Latest News
SCI-FIT is proud to announce that we will be opening a new center this summer in Sacramento, CA. Please make sure you join our mailing list if you are interested in being a part of our program.
We would like to welcome our newest staff member Rachael Martinez.
Rachael has her BS in Exercise Biology from UC Davis. She played lacrosse
all four years in college and was team captain. Rachael uses her team
minded outlook and positive attitude while working with SCI-FIT clients.
We are always looking for the newest exercise equipment out there and we
just added the Marpo VMX Multi-Mode Rope Trainer to our state-of-the-art
facility. Marpo is a dynamic resistance trainer that allows you to
strengthen your upper-body and core while getting an amazing cardio
workout. It is known as the "upper-body treadmill".
Client Corner
Natalea is our first double amputee client. She started with us in June
of 2012. Her goals are to gain muscle strength, loose weight and walk
with her prosthetics. In the 8 months Nat has been with us she has made
leaps and bounds. She could only stand in her prosthetics for about 10
minutes when she first started now she is up and walking at the parallel
bars for an hour. She also went from seated ball tosses to doing the same
workout while standing in her prosthetics.
Dylan was injured in November of 2011 from a snowboarding accident. He
started our program August of 2012. Dylan's endurance has increased
tremendously since he started. He went from completing a one hour session
exhausted to now doing a 3 hour workout with out resting and giving it his
all the whole time. Dylan's core strength has increased so much that he is
able to do 40 ten pound medicine ball slams in a row while kneeling.
Dylan also came to us unable to walk and as of March 2013 he is walking 3
times around our facility with a walker. He is pulling his legs trough
unassisted and we are assisting in locking out.
