Getting the results that clients need requires state-of-the-art testing equipment, including a machine that measures how your body burns fat most effectively (VO2 max), and a water immersion tank (hydrostatic body fat testing) that is the most accurate way to measure body fat and determine lean mass. We want to make sure that the weight that each person loses is pure body fat, not lean muscle mass. A thorough fitness assessment, taking into account injuries and health issues as well as body posture and alignment testing, is also necessary. From this information, each client’s program is developed by our highly knowledgeable staff, who determine how many grams of protein, carbohydrates, and fats the client should consume per meal, and what level and duration of activity is safe for them, while allowing for maximum results.
Because people come to camp in various degrees of fitness, different programs levels were created in order to meet the needs of each client. The levels accommodate a fitness range from ultra beginner to intermediate to professional athlete. This program structure helps clients to be continually challenged to reach new levels of fitness.
Clients meet one-on-one with our nutritionist each week, where she finds out all about their lifestyle at home, and determines what their individual needs are for continued success when they leave us. Whether they’re going over menus for restaurants, taking trips to the grocery store to learn how to shop for healthy food, or taking classes with our master chef to learn how to cook healthfully, each person has individual support to come up with a plan that works for them.
Because Eric knows the importance of the mental aspect of success, he teaches weekly motivational and coaching classes to help clients work on internal dialogue and behavior modification. It is essential for them to internalize multiple motivational tools to have continued success once they leave camp.
