Six Sigma Fitness™ https://www.facebook.com/sixsigfit/ and UltraFit Systems, https://www.facebook.com/ultrafitsystemsmma/ a Six Sigma Fitness™ Certified Training Center and an advanced self-defense and Mixed Martial Art and strength and conditioning facility, have been working together to create a health, fitness and weight management methodology to simplify, automate and teach trainers and coaches to perform assessments, analyze reports, make recommendations for lifestyle, nutrition and supplementation changes and create strength and conditioning programs for clients who wish to lose weight and become healthier and in better condition.
As part of the assembly of this team, Six Sigma Fitness™ and UltraFit Systems has partnered with Coach Yas Parr, an Internationally renown elite combat conditioning coach and author of the book “Strength and Conditioning for Combat Sports”. Yas will be contributing his long standing knowledge of assessments and strength and conditioning to the recommendations and protocols that are automated within the Six Sigma Fitness™ platform as well as developing an educational and certification system for coaches and trainers. As part of the Six Sigma Fitness™ and UltraFit Systems team, Yas's expertise in strength and conditioning in the combat arts is expected to make a significant impact on current training standards and methods.
Six Sigma Fitness™ and UltraFit Systems have been in development of a proprietary new online platform for body composition measurement using a simple and accurate handheld ultrasound manufactured by intelametrix.com BodyMetrix. The proprietary online platform uses artificial intelligence to interpret and immediately generate an analysis and report related to hormone and human chemistry likely impacting a client's health and weight gain patterns that the coach/trainer and or client can use as a basic blueprint for making changes to their dietary and lifestyle habits, exercise programs and supplementation needs. In addition the platform has added assessments for Movement Screening and Correction, VO2max testing, Biomarkers and Recovery. Evaluation of scientifically valid Tests, Surveys and Assessments is ongoing with the mission to simplify methods and interpretations while consolidating athlete data collection to improve client results and retention.
Six Sigma Fitness™ has been using this same program on some of the highest level professional MMA Athlete's in the UFC, Bellator and many other combat organizations as well as weekend athletes alike. Six Sigma Fitness™ intends to take their success with high level weight-class athletes and teach other coaches and personal trainers their systems and methodologies for assessments, protocols as well as data and technology integration with the goal to help the general population achieve the same results as their high level combat athletes
