Fitness Assessment
A fitness assessment is an important part of any responsible training program. The assessment objectively measures your current level of physical fitness. Without an effective fitness assessment growth cannot be accurately measured. CH fitness assessments incorporate many different methods to achieve accurate results.
Strength Training
If your goal is to develop strength, CH Fitness will design a program to increase your strength. As a former Olympic weightlifter Cara's vast knowledge will ensure that workouts don't get repetitive or boring while achieving maximum results.
Tracking Results
An important part of the process is tracking results. To maximize your progress, we need to continually monitor and adjust your program. This cannot be done effectively without proper monitoring and ongoing assessments. We can continually tailor your program so that you are getting what you need to achieve your goals.
Nutrition Counseling
Together we will develop a plan for healthy eating. I will guide you through the process and help you get through hurdles along the way.
Ongoing Training and Support
CH Fitness & Performance makes it a point to show you techniques to improve flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular endurance for a lifetime. You will learn valuable techniques that can be incorporated into your lifestyle for years to come.

Performance Testimonials 
Tanya Lindenmuth
Olympian Cycling
"GO CONFIDENTLY IN THE DIRECTION OF YOUR DREAMS. LIVE THE LIFE YOU HAVE IMAGINED! Cara Heads totally embodies this sentiment. [...]She is a dedicated athlete with a tremendous talent for "being in the zone". On more than one occasion she has helped me with Olympic Lifting techniques in the gym, which are not my forte, and it was her strength and faith in me that got me through. I was able to then carry that confidence with me and apply it to everything that I do. Cara has a made a huge contribution to the world just with her presence and, I'm excited to say, has now chosen to share the secrets of her success with others."
Misty May Treanor
Olympic Gold Medalist Beach Volleyball
"...if Cara wins or loses she still looks positively at things and smiles. She knows how lucky she is to have the opportunities that she does because there are others that aren't as fortunate. Cara is a giver and finds time to help others out. She would give you her shirt off of her back. And I am happy that she is taking the time to show others how to live their lives like champions."
