WEIGHTLOSS FOR BEGINNERS

LONG TERM WEIGHT LOSS FOR BEGINNERS

What if we told you that losing body fat and getting in shape doesn’t have to be overly complex and frustrating?

How would you feel in 12 months time if you had totally transformed your physique, reset your relationship with food and felt more confident than ever before?

How would your clothes fit?

How would your body feel?

Picture yourself waking up each day feeling in-shape, powerful and confident.

GETTING STARTED ALONE CAN BE DIFFICULT

Have you ever started a diet, or tried to eat more healthily but felt like you were getting nowhere, or losing your energy and feeling like you need to give up because nothing changed for the better?  Or perhaps you started working out but felt out of place and lost in the gym, or lost motivation to keep doing boring cardio.

You don’t have to feel lost, fat loss can be confusing and frustrating, with so much diverse, contradictory and even just plain wrong information online. And like most people you probably have no idea how to get started. But I’ll be honest with you anyone can lose significant, life-changing amounts of weight.

HOW ATP PERSONAL TRAINERS CAN HELP YOU LOSE WEIGHT FOR LIFE

At ATP we have decades of experience working alongside beginner (and advanced!) clients and supporting them in their fat loss journey.

Our methods are proven and our systems work, built on strong scientific foundations and refined according to what we know has worked in practice.  

This is not a one-size fits all program, this is a plan that will evolve with you as your body changes.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

  • We will create a workout program based on your ability, the amount of time you can commit and your willingness to exercise.  
  • We will expect you to come to our gym once a week for an in-gym workout and we’ll help you commit to an exercise program to do at home or at your preferred gym the rest of the week.  

  • Along with your workouts we will create a diet plan specifically for you and work with you to make sure you can and do commit to it. We will update your workouts and diets weekly or as often as you need in order to keep you progressing.  

  • The results won’t be as fast as training more frequently but you’ll benefit from the same accountability that all of our clients enjoy. You’ll receive the same support, and the confidence that you’re on the right path

RESULTS

WHAT YOUR PROGRAM WILL CONSIST OF:

  • Once a week workout and consultation with your trainer in the gym.
  • Regularly updated workouts to do 2-4 times per week depending on the facilities you have access to.
  • We will encourage and help you to stay on track even when you are not in the gym.
  • Diet advice in-person, by email and on Whatsapp for when you need help quickly.
  • We will be there to support you and help you stick with what you’ve committed to.
  • You will see consistent weight loss from week to week.
  • We will document your fat loss with (private) photos and measurements.

CHANGE FOR LIFE

Losing weight isn’t the pinnacle of what you can achieve, it’s merely the foundation.

You’ll continuously build on this foundation learning to enjoy your new healthier lifestyle, and you’ll cement these changes.

Your achievement will benefit every area of your life: you’ll feel better, you’ll manage stress more robustly, you’ll sleep better and you’ll be more energised both at work and in your relationships.

FAQ

  1. Other commercial gyms are focussed on session numbers and hitting sales targets and personal training is an afterthought product layered onto their gym membership model. Personal Training gyms are either exlcusively focussed on short term, unsustainable transformations or waste their clients time and energy with a rent a friend service.
  2. We do things a little differently. Our gyms are exclusive personal training facilities; all of our coaches work 1 on 1 with their clients. This allows for a remarkably efficient training experience, your entire training session will be tailored to maximise results based around your specific needs.
  3. Unlike other gyms we offer support, feedback and coaching outside of the gym.
  4. Other gyms only focus on training, and sometimes nutrition. We offer a complete service including lifestyle, diet and your non-gym activity.
  5. Other gyms treat their clients like the product, driving them towards photos shoots in a set time period. We place your needs above the needs of our marketing department. We care deeply about the sustainability of the changes that you make.

Every client’s plan of action will be unique. Your D.N.A. (Daily Routine, Nutrition and Activity) plan will be unique – this is not a generic, templated plan.

You will be assigned a dedicated coach. Your coach will take the time to understand you , your history, your goals and motivations to help you to build a customised plan and tailor the long term strategy accordingly.

Your coach will review your progress and measurements and provide clear feedback and advice, as well as act a a strategic advisor to help you make adjustments to your plan as you progress.

Everyone can achieve dramatic results and experience an amazing personal transformation. Your personal coach will tailor the starting level of intensity based around the initial consultation and assessment workout. This will ensure that you are always working towards the edge of your current capacity but not beyond it which would invite sloppy technique, loose form and potential injury. Some of our most dramatic transformations have come from clients who had little to no experience with training and nutrition prior to starting with ATP Personal Training. We’re there alongside you for the entire process and will ensure that you’re properly able to execute on our advice.

Our coaches will ensure that you are ramped up towards exercising intensely over the course of your first week or weeks with us. We take pride in applying the appropriate dose of exercise to match our clients’ existing capacity, there is no benefit to training far beyond your current capacity. In fact, this type of approach will actually be less efficient, place an enormous recovery cost on the body and potentially compromise your structural integrity.

We track bodyweight, body fat percentage and girth measurements to give us a wide array of progress markers.

For most clients as they start the transformation process Weight loss on the scale is a good indicator of progress and you can expect to lose between 0.5kg to 1.0 kg each week. During the early stages this number can be even higher as the body responds to the new program and becomes rapidly less inflamed.
