What a week it’s been! My friend and colleague Richard Clarke who is one of the best personal trainers in South Wales is away so I’ve been covering him for a week and a half as well as keeping the clients happy and on track up at HQ. I’ve loved it though. Been great to […]

15 Lbs Down And Starting To Enjoy Exercise

Yo yo! Another busy week at HQ! Finished off an interesting course yesterday, PSI (postural stability instructor). Was a really good course and interesting! For me it really hit home about how we need to look after ourselves to avoid the many many health problems associated with ageing. Not for me thanks! Look after yourself […]
