It is no secret that physical activity uses energy which in turn burns calories. But how do you get the most out of a session? How do you accurately monitor your progress?
By setting clear, measurable goals you can pave the way to success. In the consultation we use simple tests and measurements to gain an understanding of where you are in relation to fitness levels. We can then use this information to set specific goals.
These goals come in the form of:
Usually a weekly or fortnightly target
Monthly to 3 monthly target
6 month target or final target
You can set as many targets as you want. Ranging from four hours gym time a week to cutting out that extra take away night.
We then repeat the tests over a specified period of time in order to accurately measure progress. This method allows you to understand how your exercise and diet are effecting your body, and should serve as an encouragement that you are achieving your marker goals all the time on your way to smashing the big one.
Here are some of the tests we can use:
• Body fat percentage
• Body part circumferences
• Flexibility
• VO2 max
• Blood pressure
• Resting heart rate
Depending on your goals, other tests can be conducted.
