Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

Our rates are fixed and based on how many sessions the client trains each week. The price includes travel time to and from the client's location! Our cost is: - $70.00/session at 1x/wk. - $65.00/session at 2x/wk. - $60.00/session at 3x/wk. - $55.00/session at 4x/wk. - $50.00/session at 5x/wk. *Exclusions apply*

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

We begin every partnership with a complimentary, in-depth health assessment. This session is designed to help us understand your goals, evaluate your current fitness level, and create a personalized plan tailored to your needs. It’s also a great opportunity for you to get to know your trainer and feel confident about the journey ahead. Our assessment includes: - Body composition analysis - Cardiovascular fitness testing - Postural evaluation - Measurements to track progress And more! We believe in starting strong, which is why we use evidence-based methods to guide our recommendations—no guesswork involved. This ensures you’re set up for success from day one, with a clear roadmap and the full support of your professionally certified trainer. Let’s work together to make your goals a reality!

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

At Full Scale Fitness, we prioritize expertise and education to provide the highest quality service to our clients. Each of our trainers is not only certified by a nationally recognized personal training organization, but they also hold (at minimum) a bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science. In addition, all trainers are encouraged to be CPR and First Aid certified through the American Red Cross, ensuring safety and professionalism in every session. Our owner brings a wealth of experience and unique credentials to the team. He has worked under LeBron James’ biomechanist, Donnie Raimon, and holds the prestigious DBC-1 certification—one of the few professionals in Ohio with this qualification. Beyond this, he also taught Kinesiology at the University of Akron for four years, further demonstrating his commitment to education and advancing the field. With this solid foundation of knowledge and experience, our team is equipped to help you achieve your goals safely, effectively, and with results you can trust.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

Our team is made up of true advocates for health and wellness, each with a unique story that fuels their passion for helping others. Many of us started by overcoming our own personal health challenges or discovering the transformative power of fitness in our own lives. Experiencing firsthand how life-changing health and wellness can be inspired us to share that gift with others. This passion drives everything we do at Full Scale Fitness. We’re not just trainers—we’re motivators, educators, and partners in helping clients unlock their potential. Our mission is simple: to change the world, one person at a time, by empowering people to lead healthier, more fulfilling lives.

What types of customers have you worked with?

Our trainers have experience working with a wide range of clients, making us adaptable to virtually any need or goal. From collegiate athletes refining their skills and performance to individuals managing unique health challenges such as diabetes, post-bypass recovery, or other special population concerns, we’ve successfully helped clients at every level. Whether your goal is to lose weight, build muscle, improve mobility, or simply lead a healthier lifestyle, we’re here to support you. At Full Scale Fitness, we pride ourselves on creating customized plans that meet each client where they are, ensuring results that align with their unique aspirations and abilities.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

When choosing a personal trainer, prioritize education and expertise over appearances. While many trainers may look the part, their qualifications are what truly matter. Start by ensuring they are certified through a nationally recognized organization. More importantly, look for formal education in Exercise Science or a related field. The fitness industry is flooded with individuals who can obtain certifications in as little as 24 hours—far too short a time to develop the deep understanding of exercise physiology and practical experience needed to provide effective, safe training. Knowledge, combined with the ability to apply it, is what sets truly exceptional trainers apart. At Full Scale Fitness, our trainers embody this standard, and we’re ready to show you what it means to work with true health and fitness experts.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

1. How experienced are they? Ask how long they’ve been training individuals and what types of clients they’ve worked with to gauge their expertise. 2. What are their qualifications? Find out their highest level of certification and if they have formal education in Exercise Science or a related field. 3. Do they use a clinically based approach? Ask if their health assessments and training methods are evidence-based and personalized to your unique needs. By considering these factors, you’ll ensure you’re choosing a professional who is not only qualified but also capable of helping you achieve your goals safely and effectively.
