WORKSITE WELLNESS INITIATIVES and CORPORATE FITNESS 

     What does it take to win a Calder Cup?  A 'Results-Oriented' system.  A system capable of collecting data that identifies team and individual strengths and weaknesses.  A system that uses Professional coaching to develop adherence and implement strategies.  One that addresses the needs of senior-level administration and the concerns and  wants of the workforce.  A common goal with a shared vision of productivity and success must be the driving force that creates a cohesive, committed workforce capable of greatness.  When the Providence Bruins decided it was time to distinguish themselves as the best team in the American Hockey League, they chose the NEST as the organization responsible for their physical development, health-care, and well-being.  For more information on how our 'results-oriented' system can benefit your business and employees, click here. 

'RESULTS-ORIENTED' FITNESS AND PERSONAL TRAINING SERVICES

     Although most athletes are able to perform at higher capacities than the average person, their training regimens, like those concerned with general fitness, need to address basics.  Their training programs must identify individual goals and abilities, be implemented by Professionals knowledgeable in exercise prescription and capable of developing a system of adherence, and incorporate ways of identifying progress and instilling motivation.  Experience has shown us that athletes suffer from the same pitfalls as the general fitness enthusiast.  Workouts need to be fun and challenging or they won't adhere to the program.  Workouts need to address functionality, whether it be playing on the field, shoveling the driveway, or sustaining mental focus in the workplace.  Take a look at some of the training options we have to successfully prepare our fitness clients in the game of life...click here.

ON-LINE TRAINING SYSTEMS

     Many of our Professional and collegiate athletes live outside of Rhode Island and do not have access to our facilities or coaches, year-round.  However, this doesn't mean training stops.  Just as many local athletes get busy during the year with homework, practices, games, and outside jobs.  Many cannot find the time to get to our facility.  Yet, they can't let all of their hard work and efforts, during the year, dwindle away.  What is the solution?  The On-line Training System.  Specifically, developed for the times when our athletes cannot be with us, our On-line System was created to be the 'next best thing' to working out with our coaches, in person.  For more information about our On-line Training System, click here!
