| At the beginning of the week we will be accessing you on your body fat percentage, hip size, waist size, body weight, flexibility and your cardio vascular fitness level. |
| During the week you will be following an effective nutrition and exercise plan which will improve all the assessed areas. On the last day we carry out the same assessments to show you the improvement that you have made during the week. |
Below we have listed the 5 key areas of Health and Fitness that are important to leading a healthier lifestyle. |
| Body Fat Percentage |
| The amount of body fat you carry measured as a percentage. This measurement gives us an accurate measurement on how much body fat you have. |
| Muscular Strength. |
| In order to make our day chores more comfortable and therefore our lives easier, good muscular strength is vital. By assessing strength we can determine what level you are at and see clear progression. |
| Muscular Endurance. |
| As with strength, muscular endurance is key to every day living. If you find carrying the shopping home is difficult then it is probably the case that you have poor muscular endurance. By assessing muscular endurance we can see which areas require attention and have created a bench mark for your next assessment. |
| Flexibility. |
| Being in-flexible can lead to restrictive movement (such as difficulty getting in and out of a car) and in later life lead to poor posture and mobility. As you increase your exercise load flexibility will become very important to prevent
injuries. Often overlooked, flexibility will play an important part of your exercise program. |
| Aerobic Capacity. |
Possibly the most obvious effect of being sedentary and increasing your body fat is the loss of aerobic capacity. This can be extremely frustrating and restrictive in your life. If you have ever struggled to run for a bus or climb some stairs you will understand why aerobic capacity is so important. |
