Evidence shows that people who combine regular physical activity with good nutrition are more successful at losing weight and keeping it off.  To get optimum results we recommend resistance training - working on all the major muscle groups, a minimum of twice a week. Resistance training enables your body to remodel and heal the tiny tears to muscle tissue, making it stronger.  

 

This helps in two ways:

 

• The more muscle you build, the more calories you’ll burn off each day

• The rebuilding process itself requires more energy, boosting your daily calorie burn by up to a further 10%

BFITB is a small independent Personal Training studio based in Stornoway, Isle of Lewis, run by my husband Ian and me.  We have both been Personal Trainers now for over 14 years. We use Power Plates to get more bang for your buck when it comes to resistance training.  Power Plates adopt the principles of acceleration training to stimulate the body’s natural response to vibration. These clever machines are ideal for strength and conditioning, shape change, as well as stretching, massage, and balance.

 

Waves of energy are transmitted and the muscles subconsciously contract – and it’s this rapid cycle of muscle contraction which makes the training so effective. Power Plate training can give you a full-body resistance training workout in less than 25 minutes – making it ideal for today’s busy lifestyles.
 
Our short, sharp HIIT workouts, incorporating squats, lunges, weights, balance boards, planks, resistance bands, TRX suspension, etc. have been scientifically proven to help you build lean muscle which burns off excess fat; and get toned as quickly and safely as possible. However, if you’re not into huge vibrators…you’ll still get a damn good workout – we just don’t switch the Plates on!

 

As it’s Personal Training, we gauge all sessions to our client’s level of fitness and ability – don’t forget, low Intensity works too!

 

 

 

Whatever you do – you NEED TO ENJOY IT!!
