Here is a more indepth look at what we are doing and how it is different:
BodyEvolver Health Management System
Our BodyCheck system has been developed to provide a compressive on-line system which calculates, tracks and reports on a wide range of basic health metrics. The data delivered is highly accurate and completely customized for each person using the system. It has proven itself to be an effective tool in educating our clients and in helping them too better understand their bodies and what it takes to keep it healthy.
The system is centered on a complete body analysis which we call a BodyCheck. This includes the clients’ height, weight, circumference and skin fold measurements. Once the BodyCheck data has been collected the system automatically calculates the client's current fat and lean weights and their base metabolic rate. Supporting calculations are also performed for Base Metabolic Rate, Body Fat Percentage, Overall Density and the obsolete Body Mass Index.
The system prepares a completely customized package of charts and illustrations which detail the clients present physical condition, and the change observed from prior BodyCheck records. This allows the client to immediately obtain a comprehensive picture of how diet and exercise modifications have and more importantly will affect their long term health.
The setting of goals and measurement of attainment are facilitated by a dynamic goal wizard or control panel. The goal setting tools allow the client, trainer or health practitioner to set goals by dialing down fat mass and dialing up lean mass to reach the desired values for overall body weight and body fat percentage. Each click of the fat and lean dials adjusts the respective mass by 1 pound. The effect upon body weight, fat percentage, and base metabolic rate are immediately calculated. As the base metabolic rate changes the daily values for the fundamental diet elements of protein, carbohydrates and fat are automatically updated. In most cases this allows us to compute a daily caloric deficit, or number of calories below the current base metabolic rate. However, in the case of persons with insufficient body weight the system will automatically calculate the number of calories above the base metabolic rate. The goal wizard also computes the impact of cardio vascular exercise and resistance training upon the daily caloric requirements. As any element on the Control Panel is changed all other elements display the impact of that change. This provides immediate visual feedback which helps the client understand the role and importance of the three pillars of maintaining optimal health and immune function – Nutritional intake; Cardiovascular Exercise and Resistance Training.
Once established a goal is saved and future BodyCheck measurements are compared to the goal. This allows a planned vs. actual graph to be developed which charts the actual results of the client. This allows the client to perform mid-term course correction to insure they remain on-track. Or in the case of many clients they are able to see that their results are exceeding their goal, and they have the opportunity to reset the goal for even greater success.
The BodyCheck system makes use of industry accepted health standards of nutrition and body metric standards as well as many proprietary mathematical formulae which help the client understand their unique individual health metrics as they are measured both today, and evaluated over the short to long term. This empowers the client with knowledge regarding their own body and assists with setting sound diet and exercise plans which when followed will match reality.
The system is visually intriguing and helps people to understand their bodies in a way that hasn’t been presented before. This system identifies many of the factors which should be considered when implementing a preventative health care prescription. The system revolves around real numbers and pointing out the facts that help to identify what is needed from an exercise and dietary standpoint in order to either put or keep things in balance, hence preserving or improving overall health and wellness.
