Who are we and what do we do?

Good questions. First, I’m Dr. Brian Sekula and Director of The Health Performance Institute. You can learn more about me here. The Health Performance Institute is an organization dedicated to two important aspects of health, fitness and weight loss. First, The Metabolic Performance Program (MPP) is a science-based, dietary and exercise intervention. I call it an intervention because the foundations of MPP are not something you can easily find. You won’t get the information we provide from most doctor’s or nutritionists, the recommended dietary guidelines (or any government agency for that matter) and you most certainly won’t get this from your run-of-the-mill health or fitness professional.

So what we do with the Metabolic Performance Program is rather unique. But it works. So who can the MPP help? I developed the MPP to help individuals with . . . → Read More: Welcome]]> Welcome to my “new” blog. New is in quotes because we’re starting up again after a move to our “new” location.

So what we do with the Metabolic Performance Program is rather unique. But it works. So who can the MPP help? I developed the MPP to help individuals with chronic disease – obesity, type 2 diabetes, hypertension, etc… and it works very well. But as it turns out, positive results happen if you are feeling a little sluggish, 10-15 (or more) pounds overweight, have trouble sleeping or simply need some clarity in your nutritional habits (you know, all the confusion from magazines, news reports and “professionals” – we will clear that up for you).  

So the MPP is the first important thing we do. The other is educate fitness professionals. We have a school for personal trainers that provides a nationally recognized certification, allowing our graduates to work anywhere in the country. Our program is also certified by the State of Texas, and if you’ve ever tried to get an education program approved by our state, you know we must be serious about this school – just kidding, I don’t want the State coming down on me :-) .

So there you have it, a little bit about me and what we do. If you’re ever in Houston and want to give us a look see, just contact us. If you’d like to learn more about MPP, fill out this online form and someone will contact you today - unless it’s the weekend, then you might have to wait until Monday.

Talk to you soon,

Brian
