Introducing Lori

Lori Sadewater MS, CPT
PERSONAL TRAINER

PHILOSOPHY: Challenge yourself every single day.

As you go through the grind of every day life, challenge yourself. The challenge can be as simple as "I will not eat that last cookie" to “I am going to work out for 1 hour today.” Every second of every day we face numerous choices. Simply choosing to walk instead of take the elevator or doing an extra push-up or drinking a glass of water leads to a little healthy progress on the pathway to healthy living.

In my past life, I was a collegiate athletic coach and educator. I worked with student athletes to improve their personal fitness and skills so that we could be a stronger team. I will carry that dedication and effort over to my personal training clients. My goal as a personal trainer is to help you achieve your goals. My aim is to get to know my clients on a personal level so that I can better understand your motivation and can effectively aid in your progress.
I want to talk to you, listen to you and laugh with you every single workout all while challenging you to push yourself...

Something New

Here are some new ideas:

• new activity


• new workout clothes


• new workout shoes


• new music


• new exercise DVD

A small monetary investment may be all you need to get yourself moving again. Wouldn’t you feel guilty if you let those new shoes just sit there collecting dust?

Workout with a friend

Wager a friendly bet:
Anytime you or your friend skips a planned workout the one who cancels has to put $5 into the jar. At the end of the month the person with the best track record gets all the money in the jar!

Schedule 4 workouts

Scheduling four may seem like a lot, but consider the fact that “something will come up” on one of those days and you will have to cancel. In that case, at least you will get three workouts in. Consider that fourth workout as a “bonus” workout. If you complete it, reward yourself!

Keep Track on a Chart

Try this at home:

Place a calendar dedicated to keeping track of your workouts in a prominent location such as your refrigerator.

• Each day you workout draw a smiley face (or give yourself a sticker) on the calendar.


• Each day you do not workout draw a big red “X” on the day.

If you see XXX you better get a move on!



Any week you have more smiley faces than X’s reward yourself!
