She'd had a couple of falls, was carrying extra weight and struggled to walk for longer periods of time.Her biggest motivation was her daughters.

I was regularly seeing an osteopath after repeatedly pinging my back and having my hips feel out of alignment. I was lacking core strength and using the osteopath as a band-aid for a bullet-hole problem."He knew what the real gap was. "What I really needed was accountability and routine, otherwise it was too easy to bury my head in the sand."So he started wit...

Exercise and high-intensity work sit at the core of her health and fitness, and that hasn't changed.What has made the difference is how she trains.

In her words: "While I didn't need to lose weight, I did need to build muscle and strength that after years of neglect was nonexistent."A lot of people will recognise that starting point. It was never about the scales. It was about strength that had quietly disappeared ...

In her words: "My energy was low, I'd lost strength, and my motivation had taken a hit too." That is a hard place to start from. The longer you sit in it, the harder it gets.Rose started anyway. She began training with Jonathan, and the changes came faster than she expected."I'm sleeping better, I ...

It is simply being able to move without pain and do the things you used to enjoy.When Eric first started training at The Right Fit Personal Training, he had been dealing with a persistent sore shoulder.Rather than giving up on exercise, he kept training with the support of Jonathan and Carl, working around his limitations and focusing on what he could do.And the result? Eric is now able to move and work t...
