Kick start your New Year fitness resolutions!

JOIN THE NEW BOWFLEX HEALTH CLUB – AFFORDABLE, ONLINE PERSONAL TRAINING AT THE CLICK OF A MOUSE!

Get your own online, qualified personal trainer – for just £2.30 per week

Have you always wanted your own personal trainer but thought it would be too expensive?  At the new Bowflex Health Club you can now experience all the benefits of your own, affordable online personal trainer at just the click of a mouse!

For just £2.30 per week, or £99.99 per year, you can work with your own, fully qualified online personal trainer, regardless of your 2007 fitness resolutions - from the serious ‘fitness junkie’, to a fitness novice wanting to kick start a brand new exercise programme.

And, at the Bowflex Health Club, the price you pay when you join is the price you pay for the life of your membership – without joining fees, price increases, or tied-in contracts.  What’s more, if you buy a Bowflex TreadClimber exercise machine, or a Bowflex Treadmill, you will even receive a year’s membership - for free!

So whether you want to lose weight, get in shape, improve your health, or achieve a specific fitness goal, the Bowflex Health Club is designed to help you achieve the results you want. It will also help you get more active and to stay motivated whether you’re at home or away!

As soon as you complete your induction, the Club will create your own personalised home page and one of its experienced and qualified personal trainers will be appointed to look after you – you can use your online personal trainer as much or as little as you want. The Club will work with you to create a series of exercise goals and programmes based on your individual health, exercise preferences and attitudes to exercise.

At a glance, Bowflex Health Club membership also provides members with the following benefits:

1. Advice and programme expertise from a highly experienced and qualified personal training team including medical personnel who have overseen all the development of the exercise & weight management programmes
2. Access to your own online personal trainer who will reply to your questions within 24 hours, 365 days a year
3. A full induction questionnaire including a readiness to exercise health check – and, if the club has any worries about an individual’s ability to exercise they will be referred to a doctor and denied access to the programmes
4. A personalised health report to help you understand your own individual needs
5. A personalised goal setting and training plan to ensure you have the right programme for you
6. Over 100 home exercise programmes including exclusive programmes for Bowflex TreadClimber and Bowflex SelectTech owners
7. Access to the Bowflex Energy Balance weight management programme
8. Easy-to-use weekly activity monitors to track your progress and reminders if you forget to complete them!
9. A fitness information zone with the latest resources, inspirational topics and reading lists to suit your individual interests
10. A monthly newsletter including personal trainer tips, news stories, member of the month competition

Created by fitness giant, Nautilus, and Working Health, a specialist in providing health and fitness services for organisations including Pfizer, Panasonic and The Home Office, the new Bowflex Health Club uses ‘tried and tested’ expertise from Working Health’s own virtual health club model for corporate customers, Activ-e, which has now been operating very successfully for the past two years.

With the growth in cyber gyms around the world, Nautilus and Working Health have not only developed one of the few UK-based online personal training services, but also one that is more affordable and easier to use, without compromising on service, expertise or support.
