NYC has an abundance of gyms and trainers to go with it. Most trainers pay a small fee to bring their clients into a gym and hope that they don’t have to deal with other idiot trainers. So if you’re a Trainer in NYC you really need to be following these 3 basic rules.
You’ve seen this squat mobility drill above, it’s common for a majority of the population to look like the above pic. The issue isn’t necessarily the drill itself but the execution of the movement.
Just because it’s Thanksgiving doesn’t mean you shouldn’t workout! It’s actually probably a great time for you to get in a workout!
If you’re trying to break into the fitness field, you need to intern or volunteer with a qualified Coach. With that said, I plan to make this a series for future interns to learn from my own dumb mistakes. I’ve done MANY intern/volunteer positions, so to say the least I’ve made many mistakes. Make sure to learn from my mistakes and others so that you don’t make a jackass out of yourself…
The personal training and fitness field is funny, meaning EVERYONE is an expert. I’m happy that there are those extremely enthusiastic about the field but please don’t use terminologies you don’t understand, i.e. I heard someone say “the insertion of the hamstring inverts toward the medial aspect of the tibia”….the reality is that the hamstring is made up by 3 parts:
A warm up is very important for everyone, including athletes and regular weekend warriors. It’s a simple concept that is way too often overlooked. Most people jog on the treadmill for 5-10min, break a sweat and think they are ready to go. I even remember a athlete of mine that thought sitting in the hot tub was considered a warm up???
"In 7 weeks, my over all strength and power has increased significantly! My broad jump increased 5", bench press 15lbs, squat 40lbs, power clean 15kilos, but most of all my times on my conditioning and speed tests DRAMATICALLY dropped! Fusion's programs were very well thought out and adjusted depending on how the guys were doing. If you want results, go to Fusion!"

They're lots of trainers and programs out there offering sports performance training, many of which are misleading, questionable, and unscientific. If you're looking to cut through all the "BS" and find something that will really work for you. I would thoroughly recommend Chris Matsui to anyone. From beginning to advanced athletes, Chris' coaching will provide you with the guidance to get the results you want without all the gimmicks."

"If you're looking for professional, reliable trainers, Fusion is the way to go. They don't just randomly do a workout, they really focus on what you want and need. I was a little hesitant at first of hiring a trainer at first but Chris had a keen sense of the level of intensity I needed and wanted to be at, and it was just right! I couldn't say enough good things about Fusion."

"In a field that has many but few quality Coaches, I'm grateful to have met Coach Chris. He is extremely detailed and focused on developing the team based on quality movements, building a strong base, and keeping a supportive and competitive team atmosphere. With great Coaching and leadership, Team Fusion Weightlifting is developing into a powerful name and I'm proud to be the captain of the team."
Alex G.
Captain of Fusion Weightlifting Tea
"Being 68 years young and having gone through multiple knee and hip surgeries, I knew that staying active was going to be key for me. Chris had recommended me to try the Fusion Regeneration Process, and WOW! This was unlike any other warm up or stretching routine, I've been through. The only word I can think of is 'released', my hips, back, legs, everything just felt 'released'. "

"As a marketing executive in New York city, my work schedule demands a lot of my time so when searching for a trainer they had to not only be good but he flexible. Chris at Fusion Performance Training is just that. Not only do I feel and look better than ever before, my work was not compromised."

“Who would of thought that you could make such a big impact, so far away? Fusion’s online workout program pushed me to the next level; they were spot with everything from catering the diet, workout, and active rest for me. I tore both my ACL’s and after working with Fusion I feel like I can play basketball again! I can’t wait to get back to NYC and train with the Fusion!”
