Lose weight, or manage your weight with PT Health Solutions

The first stage in effective weight management is understanding. If you don’t understand why you have weight issues, how can you possibly correct the problem? Excess stress equals excess fat, so it is vital to identify the cause of any stress, - and that means assessment. At PT Health we start by assessing 28 body systems in order to get a clear picture of your stress and its effect on your body.

Next, we identify your nutritional needs, starting with your metabolic type. Almost all diet plans, fail to take into account the fact that everyone has a different metabolism and, therefore, different nutritional requirements. The right nutritional balance for one person may cause another to actually gain fat. What is food for one can quite literally be poison to another. If you ever wondered why the Atkins diet worked well for some but failed miserably for others, the reason is – metabolic type. If you don’t know your metabolic type, any nutrition plan is purely guess work.

Once your metabolic type has been identified, we then assess the possibility of food intolerances and unknown allergies, as well as fungal and parasite infections which, if left unchecked, lead to digestive dysfunction and immune problems. If you suffer constantly from bloating or colds and sniffles, you are probably eating something you shouldn’t be.

Finally,in addition to your personalised nutrition plan, we provide an exercise programme that will relieve stress,reduce body fat, as well as ncrease energy levels and vitality. Most exercise plans are totally generic, designed for the “average” person. The reason they don’t work for you is that they were not designed for you. At PT Health, a specialist will provide you with an exercise programme that is based on your specific anatomical needs and capabilities. Progressive, planned workout schedules combined with concise coaching and education, will ensure that you get the results you want,

Whatever your weight issues, PT Health will provide a tailored solution for you. Call the PT-Health Studio's on 0113 247 1174

• Drink at least 2 litres of good quality water per day.

• Eat more leafy green vegetables, as opposed to below the ground vegetables.

• Cut out all bread (even wholemeal), pasta, cereal and wheat based products. In our experience, these foods are the number one cause of excess weight and body fat.

• Reduce intake of caffeine, alcohol and dairy.

• Do more physical activity in your daily routine. Walk to work and up stairs when possible. Park farther from entrances. Walk the dog for an extra 20 minutes. These kinds of habitual changes will have a much greater benefit than the odd visit to the gym

• Eat protein at every meal. If you don’t eat protein, you can not build muscle. If you can not build muscle, or burn fat.

• If you cannot pronounce any of the ingredients in a food -or if it was not here 10,000 years ago – or If it is advertised on television – DO NOT EAT IT

• Take time out to de-stress. Excess stress makes you fat, so find something that truly relaxes you and pamper yourself.
