This is quite the contrast compared to the traditional process.
I draw from past experience, such as time spent in exercise and nutrition labs, being part of a multidisciplinary team and personal training in commercial and corporate gym settings. My method is a science based approach, were I deliver top tier customer services with aspirations to deliver the best training service in Berkshire.

WHAT IS NUTRITICS?
Nutritcis is a common nutritional management tool used within health care, elite sports, the food industry and universities. Unlike Myfitnesspal, the database is regulated by registered dieticians and so you can expect a high level of accuracy.
Your report highlights variables measured (e.g. heath, strength, flexibility core strength, cardio-respiratory fitness etc.). The data from this initial battery of tests will place us in the position to take goal driven actions. Allowing me to make more informed decisions when it comes to setting your exercise frequency, intensity, volume and several other variables throughout your plan.
I will feedback to what you eat and its impact on your health, aesthetics and training in contrast to what you should eat to optimise results
I currently have Shola 4 times a week for PT and I see him at the end of the week for weekly measurements. I can honestly say out of 5 other personal trainers I have worked with throughout the last 2 years Shola has been the best. He was able to adapt my training programme when I was injured and helped me maintain my focus.
My programme was clearly tailored to suit my own needs and goals, he is extremely knowledgeable and the level of communication he gives to me is great. Shola is always able to answer any questions I have and is quick to getting back to me. Throughout my sessions Shola is very motivational pushing me to my limits making sure I excel every time as well as keeping me on track outside the hours I am not with him. His detailed approach to my nutrition and fitness plan has exceeded my expectations. Not only is my diet/macro plan sustainable it is also very enjoyable, I am never hungry nor feeling fatigue – the strongest physically and mentally I have ever been. He put together my meals after finding out what foods I like/dislike and are manageable with my day to day lifestyle. After our weekly measurements, if needed he will make changes to my plan to ensure we stay on track get the best possible results. He presents my results in a performance report which makes it very easy to understand and highlights your current progress to where you first began. He has a good eye for detail and always makes sure he is 100% confident with his actions before proceeding.
He won’t ever rush through anything, giving plenty of time to complete and ensures I perform with perfection.
Shola is professional and I feel comfortable working with him. I have recommended and will continue to recommend him for a brilliant PT!
You will be handed your meal plan based on your lifestyle assessment, food analysis and your new exercise plan. You will be also given new recipes and a shopping list.
NOTE: If I deem it necessary, you will also get a pre, in session and post workout supplement plan
The difference between success and failure is a good plan.
Continuous monitoring and evaluation is necessary to refresh your focus and motivation, to launch you merrily into the next week or phase of your training.
There will be several strategies in place:
Your updated program will be based on the previous process (Step 7A: Continuous monitoring and evaluation). Assessment specific updates will occur anytime an assessment is performed. However general updates will be carried out approximately every 4-5 weeks (i.e. at the beginning of every month).
