This is far from simple reduction in food intake nowadays. It rather focuses on selection and preparation of food in such a way as to prevent the loss of muscle mass during the reduction programme, but rather to lose body fat only. Common reducing diet conforms, to a certain extent, to the patient´s health and habits.

This is carried out on the basis of the most modern research with professionally calculated training pulse rate, under the sport tester´s control. The sporttester consists of a receiver in a form of a chest belt, and of a digital receiver in a form of wristwatch.
