Smart Body Wants YOU

Recently, The World Health Organization declared that for the first time in the history of mankind, more people suffered from obesity than the opposite, specifically noting that the greater problem was seen with youth from poor lifestyle and family habits.

To help keep tabs on obesity here in good ole' St. Charles County, Cottleville-based Smart Body 24/7 Health & Fitness has opened one of the only 24-hour, 7 day a week fitness facilities located in the St Peters / Cottleville area. Smart Body has created an affordable and convenient health & fitness alternative to large, impersonal, overpriced health clubs, and there is no contract to join.

Keith Robinson, owner and president of Smart Body is excited to be here, "Fitness is an integral part of living well," he asserts. "With work and family commitments, we are all often so busy that it seems impossible to make time for a fitness/wellness program. For that reason, our clients have options that give them full 24 hour access to the fitness facility, access to a professional, certified staff dietician, and elite resources in yoga, pilates, and cardio-kickboxing to keep it interesting. We've also added Strive, a revolutionary weight training tool that is the most effective and efficient form of strength training available. Strive's Smart Strength method is being used by the Green Bay Packers, Pittsburg Steelers, and celebrity trainers. Changing the routine with resources such as these can keep fitness and wellness programs beneficial and fun."

Smart Body is the first and only Gym in Missouri to offer "STRIVE Smart Strength", the most advanced circuit training in the world, used to train the beautiful bodies of such Hollywood stars as Jennifer Lopez, and has the fitness center has staff on site from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday to assist members and guests with equipment and any questions they may have while on their journey to better health.

Smart Body's super clean facility, personable staff and upbeat atmosphere make for an extremely pleasant work-out experience, accommodating gym goers of all ages at all fitness levels. Greg Marmino, General Manager and Personal Trainer with Smart Body had this to say: "We take a personal, holistic, non-intimidating approach to fitness that builds confidence in each of our clients. We encourage our clients to be active, careful listeners to their bodies as well as to the advice of their doctors for an authentic sense of wellness. There's nothing better than a feel-good, feel-healthy lifestyle, and that is the goal."

St. Charles County residents are actively looking for ways to accompany their children down a healthier path, and Smart Body intends to be THE resource for local area residents.
