FLOWIN ( www.flowin.com ) The FLOWIN® Concept came to life among a group of elite decathletes with an extensive history and competence within the fields of medicine, top level athlete training and healthcare. In 2006, after some years of planning and development. The FLOWIN® Concept consists of a functional exercise targeting stability, mobility, strength, balance, speed, and power.

The FLOWIN® Concept allows you to exercise the entire body at the difficulty level of your choice. It is, simply put, an exercise form that works with you and for you.

STRIDING. ( www.stridingsystem.com )
Striding® is a new and super effective training program performed on a revolutionary Eco-friendly and space efficient non-motorised treadmill. Therefore, there is no need for electrical energy for the treadmill to work, only energy generated by human kinetic movement.
Striding® is a 50 minute indoor group lesson which simulates a strident hike through gently sloping terrain, varying stride pace and stride length according to the musical tempo chosen for each section of the lesson. Rain, hail or shine, Striding® is performed in a safe and controlled environment. Classes are conducted by trained Striding® professionals, all experts in designing lessons for a cross section of the community; from professional athletes to rehabilitation patients and everyone in between.

Total Gym allows a full, free range of motion of the joints, and builds body strength by working major muscle groups together in concert with the core stabilizers of the abdomen and back.

METABOLIC EFFECT (this is a revolutionary activity that I strongly recommend to include) It is a 30 min class requiring only a couple of dumbells and a mat per person. ( www.metaboliceffect.com ) This certification has a cost per trainer of 249 $ (American Dollars) which must be paid online through the Metabolic Effect web site. A revolutionary activity which is called to be one of the most successful activities in the international fitness industry. Metabolic Effect is a next-generation fitness and wellness company focused on hormonal metabolism. ME offers workouts, education, and other services to teach the new “fat-loss lifestyle” and restore metabolic function in a way that is tailored to the individual, hence our acronym ME. Our team has close to 100 years collective experience in the health and fitness industry, and includes holistic physicians, clinical nutritionists, wellness coaches, conditioning specialists, and personal trainers. We understand what it takes to make meaningful and lasting change from the inside out. The Science behind the Metabolic Effect (ME) incorporates the latest understanding in endocrinology, health, fitness, strength and conditioning research. ME is a science-based program focused on changing the fat-burning hormonal response to exercise and diet. By changing hormones, rather than simply eating less or exercising more, the body naturally regulates fat burning, appetite, and mood so that motivation for exercise is enhanced while cravings for food are reduced.
The latest in exercise research says that intensity (how hard you exercise) may be as important, and perhaps more effective, than duration (how long you exercise) . This is good news for those who are starved for time. Longer more traditional forms of exercise, like running or jogging, burn calories during exercise, but can negatively impact key hormones responsible for calorie use at rest. Smart exercise uses short, focused bouts of exercise focused on weight training and intervals to “turn on” fat burning hormones. Research shows these techniques increase fat usage for hours and even days after the activity has stopped and outperform “aerobic zone” exercises like running.This is what we refer to as the metabolic “ripple” effect.
This new hormonal approach has other advantages. Traditional forms of exercise, such as moderate intensity aerobic exercise (i.e., jogging, biking, running, or swimming) can negatively alter hunger and stress hormones. This leads to increased appetite and cravings for sugary, fatty, and/or salty foods. More intelligent exercise using the approaches described above creates positive changes in hormones and naturally regulates food intake.
