Wagga gym Xcler8’s personal training will help you to get the most from your diet and exercise regime to help you take off the weight and keep it off. The biggest mistake you can make is following a rapid weight loss diet that helps you lose weight quickly but then “rebound” with a few extra kilos on top! These yo-yo diets not only fail but can be detrimental to your health.
If something continually fails, why keep doing it over and over? It’s time to let Xceler8 help you find a sustainable way to lose weight!
How Xceler8 sets you up for weight loss success!
Xceler8 Gym Wagga always keeps one eye on the cutting edge of health science. We offer all members the very best start with easy, non-invasive but vital testing to determine your ideal nutrition and exercise plan. Rather than a simplistic calculation based on height and weight, we take accurate scientic measurements of factors such as your oxygen/carbon dioxide exchange to determine the very best weight loss strategy for you. Testing includes:
- Resting Metabolic Heart Rate Test – Discover exactly what your daily calorie intake should be to lose weight or get fit. You’ll have a better roadmap to reach your weight loss goals.
- Spirometry Testing – Discover how efficiently your lungs function so you don’t overdo it but still set yourself challenging goals
- VO2 Max Testing – Discover how much oxygen you use when exercising – to establish ideal long term endurance and weight loss goals
- Sub-Max Testing – Learn exactly how your body burns fat most efficiently, so you get the maximum value from each work out – basically, your sub-max test will tell you where your aerobic and anaerobic fitness finishes and starts so you work smarter, not harder.
The Proven Weight Loss Formula
Did you know it takes around 7,500 excess calories to gain one kilogram. Conversely, it takes a 7,500 calorie deficient to shed a kilogram.
A combination of strength training, a cardio program and a high protein based eating plan is a great start but the most impressive, sustained weight losses are by those who embrace these life long habits:
- Realism. You won’t be a perfect size ten next month. But you might be 4 kilograms lighter, which might let you get back into your jeans and that will give you a little confidence boost! Most nutritionists recommend 0.5 – 1 kilogram weight loss per week. With a carefully created exercise régime you may be able to lose more.

- Persistence. It’s so easy to slip back into bad habits. Create healthy lifestyle habits that are achievable every day, not just for a few weeks.
- Recognise Stumbling Blocks. Create an environment that breaks your bad habits. For example, if you often buy take away food after a long day at work, consider cooking and freezing healthy meals in advance. You know which of your friends encourage you and help you and which tempt you into bad habits. Spend more time with the former and choose controlled environments with the latter! If you’re easily tempted into a few beers or a slice of cake, choose to meet your bad influence buddies for healthier activities, far from the pub or patisserie!
- You Time. Block out workout time on your calendar and change it for no-one. Losing weight is the most important thing you can do for yourself, it is not unreasonable to expect one hour a day to do it!
- Meal Planning. Plan meals in advance, use the plan to create a shopping list and don’t be tempted to buy outside the list. It’ll save you money and time in the long run!
- Support. Be open about your weight loss journey and choose some great friends to turn to when your motivation is low. A personal trainer can be your savior at a time like this, so build a network of people who understand and can help keep you motivated.
- Record. Don’t just use the scales, record your measurements and even your heart rate, blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Not only will this help you better understand what your body responds to, it’ll help you see the benefits of all that hard work! If you’re having trouble losing weight, record you food intake in a food diary, you might just notice a bad habit that was sneaking by unnoticed!
- Celebrate. When you drop a dress size, buy some new clothes! When you drop another ten kilograms, treat yourself to a new DVD. Celebrate all victories big or small with anything you desire, except your bad habits!
- Hydrate. Drinking water is the most basic habit you can take up for good health. It’s extremely important, for good health, better looks and more success on the gym floor.
- Slip, don’t fall. Give yourself a break. If you have a slip up, look at what triggered it and learn from it for next time – and then move on. A slip needn’t mean a fall.
