The Longevity Treatment Cycle

Our Longevity Exercise Physiologists can help you with your treatment, prevention, and performance goals. Not only can our EPs assist in treating and managing chronic conditions and injuries, but we can also aid in the prevention of future diseases. More importantly, our Exercise Physiologists will ensure that all the improvements you make in the gym translate to real life. We can help you get back to doing what you love and ensure you have the capacity to do so for years to come..

What to Expect?

In your initial consultation, expect to be met at the respective gym entrance by one of our team members. After a quick tour around the gym, we will begin a thorough discussion into your medical history, exercise background and personal goals. Following this conversation, we’ll conduct a series strength and cardiovascular assessments to assess your current capacity. This will allow us to design a strategy that is specific to your current exercise capacity and goals.

After your initial consult, your Exercise Physiologist will check in with you to ensure you felt okay after your first session and confirm your strategy moving forward. This will allow your EP to prepare an appropriate exercise program for your first session.

• Each session will start with a comprehensive warm up including specific static and dynamic stretching, mobility and a cardiovascular element.
• Following this, your Exercise Physiologist or Exercise Scientist will take you through one of our many cardiovascular protocols which aim to challenge, and assess your aerobic and anaerobic fitness.
• Every session will also include a variety of strengthening exercises, aiming at progressively overloading your muscles in a safe and effective manner.
• Depending on your goals, our team can also monitor your body composition, physiological measurements such as blood pressure, and structure your exercise every week!
