Putting the FORCE back into your LIFE through group fitness programs

…and feel confident with the instructors that I will gain a huge amount for my self worth.

As a very new member of the Life Force Team – boot camp group in the Barossa I am beginning to feel the results of my efforts after only 7 sessions - coming out with a group younger than myself and pushing my limits more and more each morning.

At age 56 I am really pleased with myself that I have taken the step to join in and treat myself to a better healthier future as I grow older.

I am proud of my efforts so far and can see that I will only improve as the weeks pass and i look forward to a ‘new me’. I feel very happy that i am gaining strength, confidence in my achievements and feel confident with the instructors that I will gain a huge amount for my self worth.

I am very happy to have met the instructors and new friends….it has been great !

It allowed me to set goals and I had somewhere to aim towards. My work out has taken on a whole new dimension…

I had been taking kick boxing classes twice a week for 12 months and I decided to do a personal training session with Liam.

It was really good for me because I realized that I had a few problems, some of them were mental and some of them were physical. Going into the session I didn’t really know what I was going to get out of it, but by the end of the session I had identified the areas which needed to be improved.

I found the session benefited me more in the sessions proceeding it. It allowed me to really think about what (techniques) needed to be improved and how I was going to do it. It allowed me to set goals and I had somewhere to aim towards.

My work out has taken on a whole new dimension, and every session I feel as if I’m getting better and better.

This brief conversation is the starting point of a new outlook and life style, it was the catalyst to a bigger and brighter future.

“I wonder what they’re doing”? as we walked past for the tenth time. “It looks like they’re boxing”!!! “We should do that”, “Yeah, we should”. This was a conversation between my wife and I about three months prior to making a telephone call and arranging to attend our first ‘come and try’ session with Life Force Training.  This brief conversation is the starting point of a new outlook and life style, it was the catalyst to a bigger and brighter future.

You see, after those first come and try sessions, we turned the television off. We committed to three lessons a week and we haven’t looked back since, it’s only been three months. The difference between now and then? For me personally, is 12 centimetres, that’s 12 cm from my waistline, I have feet!!!. My wife is looking and feeling healthier, my son who also attends is building muscle and looking healthier, my other son is taking up lessons.

All this because we don’t walk past anymore, we walk in. We walk into a health and fitness program that offers personal attention, help, support and encouragement. I feel stronger and healthier than I have in years, I’m working hard and enjoying the benefits of attending Life Force Strength and Fitness Training. I should have done this years ago!

All these things lead to a huge sense of self satisfaction and also both physical and mental well being.

“ YOU WOULD HAVE TO BE NUTS “

People say when I tell them I get out to the oval at 6am twice a week for fitness.

In fact I have been training with Lifeforce for almost four years now.

Why?  Those that wonder why have no idea of the benefits, some of which have even surprised me.

• Improved strength;  no more sore backs and I can even beat my husband armwrestling!

• Flexibility;  gardening among many other things is so much easier,

• Stamina;  After a ten year break I went back to horseriding, no problem,

• Circulation and Respiration;  Can easily run 10 kilometres,

• Rehabilitation;  Had to have knee surgery (not due to a fitness session injury!!!) and Liam helped me with post surgery exercises and a modified fitness program,

• Fellowship;  Have made new friends and regularly got together socially,

• Bragging rights;  Why not?!

• Mentoring;  We all encourage each other,

• Weight loss and shape change;  Clothes shopping is a lot more enjoyable!

• Improved Digestion;  This really surprised me and I wont go into the details,

All these things lead to a huge sense of self satisfaction and also both physical and mental well being.

Liam and his team have been enormously supportive, helpful and knowledgeable.  I couldnt recommend Lifeforce more highly and look forward to 6am on Tuesday.

Why wouldnt you?

….i’m still here!

Well, I’m still here. Pretty much says it ALL. In reality I enjoy it, see results and feel better for it!

…and eventually lost 22kg & have quit smoking! I felt so bloody good.

Before I called Liam I felt like I had 1 foot in the grave. Everything was an effort. Walking to the shed was an effort, i’d park as close to the shopping centre as I could because I just couldn’t do it.

On my 54th birthday I thought “ok, I have to do something otherwise I won’t make it to see my 55th”.

I remembered that I actually love exercise. We began personal training as well as some of the group classes and eventually lost 22kg & have quit smoking! I felt so bloody good.

The thing that stands out to me the most now is that before all this I seriously could only move 2 pieces of firewood because I had absolutely no no no no no no energy. Now I can move 2 tons of wood in an hour & feel good doing it.

It’s now been 3 years & I have gotten myself to a point where I can do my own training on my own. I am so proud of myself because I’ve learnt to do this on my own.

I will still get Liam back in the future but for now I have the confidence to control my own lifestyle & I know I am on the right track.

I perservered and eventually lost 18kg, felt great and could actually play with my grandchildren without gasping for air!

Four years ago I was a 58yr old, overweight, unfit grandmother. I was unable to run around with my grandchildren without being out of breath. I decided to do something about it and took up Kickboxing. After several months I joined Original Boot Camp’, I perservered and eventually lost 18kg, felt great and could actually play with my grandchildren without gasping for air! I did not find it easy but the camaraderie within the group was exceptional, that kept me going.

Due to some circumstances I unfortunately after almost 3 years I was unable to continue. Thinking I could do the fitness regime on my own, I tried but found without the group atmosphere and correct instruction I failed miserably. I regained those kilos and struggled again with my fitness. I’ve bit the bullet and rejoined “LifeForce Strength and Fitness Training” doing 2 sessions a week. It will be a battle to get back to where I was 18months ago, but it is a challenge I am prepared to win, knowing without the assistance from the instructors and the team spirit I would not succeed.

Lifeforce has given me the courage to challenge myself, Ive entered the City to Bay Fun Run for the last four years, Ive taken up the Bike SA Grand Slams and all because I gained the confidence through Lifeforce showing me that I can do anything I put my mind to & have fun while doing it.
