Our Formula

At V-Healthy, we’ve come up with our unique formula to help you achieve your goals giving you maximum motivation & maximum support alongside our fun & exciting workouts (help with the diet & the extra support is optional).

At V-Healthy we believe that everyone is ‘on a diet’. They are either on a healthy diet or an unhealthy diet. Diet simply means the sum of food consumed by a person.

It is impossible for everyone to have exactly the same diet and be considered healthy according to their body fat percentage, muscle mass, bone weight etc. This is because people come in different shapes and sizes and have different activity levels, and therefore different energy needs. Also, not everyone has exactly the same tastes in food, tolerances to food, time to make food etc.
If two people go on the same diet, person A might stay the correct weight for their height and have a healthy body fat percentage and muscle mass, whilst person B might lose or put on weight if they do more or less exercise than person A.

The phrase ‘going on a diet’ implies that you have to come ‘off’ the diet at some point. Most set diets are just not realistic enough to keep up for the rest of your life. There are therefore millions of people who have ‘gone on diets’ and lost weight, only to come off them and piled all the weight back on & more. If you’ve not done this yourself, then I’m sure you know someone who has. In fact, only about 1% of people who have gone on a diet have actually kept the weight off permanently.

At V-Healthy we want to educate you about healthy eating so that you can personalise your diet according to your needs and goals. That is why we give you easy to follow dietary advice from the most up to date scientific research and educational videos about different topics including nutrition, meal planning and food labelling.

 
As a member you will have access to your V-Healthy Diet Tracker where you will be able to log your diet to compare what you eat to what you should be eating.

Medical studies show that logging your food doubles your chances of achieving your goal whether that is weight loss, weight gain or weight maintenance.
You will have a personal profile page on our website where you will have access to a forum, meal plans and you will be able to swap ideas and recipes with other members.
Our fun & exciting classes include Cardio, Bodycombat, Aerobics, Dance, Circuits, HIIT & Boxercise . They are designed for all ages (16+) and abilities including people with joint problems, people who’ve never exercised before and people who have been exercising for years. They are also designed for people with different health & fitness goals, for example people who want to strengthen their back, people who want to run their first marathon, and people who want to lose weight.
If you’re sweating just thinking about coming to one of our classes, then sweat no more. We don’t use the ‘no pain no gain’ rule in our classes for two reasons:

1) Many people start exercise regimes feeling really motivated to see results, and they go hell for leather when they start. However, if you’re not used to doing exercise then you need to give your body time to adjust to the exercise or else you might put your self at risk of injury.

2) We know that you won't come back to classes & therefore won’t see results if you work at your maximum effort in your first class. You’ll probably feel uncomfortably sore the following week which will put you off going to another class because you think that it will hurt the next time you go.

Our Fitness Trackers enable you to work at your own level during the classes & they enable the instructors to coach you into the right zones for burning fat and increasing fitness. They can be used outside of the classes to track all of your exercise and will be uploaded to your profile page where you will be able to see your results, helping you to stay motivated and achieve your goals.
We've designed our classes so that by going to two+ of our classes/week or doing 2 of our online workouts you will meet the guidelines for exercise, and in doing so will reduce your risk of life threatening illnesses.
If it's weight loss or toning that you're after, you can track your weight, body mass index, body fat etc on our website. The reason why we don't just measure your weight is because muscle is denser than fat, so you could lose fat and gain muscle and your weight could stay the say but you would slim down. 
As a member, you will be assigned one of our friendly instructors who will give you as much help, motivation & advice as you need to help you achieve your goals. They will be able to keep track of your diet, exercise regime and Body MOT results and you can call, text or send messages to your instructor whenever you need help or advice. There will also be support from the online community. 
 

You will have exclusive access to your own personal profile page where you will find an online database and a forum which allows you to communicate with other members, enabling you to ask questions, swap ideas and recipes, share goals, results and motivational tips.

 
You will be sent educational videos covering topics that include nutrition, meal planning & food labelling.
 

To reward your success, we have a points system that enables you to build up points. You know what points mean?! Prizes! 

Social Events
For our class participants, we have regular social events. 

By following our unique formula you will meet the recommended guidelines for diet & exercise and could reduce your risk of Cancer, Diabetes, Alzheimers', Osteoarthritis and the leading cause of death worldwide which is Coronary Heart Disease, which kills 1 in 6 men and 1 in 10 women. Studies show that by following the recommended guidelines for diet & exercise, you could add 8-10 years to your life.
 

Our workouts are designed to help maximise your fitness improving your flexibility, cardiovascular fitness, muscular strength and muscular endurance. Not only will they help you with daily life eg, reaching up to a shelf, lifting a child, or cleaning the floor, they will also help you if you participate in sporting events, making you faster, stronger and improving your stamina.

The V-Healthy Diet Tracker, educational tools and the 1-2-1 support from your instructor is vital in helping you to slim down. Our classes, support and fitness tracker will also help you to burn maximum calories during and after the classes and slim down. The combination of diet and exercise means that you won't end up with 'saggy skin' or lose muscle tone including heart muscle (which you can lose if you 'diet' alone).
 

Our workouts are designed to help you increase muscle mass and definition of your muscles, but if you’re female don’t worry, you won't get big muscles, you’ll just ‘tone’! Men have about 20x more testosterone than women so that’s why they 'bulk'!
