About Bravo Fitness

Bravo Fitness in Shoreview specializes in personalized fitness training and weight loss programs designed to help you achieve lasting results. Our certified personal trainers work closely with each client to develop customized workout plans that match your fitness level, schedule, and specific weight loss goals.

We pride ourselves on creating a supportive, non-intimidating environment where people of all fitness levels feel comfortable working toward their health goals. Our approach focuses on building sustainable exercise habits and lifestyle changes rather than promoting extreme measures that are difficult to maintain long-term.

Services Offered

Our comprehensive weight loss services center around personalized training programs that combine strength training, cardiovascular exercise, and functional movement patterns. Each client receives a thorough fitness assessment including body composition analysis, movement screening, and goal-setting consultation. We offer both one-on-one personal training sessions and small group training options for those who prefer working out with friends or want a more cost-effective approach. Our trainers specialize in creating progressive workout plans that evolve as your fitness improves, preventing plateaus and maintaining motivation. We provide nutrition guidance and meal planning assistance, though we partner with registered dietitians for more complex nutritional needs. Additional services include accountability coaching, progress tracking through our mobile app, and lifestyle modification support. We also offer specialized programs for seniors, post-injury rehabilitation support, and sports-specific training for athletes looking to optimize performance while managing weight.

What to Expect

Your fitness journey begins with a comprehensive consultation where we discuss your health history, previous exercise experience, and specific weight loss goals. We'll conduct basic fitness assessments including body composition, flexibility, and strength measurements to establish your baseline. Based on this information, we design a personalized workout program that challenges you appropriately while remaining achievable.

Ongoing training sessions are scheduled based on your availability and goals, typically ranging from 2-4 times per week. We track your progress through regular assessments and adjust your program as you get stronger and fitter. Our trainers provide constant motivation and form correction to ensure you're exercising safely and effectively.

Every workout is designed specifically for you, with modifications made based on your progress, energy level, and any physical limitations you might have. Our trainers maintain ongoing education in the latest exercise science and weight loss strategies.

Clients appreciate our flexible scheduling, reasonable rates, and genuine commitment to their success. We build relationships with our clients that extend beyond just workout sessions - we become your accountability partners and biggest supporters. Our small studio environment eliminates the intimidation factor that many people experience at large fitness facilities, allowing you to focus entirely on your goals without distractions or judgment.

Insurance & Pricing

Personal training services are generally not covered by insurance, though some flexible spending accounts may reimburse sessions prescribed for medical reasons. We accept HSA and FSA payments when applicable. Individual training sessions range from $75-120 depending on session length and package size. Small group training (2-4 people) costs $35-50 per person per session. We offer discounted rates for package purchases and long-term commitments. New client specials and referral discounts are regularly available to make our services more accessible.

First-Time Patient Tips

Come to your first session in comfortable workout clothes and athletic shoes. Bring a water bottle and any relevant medical information, including injuries or physical limitations we should know about. If you take medications that affect heart rate or energy levels, please inform us beforehand so we can adjust your program accordingly.

Between sessions, follow the homework exercises we assign and track your activity using our recommended apps. Don't hesitate to contact us with questions about proper form or modifications for exercises you're doing on your own. Consistency is key to success, so try to maintain some level of activity even on days when you're not training with us. Sleep and stress management are crucial components of weight loss, so we'll discuss strategies for optimizing these areas as well.
