The Metabolic Health Checkpoint Toolkit

## Your clients are showing you the signs. Do you know what to do next?

A screening and referral toolkit built by an ICU physician for the trainers and coaches who are often the first to notice something is off before a chart ever does.

The trainer–clinician bridge

### You don't need to diagnose anything. You need to know when to say something.

Fitness professionals are often the first to notice declining energy, central weight gain, reduced exercise tolerance, or an abnormal home reading long before it becomes a clinical file. This toolkit exists to close that gap safely.

###  The Role of the Trainer

- Create a safe, supportive environment for movement and behaviour change

- Track non-diagnostic trends — waist, blood pressure, strength, aerobic capacity, sleep, symptoms

- Encourage clients to share results already given to them by a clinician.

- Use a clear referral pathway when findings deserve clinical review

###  The Role of the Clinician

- Confirm diagnoses and interpret lab results in context

- Evaluate medications, cardiovascular risk, sleep and endocrine concerns

- Decide whether testing, treatment, specialist referral, or modification is required

## "Fitness finds the pattern. Healthcare clarifies the risk. Fitness helps change it."

##### The framework at the core of the toolkit

## Green. Amber. Red. One pathway, so you never have to guess.

### Continue & monitor

Stable measurements, no concerning symptoms, exercise tolerated as expected.

### Recommend review

BP ≥130/80, A1C 6.0%+, or waist-to-height ≥0.50 with other risk factors.

### Stop & escalate

New chest pain, fainting with exertion, sudden weakness or speech difficulty.

##### What's inside

## Nine pages. Zero fluff.

- Scope-safe scripts — exact phrases for flagging a result without diagnosing it.
- Step-by-step technique for measuring waist and resting blood pressure correctly.
- The 10-minute checkpoint: ask, screen, measure, classify, act, document.
- A printable client worksheet with the full green-amber-red classification.
