Rob Woollen Personal Training Manchester &UK

We recommend that your first session with an RWPT personal trainer consists of a series of anatomical measurements and the use of appropriate fitness testing protocols to give a baseline to measure improvements against. The actual assessments carried out will be decided by the personal trainer taking into account your profile but may consist of: -

• Body Mass Index
• Body Fat percentage (can be carrried out with the state-of-the-art Bodystat 1500 machine)
• Sit up test (abdominal strength and endurance)
• Sit and reach (flexibility)
• Blood pressure
• Aerobic fitness
• Lung function

In general, we like to carry out assessments around every six to eight weeks depending on your programme and circumstances. Fitness testing is the ideal way to set measurable goals for your personal training sessions.
