Goal Management

The majority of the population want to either lose or gain ‘weight’ - When in reality they more than likely need a combination of both.

We work closely with you to set small obtainable goals (with rewards), that before you know it have become massive movements towards your big picture

Goals can include:

  • Body Composition Improvement

  • Strength/Power Development

  • Increase lean body mass (hypertrophy)

  • Develop movement capabilities & capacity

  • Reducing injury risk / asymmetries

  • Sport Specific Strength & Conditioning

  • Energy Management

Event Preparation:

  • Bride / Groom Wedding Preparation

  • Spartan Race / Tough Mudder Race Preparation

  • 5k / 10k / Half / Full Marathon Preparation

  • Triathlon Preparation

  • Sport Specific Preparation

  • Fitness Model / Bodybuilding Preparation

Nutrition

When creating and assigning nutritional plans, MWP uses the processes and methods that have been scientifically and practically examined by Precision Nutrition.

The information that we provide you is wholly individual to you and your journey, and is fluid as we move through the process and you meet your goals.

The old saying “you can’t out-train a bad diet” is true for the most part. By remaining consistent, and having a plan that you can both enjoy and is in line with your goals allows consistency and sustained results over time.

No food or food groups are banned or frowned upon; restricted diets are not great for long periods of time. We want to teach you how to make better decisions, the macro-nutrient value of different foods and how to add/subtract these values to achieve your goals. Everything is OK in moderation (even a glass of red wine every now and then).

Training

All MWP training plans use methodologies that have been both scientifically and practically investigated. When we put together your training plan, we take into account the following parameters:

  • Training Age/Experience

  • Favorite activities/exercises/conditioning

  • Injuries/Limitations

  • Training Time

  • Facilities available

When these have been considered we use simple steps to achieve progressive overload and tax the correct energy systems to achieve the desired adaptation.

Daily Activity - The other 23

This is the make or break piece of the fitness puzzle. Usually, fitness goals can be met by increasing your daily activity (TDEE), maintaining either a calorie surplus / deficit and implementing effective training techniques; the energy balance equation:

Weight Gain (Calorie Surplus) = Calories Consumed > Calories Expended

Weight Loss (Calorie Deficit) = Calories Consumed < Calories Expended

Monitoring your activity during the 23 hours that you aren’t training allows us to make more accurate decisions on where to take your nutritional targets (calories/macros) and makes achieving your goals more efficient. This might sound invasive, but it is as simple as wearing a watch like device on your wrist.

It is not in the best interest of longevity and compliance to hammer long periods of conditioning on top of low calories. By understanding what is happening in the 23 hours that you are not training with us, we can make small adjustments to your current lifestyle to make sure that your targeted intake is met.

Education

What constitutes a good warm up?

Why am I chronically ‘tight’?

How do I fix my lower back pain?

How do I write my own strength & conditioning program?

How can I reach my goals?

  • Being a MWP member not only gives you the tools to be successful, but we also work on educating you to be your own personal trainer over time.

  • If we can’t answer one of your questions we will work diligently until we have the answer.

  • If you have an injury, or limitation we will program around these factors making sure that you can still achieve your goals without causing additional pain or discomfort. Hopefully removing all pain through the use of mobility/stability/flexibility exercises, aerobic conditioning and soft tissue preparation.


Technology

By combining the art, science and technology we are able to increase accountability and streamline the online coaching process. All applications are available on both iOS (Apple) and Android platforms.

There are no extra costs to use these applications. In order to get the full benefit, it is recommended that a Polar Heart Rate watch/strap combination are purchased.

Polar Flow, when coupled with a Polar wrist device will allow syncing of your daily activity with both MyFitnessPal and the MWP application.

  • Track all daily activity objectively - so you can accurately measure your output

  • Measure sleep quality and duration - a factor in body composition changes

  • Accurately measure the caloric expenditure of training sessions to remove guess work

MyFitnessPal

This application will be your go to when recording what food you are consuming, a digital food diary.
