With the most recent flash of violence in Philadelphia, PA causing an abrupt wake-up to families that are dreaming about a safer Philly, WVSR-AM Talkradio wvsr1360.com has connected with a well known personal fitness trainer based in New York City to come to Philly to help families cope with gun-violence. WVSR, Philly’s premier radio station live on the air via Internet, phones, and soon your am dial, has long recognized physical fitness and easy going nutrition as a quick solution to long term environmental improvement issues such as gun-crime, liter, and joblessness. And young people, especially in this case black males and females, quickly respond to what it means to be safe when they get a chance to be mentored by a positive celebrity giving fitness power.
Herman Smalls, C.E.O, Specialized Fitness & Nutrition Inc., has risen to the top of an industry that is fraught with gimmicks, exercise gadgets, fitness fads, and risky diets.
Smalls, who has a body bulk that is certainly not minor-league, prepares individuals and groups to begin a journey of acceptance. Acceptance of yourself and all the wonderful and beautiful talents black children bring to this mission of living healthier and safer. Smalls, a Certified Personal Trainer has provided his expertise to NBA Point Guard Rod Strickland, Singer and Actress Jennifer Holliday, Jazz legend Ron Carter, Screen and Broadway Actor Keith David, ABC Anchor Asha Blake, and Motivational Speaker Les Brown. Smalls is planning the highest level of success for youth and adults dealing with the out of control violence in Philly. Herman is willing to assist WVSR to accomplish its Stop The Violence broadcast using what he calls “the success through acceptance of the strategies, techniques and challenges necessary to achieve your goals” effort.
Smalls believes that orientation starts with a nutritional and physical assessment that will determine your cardiovascular capacity, your strengths and weaknesses, and flexibility. This assessment will identify areas that need adjustment. Kids that participate in Smalls orientation will reach completion once goals are set based on their assessment chart.
Herman Smalls has studied nutrition and fitness for two decades. His expertise has greatly benefited many individuals and organizations. Smalls, Founder and President of Specialized Fitness & Nutrition Studios, Inc., headquarters in Harlem NY, has morning and evening classes that can be arranged to fit into your schedule. The Fitness Studios have Weight training, Kicking-boxing, Aerobics Dance/ Martial Arts, Body Building, and Tai Chi classes. Nutritional Counseling and Massage Therapy is also provided. Newly developed classes, Fitness to Fight H.I.V, Postnatal Fitness, Elders 60 and Above Get Fit, have been added. And Philly could use just these curriculums especially since the rate of ills there has risen even though the city has a new Mayor and administration for 5 months now. Smalls also offers C.P.R and First Aid Certification. Herman Smalls could help WVSR draw in some of his impressive clients and corporations that include professional athletes, entertainers, news anchors, and actors to financially support stopping shootings.
Radio Personality Miss Jones, 1190 AM WLIB Radio Personality Lloyd Strahorne, CD 101.9 Radio Personality Pat Prescott, Van, Kenneth, and Badilea Woods of “Sylvia’s” Restaurant Fame, are very familiar with Smalls and youth excitement.
