This workout works! I committed to doing it for a year starting last October, and my body has completely transformed. I’ve had two ACL surgeries and meniscus over the last 20 years and had residual knee pain. All of that has gone! I’m stronger, I’m fitter, and I feel better! The team here is excellent. Maricel’s leadership is unparalleled!

Frequently Asked Questions About The Perfect Workout
This sounds too good to be true – Great results in 20 minutes, twice a week?
We understand the skepticism surrounding a 20-minute exercise routine. It goes against the grain of traditional beliefs.
The truth is, if you’re doing more exercise than needed, your workout may not be intense enough. With many traditional methods, a lot of time spent during your workout is “rest time.” More rest during a workout can reduce muscle growth and cardiovascular impact.
So you can either work hard during exercise, or you can work out for a long time – but you can’t do both. Intensity is key if you want to effectively boost your metabolism, improve VO2 max, and not only build lean muscle but support your skeletal health.
Our approach is not only unique, it’s grounded in research.
We train all major muscle groups through 5-8 exercises with minimal rest between sets. Our method and technology provide the perfect resistance for every exercise, eliminating virtually any risk of injury. So you’ll spend your sessions burning more fat and building more strength than traditional weight training.
But don’t take our word for it! Come in for your own free Introductory Session. Experience the methodology first-hand, without any obligation.

I don’t have a lot of experience with exercise. Is this the right workout for me?
Absolutely! You don’t need any prior exercise experience to see results with our method.
Slow-motion strength training is incredibly effective and easy to adapt, making it perfect for beginners. Our certified trainers will guide you every step of the way, tailoring the workouts to your pace. Whether you’re new to exercise or a seasoned fitness enthusiast, The Perfect Workout is designed for all experience levels.
When will I see results?
Many of our members notice positive changes within the first 6 weeks, and some even feel the benefits almost immediately.
Everyone’s body and goals are unique, so results can vary. Your progress will depend on how your body responds to the workouts, your nutrition, and how well you push yourself. Remember, everyone’s journey is different, and we’re here to support you every step of the way! Consistency is key, so keep going, and you’ll see the progress you’re looking for.
Will I get too big and bulky?
This is a common concern, but rest assured, the answer is no.
Slow-motion strength training helps you build lean muscle mass, which will tone your body and boost your metabolism to burn more fat. Since muscle is denser than fat, adding muscle and losing fat will actually make you leaner and firmer. So, you can enjoy the benefits without worrying about getting too bulky!
Are your trainers certified?
Absolutely! Our trainers go through a rigorous education process that sets us apart.
Unlike many other certifications, ours includes extensive hands-on training with real people. We ensure our trainers are highly skilled through numerous written and practical exams. Plus, every trainer is AED/CPR certified and continually updates their knowledge with ongoing education. You can trust you’re in good hands with our team at The Perfect Workout!
