My Philosophy
At Heal-thy-Living, we believe that any fitness and nutrition package has to be practical for our clients to follow. In order to achieve this, we focus a lot on understanding the client’s lifestyle, likes and dislikes while designing the nutrition and fitness programme. We ensure that we provide sufficient variety in the food recommendations so that the client never feels bored with it.
We also believe that fitness consciousness has to come from within and cannot be prescriptive. Only then will it be sustainable and provide lifelong benefits. A substantial part of the engagement is spent on nutrition and fitness counselling as it is important for our clients to understand the reasons behind the suggested changes. We develop a good personal rapport with the clients and try to become their friend and confidante in all matters related to nutrition and fitness.
We strive to help them make the correct choices and habits in terms of food and fitness related matters. By weight loss we mean losing fat and not simply weight as it also includes lean mass and water. This changes the whole approach to weight management.
