Purposeful deception or lack of education? I went to Medi for some accountability and support in my…read moreweight loss journey. However, I was shocked by some of the things I was told which directly contradict so much of nutrition and general science. Most egregiously, I was alerted by a supervising nurse that I have "high cholesterol" and that a goal of my participation would be to bring that down. But, what was highlighted and she pointed out on my bloodwork sheet was my fantastic HDL- otherwise known as "good" cholesterol, which is measured in relation to a minimum- in other words, the higher above the minimum the better, and to "bring that down" deliberately would be a very bad goal. I did not tell the nurse at that time that I knew her information to be incorrect, to learn more about whether she was trying to make my health seem worse than it is so i would buy more product, or if she was severely out of date on training. The rest of my bloodwork was (also) stellar. Another stunning aspect was the meal plan itself. They do a metabolic test along with your bloodwork when you attend an intake appointment. My caloric needs for maintenance were reported to be around 1800 calories. I commented that this information tells us that 12-1300 calories would be the standard weight loss target (a 500 cal deficit per day will yield a 1.5 lb /week loss on average) and I was told "no, the weight loss target for that range is 600 calories a day." The Medi program may be "the one that works," but it works because you are being starved- you could eat 600 calories of skittles per day and absolutely would drop tons of weight, because you are dying! The program also allows for FOUR protein shake "replacements" per day (which is egregious), and a very very minimal amount of vegetable which necessitates the abundance of laxatives the program sells. No fruit, no whole grains. This diet is Atkins on steroids, Keto on... just awful. Unlike traditional ketosis plans, this diet does not provide the caloric compensation of fat to reach that minus-500 caloric target which is the all-but universal standard for achieving weight loss without damaging the bones, muscles, brain and metabolism. Each visit with the team was very disappointing- these are pleasant, friendly folks (lovely reception staff) who are touting what i expect to be company-line misinformation, in a medically coded environment. Some information is merely out of date (though drastically so) such as that it is essential (or even useful) to chug a protein shake within 30 minutes of exercise (debunked for years, only has a very slight potential impact for the most elite of athletes who are maxed out in every other efficiency). I was even told that FATS will put me out of ketosis, which I asked to clarify and was reconfirmed (false). They sell a variety of vitamin injections which are chock-full of disclaimers as to their efficacy (wise because they are also debunked) and a wide array of "metabolic boosting" supplements. Participants in this program are likely to have significant short term weight loss due to the extreme caloric deficits with the aid of a vast selection of appetite suppressants- however, once those suppressants are discontinued (and each has very serious side effects, some are meant to be used very short term and will be prescribed indefinitely here) they will regain the weight rapidly. In short, this is a money-making business like any other and due to the extreme vulnerability of folks in weight management and scientific inaccuracies, I think it would be inaccurate to classify their methods as anything other than harmful. If you want to maximize on your health, I recommend seeing a certified dietician and making small incremental changes.

I've changed my diet, exercise, and lifestyle to lead an overall healthier and happier life.

Even though the dr. doesn't participate with insurance companies, it is worth every penny. (Depending on what company it is, I know you can get an invoice to submit for reimbursement which is fine with me.)

Energy Zone, located in Cromwell, CT, is the best thing that ever happened to me. I've always been…read morea gym rat- since 1992. However, after a serious back injury in 2011, my life that was once filled with fitness and wellness came to a screeching halt. I wasn't permitted to exercise for a while, but that "while" turned into days, weeks, months, as I gained a large amount of weight. In 2017, I decided that a change needed to take place, and I needed to shape up my life. I looked and sampled many gyms in my area; NEAC, The Cage, Rocky Hill Fitness and tennis, Rebel Fitness, WOW, and LA Fitness. You'd think that one of them would be able to address my needs, but they didn't. Most had "factory-like" atmospheres where people by the hundreds biked, ran on treadmills, and mindlessly peddled away on ellipticals. The classes weren't much better. Some were intimidating with anorexic-like instructors who yelled and taught at their own fitness levels with no modifications or cues. I tried several different classes at many places, but not once felt that I fit in. Then- it finally happened. I walked through the doors of Energy Zone Fitness in Cromwell, located at a small strip mall on Shunpike Road. It looked like most gyms from the outside, but after I entered this place, I immediately felt at ease. Friendly, smiling faces greeted me instead of a dud sitting at a desk playing with his / her phone. I was given a tour and then watched a group fitness class that used trampolines. I peered closer to observe 20+ people, all shapes, all sizes, some young, some old, women and men, etc. I was in awe of the clear modifications the instructor directed them with and watched for several minutes. Behind me, a small group of people were working with a trainer, who had them participate in a series of circuits, which contained cardio, resistance, and weighted exercises for every body part. I continued to view them jumprope, lift weights, use machinery, and work in pairs for some other exercises. It was then that I knew I found my new fitness home. I've been going for over a year, participating in all group fitness and circuit classes and love every minute. I've lost weight, and more importantly- am feeling stronger than ever. If you're serious about starting a fitness regime, I can't recommend this gym enough. So, start your journey today- not tomorrow. They're waiting for you and you won't be sorry... It's Cromwell's best kept secret- and once you're "in on the secret", you'll never look back.
