ACTIVATE HEALTH

Activate Executive & Medical Wellness Centre

What are we and what do we do?

We are a high touch, high care environment that offers a personalized and supervised training environment. We are NOT a gym. We use world class technology to track, monitor and guide our members to achieving their health and fitness goals.

Do you know that less than 10% of gym members worldwide ever achieve the goals they set out to achieve!

There are 2 ways to engage with us. This will be dependent on your needs.

The first way is via a 12- week exercise based, medically directed programme. You will be under the care and guidance of a Biokineticist. If you have a medical aid, more than 85% of this programme can be recovered from your medical aid.

Features of the 12 week programme

• You will be assessed at the start and the end of the programme by the Bio.
• You will get your own Technogym key that will record your workouts that will be prescribed by the Bio
• You will get your own myWellness account on your phone and you will be able to track your progress
• You can see your training programme on your phone or tablet so you will never forget what to do.
• You will see the Bio 1x/week for the full 12 weeks in a group session of no more than 8 people
• When you come in to exercise at other times you will be under the care of Exercise is Medicine qualified Personal Trainers who will understand your needs and be able to guide you through your workouts.
• If your Bio needs them to be aware of anything or take certain measurements, they will be able to do so.
• If your Bio prescribes exercise outside of the facility, all your data can be captured on your profile via most fitness devices
• You will be able to communicate with your Bio at any time via our unique coaching app
• Your Bio will send you weekly reports
• The Bio will send your Dr reports at 8 weeks and also at the end of the programme

Who would benefit from these 12 week programmes?

• Anyone who does less than 150min of moderate exercise per week
• If your doctor has told you your blood pressure is above 140/90
• If you have cardiovascular disease or have had a previous cardiac event
• If your latest blood lipogram is outside of the healthy normal values
• If you suffer from stress/anxiety or depression
• If you have any 3 of the following symptoms, High BP, waist circumference of >104cm in males and 98cm in females, elevated HDL cholesterol, High Trigs and elevated blood glucose
• Anyone who does less than 150min of moderate exercise per week

What is the cost of these programmes?

• R1900 per month incl. Vat
• This includes your facility membership for the 3 months
• This includes your Technogym myWellness Key

What is the other way to engage with us?

As we have said we are not a traditional gym, we know that 90% of people who join commercial gyms fail to reach their goals and then drop out of training.

The only really successful strategy in commercial clubs is to work with a trainer. At ~R400 per session this can get very expensive over and above your membership. So, we combine the cost effectiveness of a membership with the high success rates of supervised training. We do this with cutting edge technology to track, monitor and guide our members through their journey.

Features of the membership

• Month to month, no contracts. If we can’t help you achieve your goals, you should be able to go elsewhere
• You will be assessed at the start and every 12 weeks by an Exercise is Medicine Qualified Personal Trainer who will also be your coach for your entire time with us
• You will key your own Technogym key that will record your workouts that will be prescribed by your coach
• You will get your own myWellness account on your phone and you will be able to track your progress
• You can see your training programme on your phone or tablet so you will never forget what to do.
• If your coach prescribes exercise outside of the facility or you like to do other training, all your data can be captured on your profile via most fitness devices
• You will be able to communicate with your coach at any time via our unique coaching app
• Your coach will send you weekly reports

What is the cost of the membership?

• R375.00 per month
• R150 joining fee
