The New Me Program
'The New Me' program runs on a 2 week cycle, having all guests arrive on a particular Sunday and leave Sunday the fortnight after. Many guests have chosen to stay for longer periods of time with several staying as long as 12 weeks.
The program is built on Adro's philosophies of Eat Smart, Move More, Think Thin, and we implement them through a variety of avenues:
• Tools (starter pack)
• Cooking classes
• Self cooking
• Group therapy classes
• One on one counseling
• Motivation seminars
• Education classes
• Group personal training
• Self training time
• Dinner outings
Tools
There are a number of great tools that you are given on arrival, these are things that are imperative to your success, tools that will not only help but motivate and excite you throughout your journey. These include a heart rate monitor, calorie counter, gym gear and equipment.
Cooking Classes
One of the most educational aspects of 'The New Me' are the cooking classes, coordinated by Sam Sarnelli (Adro’s wife!). These classes show you how to understand calories, prepare meals and run a kitchen, all in a fun and innovative way. Sam will teach you to eat not only how Adro did to win The Biggest Loser, but also how he has eaten since to still maintain his weight loss. There are loads of fantastic and fascinating recipes that will give your old kitchen ideas a new dynamic.
Self Cooking
This is a vital part of the program; Week Two is where your lessons are put into practice. You will be required to prepare your own meals and coordinate the kitchen as a team, unsupervised. This is an essential skill for successful life-long weight loss.
Group Therapy Classes
Sharing the journey with your new friends is something you will treasure, having amazing people who are going through the same thing as you gives such comfort. The program ‘Get Psyched’ will provide you with the ability to start dealing with some of the reasons that you are the way you are today.
One on One Counseling
The one on one counseling is another great weapon in this battle against your weight (and inner demons!). Anything that may be sparked up in the group classes or through the day to day activities can be spoken about in private with our professional counselor.
Motivation Seminars
Presented by Adro, these classes are the foundation for the 'Eat Smart, Move More, Think Thin' philosophy 'The New Me' is built upon. Allowing you not only into his life, Adro also allows you into his head with some fantastic ideas on how to get yourself, and keep yourself motivated and inspired.
Education Classes
In these lessons you will be able to get a better understanding about the process of weight loss, letting go of weight gain and being certain to know enough about weight loss that ‘should you ever gain weight again then it would have been a conscious decision to do so’.
Group Personal Training
All of the physical training sessions are run in groups, this is primarily for support and enjoyment. All sessions are taken by qualified and registered personal trainers who are trained and fully able to modify each and every exercise session to accommodate the special needs of each guest, to ensure that your goals are met.
Self Training Time
The importance of self training is to allow you to be accountable for your own actions, mainly your own training. Adro believes that it is vital for your outside survival to be strong and disciplined in the self training sessions because if you only exercise when one of our trainers push you, then who will push you when you return home?
Dinner Outings
The main objective to our night out at a restaurant is to give you a taste of how easy and enjoyable going out for dinner can still be. You will learn the skills required to go out and not suffer the consequences of poor choices.
