What is the ACE Integrated Fitness Training (IFT) Model?
The ACE IFT Model training components—cardiorespiratory training and muscular training—are comprised of three training phases. Depending on current health, fitness and individual goals, every client will fall within one of the phases for each training component.
Clients are met exactly where they are and guided toward their goals through a combination of well-timed assessments and a comprehensive approach to functional movement, resistance, and cardiorespiratory training.

Why the ACE IFT Model Works
Unlike any other training framework in the industry, the ACE IFT Model takes a client-centered approach to training by emphasizing behavioral psychology techniques such as active listening, collaborative goal setting, and rapport development. It was created as a tool to help health and fitness professionals deliver custom, individualized exercise programs built on a foundation of meaningful rapport and strong personal connection.
For example...
A person struggling to introduce movement into their daily routine has a far different goal than an endurance athlete working to shave off minutes from their half-marathon time.
