Phrog™ Fitness Paradigm
The Phrog Philosophy
The Phrog Personal Training Studio is the creation of Thomas Yannitte, fitness trainer, published author, exercise design engineer, and wellness coach.
Phrog departs from fad diet and exercise wisdom not only in its’ holistic approach to fitness, but also in Phrogs moderate, long-term philosophy of healthy living and what Yannitte calls “Reality Training”, or training for individual real world life styles. His program presents a more realistic approach to fitness: safe gradual weight loss, improved health and wellness, and greater knowledge of nutritional and exercise needs. Yannitte gives clients the tools to make better lifestyle choices - not for two weeks, a month, or a year, but for the rest of their lives. He contends that his program yields dramatic results: more energy, greater happiness, and an increased sense of control over personal wellness. These results are both reward and incentive - clients feel better, look better, and stick with the program.
At its’ core, “Reality Fitness” builds upon the concept of multi-plane motion patterns, which improve strength, flexibility, balance and core conditioning. This type of fully immersed interval training reestablishes the correct balance between mind and body through multi plane movements. Phrog Personal Training, also recruits more muscle groups than traditional body-building based strength training, results in a much higher caloric expenditure. “Phrog Reality Training” also helps restore balance with movements that simulate an individual clients everyday activities, making it a useful tool for rehab patients, active aging members, reconditioned users, and “anyone” looking to strengthen the total body and core.
