Metabolically

Classifying is designed to help determine not only the state of your metabolism
but also a starting point in your Metabolic Precision program as well as how and when to
progress to subsequent programs. To obtain your Metabolically Classification, answer the
following questions using the category that best describes you. Your MP Certified Trainer will
then provide your Metabolic Classification - a clear picture of the state of your metabolism and a
clear starting point for your transformation.

1. Body Weight History

Whether you wish to gain or
lose weight, your body weight
history provides important
insights regarding the state of
your metabolism. Are you happy

55 years of age or over

3. Ethnicity
Other

From research, its clear that
Indigenous Australian or American
some population groups have
a higher genetic predisposition Mediteranean

Score ______ Corresponding Metabolic Classification_____________


Metabolic Classification A = Total score more than 80
Physiologically, nutrient-partitioning efficacy is very poor; glucose disposal and insulin
metabolism are also impaired. This person has a shifted metabolism. There are a number of
key aspects contributing and they have created most of them. Conventional diets dont work
for these people and they know it. In this case, success really is a journey, not a destination
(or a number). In fact, this individual may have focused on numbers (the scales, or calories
etc) for a long time now and is a major contributor to their past failures. The only way
forward is to create the metabolism that yields permanent success. The best program for this
classification is the 12 Week Metabolic Re-Program - this program is designed to
systematically construct the correct metabolism for success. In fact this person will need to
undertake two or three 12 Week Metabolic Re-Programs, refer to Chapter 8.

Metabolic Classification B = Total score more than 60.
For this individual, nutrient partitioning efficacy is evident, however, some key aspects of
their physiology are working against them (possibly age, body composition but also lifestyle
influences). Additionally, insulin and carbohydrate metabolism maybe impaired or definitely
not optimal. Even though this individual is health-conscious, results are getting harder to
achieve. This person may not know about Metabolically Precise eating as yet however, there
are some important bio-environmental components that are reflected in this score and must
be addressed. However, Im quite sure this person will experience a great result from their
first 12 Week Metabolic Re-Program. The Metabolic Re-Program will systematically identify
where youve got it wrong in the past and pave a very sustainable path for your success.

Metabolic Classification C = Total score 60 or less.
Physiologically, nutrient partitioning efficacy is high, glucose disposal and insulin metabolism
are also very efficient. This individual is not only health-conscious they have focus. A lot of the
MP principles have been incorporated into their lifestyle. If this client is new to MP, the 12
Week Metabolic Re-program is the missing link theyve been looking for. Its a process that
will identify the areas in their plan that have caused a plateau or stagnation in progress. This
individual may also have a high nutritional IQ. However, make them aware that even world
champions have benefited enormously from undertaking the Metabolic Re-Program. If the
client has reached this classification after the completion of a 12 Week Metabolic Re-
program, they are ready to move on to the next phase, based on the individuals goal.
