Exciting times!

Excitement, excitement!

What am I so excited about you may want to ask ... well February is nearly gone, can you believe this? That means that we are all nearly two months into our New Years resolutions and training goals. I must say the last two weeks have been extremely rewarding. Being a personal trainer there really isn't much more you can ask for than a happy, results achieving clients :)! Another great thing is that the spectrum of your achievements is so vast ... absolutely amazing feeling.

So what has been happening over the last few weeks? Here is how well some of you have done so far ...

... starting from our monthly measurements and weekly weigh ins the most amazing so far was 17.5cm lost (on the usual 8 measurements - neck, left and right arm, chest, waist, hips and left and right thigh) together with nearly half a stone (3kg) less on the scales an 8.8mm dropped in the skin fold measurements (4 sites - triceps, biceps, sub scap and supra iliac) - and all that in only 4 weeks!

Moving on to new programme routines and structuring training, loads of beaten PBs (personal bests) on all the big lifts like squats, deadlifts and bench presses.

Some of you have got some serious wind under their wings and booked in for their very first charity race ... bring on the just giving link so we can sponsor!

A couple of you have massively improved their flexibility and proprioception, smashing through toe taps, scorpions and all those little annoying things that you could not get just right for a while.

Old suits that have been sitting in a wardrobe being too tight are fitting back on again.

New eating habits and even more important thinking - it's all about attitude!!!

The list could go on ...

What about me then? Well my first big 2010 goal is getting closer and closer. 100kg deadlift by the end of March. I am already on 90kg and going strong! Also did the liquid diet which you all know enough about already. Put my training back on track and of course run up the mighty Gherkin in 8.03min - way below what I was aiming for (10min).

Really and truly fantastic job everyone! Keep it going and we will go far together, but remember it's all up to you in the first place!

Happy Friday and have a wicked weekend.

Marta :)
