What should I expect from a Bodydoctor programme?

The traditional Bodydoctor course consists of 20 one-on-one sessions, three times per week over a six and a half week period with two assessment sessions and 18 training sessions. What you’ll get is a change in your body composition, shape and fitness levels.

The first assessment is an evaluation of your fitness boundaries and starting level. You’ll be tested on heart-lung function (aerobic), strength to weight ratio, overall strength as well as core abdominal function tests. Your body weights, composition and measurements will also be taken. Next we’ll teach you about proper cardiovascular training techniques and nutrition.

During the second assessment we’ll break down each exercise into the individual components of posture, breathing, timing and core awareness. These will be done at 70 - 80% of your maximum heart rate in order to pre-programme your muscles to an unfamiliar range of movement.

Everything is geared to giving you results by maximising your energy expenditure in minimal time. This is the true concept of working with your body.

What kind of results can I expect?

The Bodydoctor is known for helping people drop three sizes (if they are significantly overweight), lose five inches off the waist and doubling their fitness. Average results are a huge improvement in body composition, loss of unnecessary and unwanted excess fat deposits and the creation of long lean firm muscles, similar to the physique of a swimmer. Your fitness levels will improve dramatically as will your strength, balance, co-ordination, flexibility and general well-being, this is preventive healthcare in action.

How can your programme be equally effective for men and women of differing ages and levels of fitness?

All of the exercises in this program are chosen to make your core strong, yet flexible. From this strong healthy and fit core of a body you can go on to better things. Understanding what your body says to you is part of working with your body.
