How Exercise Referral Works

01

Referral and Assessment

Your GP or physiotherapist refers you to R&B Fitness with details of your condition and any contraindications. Your coach then conducts a thorough initial assessment, discussing your medical history, current symptoms, medications, and goals. This assessment ensures your programme is safe, appropriate, and aligned with your medical team's recommendations.

02

Bespoke Programme Design

Based on your referral and assessment, your coach designs a programme specifically for your condition. Whether you have been referred for cardiac rehabilitation, diabetes management, joint replacement recovery, or mental health support, every exercise is selected with your medical needs in mind. Your programme starts conservatively and progresses as your confidence and ability grow.

03

Supervised Sessions

You train in our 5 to 1 sessions where a maximum of five clients work with one qualified coach. That low ratio is essential for exercise referral clients because your coach can monitor your response to exercise closely, adjust intensity in real time, and ensure you are training safely throughout every session.

Conditions We Support

Who We Work With

01

Cardiovascular and Metabolic

We accept referrals for conditions including high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic syndrome. Your coach programmes exercise that improves your cardiovascular health, insulin sensitivity, and metabolic function, always within the parameters set by your medical team.

02

Musculoskeletal and Post-Surgical

Joint replacements, chronic back pain, osteoarthritis, and post-surgical rehabilitation are all within our scope. Your coach works with your physiotherapist to ensure your training complements your rehab programme and supports your recovery rather than hindering it.

03

Mental Health and Wellbeing

Exercise referral for anxiety, depression, and stress-related conditions is increasingly common, and for good reason. Regular supervised exercise improves mood, reduces anxiety symptoms, and builds confidence. Our supportive environment and qualified coaching make R&B Fitness an ideal setting for mental health referrals in Bedford and the wider Bedfordshire area.
