Team OPFit would like to introduce our new Fitness Coach Debbie Press! www.teamopfit.com to email and schedule.
Debbie Press’ passion has long been health, fitness, and nutrition. She’s fascinated with how the body moves, how proper movement patterns lead to better body mechanics. She’s committed to finding and sharing effective ways to nourish one’s body, to help fuel it for physical demands and to speed up recovery. It’s all about feeling the best one can, especially as we age.
A knee injury at age 19 was the impetus to correct her body’s imbalances. She uses the knowledge she continues to learn to help others overcome their physical limitations so they can keep moving and stay active.
Debbie trains individual clients and has taught Indoor Cycling and Small Group Strength Training classes at the Tom Muehlenbeck Recreation Center in Plano since 2013. She has numerous certifications ranging from: Cooper Institute/American Council on Exercise (Certified Personal Trainer, Functional Fitness Training, Postural Assessment and Corrective Exercise, Interval Training and Indoor Cycling), Ortho-Kinetics Professional Trainer (Anatomical Design and Function, Neuromuscular System Unilateral Training, Musculoskeletal System Upper/Lower Body), Functional Movement Systems (Level 1), and Road Running Club of America (RRCA Running Coach). She recently took the FMS Level II course and participated in a National Academy of Sports Medicine workshop on Movement Mechanics. She focuses her continuing education on body alignment and injury prevention.
Debbie works with a wide variety of populations and specializes in strength training, endurance, flexibility, injury prevention/prehab and rehabilitation, sport-specific and run coaching, and nutritional planning.
When she’s not at the gym, she enjoys cooking, riding her bike and covering the local running/triathlon scene, interviewing participants and writing stories for DFW Running. She’s a longtime freelance contributor for the Dallas Morning News..full bio at www.teamopfit.com
