How important is a healthy diet to someone’s health and wellbeing?
Exercise and Nutrition go hand in hand, but how you work it may be different for everyone. Some prefer exercise first then add nutrition component, some prefer nutrition and then add exercise and other just want to jump in boots and all, but whatever you do the results come when you can get both your nutrition and exercise working together.
How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
We take a monitored approach to each individual stepping them through the process. Each person will have a different motivation so it is our job to make sure that we are motivating and monitoring the client so that they can see their progress.
What’s the secret to getting the body of your dreams?
No secret, consistency consistency consistency. Trying to get the body of your dreams can be a challenge if you are not sure what you are aiming for so work with us to ensure that you have a time line and a process.
What do you love most about your job?
After 25 year as a PT and even longer in the health and fitness industry, I enjoy the challenge of clients and watching the improvements that they didn't believe could happen when they follow a programme designed for them.
What inspired you to start your own business?
That's an easy one, I was working in a large Gym as a PT and couldn't keep a track of my clients, who came in, when they came in and if they were doing the exercise correctly. Now being in a smaller gym and with a great team we can look after the each person and give them so much more support.
Why should our clients choose you?
Wow always a difficult one, the biggest is my experience, with 25 years as a PT. Some of my client have been with me for over 10 years, so I must be doing something correct. The second is that I have a great set of nutritionists and PTs that work with me allowing me to get the best out of a small team of professionals with a mixture of expertise.
