Weight Loss

Many people turn to personal trainers to assist with their weight loss goals. Daily activity and a healthy diet is the basis of a vibrant lifestyle and an ideal body composition. Personal trainers at Equilibrium are trained in using the Optimum Performance Training Model™ designed by the National Academy of Sport Medicine. Using these guidelines and combining them with your personal needs, our trainers create a gradual, step-by-step, healthy weight loss program that will be customized to your reality and that will be achievable for YOU. It all starts by recognizing and acknowledging where you are at! By focusing on enjoying physical activity and establishing healthy eating habits, you will reach and maintain your weight loss goals and become pro-active in taking charge of your own personal health and well-being.

At Equilibrium, we add a unique dimension to your weight loss goals by incorporating outdoor activities. We will encourage you to discover new outdoor activities and build them into your new program, facilitating the development of a passion for new, inspiring activities that will ultimately help you to maintain your ideal activity levels, healthy body weight and make the journey a lot more pleasant than a single focus on the scale!

Exercising outdoors (should this be your preference) will not only keep you motivated and interested in exercise, it will also place demands on your body that indoor exercising will not, burning more calories as a result. Key demands that will make your body burn more calories outdoors include:

• Having to constantly adjust to uneven, ever-changing terrains (sand or rock beaches, woodchip trails, pavements, inclines, declines...).
• Having to fight the elements and keep warm on sometimes cooler days will require of your body to put forth a greater effort.
