Understanding the Physical Demands of Airline Piloting

Airline pilots endure a range of physical challenges while operating in the cockpit. Prolonged sitting, exposure to vibrations, and changes in cabin pressure can have various effects on the body. According to research conducted by aviation experts, these factors can lead to decreased blood flow, muscle fatigue, dehydration, and increased susceptibility to deep vein thrombosis (DVT). It is crucial to understand the specific physical demands pilots face to design effective training programmes that address these challenges. Cabin crew are not as likely to develop DVT as pilots because they’re always on the move, whereas a pilot is usually sat down for many hours at a time.

Sadly I'm leaving the area and would love to take Nxtep with me. I attend the small classes. Chris has created a unique venue that would be hard to match anywhere. The environment is warm and friendly. The sports science work that Chris does behind the scenes to prepare the classes is immense, so that we don't have to worry about it. Just plug and go. Though education is always at hand if required. The classes can be hard work (results driven) but always fun. The equipment is of the highest standard. I've always been around sports but have never experienced anything so positive and rewarding. At 57 there is no way I would ever have thought I'd lift such heavy weights or complete these vigorous exercises. Chris gets you there incrementally and safely but always with great humour. He uses a truly interactive App that plots your progress. A fitness App that actually works, who knew!!Also the clients are lovely and incredibly supportive of each other. Well bloody done Chris!

Over the past alomost 3 years, Nxtep has been central to my personal growth. Chris and his clients make up a fantastic community of people who have helped me develop in many ways. No one lifts a single kg on my behalf or runs a step for me, but as part of a positive and nurturing environment I have been able to consistently, week in, week out, exceed my expactations of what I am capable of. The Physical and mental benefits I have experienced since being a part of this community have been game changing and I owe them a great deal. Aidan.

Chris has been absolutely amazing at supporting me on my fitness journey. Everything is tailored to the individual so it suits everyone no matter what stage you're at. There's a really supportive environment that I haven't experienced elsewhere and the flexibility Chris has shown to me when needed has been amazing. Would never go anywhere else now!

Have been training regularly each week since October at Nxtep and just wanted to give some feedback on my experience which has been nothing short than excellent. Chris, Luca and the team have provided one and one expertise, techniques, dietary plans to help with weight loss, build lean muscle and improve fitness. Can’t shout their praises enough. Good job Nxtep.

I signed up for the 6 week body transformation initially to help me get my pre baby body back after gaining a lot of weight through pregnancy. I lost 8.6kgs in the 6 weeks and have since renewed my membership to continue with my progress and I’m almost down 10kgs in total only 2kgs away from my pre pregnancy weight. I have always hated going to the gym and would dread going initially but now I am 8 weeks in, training 3x per week and feeling fitter and much happier in myself it is something I definitely want to continue. I feel it has really changed my lifestyle and I am making healthier choices everyday with a much more positive outlook, my family have commented that the old Hannah is back as before I felt I’d lost myself since becoming a mum for the first time. Chris and Luca are incredibly knowledgeable about anatomy which was very important to me after having a C-section and I have seen huge improvements in my core and lower back stability. I am also enjoying the new friends I am making from the sessions and never thought I’d say it but I’m looking forward to continuing the training long term and being in the best shape of my life!!

I initially joined Nxtep to get a better grip on my fitness levels after yo-yoing for years with sporadic classes and runs. It was an excellent decision as the sessions are three times a week which quickly got me in a good rhythm. Chris and Luca are both fantastic and very patient with a newbie like myself who had never lifted weights before. They have really helped me understand fitness and weight lifting a lot better. They also adjusted any exercises based on my capabilities as I had an injured shoulder for a while, and with the rehab exercises they gave me that’s now back to normal. I can’t recommend Nxtep enough!

I've been working with the guys at Nxtep for about a year now; I originally joined thinking it would be a short-term thing to lose weight for my wedding.A year later and I'm married, 12kg lighter than when I first started, lifting much heavier weights and am in much better shape in general. Chris and Luca have been amazing with my training; they always challenge me to try new things and to push further, which is really helpful for someone who's training has always seemed to plateau in the past.They've also taught me about health and fitness as a lifestyle; there's so much more to it than lifting some weights or constantly being on a diet, and they always keep things new, fun and flexible. They're also really helpful and approachable guys; I've messaged them lots of times to ask for training tips and advice when I'm going to the gym outside of training hours, and they're always more than happy to help.

I first met Chris in January 2020. I was 12 weeks pregnant with my first child. As a trained dancer, and teacher I was hoping to maintain my levels of fitness whilst minimising the risks of my pregnancy. My early dance training concentrated on training my limbs, while often neglecting my ‘centre’ or ‘core’. It wasn’t until a back injury in 2012 due to weak lower back muscles that my approach to training changed. When I first found out about my pregnancy, I worried about my back and how to keep it strong.Chris helped me through my pregnancy teaching me safe ways of keeping my core strong, helping with my postural alignment as well as addressing some muscular imbalances that I wasn’t aware I had. Most importantly, Chris gave me the confidence to continue training through pregnancy. I knew I was in safe hands. Chris is phenomenally knowledgeable in how our bodies work.May 2022, I am currently pregnant with my second child and still continuing to train with Chris at Nxtep. Luca has also joined the team and is a fantastic addition. They are a great team, and I am very lucky to be trained by them both. I would highly recommend anyone thinking about pre or post natal pregnancy training to consider Nxtep.

