We had three snow days in a row! I haven't been here at Vertex very much since my car does not like the snow very much. Since the snow came, all the tests got pushed back to this week at school, so between work and school I've lost a considerable amount of sleep this week. Today at Vertex I worked on some more stuff for the email system, as well as writing instructions for procedures. I took a break to work out with Shala, and felt my body yelling at me for not working out the past couple of weeks. It's really time for me to get back in the gym. I've been working on a press release for our new Pilates instructors. It's been really cool to learn about Belly Pilates over the last week, and all that Kelly does with her clients. We also took head shots for the website this past week and worked on “hitting the pavement" to get new clients through the door. Never a dull moment here at Vertex.</div><div><br></div><div>Nutrition tip for the day: Work out with a friend! This keeps you accountable. You're much less likely to hit the “Snooze" button if you've got someone waiting for you.</div> http://www.mainlinepersonaltrainer.com/blog/comments/119/ Fri, 19 Feb 2010 16:00:00 GMT webmaster@vertexfitness.com (Vertex Fitness) http://www.mainlinepersonaltrainer.com/blog/comments/114/ <div>Working at Vertex as a marketing intern has proven to be very different from my other internship experiences. After working in London and back home on Long Island, Vertex has allowed me to mold my own experience. I work on things that I think are important and have been helping them to develop a unique marketing mix for their client base. Coming from the Villanova Business School, I was led to believe that internships are very structured and boring, full of stupid tasks like getting coffee and filing. This has not been the case at Vertex. I was immediately entrusted with a series of very important tasks and have worked directly with most of the staff members. The team atmosphere brings in a feeling of the “Vertex family" that is warm and welcoming to all of its employees as well as clients. This place is full of jokes and laughter, all the while keeping a distinct focus on the goal of the organization--serving its clients. After working out with Shala, I can see how Vertex uses its unique program to help its clients reach their fitness goals. Those are all my thoughts for now.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>Tip for the day: Walk to class or run to the gym instead of driving. It'll help get you in the zone to work out or get focused.</div><div><br></div><div><a href="mailto:crystie.bowe@vertexfit.com" title="crystie bowe marketing intern from villanova university vertex fitness personal training studio best of the main line health and firtness">Crystie Bowe</a></div><div>Marketing Intern from Villanova University</div><div><a href="http://www.vertexfit.com" target="_blank" title="vertex fitness personal training studio best of the main line health and fitness">Vertex Fitness Personal Training Studio</a></div> http://www.mainlinepersonaltrainer.com/blog/comments/114/ Tue, 9 Feb 2010 16:00:00 GMT webmaster@vertexfitness.com (Vertex Fitness)
