Personal Training (In-Person):
If I train with you, will my workout be the same each week?
No. After an assessment involving your muscular strength, core stability, and flexibility, I will create an individualized exercise program to help reduce the likelihood of injury and address your health and fitness goals. Your workout will change every week to avoid boredom, eliminate plateaus, and enable you to get the results you want.
Am I guaranteed results?
You are 100% guaranteed REALISTIC results. We shall meet and exceed all your short term goals and you will see and feel a difference in a matter of weeks. The results are largely dependent on your commitment and adherence to the program (ie: eating right and training regularly).
But I’m intimidated by free weights. Maybe I should stick to the treadmill or use machines?
In most cases, going to a commercial fitness center and a treadmill or machines hasn’t worked for you. Functional training using free weights is an effective method to losing weight and transforming your body. Some people, and especially women, shy away from using free weights because they believe it will make them bulky and masculine and also because it seems hard to do. In the privacy of working out at your home with expert instruction, I will show you techniques using free weights to transform your body to look fit and feminine with confidence.
What am I paying for?
When you visit an attorney, doctor, or other professional, he/she is paid for the time they are spending with you, not necessarily the diagnosis or the service. The diagnosis is a result of their time spent evaluating and testing you. As your trainer, you are paying for the time I spend with you exclusively, creating and modifying your exercise program while coaching you throughout the duration of our training. You will also have periodic communication and follow-ups by email, texts, or phone calls. Meeting your goals is a result of the time we spend together.
My fitness center charges only $10 a month. Why pay for additional training with you?
That price is very low and I can’t beat that. They are obviously following a business model of high volume, which could mean lower attention to clients. My rates are higher. However, this investment in your health actually saves you something that is priceless: your TIME. For years, people go to gyms only to waste hours of their time and energy walking on treadmills and using machines–seeing little results. This is stressful and a waste of time. My programs are more effective and will enable you to spend more of your time with your family, leisure activities, and have more energy to do the things you love. In addition, as a result of being more fit, you’ll spend less time at your doctor’s office and take less, or preferably, no medications, which is a savings long-term.
Will I have the same trainer every workout?
Yes. The only trainers here at Cida Fitness are Cida and Louis Moore.

Virtual Fitness and Nutrition Coaching:
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Our remote fitness and nutrition coaching program is $250 per month. This includes a new personalized fitness workout plan each month, one 30-minute weekly Zoom or Microsoft Teams coaching call for motivation and accountability, and guidance on healthy eating habits. I believe in providing personalized coaching rather than a one-size-fits-all program. Discounts may be available for clients who need financial flexibility. First virtual call is free and there is never a contract (it is month-to-month).
What is your typical process for working with a new client?
We begin with a conversation about your goals, current fitness level, exercise experience, lifestyle, and nutrition habits. I then develop a personalized fitness plan based on your needs and available equipment. Each month, I create a new workout plan and adjust your program as you progress. Our weekly 30-minute Zoom or Teams calls provide motivation, accountability, and an opportunity to discuss your progress and healthy eating habits.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work? (Louis)
I hold a Master’s Degree in Physical Education and have more than 35 years of professional experience in fitness, sports, recreation, and personal training. My certifications include Certified Personal Trainer, Certified High Intensity Trainer, Certified Lifestyle Fitness Coach I & II, Certified Sports Medicine Specialist, Certified Senior Fitness Specialist, Certified Exercise Endocrinologist Specialist, Certified Special Populations Specialist, and Certified Strength and Sport Conditioning Specialist through IFPA.
How did you get started doing this type of work? (Louis)
My career in fitness and recreation began more than 35 years ago through my education and professional work in physical education, sports, recreation, and fitness programming. Over the years, I developed a passion for helping people improve their health and quality of life through exercise, nutrition, recreation, and healthy lifestyle habits. Remote coaching allows me to bring that experience directly to clients wherever they live. And yes, I do speak Spanish as well.
What types of clients have you worked with?
We have worked with a wide range of clients, including youth, competitive basketball and soccer athletes, and high-level fitness enthusiasts. Today, our primary focus is helping adults age 40+ lose weight, improve muscle tone and strength, enhance cardiovascular fitness, and enjoy a better quality of life. We also provide preventative cardiovascular fitness coaching and personalized post-rehabilitation cardio programs for individuals returning to exercise after completing medical rehabilitation and receiving appropriate clearance.
What advice would you give a person looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Look for a coach who listens to your goals, understands your individual needs, and provides a personalized plan rather than a generic workout. Experience and credentials are important, but so are communication, accountability, and finding someone whose coaching style fits your personality. Most importantly, choose someone who will help you develop sustainable habits you can maintain for the long term.
What questions should a person think through before talking to a fitness coach for virtual services?
Think about what you want to accomplish, what has prevented you from reaching your goals in the past, how much time you can realistically dedicate to exercise, and what equipment you have available. Also consider whether you need help primarily with fitness, nutrition, accountability, or all three. Being clear about your goals and expectations will help you and your coach determine whether remote coaching is the right fit.
