4 Body 4 Mind Course

A 6-week challenge where participants will be given a tailored calorie and a protein target based on their height, weight, age, gender and activity levels. These will be individually prepared by our Personal Trainer Claire Luvin and emailed to each participant following the Week 1 seminar.

Participants will be required to monitor their daily calorie intake, protein, step count, and Myzone MEPs, and upload them into an automated Type-Form where they can be monitored by the trainer.

A guide on how to use My Fitness Pal will be offered to those who have never used the app.

2 x 45 minutes '4 Mind 4 Body' group fitness classes will be delivered per week solely for the participants of this challenge.

Research shows that people are more successful at weight loss when part of a community with a shared goal. All participants will therefore be invited to a closed Facebook group where they will be encouraged to share their daily wins to keep motivation high.

Once a week a blog/video will be uploaded on a relevant topic such as sleep, protein or something that's trending health wise. Claire will produce content, discussion points and feedback to participants' posts and questions.

Participants will have to attend the club at least three times per week. One of those will be the group fitness class and the others a combination of either the second or third group classes or a standard timetabled class, racquet sport, swim or gym session.

Face-to-face support once a week is recommended as this is proven to be more effective for motivation and encouragement.
