Just an ordinary lady, with an ordinary lifestyle, with the desire to help others get fitter & reach their goals… (Yes I do eat cake & like a glass of wine too!) I’m mostly as normal as they come (although don’t ask my friends!!!) …
So why have I become a PT?…..Well although I’ve been exercising for a long old while I am a cardio bunny at heart & I was really only using the cross trainer or treadmill. Whilst this worked to start with (along with a sensible diet) I found I had reached a plateau. Alongside that, having had an accident where I broke both wrists (which I don’t recommend) & with the onset of the menopause looming, I realised that in order to get fitter & keep my bones in good shape, I needed to start working smarter… I also figured being strong would help with my other passion – horses…
I don’t lack motivation but I really didn’t know where to start.. (much the same as anyone starting a new exercise programme). And so began my thinking around becoming a PT – to learn more about what exercises go with what, how I could make sure I got an all over workout & didn’t end up lopsided!!! That was about 8 years ago…so it’s taken me a while to get myself organised… Yes I too suffer from the challenges of life & time & fitting it all in, just like most of us. Nevertheless, with the support around me, including my own PT here I am.. Qualified & ready to help others… Well you… And if you’re anything like me you’ll have been considering PT for a while now & you’ve finally decided to go for it! Well done already!
