Westerfeld Fitness

History

In 2000, I made a decision to study sports physiology and exercise technique, passing the rigorous NSCA Certification Exam. In the spring of 2001, I launched my new business. I went on to study at the CHEK Institute where the fundamental principles behind a balanced neuromuscular system, sound assessment technique, and guidance in dealing with common spinal issues were presented. Later I took another CHEK course. This time, the material covered a holistic approach to lifestyle, including nutritional counseling and stress management. I was also fortunate to study Active Isolated Stretching, a system of assisted stretches that has improved range of motion and reduced or eliminated chronic pain in many of my clients. Every year I try to learn something new to add to the toolbox. Pilates is one such tool, an early form of rehabilitative core training. I annually participate in workshops, bringing in new exercises and functional training equipment such as the TRX, and lately, Kettlebells.
