—————-

Outside working as a Stunt Coordinator and Performer, and keeping Actors fit and healthy for their action, I also work as a Health Coach and Personal Trainer, with qualifications in health, fitness and nutrition – Now working alongside very experienced Fitness Professionals, Personal Trainers and Nutritionists, we have now also developed our own dietary programme – The BOLDDBURN 1000,

Working inline with “Active NoW” – Broadland & South Norfolk District Council

BOLDBURN 1000 works inline with Active NoW, the ICB’s programme that provides assessment and triage into physical activity opportunities for eligible patients.

Active Now is managed by Broadland and South Norfolk District Council, and commissioned by the ICB, the “Integrated Care Board” which is an NHS Organisation.

The BOLDBURN 1000 Concept

CONSUME HEALTHY FOOD

BALANCE CALORIES IN AND OUT

CREATE A 1000 PLUS CALORIE DEFICIT OVER THE WEEK

The concept of BOLDBURN 1000 is to eat healthy and balance calories consumed and burnt, then to create a 1000 plus calorie deficit each week for a given time until your target fat loss goal is reached – This knowledge and plan is delivered by us to small groups at two hour seminars around the country.

Our plan helps prevent the diseases associated with excess fat and being over weight, tackling the problems before they become a real problem further down the line.

We focus on a healthier body shape rather than actual weight, concentrating more on prevention rather than the cure.

The BOLDBURN 1000 is a no fad, no excuses approach to excess fat loss and healthy living, helping you realise that you can take control of your own thoughts, actions and their outcomes. We encourage a positive mental attitude and to enjoy the journey along the way, helping you to “ignite the fight and delete the Flight!” All resulting in helping create that feel good factor – a healthier body means a healthier mind!

We try not to focus on the actual weight of an individual, as a healthy weight and size is specific to each individual depending on their body type, therefore we focus more on decreasing excess body fat, measured by a simple calculation at our seminars – then we look at achieving a healthier body shape. We don’t work on the assumption that “one size fits all”, everyone is unique to themselves.

It is absolutely true that some find it harder to keep excess body fat off than others, however excess body fat carried around the body’s organs is unhealthy, and this is what we aim to tackle –  The waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) is a measure of fat distribution, those who carry more body fat around their middle than their hips may be at a higher risk of developing health conditions.

The concept of burning more than you consume, and all our beliefs are supported by NHS Guidelines – We promote a healthy well balanced whole food diet over all the main food groups, allowing a few treats along the way, with an awareness of our foods nutritional value, trying to avoid too many additives and plastic packaging.

We work on the understanding our bodies are intended to digest foods whole and take care of the entire process – Our day to day aim is to live by the 100 year rule… “if it didn’t exist 100 years ago, don’t eat it”

HOW THE BOLDBURN 1000 WORKS

At our BOLDBURN 1000 Seminars, we’ll give you the following knowledge:

1. Work out how to calculate the calories that your body needs to maintain your body weight at your current lifestyle, including your lifestyle while at work and in your own time, and whether your lifestyle is inactive or active. – As an example, the average reasonably active person needs approximately between 2,000 to 2,500 calories per day to maintain his or her weight. (Note that the exact number of calories that an average person needs to maintain a weight depends on several factors, including their age, body composition and level of activity as discussed in our seminars).

2. Work out how to calculate the above said number of calories per day over a healthy balanced diet to maintain that weight.

3. Implement a calorie deficit, starting with a 1000 calorie deficit for the first week, whether it’s through eating slightly less or burning more calories through introducing more exercise – For example eat 500 less, then burn 500 more through exercise. The 1000 calorie deficit figure can be increased over time and is discussed at our seminars, however we encourage this figure not to be excessive.

4. Every week reassess the number of calories that your body needs to maintain that current weight, and reassessing the number of deficit calories.

5. Reach your target goal and maintain.

Our Seminars

Our two hour seminars are currently run in the East Anglian region, which are a mixture of practical and educational, guiding people through fun exercise and healthy eating advice.

BOLDBURN 1000 Classes

Regular classes are also run in the area, these are generally circuit based, and are focussed on a full body work out, with the aim on burning at least 500 calories per class.

Other Classes We Recommend – Boxing Based Fitness Classes

To keep the calories burning, if you lack the motivation to train on your own at home, then you could join one of recomended weekly classes…

Ultimate Boxing in East Anglia, run boxing based fitness for adults and teenagers. There’s no need to book, you can just turn up for this class. The classes are ideal for adults and confident teenagers who want to enjoy the buzz of the boxing gym but don’t actually wish to box in the ring. More and more people are realising how effective boxing training is for general health, fitness, nutrition, motivation and mental health but if getting a jab to the nose or a left hook to the ribs is particularly unappealing this class is for you – In these classes, the basics of boxing are taught which is great for self defence. The fitness is of course second to none.
