Bellevue Hill Personal Trainer versus Weight Loss Spa - A Comparison

At the outset the two methods of weight loss treatments namely hiring a Bellevue Hill personal trainer and going to a weight loss spa look very much similar in their techniques. But a closer look at the facts point to the dissimilarities between the two methods. Since in both the methods, you have a Personal Trainer North Sydney to help you exercise, the impression that the methods are more or less progressing in the same direction, gains credence.

Losing weight in a spa is considered a relatively safer and easier option. Typically the spas use either saunas or body wraps for helping you reduce weight. Slimming is achieved in these methods through thermal techniques which lead to profuse sweating that eliminates the excess body fluids. To help achieve better results in a body wrap program, you are made to perform exercises with the body wraps around. To begin with, your fitness levels are evaluated at the spa before an exercise program is worked out. In contrast to the controlled temperatures that the body is put through in a spa, the personal trainer hired to help in weight loss programs prefers to work in a natural environment such as Outdoor Fitness North Sydney.

The body wraps contain useful minerals that help in detoxifying the body of the harmful toxins. The elimination of the toxins and chemicals in the body leads to shedding of flab. The spa also has a dietician who helps you to plan the perfect diet regime. However in comparison with the cost of hiring a Sydney personal trainer, the treatments at a spa are very expensive. The risk of excess elimination of the body fluids and salts exist in the treatments provided in the spas. There are no such risks when you work out with the professional personal trainers. Hence as far as the safety of the weight loss programs are considered, exercising under natural conditions prevails over exercising in a controlled environment.

The physical exercises performed under the supervision of a personal trainer could be carried out later even in his absence. Similarly using the body-wrap kits available in the market, you could wrap yourself at home to continue the weight loss therapy. However, in this case you would need assistance from family members to wrap and to remove the wrap. This apparently is a disadvantage to those staying alone.

The larger question that remains to be answered is the scientific basis of losing weight in body wrap procedures. There seems to be no valid scientific explanation on how much fluids are lost in the process. The exercises worked out by a personal trainer Bondi Junction or Boot Camp North Sydney are more scientific and also specific to the different parts of the body. But in the body wraps technique the entire body is tightly compressed with wraps to facilitate sweating. The emphasis clearly is on the elimination of fluids by sweating rather than on the physical exercises.

The weight loss programs devised by a personal trainer are personalized programs with specific targets in toning the body. The performance and the improvement of the individual are scalable here, enabling the personal trainers to review the programs and modify them, wherever necessary. This is not possible in a spa. The loss of weight is not within the ambit of the specialists employed at the spa to oversee the health of the individual clients. And while the weight loss achieved through physical training is permanent in nature the loss of weight in a spa is temporary. Thus for the safety, permanence and cost effectiveness, weight loss program under a trainer is better than methods employed in health spas.
