Similar to the foundational principles of Integrative Medicine, the concept of Integrative Fitness is based on the core belief that there single approach or ideology that will yield optimal health & performance benefits for all individuals, but rather a strategic combination of various validated methods that incorporate the mind, gut & physical body.
Whether the client is an elite athlete seeking optimal performance or an average end user wanting to lose weight or improve overall health, all users want to achieve adaptation (gains) in the safest & most efficient manner possible- but tend to ignore the master control switch: the nervous systems. Individuals can train properly, but if they are chronically stressed, not adequately sleeping/recovering or maintain poor gut health, their rate of adaptation will always be suboptimal. True health & performance optimization therefore requires an integrative approach.
