A Medical Exercise Specialist (MES) is a fitness professional specializing in managing medical conditions using ONLY exercise. The MES develops safe and effective programming for clients with a wide range of medical conditions including musculoskeletal, neurological, cardiovascular and metabolic. The MES uses 3 primary modalities:

1. Strength Training
2. Cardiovascular Training
3. Flexibility Training

while using medical exercise training protocols. The protocols avoid any important points from falling thru the cracks. The Medical Exercise Specialist provides no aspect of medical treatment or diagnostic services.
