Intelligent Fitness

At Intelligent Fitness, the personal trainers and exercise instructors take their clients' success seriously. Instead of barking at them to exercise more, they teach their charges to maximize their workouts' effectiveness, taking a personalized approach to instruction that helps clients achieve their goals—from losing weight to tearing a phonebook in half with one hand tied behind their backs. Phil Sottile, the company’s founder, guides the company’s mission to coach, mentor, and motivate clients during personal-training sessions. Also helming group sweat sessions, the certified instructors lead classes such as Intell-Barre and indoor biking, which help melt away calories and stress.
