Fitler Square offers something that’s increasingly difficult to find in Center City: a residential neighborhood that’s close to everything without feeling like you’re in the middle of everything.
Your workout doesn’t have to take you far from the neighborhood either.
The Summit’s Rittenhouse studio is located at 255 S. 17th Street, making private personal training convenient for people living in Fitler Square, the Schuylkill River Park area, and western Rittenhouse Square.
Instead of commuting to another part of Philadelphia to exercise, you can work with a personal trainer nearby and make strength training part of your regular routine.
The Summit specializes in one on one personal training.
You aren’t joining a class or following a workout designed for dozens of other people.
Your trainer develops your program around your starting point and what you want to accomplish.
If you’re new to exercise, we can start there.
If you’ve trained for years but feel like you’ve stopped progressing, we can start there.
If you’re dealing with limitations from an old injury, your program can take those into account.
And if your primary goal is simply to stay strong and physically capable, we can build around that too.
There isn’t a standard Summit workout because there isn’t a standard Summit client.
You don’t have to be an athlete to benefit from becoming stronger.
Strength can affect everyday activities ranging from carrying groceries and climbing stairs to traveling, playing sports, and keeping up with your family.
A structured strength training program can also help you maintain muscle rather than relying entirely on walking, cardio, or other forms of physical activity.
Your trainer will determine which exercises are appropriate for you and gradually progress your program as your abilities improve.
Fitler Square and the nearby Schuylkill River area make it easy to stay active outside the gym.
You might regularly walk or run along the Schuylkill River Trail, play tennis, cycle, golf, or simply accumulate a significant amount of walking around Center City.
Those activities are valuable, but they don’t necessarily replace resistance training.
Your personal training program can complement the activities you’re already doing rather than compete with them.
If you run, your trainer can take your running schedule into account.
If you play tennis or golf, training can emphasize physical qualities that support those activities.
If you already get plenty of cardio, your time in the studio can place greater emphasis on strength.
Your exercise program should make sense as part of your entire lifestyle.
You don’t need separate programs for strength and mobility.
Mobility can be incorporated directly into your workouts based on what you need.
Your trainer may address areas such as hip mobility, shoulder movement, ankle mobility, or other restrictions while simultaneously working to improve strength.
The objective isn’t simply to become more flexible.
It’s to help you develop usable movement and strength for everyday life and the activities you enjoy.
Previous injuries can make returning to exercise intimidating.
You may know that you need to become stronger but aren’t sure which exercises are appropriate or how aggressively you should progress.
At The Summit, your trainer can consider your injury history and current abilities when developing your exercise program.
If you’ve recently completed physical therapy, we can also work within recommendations provided by your physical therapist or physician when appropriate.
Personal training is not a replacement for medical treatment or physical therapy. It can, however, provide a structured way to continue developing strength and fitness once you’re ready for exercise.
Many Fitler Square residents aren’t interested in exercising simply to look better.
They want to stay capable.
They want to maintain muscle, continue traveling, walk comfortably, play golf or tennis, improve balance, and remain physically independent.
Strength training becomes particularly valuable when maintaining physical ability is the goal.
Your program can emphasize strength, balance, mobility, and functional movements based on your individual needs rather than your age alone.
You don’t have to train like you did at 25.
You need to train appropriately for what you want your body to be capable of doing now and in the years ahead.
Living in Fitler Square can make Center City extremely accessible, but a convenient location doesn’t necessarily create more hours in your day.
That’s why we offer both 30 minute and 60 minute personal training sessions.
For busy professionals, a 30 minute session can provide a structured workout without requiring a long gym visit.
Your trainer has your workout planned before you arrive. You don’t need to decide which exercises to perform, wait for a class to start, or spend time wandering between machines.
You show up and train.
Personal training at The Summit can be structured around a wide range of goals, including:
Building strength and muscle
Losing body fat
Increasing mobility
Improving balance and stability
Maintaining strength as you get older
Returning to exercise after time away
Exercising around previous injuries
Improving posture and movement
Supporting tennis, golf, running, and other activities
Creating a consistent exercise routine
Your consultation gives us an opportunity to learn which of these goals matter to you and how training can fit into your schedule.
Tell us what you’d like to accomplish and we’ll help you determine the best place to start.
If changing your body composition is one of your goals, scale weight doesn’t tell the entire story.
Our Rittenhouse studio offers InBody body composition analysis, which provides measurements including muscle mass and body fat.
This allows you to look beyond the number on the scale and evaluate whether your body composition is changing as your training progresses.
It can be particularly useful when your goal is to lose body fat while maintaining or building muscle.
The Summit isn’t designed to be the biggest gym in Philadelphia.
We focus on providing individualized personal training in a professional environment.

Private one on one personal training
30 minute and 60 minute sessions
