Results

The true story of how you’re currently shaping up

Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)

Minimum level of calories (energy) your body needs to function effectively. The body uses about 70% of the calories you consume to run all your major organs and functions such as the nervous, respiratory and circulatory making this number quite important.

Basal Metabolic Score

This identifies your body’s ability to burn the fuel you take on board on a daily basis

Muscle Score

Show the amount of muscle in the body

Visceral Fat Rating

Visceral fat is the fat that sits around your vital organs, in your internal abdominal cavity and generally increases with age. Having low VFR is believed to reduce the risk of diseases such as heart disease, blood pressure and the onset of Type 2 Diabetes.

Degree of Obesity

The percentage you are away from your ideal weight, as calculated for your BMI

Metabolic Age

Benchmarking from your BMR, the machine identifies the most common age of person with your stats. If it’s higher than your actual age increased exercise will build healthy muscle tissue and reduce your age.

Turning data into success

In just 30 seconds you'll have more data about yourself than you ever knew possible so the next question is what do you do with your results? It's great having all this information but unless you know what to do with it is just information.

Focusing your training

The body map will show you exactly where things like fat are higher or muscle is lower. Using this information you can select the exercise programme specific to you in order to meet your goals. Remember, you can speak to a member of our Fitness Team to book in for a individualised exercise programme at any time.

So now you know what areas to focus on and what need to reduce or increase it's time to set yourself some goals.

Goals

Setting yourself realistic goals will start to give your training focus. Boditrax goal setting provides a multi diamentional opportunity to target many different elements. It's important to remember this is about improving your whole health so your goals might be to increase some measures while reduce others but don't worry, if you're not sure where to start our Fitness Instructors and Personal Trainers are on hand to help. 

Tracking

So having goals is great but being able to track that you're heading in the right direction is what's going to give you the motivation to carry on. Week by week, as you get your readings the system will plot them against your previous readings.
