Garden City gym review - Personal Training Studio Part I

Jeff Griggs owner of Personal Training Studio

Nestled in the lower level of an office building in Garden City, the Personal Training Studio is most certainly a “hidden gem” of local gyms.  The owner, Jeff Griggs, is also a personal trainer  who grew up with a love of sports and exercise. “Being the owner of a smaller studio allows me to interact with my clients and trainers on a more personal level." says Jeff. "We are able to provide support and encouragement for each other in a way that is nearly impossible to do in a larger establishment.”
 

Inside the Personal Training Studio

Jeff not only seeks to help his clients, but also his community. About twice a year, Jeff holds a “Biggest Loser” contest where donations are collected for local charities. So far, Jeff has partnered with Mollie's Fund, and the Miracle Foundation. The contests are motivational for clients and everyone that participates is a winner.

In today's economy, the cost of having a personal trainer can be daunting. However, at PTS Jeff believes that money shouldn't be the only factor considered when taking charge of your health. "People just can't put a price on their health." says Jeff.  "In these economic times where people are watching every penny, I try to create a situation where the client is able to afford a package of sessions that will allow them to learn proper technique from a professional trainer and then they can take those skills with them to pursue on their own."
 

Inside the Personal Training Studio

Jeff is a firm believer that proper nutrition goes hand in hand with regular exercise.  Nutritionist Deb Farrell is available to assist clients who want to transform their eating habits. I have met with Deb and can honestly say that she has a genuine concern and interest for her clients to succeed in their pursuit of better health and weight loss.

 The Personal Training Studio offers a variety of classes that are held throughout the year such as yoga and kick-boxing. Upcoming classes and schedule information can be found on the PTS website. There is also a masseuse and chiropractor available by appointment.
