The Exercise Coach promotes Stronger Muscles, Stronger Health, Stronger Self, and can help take you to the next level no matter your age or where you are in your fitness journey. “Making a difference in someone’s life is my passion,” owner Shelli Sifrit, says. Shelli and her husband, Mark, have been serving the Parker community since 2020 and opened their second location in Castle Rock in August of 2023. They have helped clients from 15 years-old to 87 years-old gain strength and improve health in just two 20-minute sessions a week. “Our vision is to transform the way we age,” Shelli explains.
The age-old philosophy of "just getting moving," isn't the right answer. We need muscle quality from strength training. Why is strength so important? Irwin Rosenberg, M.D., states, "Muscle to a far greater extent than people realize is responsible for the vitality of their whole physiological apparatus."
As the largest personal training studio brand, The Exercise Coach not only offers an ideal solution for busy people (two, 20-minute workouts a week), but the proprietary equipment, Exerbotics®, and coach-led workouts are differentiators that set the franchise apart. The machines measure force output for users of all levels and each person can get real-time visual feedback during the workout. And, since the information is organized and stored for each session, they can also see historical changes in strength. The coaches and the ability to see instant results right on the screen provide motivation and a sense of accomplishment.
By prioritizing resistance training to optimize health, strength and vitality, people can do what they love. “Science and medical advancements have made it that we all live longer, and people want to be active through their 40’s, 50’s, and beyond. Strength allows us to do outdoor activities safely as we age and do the things we want to do,” Shelli explains. “I have always been active, but I was late in becoming a hiker. I am much stronger than I used to be and more confident as I explore the challenging trails on the front range.”
Strength training not only improves muscle quality, it has been proven to have other positive health and fitness benefits, like reducing body fat, increasing metabolic rate, increasing bone mineral density, and reducing back and arthritic pain. Members at The Exercise Coach have also provided feedback that they are seeing improvements in A1C, cholesterol, blood pressure, and other health markers.
“Our Exercise Philosophy is to simultaneously maximize safety, effectiveness and efficiency,” Shelli relates. Having better muscle quality and strength allows people to perform activities at a higher level with greater confidence. Shelli has members reporting faster recovery from hip and knee replacements, ankle surgeries, and finding relief from neuropathy. Members have also lost weight as they gain muscle and become more active.
Shelli and Mark are excited about making a difference in the Parker and Castle Rock communities. The Exercise Coach is changing lives one member at a time. “We want to empower and inspire people to enjoy strength,” Shelli emphasizes. “Our members in Parker are like family and now we have a new family in Castle Rock too.”
