Ingo Logé’s dedication to being fit forever began in Detroit, Mich., when as a youngster, he and his grandmother would tune in Jack La Lanne’s TV show for their daily workout. He would also spend long days gardening.“This taught me the essential value of both strength and endurance. Those early lessons assisted me in the enjoyment of successful athletic endeavors,” Logé says.
As the owner of Fitness Forever in Palm Desert, Logé applies his unique perspective and approach to personal fitness training in a non-threatening environment. His artfully decorated facility boasts three private training rooms. “The entire room of state-of-the-art equipment is basically for you to maximize your exercise time in privacy.” There is even a Power Plate, one of today’s most unique fitness and rehabilitation devices that relies on advanced vibration technology for a 10-minute workout.
A Certified Personal Fitness Trainer with the National Academy of Sports Medicine, he is also certified as a C.H.E.K Institute Holistic Lifestyle Coach. During his more than 26 years of athletic and fitness experience, he has been the recipient of two Presidential Fitness Awards. He has been involved in training programs for the physically challenged as well as a U.S. Special Forces Team. Education has always been at the forefront for Logé. He is a consultant and lecturer to national fitness franchises as well as to Fortune 500 companies. Locally he has conducted life-changing programs for associates at the JW Marriott Desert Springs and Renaissance Esmeralda.
One of the popular activities he has initiated is grocery store tours so that clients have a better understanding of the foods they choose. Logé also offers phone consultations and on-line personal training for those looking for coaching and support. In addition, he is available to design custom gyms for both homes and corporations. An experienced tri athlete, his fitness heroes are his clients. Personal training and proper nutrition are core components in programs such as his eight-week How to Eat, Move & Be Healthy. Steve Pufpaf, market director of group sales for Western Region Marriott International, has high praise for Logé. “I know that without a doubt I have changed my life and how I approach nutrition and my overall health. Certain people make a big impact on who we become in life and I thank you….”
“There is no magic pill,” Logé says. “I am here to provide instruction and leadership but you must take responsibility for your life and body.”
