Light sensible clothing including, lightweight tee-shirts, sweatshirts, (breathable material such as cotton or polyester), should be considered.

  - Women (large chest or not) might prefer a sports bra for extra comfort. No matter your size, some extra support is always welcome.
  - Men, wear breathable cotton or polyester tee-shirts or light clothing. Something that will absorb perspiration is good.

For the bottoms, wear something flexible. Consider an elastic waistband, or string cord, gym shorts, or tracksuit trouser.

  - Women yoga wear also sounds good.
  - Men, wear shorts or lightweight joggers. Consider not to wear shorts that extend beyond the knees.

Consider to not wear jeans. Jeans will restrict your mobility and tight jeans will restrict blood flow.

Appropriate footwear is an essential. If cardio, then strong training shoes with padding that can protect your angles, knees and hips should be worn.

Open toed shoes can injury you however some prefer to be barefooted.

  - Women, running shoes are all-round appropriate shoes for classes and the gym.
  - Men, consider training shoes that will give good grip as well as protecting ankles. Running shoes are good all-rounders.

All, users should wear breathable socks; cotton is normally the best option. High and low socks are welcome yet not tight socks. They will restrict your blood flow.

Carrying a towel, will allow you to navigate the gym, elliptical machines or classes; you can wipe down your area that you worked out on as well as pad yourself to remove perspiration for men and the glow of women. Remember that horses sweat, men perspire and women glow.

Either wash your gym clothing, after each session, (it will remove the build-up bacteria and in an age of pandemic, removing any possible virus,) or alternatively, change your under-clothing, and gym clothing after each session.

Eating a light meal, an hour before is optimal. That could be a light breakfast or lunch. Evening workouts can be greeted by a well-balanced reduced carbohydrates and protein rich dinner.

However, stay hydrated! … That is paramount. Clear fluids and yes, no alcohol before a workout or within 6 hours post-workout. So, clear fluids before, during and afterwards … remember your 2 to 3 litres a day (3 to 4 pints) of clear fluids.

Consider bringing your own water bottle as a reminder to stay hydrated and also to keep the virus to a minimum. You can re-fill your water bottle, with the water cooler.

We have HIIT bikes, static cycles, rower, treadmills and skiing machines as well as the free weights gym that you can just use?

You must have an assessment before starting to use the pole or aerial hoop. All can use the equipment despite injuries or over-weight concerns however and because it is an all-round exercise, then we need to start you at the correct level, and wheel-chair users are very welcome, so please,

No problem, book a consultation with us and we will work with you. Nothing should hurt in the body or mind. The body whether born able or with a disability is an equilibrium of rest and exercise, foods and liquids consumed and energy output. To much or to little will always cause an imbalance. The imbalance can lead to mental illness and also physical injury.
The most flexible, strongest, and those that desire sensible weight reduction or toning-up, all started at the beginning. Taking advice from a professional will allow you to progress in a gradual yet positive driven fashion.

The answer is a combination of time, correct food and fluid in-take, rest and correct exercise and remember, slow and steady.

  - Week one:

Food and liquid in-take - wean yourself off large volumes of alcohol, chocolate and crisps and junk food and replace with copious amounts of vegetables, and at least 8 glasses of water throughout the day. Vegetables include a combination of either, carrots, broccoli, spinach, parsnips, spaghetti squash, Brussels sprouts, green peas, cauliflower and sweet potato. Pile them high to keep you feeling full. If you like fish, then add Tuna and if you are not a vegetarian then have cooked (not fried) chicken without the skin. Avoid meats if possible.

Give yourself a week to get use to diet change and remember that you will go to the toilet more as your body adapts.

Exercise - think of your middle, (your core), so plan which exercise and the amount of time ... 20 to 30 minutes only.
Do it right - use either, the rower, the exercise bike, the cross trainer, or a class.
Take advice. Making your core strong first and that will make your exercise journey, positive and pain free. Let us guide you.

  - Week two:

Repeat - Think 21 days. That is the time span to create permanent change. So continue good habits.

  - Week three:

Do it right - Slightly up the pace.

  - Week four:

Remember the week one rules - if you have not so far been able to keep up then start week one again. You will always have time.

  - Week five:

Increase duration.

  - Week six:

You will see body changes. Maybe your clothing will be less tight or your arms are more toned. There will be an improvement without injury if you considered slow and steady.

Remember that your mind and body are in equilibrium. If you have stayed in your room or house for 5 years and hardly moved and gained weight, then think, 5 years to gain, 5 years to lose. Of course, once you have learnt to relax and do not distress yourself about good weeks and bad weeks then results will come much much quicker.

Remember, it will take time.

Please remember that. It will take time. However if you feel that you want to stop, reduce or plainly, give-up, then just think, ... I am less out of breath. I ache slightly less, I can walk slightly further.

Exactly, it is working.

At the start, whatever age, weight, size, (big or small) and physical condition, you really should consider, slow and steady.

  - First and second weeks: Gym usage - start with twenty to thirty minute sessions, 2 to 3 times a week
  - First and second weeks: Classes - twice a week.
  - Third and fourth weeks: increase your intensity however same time and duration.
  - Fifth week: increase duration.
  - Sixth week: you will see definite body changes without injury if you considered slow and steady.

Remember to discuss nutrition with us as well. That has to be on track to achieve week six status.
