Initial Free Consultation (Includes Lifestyle questionnaire and Goal Setting)
Once you make contact We will arrange an initial free consultation to discuss your lifestyle, current activity levels and existing state of health. You will be asked to truthfully and confidentially complete a questionnaire and consent form regarding these matters.
During this session please feel free to ask as many questions as you like in order to get a better feel for what we do or simply put your mind at rest about what may lay ahead. You can look at it as a kind of "get to know each other " before deciding on whether you feel sure you would wish to pursue.
We will also discuss with you your specific goals and what you are looking to achieve in both the short term and the long term. We will talk over your likes and dislikes when it comes to exercise as this plays a massive part. If your not ready to go to a gym for whatever reason, no problem we want you to feel totally comfortable about what you are about to embark on.
Fitness Assessing
Once the initial free consultation and lifestyle questionnaire is complete you will be asked to undergo a series of tests as to establish your current fitness levels in order for us to design a safe, specific and progressive program tailored for your needs.
Tests / Assessments:
Flexibility and Range of Movement
Postural Assessment
One Minute Sit up Test
Resting Heart Rate Assessed
Body Mass Index (BMI)
Waist to Hip Ratio
3 Minute Step up test
Do not panic! A lot of this doesn't actually involve any great deal of activity, just us assessing you at your normal resting state and making a few notes!
After the tests we will devise an exercise program tailored to your needs. When devising your fitness program I work to an acronym known as
SMARTER…
Specific – To your goals (If it’s weight loss, we won’t have you pumping massive weights!)
Measured – We will measure and monitor your progress in every session.
Agreed – We will devise the program but we want you to agree that you are happy with it.
Realistic – Okay you might not have that six pack in two weeks but in 3 months?
Time Framed – Your goals will be time framed and structured so we know what we are working to
Enjoyable –Each session will be fun and a little different from the last so it doesn’t become boring.
Recorded – Your progress will be recorded every step of the way and presented to you at the end of your time with us.
We will also give you a schedule to follow on days that you are not training with us.
Okay, it’s time to get fit!
