Unfortunately most gyms, diets and exercise programs fail. At Educogym® we use a proven system for results. To ensure you maximise the benefits of our system, we have included 10 vital features to ensure your success. These steps combine to create the unique educogym experience.

Focus on nutrition as well as fitness, we personalise your nutrition program and help adapt it to your lifestyle.

Whether it’s a low-fat, low-carb or low-glycemic diet, your nutritionist will guide you on the best nutritional programme to suit your eating habits whilst also helping you to achieve your
goals. Our nutritionists will work closely with you to offer the safest and healthiest nutritional advice for your individual requirements. They are always available during gym hours to help you with your nutrition, check your progress, to give you tasty recipes or simply to answer any questions that you might have about our programmes.

One reason for the successful results at Educogym® is the high level of intensity. This means being able to train without rest for up to 20 minutes.

We have a specialised machine called the “Time Machine” that allows you to save time whilst getting a high level of intensity workout in just 20 minutes. This is not possible in a normal gym as 50% of the time is wasted going from one machine to another and waiting for it to become available. That’s why it is necessary to have a specialised machine that allows you to save time.

SCIENTIFICALLY ADVANCED. ONLY 20 INVIGORATING MINUTES

If you have read the science behind the Educogym® you will understand the importance of maintaining or increasing muscle. It makes sense that exercise is a part of this system to activate the muscles in the body. However, you may not know that many types of exercise can be catabolic – i.e. they causes muscle loss.

OLD SCHOOL

The old school of thought is that the only reason you exercise is to burn calories. This has spawned the whole movement of aerobics and cardio equipment, ranging from treadmills to bikes and cross trainers to elliptical machines. If you visit most gyms, you will see rows and rows of these machines in a warehouse-like enclosing. It would seem that everyone is training to be a marathon runner.
Unfortunately, although you burn calories during this exercise, the loss of muscle will decrease your overall metabolic rate and your ability to burn calories. This means you’ll have to exercise more and more all the time. The problem with this approach is that the longer you exercise, the more catabolic it becomes (i.e. the more muscle you lose). This is because excess exercise is a stress on the body which in turn produces a stress hormone called cortisol.

A NEW REVOLUTION IN EXERCISE

The positive effects of exercise are the stimulation of the muscle fibers and the activation of the fat burning, muscle gaining hormone called ‘growth hormone’ (GH). These are directly impacted by the level of intensity of the exercise. Intensity is comprised of the load (weight) and speed of the program. In a normal warehouse type gym, this may not be possible because of the time wasted moving between exercises and waiting for equipment. The result and understanding from this research, lead us to produce an intensive exercise program which activates as many muscle fibres in the shortest amount of time. This in turn resulted in the development of a new machine and a program that involves only a 20 minute workout. (see Time Machine)

A FEEL-GOOD EXPERIENCE

There are many reasons why it is so easy to make the Educogym® system part of your lifestyle. Firstly it only takes 20 minutes, a few times a week; therefore it is much easier to stay focused and avoid boredom. Secondly, armed with the training in focus and concentration, you can experience a mental workout that keeps your mind clear throughout. Thirdly, the intense nature of the exercise produces endorphins in the brain, giving you that feel-good factor. This all leads to a workout which is both enjoyable and leaves you feeling invigorated, ready to take on the world!

This allows us to have your instructor available for close supervision on every session.

The majority of gym goers stop attending regularly within a matter of months. Having a schedule helps incorporate your 20 minute sessions into your busy lifestyle.

Research shows that exercising in groups produces better results.

The small group atmosphere generates a buzz, motivation, support and a little bit of healthy competition! We do not have more than four people to each of our machines at any one time slot and our trainers will show you how to carry out each exercise and explain the benefits of each of the exercises.

Educogym® instructors are vital to success.

All of our trainers are fully qualified and insured to train you so you can relax in knowing that you are safe in the hands of the Educogym Team. At your first consultation, our nutritionist will work out which nutritional programme is best suited to you through asking you some simple questions about your health and lifestyle. If you have any injuries that might need addressing before starting your programme please make this known and our trainers can then work with each individual through any possible prior injuries/issues and strengthen your body to the best of our ability. This is why they all our trainers go through world-class training in nutrition, exercise and mind technology. They must be able to achieve the university standard results before they receive certification. They must also attend continuous training to maintain the high standard set in Educogym®.
