The Power of 1:1 Training at Some Dudes Army: A Personalized Approach to Health and Fitness

At SDA, we believe that fitness is not one-size-fits-all. Every individual has a unique story—different health histories, movement limitations, and specific goals that require a tailored approach. That’s why our 1:1 training is designed to meet you where you are, providing a personalized and holistic plan to help you reach your full potential no matter your age or circumstances. We’re humans first. Business second.

Our approach is more than just workouts; it’s about bridging the gap between the healthcare industry and the fitness world. We aim to help our clients replace pain meds with movement and improve their lives by becoming stronger, more mobile, and pain-free. Here’s how we do it:

Our FREE 3-Step Intro Process:

Step 1: The Consultation The foundation of our 1:1 training starts with understanding you. During our consultation, we take a deep dive into your health history, past injuries, limitations, and your daily lifestyle. This is where we gather critical information that allows us to create a program that works for your body, not against it. We look at everything, from previous injuries to how much time you spend sitting at a desk, how much sleep you get, and more so we can craft a plan that suits your needs specifically.

Step 2: The Movement Screen Once we know your story, we move into a movement screen. This step is all about measuring your range of motion in key positions like the squat, deadlift, and overhead movements. It’s not just about seeing what you can do, but about finding any limitations you may not even be aware of. These assessments allow us to develop those positions you need to work on, keeping you safe and effective in the gym. The goal is always to improve your movement patterns, whether by developing the mobility you currently lack or strengthening the range of motion you already have.

Step 3: Strength Balance Assessment Our final step in the process is the strength balance assessment. This is where we test for strength imbalances, from left to right and top to bottom. We look at things like: Can your left arm press as much as your right? Is one leg doing more work than the other during squats? These imbalances, if left unchecked, can lead to injury. By identifying and addressing these issues early, we help you prevent future problems while optimizing your overall strength and performance.

Why 1:1 Training?

Our 1:1 training is different because it’s designed to be all-encompassing and holistic. We don’t just throw you into workouts—we take the time to understand your body, your movement, and your goals. This tailored approach means that every session you have with us is purposeful, safe, and effective. We work with amputees, elderly trying to stay active, powerhouse athletes trying to compete and more!

The Bigger Picture: Replacing Pain with Movement

Our mission at SDA goes beyond just getting you fit. We aim to replace pain meds and prescriptions with movement and healthy foods. Many people live with chronic pain and turn to medication as a quick fix. But what if the answer lies in better movement? We strive to help our clients become more mobile, stronger, and more aware of their bodies, reducing their need for medication while improving their overall quality of life.
