You are participating in this 30 Day FYG Challenge because you are being given an opportunity to access the world’s first epigenetic (genetics + lifestyle) health calculator that delivers individualised health information tailored specifically to YOU.

Your club and trainers want to provide you with the best possible answer to your health and fitness goals by giving you the opportunity to learn what makes you and your body healthy at a genetic level.

It is about getting to know yourself, discovering how unique you are, and what works for you, from the right foods, to the type of exercise you should be doing, the time of day you should be doing it and what is best to keep your mind on track and motivated!

For the next 30-days you will work alongside your personal trainer and the team at ph360 to gain insight into the specific needs of your body. Through access to the ph360 platform you will gain access to personalised health insights unlike anything you have seen before, and most importantly, know how to apply the information in a way that works best for you.

Start of challenge:

• Initial measurement and genetic assessment with your personal trainer
• Shoot a short 3 minute before-video and take your before-photo

The short answer is, No. Ph360 is very different to any “Type” concept. It considers many many more variables that affect the way your body functions in real-time. A “Type” concept assumes that your constitution remains the same regardless of your circumstances. But it is now a commonly accepted fact that our environment has a large effect on your gene expression and body function, as does your age, as does your gender, as does your family history, etc. So ph360 considers your “Type” as just one of many factors that it calculates in order to provide you with accurate health information based on your current circumstances.

There are 4 blood types (according to Dr. D’Adamo’s “Blood Type Diet” science). That means these diets either place the whole world population into 4 categories. PH360 does not place anyone into any category and personalizes everything with thousands of layers because we are all unique and not able to be grouped into such simple categories. The principles behind the genotype and blood type diets aren’t wrong, just like Ayurvedic types (kapha, vata, pitta). The genotype and the Ayurvedic type are all puzzle pieces we use in layers to create the unique diet that best fits you.

Here’s an example:

Kale, in this site, is identified as beneficial for everyone. However, if you have a risk of a lower functioning thyroid, kale must be avoided. And if you have a risk of kidney or gall stones, then kale must also be avoided. And if you have diverticulitis and some other inflammatory conditions of the digestive system, that kale is best to be reduced or juiced.

Within the ph360 concept, the three somatotypes sit on a spectrum of Ectomorph>>Mesomorph>>Endomorph. A person will sit somewhere along this spectrum and can be classified as a pure Ecto, Ecto-Meso, Pure Meso, Meso-Endo, Pure Endo or Endo-Ecto based upon where they sit on this wheel. Where they sit will be determined by their skeletal measurements in the ph360 assessment.

Your trainer will have information on the exact place you sit on the wheel, it’s not just 6 options, there are actually 360 options – and this is only the skeletal structures, there are 14 other layers after this meaning that even if you have the same number on the wheel, you will still have differences in the elements that are best for you.

Your Food list will update each time you update your measurements in the ph360 online questionnaire. Sometimes these changes are subtle, other times they can be quite dramatic. They will alter by the amount needed for you to be in your best health right at this moment.

As well as access to the world’s most advanced personalised health platform, the team at ph360 have put together a specific series of recorded sessions on various topics to help you to understand the type of lifestyle and environment needed for your body to live through its genetic strengths and get the best results. With this new found knowledge it can sometimes be difficult to initiate the changes you want to and stick to them long-term, this is why we have also included weekly live sessions on all things behaviours, mindset and overcoming barriers to help you follow your new lifestyle with ease!

Remember, during this challenge you will be working directly with your ph360 trained exercise professional who will provide you with the knowledge and support and personalised exercise program, tailored to your genetic needs to ensure your success along the way.

They are 2 parts of the same thing! ph360 is the web platform and the engine of your personalised health information. Shae is the interactive app that uses the engine information to provide you with user friendly guidance on your mobile device. You can view your information through the ph360 website, or through the Shae app – both are the same info!
