Gym Membership is perfect if you wish to train without a personal trainer, but still retain the personal touch - you are never completely on your own as we are always available to offer advice.

Contact call: 077383545<strong>13</strong> sallydoneganpersonaltraining@gmail.com www.sdpersonaltraining.com In the last two editions, we have looked at changing your eating habits for the better and how a personal trainer could really help in starting and maintaining a sensible and enjoyable exercise plan. This month I’d really like to look at why we should all take a step back and look at just how healthy we really are, and why it is so important. I’d like you to ask yourself a few questions. Am I doing some form of physical activity every day? Do I raise my heart rate to a higher level 3 or 4 times a week? Do I eat 3 healthy meals a day with a balance of proteins, carbohydrates, fruits and vegetables? Do I drink 2 litres of water a day? It would be great to think that most people can put a tick next to each of these questions, but the reality is that work, family, stress, tiredness and boredom all get in the way. The problem is that our bodies are not designed for the sedentary lifestyle we have become accustomed to, and over time, people have developed a pattern of eating more and doing less. This has caused rising obesity, increased levels of heart disease, strokes, diabetes and osteoporosis. There are some simple steps you can take to help you on the road to a healthier lifestyle. The first piece of advice I would give is to join a gym. Walking and in home exercises are great, but you need to try and get your heart rate up significantly 3 times a week. Remember, the heart is like any other muscle in the body; if you make it work harder it adapts and gets stronger and a stronger heart means a healthier body. At a gym, you can also try some more resistance-based exercises; this is essential for protecting your bones from osteoporosis. Exercise doesn’t have to be a chore, but the same old workouts all the time and lack of atmosphere in a gym can be really demotivating. So here is my challenge; come down to Cotswolds Health and Fitness Club and have a chat to us. Commit to a couple of months of exercise and healthy eating, and if you don’t feel fitter and healthier at the end of it, I’ll give you your money back! Remember, the gym here is different to others; we’re fun, professional and really want to help people enjoy their exercise and make a change for the better.
