Support Phases

We usually recommend three distinct phases in which we work with you:

Prep Phase

Before production gets into full swing we do the bulk of our work and assessments, setting up your nutrition and lifestyle plan, mindfulness strategy, stress management support and other beneficial services. This is our most intensive phase and typically the phase of production where you have the time to be able to work with us in this fashion. We see this as your proactive health phase.

Production Phase

This is where the initial prep work pays off; you already have some good habits & tools in place, now it is about implementing them into your schedule. At this point the coaching aspect of what we do is crucial. During this phase we have to be more reactive to challenges that arise.

Post-production Phase

This phase is an opportunity for us to assess what worked well for you and areas of consideration for the future. We can also reassess your health to see what in the post-production phase you might need support with to enter your next production in even better health than the last.

Bennett McGhee - Producer

Fit For Films were great to work with. The preparation, execution and after care were always sensitively and professionally handled as well as spelt out in as much detail as needed so that all engaged felt reassured and comfortable with the process of changing physical states in a short space of time. The results were fantastic and I look forward to working with them on many more projects to come.

Helen Bailey - Stunt Performer

“Fit For Films are so supportive and encouraging. By following their nutrition and training plan I was able to lose body fat and even muscles (which I honestly thought was impossible) all while having enough energy to work.”

Marlow Warrington - Stunt Performer

“After just a couple of weeks the difference was INCREDIBLE. I was feeling a lot more energised & mood had completely changed – Nothing was too much to handle and as a bonus I dropped 4kgs of body fat within the 3rd week.”

Calvin Warrington-Heasmen - Stunt Performer

“Within 12 weeks I lost 6kg, gained 2.5kg of muscle mass and my body fat had dropped to 11.2%. My energy is now very consistent and my mental focus has improved. Working with Fit For Films has been the best decision I have made all year”

Chloe Bruce - Stunt Performer

“Fit For Films’ accuracy in targeting certain areas of the body, or certain goals never seize to amaze me. Whenever I see them with a specific goal, they gives me a nutritional plan and without doubt, if I stick to it 100%, my goal will be achieved.”
