Hello! My name is Alyssa Accardo. I have been a personal trainer for several years. I recently got certified a little over a year ago through ACE. I am currently an Equinox Tier 3+ trainer. I have been through Equinox's in depth curriculum and am certified through Precision Nutrition. I specialize in weight training, nutrition coaching and corrective exercises. I find myself working with a wide variety of clients. I also am certified in training pregnant and postpartum clients. A typical session for me starts with a warm up, addressing any movement pattern issues, strength training portion and then I usually finish off with a METCON circuit. METCON is a high intensity aerobic and strength based circuit. I use it as a metabolic finisher to jump start your metabolism and keep you burning calories well after our session. This is great for someone interested in losing body fat. I also take the time to talk about specific nutrition habits to work on.

A few years ago my dad suffered from a pretty serious heart attack. I wanted to help him recover and in the process started learning more about exercise and health. I want to help more people like my dad.
