Deciding our goal.

Deborah and I started training back in January this year. Deborah’s goal was weight loss and to better her overall fitness level, so she can look good and feel confident in her clothes and play around with her Grandson without feeling breathless and enjoy herself.

Deborah’s weight was 16 stone 4 lb and although being overweight at this time for her 5 ft 4 in height, she looks sporty and quite toned.

Work begins Deborah chooses the 3-month Body Boost Program where we can work together very closely. In fact, any less than this would not get the results she wanted. This entails meeting 2 or 3 times a week to work out and exercise on the other days in the online group. We set a long-term goal of 12 stone for the future and a short-term goal of 14 stone for spring.

Getting to work

We got to work firstly on her cardiovascular fitness and gradually as Deb became fitter and fitter her breathing really improved. I was knocked back by her strong determination and consistency to succeed in her program. She is a pleasure to train and work with full of motivation.

Determination and hard work pays off

This paid off by April Deborah had lost a stone in weight down to 15 stone. Looking much better, breathing improved, BMI down and into 2 sizes smaller cloaths, and feeling much better. Beginning to enjoy long walks doing extra classes in her spare time and cooking really healthy food, all the components to success.

We hit a plateau

However, we hit a plateau this was a nightmare for Deborah as she was working so hard . Plateau is when you stop at a weight and don’t lose any more weight. Also, an arm injury slowed down her progress but she never gave up it was extremely emotional for her, and lots of blood sweat, and tears were involved.

We start using Circuit Training and Super Sets.

In July after battling with the plateau together but never giving in I started to involve Circuit Training and Super Sets in Debohras workout. This involves resistance training with weights, Cardio and strength. It’s grueling and tough but with Deborah’s hard work and massive determination the plateau is removing itself, and we have 5 lbs more weight loss now down to 14 stone 10lb.

Great results

I’m sure you will agree that Debora looks fantastic showing off her new shape. We are on course for 14 stone 3 lb for Christmas. We will have been training together for almost a year then, so it’s not been easy! As you can see it’s been a battle and as Deb says the hardest thing she has ever done! I’m full of admiration and so proud to be working with her determination and strength of character to smash her goals no matter what obstacles lie in her way! Well done.

Laura's Journey !
Focus on Laura Tickel !

Working with Laura is great, she is a pleasure to train, we started slow on our training program and built up. It wasn't long before Laura was doing lots of high-intensity training and meeting her goals. I have included lots of cardio and supersets which are great for weight loss and I regularly slot in Abs and Core training too. Recently, Laura has begun running and sprinting to reach her new goal for the summer.

Focus on Natalie Beswick

I am shocked when I look back at these pictures, I can’t believe that I used to weigh 16 stone and I have now got to my goal weight of 11 stone 4 pounds, I have also lost 77 inches from my body, and I feel so much better and have gained so much confidence now that my clothes fit better, I was hoping to get to this goal for my birthday and I have done it, I used to have no energy and felt my weight really affected my mental health, I am in such a happier and healthier place right now, it has been hard work however Amanda has been great supporting me reaching my goal, our weekly sessions have made me realize I can do anything I put my mind to, our cooking sessions have helped me understand my relationship with food, my new goal is to maintain my weight and continue to enjoy my health and fitness journey xx
