Personal Fitness Programmes

The Fitness Foundation ethos 

Personal training is conducted by a fitness professional whose aim is to help you achieve personal health and well being. Whether it be to lose weight, improve body shape, or simply look and feel better, your personal trainer is a source of motivation and regular goal setting.

A holistic approach to your health will not only focus on fitness, but tailor a complete health and wellness package to incorporate expert guidance on relaxation, stress management, nutrition and work toward a balanced lifestyle.

What personal training is not?

Personal training does not involve an iron-pumping, macho drill sergeant whose sole aim is to watch you sweat and strain as you "go for the burn"! Fanaticism will result in little success. Too much exercise is as damaging as too little. Realism and balance are the keys to successful lifestyle change.

How does the Executive Fitness Foundation Personal Training Programme work?

Step 1

An introductory session is conducted to determine your personal health and fitness goals and what you expect to achieve from your time with a personal trainer. It is also an opportunity to gather some important health measures (e.g. blood pressure, body fat, lung function, body weight, VO2 [fitness level], flexibility) from which to monitor your progress.

Step 2

Regular meetings with your personal trainer with adjustments to your health and fitness plan as your new image begins to take shape and energy levels improve.

Step 3

RELAX as the kilo's drop and your overall health improves! But remember to use the email and phone support on offer.

Benefits of Exercise: The Facts

Feel Good

Regular exercise produces euphoric feelings due to the release of specific chemicals into the brain.

Look Good

Exercise can slow the ageing process, a healthy glow and younger appearance becomes apparent.

Stronger Heart

Heart disease is one of the world's biggest killers. Increased use of the heart through exercise will result in a more efficient and healthy cardiovascular system.

Greater Confidence and Self-esteem

Mastery of your exercise programme and the fortunes of your health will lead to improved belief in personal achievement, ability and mental capacity. This confidence will spread to all aspects of your life.

Increased Muscle Tone

Greater muscular capacity results in improved energy and better posture. The loss of fat around the muscle will give you the toned look you are after.

Reduced Stress

Life can be full of stress. It's how you deal with it that matters most. By improving concentration and motivation, exercise helps you tackle those stressful situations head on.

Lower Cholesterol

Exercise results in higher levels of HDL protective lipoproteins, and a lower triglyceride count (blood fat) giving you a significant advantage in the fight against heart disease, hypertension and coronary thrombosis.

Greater Resistance to Illness

A higher presence of white blood cells and lymphocytes (your body's immune defence system) helps you ward off colds and flu.

Better Breathing

Exercise improves the efficiency of diaphragm movement. Oxygen is diffused into the blood stream more effectively and waste products are more easily removed.
