Case Study: NHS Adaptive Programme

At redsun Health, we are at the forefront of adaptive training. We have pioneered a unique adaptive programme to bring fitness and wellness to the impaired athlete. Our coaching staff have specialist degrees in adaptive training, and have extensive experience training athletes with physical, intellectual, and development impairment. Our belief is that with the right coaching support and the right environment, anyone can achieve what they didn’t think possible and change their lives for the better.

We are currently partnered with the National Health Service of the UK where we are applying our redsun principles to teach clients with lifelong learning disabilities skills to improve their levels of fitness and help them achieve a healthier life. Many of these clients are obese and have been leading a very sedentary lifestyle putting them at high risk of chronic diseases.

Using our redsun Health programme, we devised a workout strategy targeted specifically at their abilities and level of fitness. And with the help of a certified dietician, we complemented their training with a bespoke nutrition plan to maximize their benefits. The aim as been to help these clients get on the path of an improved and sustained wellbeing.

Results 6-months into the programme, the clients lost an average of 4.2 kg. One individual in particular was diagnosed with diabetes prior to starting and manged to get into the pre-diabetic range following the programme, with no medication. We also measured their physical abilities throughout the programme, and all showed improvement across a range of fitness skills. Additionally, all clients displayed positive changes in mental health.
