Personal Training
That's Smart, Safe, and Effective
Upright Health's unique approach to training helps you get stronger safely.
We know how frustrating it is to try to solve your body's problems because we've been there.
That's why we coach differently. We work to systematically identify and address your individual needs. We select corrective exercises that help you engage the right muscles at the right time.
And then we help you build strength and coordination so that you can move with confidence.
Our Movement Coaching Addresses Limitations, Pain, And Weakness With Three Key Tactics
Tissue Work
Strategically applied massage techniques help your muscles relax and function better.
STRETCHING
Restoring flexibility helps prepare your body for better performance.
REACTIVATION
Waking up dormant muscles and strengthening them in balance with other muscles makes you more resilient.
What to Expect From Our Movement Coaches
We won't give you the same old routines that you've gotten a hundred times. You won't be told that "it's just your core," that "you're just getting old," or that "you have a joint disease."
We help you solve YOUR movement problems.
Sessions are a team effort to help you establish the strength and coordination to move in ways that are more efficient and healthy.
If you're a local or skype client, sessions generally start at once or twice per week. If you're a Parachute Programmer, you'll have a much more intensive schedule.
At each session, your workouts and home exercise assignments will be adjusted to help you understand and get around movement roadblocks.
What to expect from consistent training
- Ability to lift heavy objects without fear
- Better posture
- Fewer aches and pains
- More confidence in your daily life
- Better balance

- Smoother, easier movement in daily life

Frequently Asked Questions
Generally no. We aren't doctors or physical therapists. We don't approach challenges the way medical professionals do. We think this is a huge advantage, but it also means medical insurance doesn't cover our services.
No. Single sessions do not give you or your coach enough time to make progress. A single session sets unrealistic expectations and creates an environment that is not conducive to open communication and collaboration.
No, it isn't. There is nothing that can fully replace the speed and efficiency of in-person interaction.
That said, online coaching can still be very effective if you're committed to following through on your workouts at home.
The real comparison to make is between NO training, INCOMPETENT training or ONLINE training.
And in that comparison, ONLINE training wins hands-down.
We have two locations in the United States.
We are in Silicon Valley in Redwood City, CA and on the east coast in Tenafly, NJ.
