What is our intake process?

At R3VIVE, we believe in a thorough and personalized approach to fitness. Our 3-Step Intake Process is designed to prioritize consistent, quality movement, creating a solid foundation to kickoff your fitness journey.

Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Initial Consultation

Your journey begins with a 30-minute consultation where our experienced coaches:

  • Learn about your goals and fitness history.
  • Understand any injuries, surgeries, or movement limitations.
  • Discuss what motivates you and how you learn best.

This step allows us to create a personalized path forward that’s tailored to your needs and aspirations. Additionally, it allows a coach to explain our pricing for memberships, packages, nutrition coaching, personal training, and program design.

 

Step 2: Body & Movement Assessment

Next, we conduct a joint-by-joint movement assessment to evaluate:

  • Flexibility (passive range of motion)
  • Mobility (active range of motion)
  • Core strength
  • Aerobic capacity
  • Any movement challenges caused by previous injuries

This thorough evaluation helps us understand your current fitness level and identify areas to focus on. With this knowledge, we can coach you more effectively (in classes or one-on-one) and personalize your program to set you up for pain-free, sustainable progress.

 

Step 3: Foundations Program

The final step is our Foundations Program , where we focus on teaching proper movement mechanics and building confidence. This one-on-one program is tailored to your individual needs, with sessions ranging from 2 to 5 based on your:

  • Training history
  • Injuries or surgeries
  • Movement limitations

During these sessions, our coaches help you master the fundamentals of functional fitness, ensuring you’re comfortable and ready to join group classes or progress into more advanced training. We recommend our foundations program to all our beginners before moving onto our other memberships. The program is not required for all members, if you have previous experience with functional fitness training or similar activities you can jump into whichever membership you choose. 

Why Quality Movement Matters

“Movement is essential”. We hear that often, we like to take it a step further and add that consistent, quality movement is essential.  

Our Foundations Program emphasizes consistent, quality movement because rushing through mechanics often leads to plateaus and setbacks. By focusing on a “patterns first” mindset, you’ll develop the skills needed for long-term growth while avoiding unnecessary frustrations.

We understand that quality movement is challenging to master on your own and can take years to develop. That’s why our private Foundations sessions accelerate your progress, eliminating guesswork and providing expert guidance every step of the way.

At R3VIVE, we believe your intake process should be as thoughtful and individualized as your fitness journey. Our 3-Step Intake Process is designed to help you feel confident, prepared, and excited to take on your goals.

It's an 8-week cycle that will continue to see strength progression carrying from what we did last cycle in Functional fitness. While Pump will begin working unilateral strength progressions. Functional Fitness: This cycle will continue our progression from the skill and lifts from last cycle, while trying to integrate them into more of our conditioning. We will do this by focusing on different portions of the lifts during our strength portion then performing smaller sets of gymnastic skills in our conditioning. You will also see conditioning that is purely focused on our aerobic capacity and working mainly on monostructural elements, such as running, rowing and biking. Build: This A-B week cycle is designed to build foundational strength through consistent progression, with a strong focus on Back Squats and Strict Presses, including variations for balanced weekly training. Conditioning will have some longer aerobic pieces and begin to include more skills like strict Toes-to-Bar, and Pull-ups from last cycle. See the chart below for details.
