Judge trained the rich and famous at the fancy Miraval fitness resort north of Tucson; but lucky for us mortals, he's now in charge of FIT, 110 S. Church Ave. His workouts are never the same: He moves fluidly from fitness machine to free weights to aerobic workouts to excruciating abdominal routines. Firm but never harsh, Judge works with you as a partner to help you reach your fitness goals. Since his main mission is to help clients achieve a lifestyle change that emphasizes fitness, he would rather see you progress steadily until working out becomes a necessary part of your life rather than a chore. It's true that a personal trainer might be considered a luxury, but for we slugs who've tried a dozen times to work out on our own and failed--and if you've seen us, you know who we are--Judge is no less than a miracle worker. <!-- End Capsule --> <!-- Begin Navigation --> <p><br> <center> <a href="shop16.htmlx"><img src="../images/back.gif"width=104 height=40 alt=" Page Back " border=0></a> <a href="../index.html"><img src="../images/home.gif" alt="Home Page" width=48 height=40 border=0></a> <a href="shop18.htmlx"><img src="../images/forward.gif"width=104 height=40 alt=" Page Forward " border=0></a> <p> <a href="art.htmlx">Arts & Culture</a> | <a href="cafe.htmlx">Cafés</a> | <a href="chow.htmlx">Chow</a> | <a href="cl.htmlx">City Life</a> | <a href="kid.htmlx">Kids</a> | <a href="med.htmlx">Media Blitz</a><br> <a href="mus.htmlx">Music</a> | <a href="out.htmlx">Outdoors</a> | <a href="shop.htmlx">Shopping</a> | <a href="spirit.htmlx">Spirits</a> <p> <font size=-1><a href=http://www.tucsonweekly.com/cgi-bin/pop.pl?p=tw>© 1996 Tucson Weekly</a></font> <p> </center> <!-- End Navigation --> </td></tr> </table> </body> </html>
