Lori Farkas

I am a Personal Trainer, Fitness Coach and Group Fitness Instructor Certified through the American Council on Exercise, since 1998. I am available in the Long Beach and La Quinta areas of California and currently work with clients in various Body Strength, CORE Conditioning, Aquatic Fitness and Mat Pilates formats. I do one-on-one Fitness Training, Group Fitness Coaching, Workshops and Fitness Education formats. My specialties include Female Fitness, Fitness after 50, Special Populations, Prehab, Post Rehab, Aquatic Fitness, CORE Conditioning, Sports Performance and Weight Management. I am listed with AARP as a Recommended Fitness Professional. In my practice the average demographic I work with is the female and male client/participant, average age mid 30’s to 90 years of age. Many of the clientele I work with are considered ‘Special Populations’ diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis, Osteoarthritis, Fibromyalgia, Diabetes, Breast Cancer, Lung Cancer, COPD, Hypertension and Obesity. Others I work with are 'PreHab' clients conditioning their bodies for the physical trauma of upcoming surgery and Post-Rehab clients following regular rehabilitation for knee replacement, hip replacement, spinal fusion, arm, wrist, shoulder, knee and ankle injury as well. My husband and I have a home in La Quinta, where we reside full time however, I currently commute to Long Beach where I work with clients Monday evening through Thursday, then I’m back in La Quinta late Thursday through Monday noon. It's a cRaZy life but I LOVE it! My clients are the BEST and they are the reason for my continued passion & enthusiasm in my chosen field... LIFE is a playground, let's PLAY!!
