A friend and I were talking about my training progress, I mentioned that I was doing a couple HIIT sessions during the week in between my long distance runs. She then asked if I could help her with a HIIT training session as she was new to it, so I did and as soon as we stopped the session she insisted that I researched into becoming a personal trainer. She thought my approach during that one session was unlike to what she experienced with previous PTs that she had paid for.
I don’t like the demand and command style when training clients, most of my clients refer to me as being compassionate during my sessions.
I am proud of how far I've come so far, remember it’s your own race brothers and sisters and not to be compared to others.
I don’t really like the word or phrase "after" as I’m not going to go back to my old lifestyle because I’ve come this far. I still have lots of work to do and of course I’m a lot happier now with my training and personal health.
I have to admit there are some days I really can't be bothered to train, but one rule I try to stick to is "do a little something each day" even if it’s some press ups or squats at home or the days when not over Hampstead Heath or at the gym just something to get my heart rate up my body moving 🏃♂🏋♂🥊
