Week # 1: Exercise/Diet
The human body is designed for movement. In today's computer-oriented society, however, our bodies rarely get the activity we need to meet the physical requirements necessary for our optimal well-being. This lack of action can create a stagnation that not only affects the body's vitality, but drains mental and emotional energies as well. If a body at rest tends to stay at rest, everything else stays still too.
With the understanding that movement is fundamental to positive growth, the Training Program begins with exercise. By improving physical health, the momentum forward begins -- and all areas of life quickly follow.
In Week # 1 of the Training Program you will:
- Boost your mood, self-confidence and health with an overall fitness and diet plan that works based on your individual schedule and needs.
- Enhance your physical performance with an exercise program we create together that addresses your specific body chemistry and current level of activity (from none at all to competition levels).
- Maximize your workouts with personal training techniques developed to achieve the greatest results for your efforts.
- See how your dietary choices affect your physical, mental and emotional well-being, and develop a diet specific to you that can improve each of these areas.
