At Dangerous Curves, we believe in three essential elements to reaching our fitness goals. There are no magic pills and no short cuts around one element. And there are no exceptions.
  1. Strength Training: If you are looking for significant changes to your physique, strength training must be performed 3 times a week for 3 months.
  2. Cardiovascular Training: You will be given a cardio prescription based on the results of your oxygen uptake assessment. Cardio activity in your assessed target heart rate zone must be performed 3 times a week for 20 minutes or more depending on your level of fitness.
  3. Nutrition: In order to reach your fitness goals, you must be willing to implement nutritional changes. This requires following our nutritional coaching and nutrition plans which are designed to sufficiently fuel your body for your training activity and goals. Proper nutrition accounts for over 60% of achieving your fitness goals.
Before we begin training, each client participates in a Health and Fitness Assessment. This is a necessary procedure that allows Dangerous Curves to gather the information needed to design a training program specifically for you.
The Health and Fitness Assessment involves:
  • Seven site body fat analysis and anthropometrical measurements to establish baseline.
  • Resting and active heart rate and blood pressure readings.
  • Sub-maximal cardiovascular fitness assessment.
  • Strength and Flexibility tests.
  • Completion of lifestyle, nutritional and medical profiles to determine training level, goals and obstacles.
  • Muscular structure analysis to determine weak areas to be addressed with priority.
  • Body weight and body fat goals.
