Snapshot of What Body Renew's Personal Training Services Include
Certified Coaching, Real Results
Personal training at Body Renew starts with your goals, current fitness level, and the movements you want to improve. Your coach helps you choose exercises, learn technique, and build a routine you can follow at our Anchorage clubs.
Customized Workout Routines
Your trainer builds a workout plan around your goals and schedule, then adjusts it as you progress. Choose private training, SMART small-group sessions (Supervised Movement and Resistance Training), or 1-on-1 coaching through the Body Renew app.
Expert Trainers
Our trainers bring years of hands-on coaching experience. They help you practice exercise technique, choose an appropriate starting point, and track progress with check-ins and InBody body composition scans. Read the trainer bios to learn about their individual backgrounds.
Personalized Nutrition
Discuss your food preferences, habits, and training goals with a coach. Nutrition support includes meal planning and guidance you can use alongside your workouts. Alaska Meal Prep meals are also available for pickup at gym locations.
We Work Towards Results
Start with a baseline, follow your plan, and review what is changing. Trainer check-ins and monthly InBody scans help you track progress and decide when to adjust your workouts. Results depend on your starting point, consistency, and individual circumstances.

In Their Words
What Our Training Members Say
Excerpts from our published Member of the Month stories, in the members’ own words. Individual experiences and results vary.
I am grateful to have Paul Norris as my trainer to help guide me in building my strength, increasing my flexibility and agility while overcoming the mental barriers that come with building new habits. He reassures me and is both patient and kind when I am getting too impatient with my progress.
Not only has it been a blast training with Paul, but it's always a joy walking in every time, being around the friends we've made. It's always a comfort when Paul and Chris are in the building, and our shared love for video games and nerd culture is an added bonus.
