21.01.2022 H.I.I.T CLASSES STARTING AT MAIN PHYSIOTHERAPY Using our training and extensive university knowledge, Main Physiotherapy is introducing High Intensity Interval Training (H.I.I.T). This form of training incorporates bouts of exercise at high and low intensity levels over short periods. A session is 40-50min, with a warm up/down period and participants usually in and out in an hour. Main Physiotherapy will introduce some variations of H.I.I.T. in terms of functional strength t...raining (not Olympic weights) intertwined with cardio. It is able to be done by anyone with no musculoskeletal injuries and by someone who wants to improve their health, fitness and physique. This can be done fast with H.I.I.T. and research shows clearly that H.I.I.T. is the most optimal form of exercise by far. Our classes will be called E.P.I.C Exercise Physiology Intensity Classes. Each class will be supervised by either an Exercise Physiologist or a Physiotherapist, with 8-10 people per class maximum, this allows for optimal individual correction of exercise. Classes will be conducted solely in our gym at the practice. There will be multiple session times during each week with participants attending 3 classes per week. More information on times and pricing are available by contacting our reception. If you are committed to making a difference to your health ,we want you! Classes will be run in 8 week blocks. Each participant will be required to attend a 30 minute screening prior to starting, to ascertain fitness, injuries, and outcome measures (heart rate, blood pressure etc). Outcome measures will be taken throughout the 8 weeks. The significant health changes we have seen in this form of exercise are not only limited to healthy individuals, with research clearly showing that it is also highly beneficial to some patients with existing chronic disease. Main Physiotherapy will be introducing targeted classes for these people shortly. As with most new classes or an exercise routine, you will start steadily and build from there. Screening will be undertaken to ensure you are able to participate in the class. First class starts the week of Monday 31/07/17.
