from $65-150/hr in the Salt Lake valley.
A quality fitness professional/personal trainer should have some higher education in a health sciences field. They should also have a nationally accredited certification that requires continuing education each year-no weekend certifications. The personal trainer should also listen to your needs and wants and adjust the training to fit your goals-not what they like/want to do. They should have good inter-personal skills.
Remote or hybrid personal training is definitely an option. However, it isn’t for everyone. If you struggle with being consistent with your exercise, don’t know proper form, or haven’t been exercising long hybrid personal training may not be the best fit… initially.
Of course we’re biased and say ABSOLUTELY! The biggest values of hiring a professional personal trainer are:
The best answer is it depends! Everyone is different.
Will you see results? Guaranteed!
While everyone is a little different our clients usually start seeing results in 6-12 weeks. At about 6-12 months you’ll see significant improvements.

ExcellentBased on 57 reviewsNan Dalton2 June 2023I was quite out of shape when I first started 6 months ago, but now I feel myself getting stronger and have more stamina. The personal trainers are all excellent and had so much patience, especially when I didn’t feel great. It’s a fun place to go and I receive personalized training specific for my body. Coming here twice a week has been my motivation to get in shape.Mark Machlis2 June 2023Austin really knows me and my goals. We are making progress!James Kearns30 May 2023The trainers are great! The workouts are specific to your needs. My wife and I believe that they are helping us meet our goals.David Lesher17 May 2023My mom has been using LFS for more than a month. She is 83 and I am absolutely floored by her progress. She’s doing things I’ve NEVER seen her do! It’s over an hour from where we live, so after the first five visits, she is doing virtual sessions. She was hesitant at first, but she’s getting connected by herself and getting it done! She LOVES every one of the trainers. Her main motivation is to stay independent . . . It’s plain to see that her desires will continue to be fulfilled!Sean Filson10 May 2023This is an amazing concept for the Utah community.
