Exercise and fun for all ages and abilities

With my practice the aim is to have an umbrella of fitness for all ages and abilities, a section for GP referral's, children's fitness, sports specific, corporate fitness, 121 personal training, group training (all aspects available and keeping up with modern trends), so what makes my practice different from the already existing Leisure Centres etc. read on......

I cannot, as much as I wish I could, perform all of these ventures alone, I am always on the look out for future Instructors, coaches and Personal Trainers to work with me with similar personality and skills to that of my own, coaches that genuinely care for the client and their future health and fitness goals, and are willing to support and help direct them to a new and improved quality of life.  I know of a few already but I am not in a position just yet financially to employ, but watch this space!                                            The future of fitness is the Personal Approach and if exercise is not  an enjoyable and successful experience then the client will fail, and so will I!  Its not always about weight loss, its about having fun with movement, if the client has smiled whilst exercising that is a major step in the relation to enjoyable exercise.

I feel very passionate about the importance and benefits of exercise it has worked for me and turned my life around and I know it can do the same for others.

No Exercise or Weight Loss Tips here?

I often feel a little guilty that I do not spend much time on this site, giving hints and tips on diet and exercise,   how to set and reach life targets etc. the thing is that there is so much information out there that you cannot not see the wood for the trees and the odds are you will have to go through a period of elimination before you found what will work for you.  You may be looking to lose a few pounds for a special occasion, or wish to improve fitness levels for a physical event, improve fitness for health and well being on medical advice, or you may  be totally p....sed off with looking and feeling like crap and want to do something about it  NOW!

Well I will be honest with you no hint or tip I put on here  will help get you to where you want to be without you first thinking long and hard about  commitment, you have to be ready for the long haul!  It ain't gonna be easy and there will be times when the thought of watching  Eastenders is more attractive than doing 30 minutes of exercise, yuk! how depressing, but it will happen, I promise you, so, how you gonna handle it? can you handle it? are you women/man enough to keep going when the going gets tough?  What about the discomfort of  exercise? yep, thats why most of the population do not take part, and there is  plenty of it from spending money on a decent pair of trainers to the DOM'S (delayed onset muscle soreness).

So, where am I going with this? as a Fitness Instructor and Personal Trainer, yes there is a difference, for many years I have heard many excuses/reasons as to why people cannot attend an exercise class/session or unable to stick to a healthier way of eating form I have to "alphabetise my dvd's" to "I have not washed my kit"  to "I don't like left over food so I eat it" and "I have to have crap food in the house for the kids" ?

The Three Points to Fitness

If you're not sure what, when and how to exercise, the F.I.T  Principal will help.

F: Frequency, the more times you exercise the quicker you see results. Begin with one exercise session a week then build up to two a week, then again to three and finally  four to five per week.

I: Intensity,  if your exercise sessions are to intense your body will burn muscle and not fat, if you do not work hard enough your body will not burn fat, as a general guide for fat burning use the 220 minus your age formula,  multiply that number by .60 and that will be your fat burning heart rate, burning muscle  multiply .85.

T:Time, aim for a minimum of  10 - 15 minutes of exercise per session gradually increase to 20 minutes per session, as you gain strength  increase to a maximum 45 - 50minutes per session.
