Pittsburgh Training

As we continue to prepare for the Great Race. I am amazed by the great places to train here in Pittsburgh. North Park, Riverview Park, and Schenley Park are all wonderful and I am sure the others are just as good. What's most exciting is the diversity in training that we are able to do right here in downtown Pittsburgh. We are able to walk right out of our office downtown and train on a variety of terrains and surfaces all within a 5 minute warm-up jog. Some of my favorites are running around PNC Park and Heinz Field, both of which are less than a 4 mile loop from the office. We also do speed work on the jail trail and the trail on the North Shore. The many bridges offer an effective substitute for small inclined hills. If we want a more substantial incline, that's easy...it's Pittsburgh.

10k training

Our customized training is usually performed in our training studio in downtown Pittsburgh. We have some clients though, that aren't only training for strength, but also want to run and use running as a mechanism to get healthy. We encourage this. We are working with a client who decided he wanted to run a 10k later this year. We have been working on getting in mileage so he can run a quality race. His last race was in 1982, that was also his first, so we started from scratch. He has progressed quite well, and is noticing changes in how he looks and feels. Also, he has received comments from others. We recently set up a mock race for him (5k), and he exceeded our expectations. With a little more training he will be ready for his big race.

House Calls

How many doctors are willing to come to your house? We designed our practice to make the doctors accessible, and in so doing we figured we should offer on site services. The way it works is simple.

We do recommend that the first visit is performed in the office, to make sure we get everything set up right. We can then take our 15 lb portable chiropractic table to your house and give the treatments there. Many people will have problems where they "can't even move" and it's quite a hassle to try to get to the office. In those situations its nice to be able to take our services to them. It's possible because we don't need that much equipment to treat people. There is an increased value in our care when we do this.

We also offer on site fitness training which has been popular and successful with some of the local apartments.
