WHAT TYPE OF TRAINING DO YOU NEED?

This is where people get confused and end up not adhering 100% to their training programmes.

Important Questions To Ask Yourself

  • How much time do you have available to train each day during the week?

To see good results a few hours of training are required – especially at least one day per week for cardiovascular training and one day for resistance training.

  • Do you have a target weight, a date you want this weight by and a reason for wanting the weight loss?

Having these 3 points set is very important otherwise you have no goal to reach for, leaving no motivation to get ‘somewhere’ and no reason to get there. This nearly always leaves the common “I’ll start tomorrow” answer.

  • Do you have some basic knowledge of nutrition or a diet plan to follow?

This is important, as you are burning off calories while you train but are putting them back on when eating/drinking. You also need some of the calories you eat to include good levels of vitamins and minerals. We do also supply some of the basic nutritional advice to help you.

  • Are you the member of a gym or do you have any training equipment at home?

It is beneficial to have some training equipment at home, from dumbbells to kettlebells to power bands.  These are all portable and easy to use.

  • Have you had a medical check-up (blood pressure, heart rate, etc) in the last 3 months? 

This can be a very important check up, as weight loss can effect your general fitness and depending on the current situation, it can affect the training intensity & exercises.

JUST REMEMBER

Don’t get down and feel like you’re stuck!

We know you have searched google for how to lose weight only to find that there are so many ways.  BUT they may not be sustainable.  They may cause you to lose weight too quickly.  They may leave you hungry.  They may cause you to regain all the weight and then some.  It happens to everyone not just you!

Losing weight and keeping it off isn’t so straight forward as some may think, it’s a combination of eating well and exercising. We believe in this two-pronged approach because it’s sustainable and effective. From experience we know it works.

We can provide nutrition guidance.  Usually this comes down to any of the suggestions below.  Read on if you want basic guidelines.

  1. Reduce sugars & starchy carbohydrates.
  2. Avoid bad fats (saturated and trans, these tend to be more solid at room temperature) – the exception is coconut oil which has many benefits.
  3. Eat good fats (monounsaturated and polyunsaturated, these tend to be more liquid at room temperature).
  4. Eat protein and vegetables.
  5. Practice portion control.
  6. Have a cheat meal every now and then.

Essentially, weight loss comes down to burning more calories than you eat/drink. For an average woman to maintain their weight they should eat around 2,000 & average man around 2,500 calories per day; to lose 0.5kg per week it’s around 1,500(women)/2,000(men) calories per day. So if you’re trying to lose weight and you reach for a croissant (400 calories) that’s around 1/4 of your total daily calories!
