TWR – Gym Ready Programme - Total Wellness Reconnection

What to expect,

Unconditioned clients – 8-to-12-week programme.

We would start with a full fitness and motivational assessment. Post this I will customize a programme for you that will include motivational strategies, actual one on one workouts at my private home studio. Sessions would be twice a week and typically last 60 minutes. For the physical training I apply the NASM (National Academy of Sports Medicine) OPT model that builds fitness through a process involving stabilization, Strength and Power training. On completion of the programme, you will have the skills and confidence to go to a commercial fitness Centre / gym.

More than 70% of deaths worldwide are linked to preventable chronic conditions. The science is clear – poor diet, inactivity, and metabolic dysfunction are driving this crisis, yet many people lack the knowledge or support to make meaningful changes.

Senior Clients - Anti-Aging – 12-week programme.

Mobility is life !!! It’s that simple and as populations age the majority accept the loss of mobility as “just part” of growing older. It’s imperative to remember cardiovascular training will improve the length of your life BUT strength training will significantly improve your quality of life.

I work closely with clients using creative ways to design individualized programs to meet the needs of active aging adults through evidence-based practices. I am qualified to work on the physiological, motivational and nutritional needs. Each client’s programme is highly customised, progressive and low risk. I am always conscious of possible limitations; correct technique is prioritized and care taken around any existing conditions. On completion of the programme you will have improved stability, strength and body composition. You will have the skills and knowledge to continue exercising alone.

Some notes on Sarcopenia : What is it?

Quite literally, it translates to ‘lack of flesh’. Gross right? It’s an age-related muscle disease, born of an imbalance between signals for muscle cell growth and muscle tear down. As a result, people begin to look flabby but not necessarily appearing to have any more body fat – things just look looser and floppy.

Can we stop Sarcopenia?

Honestly, we can’t stop the ageing process — I’d be a rich man if I could unlock that door for you. But, amazingly, a combination of nutritional knowledge, resistance training, cardiovascular and balance training can prevent and reverse muscle loss. This will dramatically improve mobility and the quality of life as we age.

Resistance Training,

Surprise, surprise, as with many other health issues, regular resistance training is your best weapon in the fight against Sarcopenia. It’s the optimal way to increase mass (reverse) and prevent loss (stop). There are now significant numbers of controlled studies on aging demonstrating that resistance training can significantly increase muscle strength and consequently mobility and quality of life. I suggest to all my clients to google for themselves !
