Fitness Assessments at Personal Best

“Great Information! NOW WHAT ... SPECIFICALLY ... DO I DO NEXT?”

This is the question that unfortunately goes unanswered after far too many fitness assessments. You ... the consumer ... have a professional, color, bound report with your name on it and no real plan for implementing what should be the most important component of a fitness assessment.

“Personal Best @ Denver West” Fitness Assessments.
What the tests are. What the tests are not.

1. Tests are administered by a personal fitness training professional. We are the National Personal Training Institute ... we train the trainers. We employ over 100+ years of combined talent and education ... in personal fitness training. See our staff on our website, www.NPTIColorado.com.

2. We apply our knowledge and skills to assess your physical “current state” and as needed to construct a plan to reach your desired “future state”. We provide a plan with crystal clear goals and measurements answering the question:

“Are we making progress in reaching our intended goal? If not, are we taking the necessary corrective measures?”

3. We are not clinically oriented. We are not here to address issues more appropriately answered by a medical professional. We will coordinate with your chosen medical professional and implement prescribed / monitored corrective measures (within our area of expertise). For example, we will collaborate with your physical therapist to implement a prescribed set of exercises required for your rehabilitation.

4. Schedule a comprehensive fitness assessments and let us design a customized personal training program in these areas:

:: Cardiovascular fitness
:: Muscular fitness
:: Body weight / Body Composition
:: Posture Assessment
:: Nutritional Advice (we are not dieticians)
:: Flexibility

Body Gem - Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR)
($79.00 standalone / both “before” and “after” tests included with a 3-month or 6-month personal training package and your annual fitness center membership)

What is a metabolic measurement? ... or “RMR” tells you how many calories your body burns in a day.

:: Lean muscle mass burns 200% - 400% more calories than fat mass
:: Muscle mass occupies 30% less space ... 30% less of your clothes!

Metabolism changes as overall composition changes ... in other words ... decrease body fat and increase lean muscle mass and your metabolism increases.

So what if I know my RMR?
:: Knowing your RMR will allow you to establish a “calorie budget” for your body
:: Knowing your RMR as you implement a personal training plan will give you quantifiable data to guide you through increases / decreases of relative caloric intake, types of foods, aerobic training, strength training, rest and relaxation.

We can enable you and automate you further using the BalanceLog software tool. Quite simply, BalanceLog software (which will run on your computer, your PDA, or even through a web enabled Internet connection):

:: Works with any diet program or goal whether you want to lose weight, gain weight ... BalanceLog will monitor your nutrition and fitness: calories in, calories out, as well as protein, carbohydrates, saturated fats, cholesterol, fiber, sodium, and more!

:: Provides access to thousands of foods, exercises, restaurants, and personal menus

Tri Fit Fitness Assessment
($99.00 standalone / both “before” and “after” tests included with a 3-month or 6-month personal training package and your annual fitness center membership)

The end result of a TriFit Fitness Assessment is a printed report detailing your “current state” (your current physical condition) with a clear direction down the path to your desired “future state” (the physical condition you would like to achieve).

This “total body” computerized assessment uses both “real time” data taken by the TriFit system (e.g. body composition using a skin fold technique) and data provided by you or your doctor (e.g. blood chemistries, cholesterol level, and family history such as cancer, problem pregnancy, heart disease etc).
