BACK TO SCHOOL

As a teenager I HATED PE....

SO why oh why am I a personal trainer?

As soon as I left school I realised that actually I love doing exercise, fresh air, adrenaline, pushing that little bit further, being part of a team or just getting out and clearing my head. 

It is all too easy to remember cold showers, PE knickers and wearing nothing more than a vest and pants when there is frost on the ground. I WISH someone had told me then that this was not what it is all about.

I regret not taking more interest when I had the chance. Imagine now if a couple of times a week, during your working day you could just go out, get some exercise and have fun. 

Think back to what you enjoyed as a kid, athletics, football, netball, badminton, hockey the list is endless ...

Why not try it again? Cheshire councils are starting to run BACK TO.... courses. Specifically designed for people who want to rediscover their past sporting passion, or find out what they missed.

There are loads of teams out there, have a look. You might just find that being part of a team again gives you the motivation and support you need to STICK TO IT!


Why as a personal trainer do I suggest anything but paying me to train you?

Why not! I love helping people to find ways to make exercise work for them. That's what I do. If just one person reads this and decides to try something new then I'll be made up.

If you need help getting started or lack the confidence to join a team, check out my website. I can help.
