Your first Personal Coaching session (or taster) is a two-part assessment

Part 1

Static Postural Assessment – starting from the foot up. Assessing any issues to be aware of and any possible action to be taken.

Gait Analysis – movement patterns and muscle alignment before exercising, using manipulation and possible massage.

Part 2

Introduction to the kettlebell and kettlebell training.

Heart Rate Monitoring.

The first session is designed to look at your readiness for exercising and safety, (part 1 takes 10 minutes to complete) providing there are no health or postural issues you will then move on to part 2. You will be given a heart rate monitor which uses the latest heart rate technology to measure your individual training effect.

Training criteria of subsequent sessions

All training is personalised to you on the day of your session. A training session lasts 30 minutes.  Starting with a training benchmark at the start of your session we assess your readiness for exercise and this will determine the intensity of the session governed by your starting heart rate and taking into account any lifestyle factors that may have an effect on your heart rate. The benchmark heart rates are 128 – 138, using a standard kettlebell exercise which takes 30 seconds to complete. This helps us to establish the intensity of your personal session.

As a beginner you will start with a light kettlebell and after every fifth session as your kettlebell technique improves you will move up by weight or reps (exercise repetitions) or both. This is because stamina and strength improve after four sessions of kettlebell training.

Your programme design will be based on your goals and needs, however you will never do the same programme twice. This is firstly in order to challenge your body without increasing the exercise load to exhaust you, and secondly to motivate you so you know it’s always going to be different and fun.
