THE METHODOLOGY

THE SYSTEM
BEHIND THE RESULTS

Every program is adapted from a full assessment of your body, your goal, and your starting point.

• STEP 01

M EASURE

Before your first training sessions, we run a body composition analysis, a structural balance screen, a fexibility assessment, and a full lifestyle and nutrition audit. Your data is the foundation.

• STEP 02

E NGINEER

Your program is built from the assessment results. Sport-specific where relevant. Nutrition integrated across five pillars: calories, macros, water, sleep, and NEAT.

• STEP 03

C ONDITION

Every session is 1-on-1. Every rep is logged. Your coach is not managing anyone else while you train. They’re watching your output and adjusting in real time.

• STEP 04

A CHIEVE

Body composition tracked over time. Strength data documented. Program reviewed and adjusted every 2 to 6 weeks. Habits built during the program that hold after it ends.

By FAR the best facility in Michigan!! Let me confess I have never felt very comfortable in a gym, but MECA has been one of the best choices I have ever made. Every trainer is incredibly educated and knowledgeable about training, nutrition and rehabilitation. The workout plans are personally written and implemented based on your own personal goals. My amazing trainer Liz has helped me become stronger, leaner and healthier than I have been in years- and kept me laughing through the process. I have continually been pushed to my limits, but the benefits have touched every part of my life in a positive way. The integrated nutrition plan is reasonable and easy to follow, and regular check in’s are guaranteed to keep you on track.

After Completing 12 weeks at MECA, I look and feel the strongest I've ever been. In the 12 weeks of training, I've put on nearly 20 pounds of lean muscle while dropping 5% body fat. Being a colleigate athlete I have to consistenly train my body with high intensity to keep my performance at its peak and Jared has been a big driving force in effectively pushing me to train past my limits.

I have been working with Chris Cheatham since September 2023 and making rapid and obvious improvements in very specific areas he has identified, like my shoulders and legs, along with my overall strength profile. Chris is very methodical with technique, tempo and persistence during every training session and works well with the full spectrum of clients, from seniors like myself down to the HS or college-bound athletes.
