Personal Health and Fitness Coaching is a comprehensive service designed to guide individuals on their journey toward achieving specific health and fitness goals while simultaneously enhancing their overall well-being.
Well-being by definition (oxford dictionary) is ‘the state of being comfortable, healthy and happy’ well-being is the measuring stick we use to define our health, but what this looks like or means in daily practice can vary from person to person.
We all have the same well-being needs to be met according the Psychologist Abraham Maslow as shown in Maslow’s hierarchy of needs, but how we meet them differs from person to person, which is what makes us unique.
Some people need sleep more than others, some people will benefit from meditation whilst others will never get along with it. This is why we coach using guides don’t in stone a rigid plan. Our coaches will assess your current situation and have a conversation with you about the goals you have. These can be as simple as wanting to lose a little bit of body fat and gain some muscle tone, to changing significant habits to support health for well-being, through to optimising as much as possible your health and fitness routine to achieve sports/fitness specific goals. Before booking your first session consider the following;
What goals do you have?
What help do you want?
What is within your budget and sustainable for a realistic amount of time?
Our clients with basic requirements around health and fitness coaching typically stay with us for approx 18-months- that would be your budget scope, sessions are ad-hoc there is no commitment needed. Your time with us will help you to curate the knowledge and experience you need to confidently move forward alone.
If your goals become more specialised we could support you transitioning to Personal Training with Trainers who are specialists in sports rather than trainers who typically just know the gym. Sports or type specific training varies from standard gym work.
If having a personal coach is way of target for you- the guides we use: Food Made Easy - Exercise for Beginners and The Well-being Toolkit are available to buy from our shop- they are very easy to use to support you on coaching yourself through the basics.
