Strong & Lean Health and Fitness Assessment
If you’re not assessing – you’re just guessing!
Everyone who comes to see me whether they become a Strong & Lean client or not starts with a comprehensive health and fitness assessment. And it’s totally free. The reason being in order to train you effectively I need to know as much about you as possible. In this 1 hour assessment you will learn and receive :
Goal Setting
Success happens by design. Goal setting is often one aspect completely ignored by trainers. It’s funny though if you talk to successful people they all set goals and knew exactly where they should be at any given point in their chosen path to success. I believe so should you if you are going to be successful in weight loss, fat loss and strength development.
12 Site Body Fat Test
If you want to lose fat we need to know where you are and where you want to be. I use a 12 site test known as a 12 site fat test. The 12 site pinch test will let me determine your lean body mass and body fat percentage. This will in turn allow me to suggest the proper ration of protein, carbohydrates and fat for your fitness goals.
Flexibility / Range Of Motion Assessment
Learn what’s tight and what’s weak so you know what to stretch and what to strengthen. A very simple example is if like most people you have tight calf muscles you may not be able to perform a full squat properly as the calf inhibits the ability of the knee to come forward. Simply mobilising the ankle joint can increase your depth and get you hitting those glutes and core properly.
Lifestyle Assessment
Are lifestyle choices like lack of sleep inhibiting your goals? Lack of sleep has a big impact on your ability to absorb sugar, your food choices, your satiation levels, your energy, your mood, and is one of the simplest lifestyle changes you can make to accelerate results.
Nutritional Assessment
The diet that works best for you is the diet you can stick to. Everybody has a different need for protein, carbohydrates and fat based on their lean body mass so no two diets at strong and lean look the same. These are as individual as you and your lifestyle. I take into account training type, daily activity, sleep schedules, lean body mass amount, body fat percentage and personal preferences with food to try and build the best diet for you, that you can stick to.
Strength Testing
Strength training done poorly can injure you, so determing your current strength levels and assigning the proper exercises to your body type is kep to getting stronger safely. I ensure i assess you properly before I ever train you so I know where you are at.
Motivation
Let’s face it we all need a push from time to time so this is why I’m here. Weekly accountability is the number one factor that determines you reaching your personal training goals.
