8-Week Challenge sees Ben lose 17kg but gains a lot more

Ben Finds Confidence After His 8-Week Challenge

Ben Kyle first started his weight loss journey about 6 months ago when he realized that his weight had crept up to a point that made it difficult to do the things he used to – including playing basketball with his son and just doing general day-to-day things.

His initial goal was to get down to 100kg from 122kg, but after joining his local fitness center and getting scans on the Evolt 360 body composition analyzer, Ben’s success was far more than simply weight loss.

Kicking Goals

Ben made the decision to join BFT Bendigo in December 2021, and as soon as an 8-week challenge started, he signed up and made the effort to go every single day – sometimes even twice a day.

Classes within the challenge included cardio and upper/lower body strength to mixed cardio and strength.

“For my nutrition, I followed the meal plan I was given for the 8-week challenge, and I never deviated,” Ben reveals.

“There was no alcohol and no junk. I even stopped having milk in my coffee. I didn’t need any other tools as all calories were counted; the only supplement I used was BCAAs just to help with recovery…when you’re training that often, you need a bit of help.”

Ben had never set eyes on an Evolt 360 scanner before, but the challenge at BFT Bendigo saw him step on one for before and after scans, and the numbers speak for themselves.

Getting Fit With The Evolt 360

With Ben never having had a scan on an Evolt 360 before, he was impressed with all of its features and what it could do to help keep him motivated whilst on the 8-week challenge.

“I love the fact you can track your results in real-time,” he explains.

“When I couldn’t see the results early on in the mirror, the Evolt 360 scan showed me how well I was doing and kept me motivated. I looked forward to my scan every time.”

“I also love the fact that you can compare all previous scans and the way it shows your progression.”

How Ben’s Feeling Now

It goes without saying that once you start that journey in your life to find a healthier and fitter you, that feeling of being more energized and happier overpowers everything.

“I feel like I’m 10 years younger,” Ben says.

“I’m the fittest I’ve been in a very long time. I cruise through each day with more energy than I thought possible, and my son is the one asking for a break now!”

“I’m more confident in my body image too. I used to be worried about taking my shirt off at the pool, and now I have no worries at all. I’m so very incredibly happy!”

Wise Words From Ben

With experience comes knowledge, and Ben is confident enough now to provide some wise advice to anyone wanting, or even just thinking about, getting more fit and healthier.

“Just back yourself and go for it,” he says.

“I’m not special, literally anyone can do what I did. Just be consistent, that’s the key. Commit to 1 hour a day of exercise and eat healthy.”

“Get your Evolt 360 body scan done, and you’ll be surprised at how quickly your life can change.”

7 REASONS EVOLT MAKES SENSE FOR YOUR FACILITY

1.

A Starting Point. Because the number one reason members quit a gym is that they don’t use it enough, Evolt gets them motivated by providing a baseline measurement of the overall fitness. This motivates them to improve and provides an easy-to-understand measurement of their progress.

2.

Better Nutrition. By using the free Evolt app, your clients can easily monitor the macronutrient breakdown that is updated with each scan. It takes the guesswork out of a nutrition plan.

3.

Easy Reporting. Through Evolt Insights, our cloud-based reporting program, trainers have easy access to member profiles, allowing them to monitor their workouts and progress. It also facilitates automated Club Challenges.

4.

Recurring Revenue. Evolt 360 actually creates a third revenue stream after membership dues and personal training fees. Do the math: If you add just $20 per month to your base membership for one scan a month, each client adds up to an additional $240 a year — $4800 a year for getting as few as 20 clients on the machine.

5.

Unique Lead Generation. You can take your Evolt 360 out of the club to special events. Think health and wellness fairs, senior centers and recreation programs! The lead generation opportunities are limited only by your staff’s imagination.

6.

Training for Trainers. We don’t just send you a box and leave you on your own. Evolt provides a proven on-boarding program for all new clients to make sure everyone understands the process and the science. Your success is our success.

7.

Backed by Science. Evolt 360 is the exact opposite of a one-size-fits-all product. Its science accounts for the unique and personalized characteristics of every individual. Just like your club should!

8.

And one more thing: Scientific literature has written time and time again that there is no such thing as a direct measure of body composition — except in a post-mortem dissection of a cadaver. Scientific validation of BIA technology has proven the use of specific algorithms that consider age and gender to improve the accuracy of body composition measurement. The Evolt 360 takes that even further by incorporating five specific personalized variables – height, weight, gender, age and impedance – to provide the most accurate body composition measurement for any individual.
