Hello my name is Jesse Ashauer. I started working out when I was a 14 year old freshman who was excited about being a pro football player in the NFL. Well the NFL thing didn't workout, even though I got close, but during that time I loved everything that went into working out. I knew then that I would pursue a career in the health and fitness field. Some background about me is that I graduated from Hortonville High School in Hortonville, Wisconsin in 2000. I was a three sport athlete in football, basketball, and track. I went on to Lakeland College in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, where I played four years of college football, and graduated with a BA in Exercise Science. In the fall of 2007 I married my beautiful wife, and in march of 2010 we had our first child.
After college I got into the gym scene where I was a personal trainer at one of the top gyms in the United States. It was a great job, but there were things that bothered me. The gym wanted trainers to be pushy salesman and this turned people away, everyone knew that we would try to pitch them something. We were told to tell the client anything to get them to buy training. I quit a month later, like I said it was a great job, but I felt like I was conning people into getting physically fit. I would see people doing exercises wrong and not knowing what they were doing. I would offer help, but they didn't want it because they figured I would try to sell them something.
I found out that most people feel intimidated, scared, and nervous around trainers, and that is why I created Personal Fitness Programs LLC. A place for you to go and get a personalized workout, some guidance, any questions you have, and even personal training if you want; at your convenience. I feel that I should cater to you, and not the other way around. I want to help you get into the best shape of your life without you feeling pressured or nervous while doing it, my biggest goal is to make you feel as comfortable as possible while not paying a lot, and you getting great results.
