The number of Irish couples using IVF to start a family has risen significantly over the last few years. One reason fertility issues may occur can be due to our health, whether it's weight (over and under) or simply a stressful lifestyle. All of these things can take a toll on our bodies and our health.
With one in five families in Ireland experiencing fertility issues, a holistic approach with a focus on nutrition and exercise, is a vital first step for couples engaged in the fertility process.
Optimal nutrition with a focus on a balanced and antioxidant rich diet along with exercise to achieve a healthy weight, has proven to be a very positive factor for couples trying to start a family. This is where Gym Plus and their new partnership comes in.
Gym Plus trainers will meet with their fertility client and create a unique personalised programme.
Each dedicated trainer will be aware of the client’s stage of treatment and will be able to recommend exercises to ensure no additional stress on the body whilst training.
Whether you need to lose body fat, gain muscle mass or reduce stress levels during what is commonly a very stressful process, the Gym Plus trainers will work closely with their female and male clients in order to ensure optimal results. It can also be a nice way for couples to bond during their fertility journey in an environment outside of doctor's appointments and clinics.
The Gym Plus trainer will also provide follow-ups every four weeks to ensure the client is staying on track and the programme is a positive experience.
Gym Plus has eight gyms located throughout Ireland with highly skilled fitness trainers on hand to ensure clients achieve the results they desire.
The new partnership with IVF Fertility Clinics in Ireland will begin this month and you can find out more information about Gym Plus by visiting www.gymplus.ie.
