5 /5 David Montgomery: I have had a great experience from the start. I wasnt in good shape. I couldn’t do a single press up, but now, things have greatly improved.
I have lost 20kg, reduced body fat to 21%, can do press-ups with added weight, pull ups and much more.
I have never been a gym goer, and much preferred sports such as tennis for general fitness.
My view now has totally changed, and from initially dreading the thought of going I now look forward to it. The team very much make it feel like a group sport, where everyone is supporting each other. There isn’t a client I have met that hasn’t had a challenge (over the past 7 months), but they all keep pushing on. That is a testament to the PT Centre’s team, as well as the atmosphere that they engender.
Just to speak to the big difference I see in what is happening at the Centre, it is much more than the mechanics of training. Yes of course, the team are qualified, and yes they know what they are doing, but it is more than that. If that is all it was, I would have stopped long ago, but 7 months later, I am still here and intend to continue indefinitely.
There are of course days when you feel things are not going so well, that you are not making progress, and it feels hard. Also, at the start I dreaded the finishers due to my low aerobic fitness level. They are cognizant of this, know just how hard and when to push so that it is enjoyable, and that progress is made.
I also believe it is important to have realistic expectations, otherwise you will feel that you are failing from the start. No ridiculous claims are made, just the reality of what it takes, which is simply consistency. Keep putting one foot in front of the other, enjoy what you are doing, enjoy the comradery and the results will come over time, which they do.
For me, only things that are sustainable ever deliver results, and for something to be sustainable it really must be fun. The PT Centre has managed to create that culture, which is why they have so many successes, and will continue to do so.
I recommend this to all, regardless of your level of fitness, or what your goals are.
