eDiet Fitness Plan Review

By WLR Dietitian, Juliette Kellow BSc RD

Personalised fitness plans are available at an extra cost.

To get your plan, you start by completing a questionnaire. This asks questions to identify your current level of fitness, whether you have any injuries (eg sciatica, broken bones, sprains and strains), what your goals are (eg to lose weight, tone up, improve flexibility), your current level of cardiovascular fitness (ie beginner, intermediate or advanced), your degree of flexibility, your pulse rate, the days you want to exercise, any specific body parts you want to tone, what toning equipment you have access to and which cardiovascular activities you prefer.

You then receive a fitness plan that’s based on the cardiovascular activities you like, the days of the week you’ve chosen to exercise and the length of time you should exercise for (including specific amounts of time for warming up, cooling down and stretching).

The toning exercises come with really good instructions and diagrams – although you will need dumbbells or some form of weights. You can also modify your fitness plan at anytime to account for any injuries you might have or to change your cardiovascular activities.

Unfortunately, there’s no indication given regarding the number of calories you’re burning through exercise – and you don’t get any extra calories added to your daily allowance to compensate for those you’ve used up in your workouts.

However, if you are following the Totals Plan, you can earn extra Totals by exercising. For example, 20 minutes of brisk walking earns you 1 extra Total, while an hour of aerobics adds 3 Totals. You can add up to 14 extra Totals per week.

Meanwhile, there doesn’t appear to be any advice given to recommend a variety of different cardiovascular exercises. This means in theory if you are an advanced exerciser and you only opt for step aerobics as your cardiovascular workout, your plan would recommend doing this every single day.
