This is to know the health state of your body at the beginning of the course. Results of the tests/measurements are then used by medical doctors, registered dietitians, nurse and physical trainers to create diet/exercise programs that are customised for each individual. Customised program will be so that it will be the easiest steps to achieve your goal and will also enable you to adhere to most easily. These specialists will give you full support all the way throughout the course. The program will consist of seminars, personal consultations, cooking classes, discussions and exercise classes.
