Opening to our community is a medically advanced and real world experienced approach to the foundation of any health and fitness plan. We would like to introduce you to Set Point Physiology, Brad and Mary Burke, local trainers and consultants in the fitness industry since 1985, and their Medical Director, Dr. Larry H. Hooper, M.D., board certified and member of The American Association of Anti- Aging Medicine. "

They’ve combined their years of credentials and experience with the latest in molecular testing and blood screenings to identify key components in your genetic pre-dispositions, hormone levels, food and drug allergies and propensitites in your body’s response to physical activity to design programs that take the guesswork out of bouncing from program to program or as a guideline to fine tune a system you already enjoy."

Wonder why your program isn’t working when you work out harder and eat better than your friend, that is losing weight, and you’re not? Why your other friend eats right, exercises and suffers a heart attack at 38? Helping your son or daughter battling weight issues at a young age that seem unexplained? Why you know your body shouldn’t “feel this old”? "

Your Set Point is the median that your body operates for extended periods of time: “setting” down as you age or “re-set” based on an appropriated action plan. These points are based on four principle factors, and how they collectively work, or are malfunctioning, is determining the way you feel, look and age. "

Don’t settle for trying to add years to your life - add life to your years! Come see us and discover that
