| Professional Reference "I dropped three dress sizes in six months and went down from a size 16 to a size 10. Picking up the phone and calling Simon was the best thing I ever did!" (Michelle, tel: 07854 535280) "I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you so much for the way you have reshaped my life. I can't believe that in the few short weeks since I first sought your help to get me into shape for my daughter's wedding you have truly helped to transform me and I will be proud to stand next to Catherine and give her away feeling and looking much slimmer, fitter and more confident than I would had I tried to do it on my own and without your help, encouragement and skills. My goal was to lose weight and tone up so that I could choose a nice outfit to wear at the wedding and feel happy in it. I also wanted to become healthier as I spend a lot of time sitting in front of my computer at work and sitting in my car to and from work, not a good combination when you want to try to be fit and healthy. I think the secret is that you started with an assessment of my lifestyle, diet, overall strength and flexibility and then tailored a fitness training course just for me. I was amazed at how good I felt after only one session and went on to have two or three a week, getting stronger all the time. I fully intend to stay on course now that I am stronger and fitter and to carry on with regular training sessions every week, encouraging my staff at MW Design & Marketing and my family and friends to do the same. I can thoroughly recommend your services to anyone who asks, be it a corporate or individual client, so please pass them on to me if they need a reference." (Mary Wells email: Send an email) "We started training with Simon 7 months before our wedding. It is infinitely more enjoyable than the gym & the benefits are so much more tangible. In 6 months I lost over a stone in weight & my physique became much more sculpted. Lots of people have complimented me & I felt fantastic on our wedding day. We continue to train with Simon as it has become an important part of our life." (Leah, email: Send an email) "After one training session with Simon I realised that I was wasting my time at the gym. Simon makes sure each session is different so there is no boring repetition. It’s much better value for money than paying for a gym then never going! I would say to anyone “go for it!” - it’s the best decision I ever made." (Duncan, email: Send an email) "I really enjoy the training sessions and it has been brilliant to see the improvement in my strength and fitness. My body fat dropped from 27% to 15% in just 4 weeks with Simon’s intensive 1 month toning program! My whole body is a different shape now - I’m leaner, stronger, more defined and feel much fitter." (Adam, email: Send an email) "Seven or eight years ago I stopped playing rugby. Ever since the combined effects of a working life behind a desk coupled with the occasional bout of corporate hospitality have taken a steady toll on my aching back and expanding waistline. I have made numerous New Year's resolutions to do something about it, but they have quickly fallen by the wayside. Now, however, by making the commitment to train with Simon each week, I finally feel that I am making progress. Sure I could have joined a gym, but if no-one minds whether I turn up or not, it's all too easy not to go. By training with Simon I find myself not only benefiting from the sessions themselves, but also conscious of what I eat and how I exercise during the rest of the week. That's not to say that I've become a tea-total vegan, but that Simon has helped me achieve a happier and healthier medium. In two months I've noticed the need to tighten my belt a notch or two and the way in which Simon has designed the exercises so as to strengthen the core muscles to support my back has been a great help. I look forward to continuing to work with Simon to sustain the improvement." (John Gilleard, email: Send an email or tel: 01482 326617) | |||||||
