FITNESS ASSESSMENT
Consultations & Assessments
Clients provide fitness goals after which a lifestyle and nutritional assessment is performed. The main purpose is to determine your current physical condition warrants medical attention or alternative therapies. The fitness assessment is measured on the consultation results as well as the personal medical information, health history, and physical criteria.
Nutritional Counseling
Proper nutrition is critical to reaching your goals and improving your health. Without adhering to a healthy diet, your exercise program will not be as effective. TopShape uses sound nutritional guidelines based on "Precision Nutrition" designed by Dr. John Berardi PhD who is one of the world’s foremost nutritionist's.
Fitness Testing & Programs
An extensive fitness test is performed to analyze the client's current physical condition. Comparisons are given at pre-decided intervals or milestones. Testing includes caliper measurements, postural analysis, flexibility, cardiovascular fitness, physical strength, power, endurance, and range of motion. TopShape also measures pro hormone levels, to give you a clear picture of how your hormonal system is functioning.
Advanced Nutrition
TopShape’s nutrition coaching program is successful because we have a superior system when compared to the other nutrition programs. It’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. We use an individualized approach to nutrition programming which leads to long term transformations. We are Precision Nutrition, Certified Nutrition Coaches. Exercise alone as diet alone will not work. To be blunt, most people do not exercise often enough or diet correctly to illicit change. Can we actually change your shape? The answer is YES!
Through the most comprehensive assessment in the fitness industry, we focus on body composition related outcomes such as fat loss and muscle gains. While other weight management programs will help you lose short term weight (mostly muscle and water)! Our coaching system is successful because we actually boost your metabolism, not suppress it.
Specialized Programs
Everyone has different abilities, fitness needs and goals. This is why no program found in a magazine or video can yield the best results for you. Programs that are too generalized have no way of adjusting for past injuries, medications or for your exercise and activity background.
Adapted Fitness
The number of seniors and people with disabilities in Ontario is increasing every day. Statistics Canada estimates that 16 percent (1.6 million) of Ontario's population is made up of people with some form of impairment. Currently 44 percent of those aged 65 and over have a mobility impairment of some sort.
This population is among the people that TopShape tries to reach. "We get tremendous satisfaction in providing quality service to our clients," Morel says. "Our programs are tailored to the client and his or her capabilities. We don't believe in a universal approach to individual wellness."
TopShape's clientele reflects the varied needs of people in Ontario, and includes corporate executives, seniors, world-class athletes and people with disabilities."We have always viewed servicing a diverse clientele as a business necessity." says Morel. "This has helped us build a company that is sensitive to the untapped markets that exist in Ontario."
"Investing in health by providing physical fitness and wellness opportunities is not an option but a necessity. Providing physical fitness and wellness opportunities to persons with physical disabilities is not a privilege but a right."
