  Fitness assessment procedure of the Stone Training System  
     
 
Fitness training under the philosophy of Gavin Stone is to achieve real results. The modern English translation of the Latin phrase from roman times ‘Nitor Opportunitas’ is ‘Strive for Fitness’. Nitor Opportunitas is the Fitness Decathlon and fitness assessment procedure of Gavin Stone and the Stone Training System.

When working to achieve targets in fitness training there must be an end game, a challenge to strive for and see the results. The ability to take oneself out of a comfort zone and into the realm of results based fitness training. No matter the level of fitness, it applies to all.

During the prime of the Roman Empire gladiators would have to prepare for battle in the great sight and cauldron of the Colosseum. These battles consisted of combat with both bare hands and weapons, and even involved combat with lions and tigers. The human body and mind was pushed to its limits of physical and psychological capabilities.  Preparation to enter the colosseum was not just a preparation for battle; it was a mental, then physical preparation for kill or be killed. Battles were won in the depths of the mind. This same preparation was required by the Spartans, Romans and Trojans of Ancient Greece, and Knights of Medieval times. No stone was and should be left unturned in the physical fitness preparation for results based fitness training, as will the Stone Training System with Nitor Opportunitas.

One of the biggest challenges that people face in modern society when setting out to achieve fitness training goals is sustainability. The main reason for this is because there is no concrete accountability when it comes to reaching targets. Hectic daily lifestyles blur and erase the focus required. Focused, effective and sustainable fitness training can be included into people’s busy modern lifestyles. At the end of the day it’s all a single package; your life is your body.

The Stone Training System returns modern society to select times in history, when fitness training was not an option; but a way of survival.

Nitor Opportunitas, the Fitness Decathlon returns modern society to select times in history, when fitness training was not an option; but a way of survival.

Personal Training clients will have five opportunities in the year for the Fitness Decathlon to take place. Gavin Stone will prepare clients to enter the colosseum. Like a champion boxer training for a world title fight, or an athlete training for the Olympics, the Stone Training System through its unique Nitor Opportunitas fitness assessment procedure provides the ultimate gauge of results based fitness training. Preparation for Nitor Opportunitas is designed for all levels of fitness. Nitor Opportunitas - Strive for Fitness
