It seems of late Russia is getting into the Western style- gyms. I think it's such a luxury to have a personal trainer, and Alex Reznik, founder of Complete Body in NYC is back at it in his motherland. Alex states,“In the last three to five years, you see Russian businessmen who are in shape, who are drinking water, People have decided that they want to live longer.”
I teach group classes at Complete Body, and I like their approach. Complete Body bring the yoga to you. In summer we practice on the roof decks with a beautiful view of the horizon. Another thing that stands out about Alex is he uses fitness strategies that he learned when training soldiers in the Soviet Army. His workouts consist of things like push-ups, sit-ups and balancing exercises often they require little more than body weight. He blends the military toughness with martial arts, yoga, Pilates and meditation, as well as dietary and medical coaching.
Lastly, Deepak Chopra, the guru of alternative medicine and wellness, has been a mentor and a client since 2002. I guess that about sums up Alex's effectiveness.
