“I never thought I needed a PT. PTs are for the people who never work out I thought. That was probably my first mistake. I have a busy job but I have always made time for working out as I love having little goals throughout the year, and without question it also helps my mental health.

Doing a Half Ironman had always been in the back of my mind, but I guess I filed it into the bucket of ‘just too hard’ as I’m something of a slow plodder, that is until Covid. With less travel on the cards, a fear of Covid kilos and a desire to shift the infamous ‘5 pounds’, not to mention the mental stress about, I knew I needed a fitness programme more than ever just to survive it all. Having read Louise Minchin’s book on Triathlons, I had begun to realise having a PT was key. But nothing could’ve made me realise the impact.

Not only does Georgina have an amazing attitude, she really spends time getting to know you, listening to your weekly commitments, understanding the training bits that you don’t really love (the bike in my case), and making the programme fit ‘you’. Having that accountability is amazing – not only do I have a plan worked out by an expert (and I constantly realise now how many mistakes I was making), I find myself suddenly putting in consistent training sessions that stretch me and really improve my performance. Like, I’m putting in numbers that I didn’t think were possible and, without huge changes in my diet, I am way more toned and in shape than three months ago. The weekly catch-up call is also great – I can be honest about what worked, what didn’t, and we tweak as we go. Still lots of training to do, but I’m really enjoying the planning and the process itself.

Overall, it has improved my body confidence and mental fortitude – I am actually beginning to believe more in myself and my ability and that too impacts my training mindset in a positive ‘bring it on’ type of way.”

Personal Training

Sometimes you need some extra motivation, or a little more guidance, if you aren’t seeing the results that you’d have hoped for. Whether you want to change your shape, get fit for a special occasion or reinvigorate your lifestyle, personal training with Georgie will steer you on to the road to success.

For me personal training isn’t just about exercise, I also take a holistic approach and consider everything that could affect your body. In order to achieve peak fitness and enjoy robust health, the ‘holistic’ approach attempts to improve all of the sub-systems i.e. it is a more whole, balanced approach that addresses the musculoskeletal, digestive, immune, hormonal, nervous, cardiovascular and the detoxification systems of the body. Every variable is considered to ensure that your body is running like a well-oiled machine. Age, weight, height, fat percentage, stress levels, calories consumed and burned – even your sleep pattern is considered to get great results!
