We have acquired 11 sets of Tanita body fat scales.   “What’s this and why would I care? I hear you think…..!”

These are the type of scales that we and large national gym’s use in their business to do their health assessments and to track weight loss and body fat progress. If you’re into your weight loss or health and fitness they are a very important tool to keep you focused on your fat loss goal.

Track progress, write your own diet plans

We use them to track progress, write diet plans and gain critical health information about our client health status and weight loss progress.

Understand your body Fat %

These scales will enable you to track your weight, (yes i know Keith, i don’t know if you’ve noticed but any scales will do that!), they will measure the % of your body that’s fat and the % that’s muscle. This is far more important than knowing how much you weigh as lean tissue weight’s 3 times as much as fat! If your training hard this will enable you to track the changes in body composition. This is very important as some people do not lose weight when training but they do change shape and change body composition.

You can also get fat % readings for individual parts of your body such as your right leg, left arms or torso.

Discover the amount of fat stored around you organs and therefore your health risk!

Visceral fat is the fat that is stored around your organs and therefore directly relates to your health. If you score highly here you know you need to take some action to improve your health!

Would you like to know how many calories you should consume a day? These scales will give you an estimate helping you to formulate a diet plan to suit your needs!

Bone and Water %

These scales will also give you bone %’s and hydration % give you the tools you need to make the right health decisions.

They are quick and easy to use… they need to be, you try retesting all the boot-campers on the last Sunday of each month! They have got to work fast.

Do not worry if you are not technically minded as they have a comprehensive instruction manual and I use them every day! For me to use something electrical it’s needs to be idiot proof, you just ask Clare what I’m like with technology!

When I brought these scale I paid £179.99 and if you buy them from John Lewis, Tanita, this is what you would pay. We have pick up 11 sets for Only £125.

Do you want a £55 discount?

Even if you wait for the January sales you’ll not get them at £55 off the RRP.

So who’s in?

• Would your weight loss be easier if you had a professional tool to help you?
• Is it time you used a professional tool to help you set your goals realistically?

For my first post I thought that I would tell you a little about myself and the differences between Personal Trainers.

The Fitness Industry is a fantastic industry so many different approaches and so many avenues to go down. In this article I (Amy Black), am going to be talking about my journey to Absolute Training and the difference between Personal Trainers and Renter Friends. These are two completely different things as i will explain, as well as give you a little backround knowledge on myself.

As some of you may know i have just started working with Absolute Training, very different to what I was used to. Do I like it or prefer it? Well you’ll just have to wait and see……!!

I left school at 16 which did get frowned upon slightly by friends but of course I just wanted to earn money so I got a job as a leisure assistant at the Oxford Belfry hotel cleaning the gym and working on reception. I had a lot of fun to and also got qualified as an NVQ level 2 fitness instructor and that’s where the journey begins.

I left to work in Cannons now Nuffield Health. It was like a dream a massive gym and a 20 metre pool, classes, inductions, health assessments loads to do.

Well for the first few months.

Then it was standing on the gym floor for about seven hours a day cleaning. Have you ever walked into a gym and seen fitness instructers look like anywhere else would be better than where they are now?

Well that’s how i felt. I went on to my level 3 in advanced training to allow me to do Personal Training. I had been there a year and started to build a client base but things weren’t making any sense to me. On my course we got told machines are rubbish leisure centres aren’t doing the right job, trainers don’t train people properly. My head was just in a whirl wind I’m being told so many different things. I was looking around and was seeing clients achieve nothing although they had been with there trainer for two or three years.

Is that possible?

Trainers were taking their clients from machine to machine each week counting to 15. In my head I was thinking ‘surely this cant be my future job’ ‘Do I want to do this’. The answer was NO!!

Yet another Health assessment to do ‘GREAT’ but little did I know this was the health assessment that would change my future. I had the Clare that we all no and love.

 As two normal girls we got chatting about the industry and hormonal issues, from that health assessment I met Keith. I got to know him more when I attended the Personal Nutrition Course where I learnt heaps and felt so positive about life in general.

WOW food has a massive impact on our lives, something I’m sure I’ll be writing about in the future.

We got chatting and then the next thing i know I’m looking after his clients for a week while he is in America.

I have to admit there were times when I freaked and didn’t want to do it or felt I couldn’t but I just took a deep breath and got on with it this then led me to working with Keith and Clare, becoming part of the Absolute Training Team.

‘I’ll be ok I’ve done Personal Training before,’ or so i thought.

But in actual fact i had been a renter friend not really taking an interest in there posture or lifestyle I was there to talk to them have a laugh and watch them exercise.

Now I have people with injuries, stress issues, poor posture and muscle imbalances. Gone are the days where I ignored that, it has to be dealt with to get any results. AHHHHHHHHH it can be a complicated nightmare!

More days come where I thought I can’t do this im out of my depth. But by watching Keith listening and learning and discussion I have built on the solid foundation of my qualifications, so much information so fast!  

The early mornings are hard although I am getting there. We are working with real people not lycra gym bunnies, people with real worries and injuries. I have learnt that you need to start with the inside before the outside gets focused on.

Building real relationships with the clients working together to help build a better quality of life. That is why I can get quite tiered because you build a relationship with that person and you can go away still thinking of ways to help them. No client is ever forgotten about.

So The Differences between a Personal Trainer and a Renter Friend:

# Renter friends think its all about the exercise.

# Personal trainers build a relationship and coach’s people with all aspects that affect health.

# Your health and your results is the most important thing for a Personal Trainer

# Renter friends have lots of machines

# Personal Training is not ‘JUST A JOB’ we have a passion to making you feel fantastic inside and out.

The answer to which one do I prefer…..

Well a renter friend is a whole lot easier but who wants easy, so of course there is no doubt it is working with Absolute training being a Personal Trainer!!!

Hope to see you soon