Before starting at Nxtep I would go through a cycle of starting to get fit, injuring my back, then avoiding exercise for fear of making it worse. The same happened when I started here, with my over eagerness to improve leading to the same old injury. Chris and Luca kept me motivated and coached me through the recovery process, allowing me to strengthen the areas susceptible to injury and enabling me to carry on where I’d previously have given up. Now I’m lifting ~100kg more than when I first started and the past few years of persistent back injury seem a distant memory. The guys have helped me with my nutrition, my outlook and overcoming what I previously thought I couldn’t. I can’t thank them both enough!

I’ve been working with Chris and the team at Nxtep, and the initially just wanted to get stronger and fitter somewhere local when the gym near work was no longer an option due to the pandemic. I know feel really confident handling weights and my diet. I recently saw myself in a film from before I started at Nxtep and other people couldn’t recognise me from me who didn’t know me well so, it definitely works! Highly recommended.

Training at Nxtep during Covid was tricky but Chris and Luca made it work! Started with training outdoors in the carpark before we were allowed to move indoors, it was always fun and I feel I made real progress.It never felt just like a business and always felt more caring, I was also doing it as part of my DofE to which Luca/Chris were very helpful with.I've had to stop due to other focuses in life but I've got some real fond memories of the time and am hoping to go back later if I can!

Effects of Irregular Schedules and Time Zone Changes

The aviation industry operates around the clock, subjecting pilots to irregular work schedules and frequent time zone changes. These disruptions can disrupt sleep patterns and interfere with the body’s natural circadian rhythm, leading to fatigue, decreased cognitive function, and increased risk of errors. Managing sleep and adjusting to new time zones are crucial considerations for pilot well-being. Research suggests implementing strategies such as light exposure management, strategic napping, and sleep hygiene practices to mitigate the effects of irregular schedules and time zone changes on pilots. Incorporating these strategies alongside a bespoke personal training programme designed for pilots can optimise sleep patterns and enhance overall well-being.

Stress Management and Mental Wellbeing

Piloting an aircraft comes with immense responsibilities and high-pressure situations. The ability to manage stress effectively and maintain mental well-being is paramount for pilots. It is well known that physical exercise is one of the great stress relievers, but finding time as a pilot can be tricky. However our personal training programmes can be planned in around your schedule, no matter how irregular it may be.

It’s not all about physical exertion though – research shows that mindfulness practices and stress management techniques can significantly reduce stress levels and improve mental well-being. By incorporating these practices into your life as well as personal training, pilots can enhance their overall mental resilience and performance.

Benefits of Personal Training for Airline Pilots

Enhancing Cardiovascular Fitness and Endurance

Cardiovascular fitness is vital for pilots, as it supports endurance and reduces the risk of fatigue during long flights. This is why our personal training for pilots programme always includes cardio exercises tailored to improve aerobic capacity and promote heart health. Research indicates that regular aerobic exercise improves cardiovascular fitness, enhances oxygen utilisation, and increases overall endurance. By incorporating regular cardio training into the weekly routine, pilots can enhance their stamina, reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases, and sustain optimal performance for longer.

Strengthening Core Muscles for Postural Support and Stability

Maintaining good posture and stability is essential for pilots, as it helps prevent back pain and reduces the risk of injuries. Strengthening core muscles through targeted exercises can improve posture, enhance stability during flight manoeuvres, and contribute to overall physical well-being. Research suggests that core strengthening exercises improve postural stability, reduce the risk of lower back pain, and enhance overall musculoskeletal health. This is why our personal trainers have designed programmes that address specific postural issues commonly faced by pilots, to act as both prevention and cure.

Improving Flexibility and Joint Mobility

The nature of flying for long periods in the cockpit can lead to muscular tightness and reduced joint mobility. Research shows that regular stretching exercises improve joint flexibility, enhance muscle performance, and reduce the risk of musculoskeletal injuries. So our personal training programmes incorporate stretching routines and exercises that focus on improving flexibility and joint mobility, as having an increased range of motion helps mitigate the negative effects of prolonged sitting, reduces the risk of injuries, and enhances overall comfort. 

Increasing Muscular Strength and Power

In emergency situations, pilots may be required to exert physical strength and power to handle critical situations, such as having to pull back on the yoke with extreme force for prolonged periods. Strength training exercises, including resistance training and functional movements can enhance muscular strength and power needed for these situations. Research indicates that strength training improves muscular strength, power, and endurance, enhancing overall physical capabilities, so by incorporating strength training exercises into the regular routine, pilots can enhance their physical preparedness for such emergencies. Our personal training programme for pilots targets the muscle groups necessary for emergency procedures, ensuring pilots are well-prepared to handle challenging situations. 

Enhancing Cognitive Function and Focus

Sharp cognitive function and focus are vital for pilots, who need to make split-second decisions in high-pressure situations. Research shows that regular cognitive training enhances executive functions, attention span, and working memory, so our personal training programme is designed to improve these aspects by including cognitive exercises and activities that stimulate mental acuity and improve concentration, decision-making abilities, and overall mental resilience in the cockpit.
