Personal training at a glance
Keeping in shape is mental as well as physical. Recognising that our reflection in the mirror is not what we want is a psychological trigger for action.
Then, we need to fix goals. To look and feel better! Clear personal goals are key to changing lifestyle, including regular physical activity and eating correctly.
Body shape is not all about fat. It is also the shape of the muscles. Weight training is not just for guys. Women also have pectorals, deltoids, abdominal and thigh muscles, etc. Regular training with light weights shapes muscles as well as eliminating fat.
The result. A better body shape and posture! Extra muscle can weigh as much as fat. But if it is in the right places, the full-length mirror and the tape measure become the judges. This is why exercise plus diet offers more benefits than diet alone.
A complete approach to weight management
Some want to lose weight for health, others for beauty. Both go hand in hand. So why do so many of the diets proposed every year by all kinds of people, from medical doctors to celebrities, fail? Because they only concentrate on food. And often on a single component like protein, or carbohydrate or fat… or pineapple or green tea.
In reality, the situation is much more complex. People are not machines. They are free to decide what they eat and drink, when and how much. So the mind is primordially important in weight management.
Behavioural researchers have studied what drives food choice. Other than taste preference, this is also a question of habits, which are socially as well as personally driven. Changing the mindset of habits is not easy.
