| Professional Reference Q. WHAT WAS YOUR LIFESTYLE LIKE BEFORE YOU STARTED TRAINING? A. A disaster – a heart attack waiting to happen!! Overeating, drinking far too much and very little exercise apart from the odd walk to the pub!! Q. WHAT MADE YOU DECIDE TO HAVE A TRAINER? A. A particularly stressful period at work had taken its toll and I needed to lose weight, get fitter and basically change my unhealthy lifestyle. Over the years I’d been a member of most of the gyms in the area, some as many as 3 times and they just hadn’t worked for me in the long term. So I felt that I needed to find a fitness regime that I could do from home and hopefully maintain. Q. WHAT WERE YOU LOOKING TO ACCOMPLISH WITH ME? A. The most important things for me were motivation (or lack of!) and needing to find something that I would stick to. I wanted to learn different ways of exercising from home and being inherently lazy I needed a trainer for the motivation to get going and keep at it! Q. WAS IT WHAT YOU EXPECTED? A. To an extent yes. I was very apprehensive and self conscious to start with and it’s a great testament to Paul just how quickly I relaxed and it was far more fun than I ever expected it to be! The variety is great and I too can say that not one session over the last 12 months has been the same. Paul just keeps on producing new ways of inducing pain and suffering! Q. DID YOU REACH YOUR INTIAL GOAL(s)? A. Absolutely!! My initial goals were the usual broad type of goals – lose weight, get fitter. I have lost over 2 stone so far (and more to go) and recently completed a 10k race. Bearing in mind that when I first started I could only manage running for 1 minute before gasping for breath……………………it’s a miracle!!! If I can do it, anyone can. I’m now training for a half marathon in Oct and the London marathon next year!! Q. WHAT BENEFITS HAVE YOU GOT OUT OF HAVING A TRAINER? A. The benefits are fantastic!! Overall the sense of achievement is just brilliant – from managing more crunches than the previous week, to completing a race! It’s all the additional benefits of losing weight and getting fitter and more flexible too. I’ve got so much more stamina, strength and flexibility for other things like skiing, gardening and walking. My blood pressure and resting heart rate dropped significantly which was such a relief! I can wear clothes that I haven’t worn in years and can enjoying shopping for clothes again! Overall I just look so much healthier and feel so much happier – what more could you ask for! Q. DO YOU RECOMMEND HAVING A TRAINER....AND IF SO WHY? A. Without a doubt and Paul’s fun and relaxed style has made it all so much easier. He seems to have gauged how to keep me motivated and pitched the sessions just right so that they suit my personality – where he pushes me enough without being a monster!! However I know that if I wanted to be really driven then Paul would happily step things up. I have really found it a treat to have 1 hour a week devoted to looking after myself. I think it’s easy to take health and mobility for granted and I am truly grateful for mine now!!! Polly Jennens, Lowsenford Earlier this year I slipped two disc's in my back and was fast approaching the big 40 feeling very old and fragile.... I am your ideal gym member (Christmas Card correspondence only) due to a very unpredictable work lifestyle. After some serious physio on my back I was determined to get back in to positive healthy state and include fitness as part of my everyday lifestyle, so decided to use a personal trainer to get to grips with this.. 1st Goal -Strengthen my core: Paul came up with some different routines that made full use of the garage & the garden - rest assured you'll never get bored with the same old routines - no more aching in the morning when getting out of bed. 2nd Goal - Stamina: We started with a couple of sessions a week in order to build my stamina back to acceptable levels - I'm not really a fan of running so our early sessions broke me in gently and now I'm conscious if I've not achieved my 3 x weekly runs and it's part of the self motivation of Paul an found it a great way to de -stress. 3rd Goal - Weight Loss: Fat burning plain and simple.. Realising that you're only cheating yourself when you're not pushing yourself 100% in that session and I love the boxing routines (Paul's really good at find something you like to keep you engaged) - dropped a trouser size and noticeably trimmer (still got half a stone to loose 12.6 st target). My quality of life has significantly increased as a direct result of my training programme and I would recommend Paul to anyone at any level hoping to improve their health, fitness or simply have some to push you that extra 25% that makes all the difference.
