HEALTH AND FITNESS ASSESSMENTS

Why do I need an assessment?

A key reason why Health-Core has been a leader in personal health and fitness services in Brisbane is our focus on tailoring our exercise sessions and services to each client's specific needs and goals. This tailoring is achieved through our initial comprehensive health and fitness evaluation.

Many people are concerned about having an assessment at the start of their exercise program because they feel they are not yet "fit enough!" However the assessment is not a pass or fail test, the various measures provide essential information on key aspects of you health that informs the design of your exercise program and the advice we provide to help you best achieve your goals.

The results can for example identify specific muscle stiffness that may have the potential to cause you injury, makes sure you will be training at the correct heart rate for maximum fitness and/or fat loss and ensures you get results by focusing on the priority health and fitness areas. The assessment also provides a baseline for monitoring your health improvement and providing feedback on the success of your program.

What will it involve?

The initial health and fitness assessment includes a review of your current health status including:

• Health and Fitness history including medical history
• Body composition - body fat levels and muscle balance
• Flexibility in the hips, legs, lower back and shoulders
• Posture
• Fitness / Endurance levels
• Eating habits
• Abdominal strength and stability

This assessment is usually conducted at one of our studios but can also be conducted in your home or office if required.

Health-Core works with other key health professionals as required, as part of your exercise program such as podiatrists, nutritionists, physiotherapists and general practitioners to ensure that your exercise is not only safe but effective.
