Biosignature goes beyond standard body fat testing and pinpoints your unique Biological signature through skin fold measurement.
The novel concept of Biosignature was developed by world-renowned strength coach Charles Poliquin after noticing trends and correlations while working with athletes for nearly 30 years. Biosignature is based on his theory that where people store their body fat is an indication of their hormonal profile.
For example, the thickness of a person’s umbilical skin fold is a direct reflection of cortisol (the stress hormone) output. Scientific research has shown that a fat midsection indicates stress levels are high and/or the ability to handle stress is low. (Obes Res. 1999 Jan;7(1):9-15 PubMed).
The good news is that 1) it’s not your fault and, 2) it can be changed.
Your body fat levels and corresponding imbalanced hormones can be improved and effectively managed through a combination of diet, exercise, a targeted supplementation program and lifestyle modifications.
Biosignature certified and experienced assessors will develop that plan for you based on your unique biological signature.
What is it good for?
Your personal Biosignature plan is aimed to positively affect:
• Thyroid & Insulin
• Androgens & Growth Hormones
• Sleep & Energy Levels
• Body Composition (amount of lean versus fat mass)
• Overall health and well being!
The result is improved performance in ALL areas of your life – physical, mental and intellectual. By following the outlined plan you will emerge leaner, stronger, healthier, happier and more energetic.
What happens in a consultation?
The initial assessment takes approximately one hour. The practitioner then takes time to analyze the results and research the best plan to get you optimal results and any imbalanced hormones back on track. Follow-up visits are required on a weekly basis to retest and keep you on track.
Ideally, you should come back once a week for 11 weeks to see how your hormones are responding and keep your positive progress and body composition changes going! Regular follows ups are recommended until you achieve your goal or hormones are restored to more normal levels.
Follow ups take less time and the cost is reduced.
Prices indicated are for the 12 week package.
Preparation and Requirements
A questionnaire, a food diary and instructions will be sent in advance of your appointment.
