West Perth Personal Trainer review by Steve Deane from Nu Studio

Wishing Steve Deane who heads up Nu Studio a big season kite surfing and thanks for the feedback:

“I have been training with Evolve Health on and off for over three years now. Each winter I sign up for their personal circuit training program, which gets me fit for a summer of kitesurfing. Every four weeks we change my routine, so it never gets old. These guys come highly recommended! – Steve Deane, nustudio.com.au

We will catch you winter 2013 when the Fremantle Doctor rests.

Thanks to Peter Gibbs for a humourous summary of his first 5 weeks with Evolve Health.

PRE  EVOLVE HEALTH
 
Well I guess you could say that it all began on the 5th September 2011.
That was the day Evolve Heath came into my life.
I was a portly 110kg + and feeling the worst I have for a long time.
I hadn’t exercised for at least 2 years.
Fortunately Tony de Graaf took pity on my condition and changed my life’s direction.
Prior to Evolve Health’s involvement it would not be unusual for me to dine out at least 5 times per week.
My average daily calorie intake from food and alcohol would exceed 5000 regularly.
My sleep pattern was erratic sometimes waking 6-8 times a night.
I was accused of break dancing in my sleep.
By mid-afternoon I was dozing off at my desk.
I could wake the neighbours with my snoring and was always complaining of one ailment or another.
I had no desire to exercise and lacked the energy to try.
 
POST EVOLVE HEALTH
 
It has now been 5 weeks and approximately 30 sessions (less Kidney Stone and Flu) and boy has my life changed.
I am currently  99.5kg (14.5kg to go)
My daily calorie intake is 1400 via the Metabolic Jumpstart Diet Plan.
I have not had an alcoholic drink for over 40 days (only 50 days to go).
I sleep constantly for at least 8 hours each night and have not woken during the night.
I wake up in bed where I went to sleep and hardly disturb the rest of the bed.
I have stopped snoring (according to people who would know).
My energy levels are better than they have been for a long time.
All the ache and pains I was getting have gone (apart from the gruelling training regime twinges)
I have never drunk so much water in my life.
All my friends have commented on the change to my appearance (for the better)
I look forward to the daily sessions and have met some terrific like minded people.
 
CONCLUSION
 
If someone does not agree that you can change your entire life for the better by using diet and exercise then they need to give me a call.
I guess you could say I am walking proof.

Kind Regards

Peter Gibbs (Your ever shrinking client)

Our go to physiotherapists are Physiotherapy Solutions headed up by Justin Barich. They are a very competent team of therapists who have a sporting approach to treatment which means that they will get you up, moving and “back on the field” as soon as practically possible. The trainers from the West Perth Personal Training team are here learning about shin splints, muscle cramps, orthotics, minimalist running shoes and the pain threshold.

Lance Spice featured in the Western Outlook

Congratulations to Lance Spice for his feature story in the the Western Outlook, Leighton Contractors quarterly magazine, at the start of his health and fitness journey with Evolve Health. Lance started his training and diet plan on 5th September and has lost pretty close to 10 kg so far, more to come.

Diet Planning for Success

Energy balance (calories in versus calories consumed) and the nutritional content of food are your key benchmarks to eating healthy. If you follow these basic dietary guidelines and follow them consistently you will achieve the success you are seeking:

  • Eat plenty of fruit and vegetables. Go for a variety of colour and a variety of types of vegetables and fruit. Have a look at your meal before you eat it, how much colour do you see on your plate?
  • Minimise pre-packaged food. If it comes in a packet or a jar then it cannot be 100% fresh, and fresh is best. Needless to say this can be very hard to follow, but once again, look at your meals as a whole and determine how much is fresh or not.
  • If it‘s sweet then take note. Sweet means energy. Fruit is the exception here but even the quantity of high glucose fruit needs to be considered.
  • One gram of fat contains more than twice the number of calories than one gram of carbohydrates or protein. This means that fat is energy dense. Some fats are essential (most plant based fats), and some fat is bad (saturated and trans fats) so type of fat is important. Reduce your saturated fats and ensure you are getting your essential fatty acids.
  • Alcohol in its purest form has enough energy to fuel combustion but is completely empty from any nutritional value. Alcohol makes us feel good, it’s great socially but does nothing for us nutritionally and definitely needs to be kept to moderation.

At Evolve Health we work with 2 different Dieticians to ensure that our clients get the right level of dietetic support that they need (see “Team Evolve” on our website).For more information check out www.metabolicjumpstart.com but make sure you contact Evolve Health to register as you will receive the MJ+ program ($120/annum value) for free.
