Hi Guys,
We love to share our amazing stories and Simon is no exception 😊 Enjoy our 60 second interview.
Hi Simon,
Firstly, well done on your achievements so far at Fitterbody Men. A fantastic start to the new fitter you – you should be really proud of yourself. I personally have loved watching you grow with confidence week on week and you getting fitter, faster and stronger. And last but no means least, your body shape changing dramatically!
Tell me something about yourself:
I am Simon from Northampton, aged 44 and Managing Director of an independent recruitment agency in the town. Married to my wife Jeni and proud dad to my daughter Chloe.
You have done amazingly well so far, but why is it that you wanted to make a change in the first place:
I first decided I wanted to make the change after returning from holiday in September 2016. I looked at myself in the mirror and did not like at all what I saw and after originally enquiring about Fitter Bodies earlier in the year, I decided enough was enough and that I had to do something to change for the better, so I committed to the six week 5am class and have never looked back.
So what results have you seen so far?
The main thing I have noticed is my shape and muscle definition have improved greatly and most importantly my strength has doubled, and some, since starting the boot camp last year. I am able to lift weights I never thought possible, when I started I could only squat 50kg, now I can squat 165kg, bench press started at 40kg, now I am able to press 95kg.
My cardio fitness is the best it has been in 20+ years. I would never have got these results training on my own in a gym.
What is it you enjoy most about Fitterbody Men?
The 5am group are a great set of lads and the trainers, although they push you hard, are your mates as well and only want to help you develop and improve each week. The togetherness in the boot camp is great particularly when the FBM World Cup challenges kick in
How much better do you feel about yourself?
I feel great and am able to wear clothes I never had the confidence to wear prior to starting boot camp. It gives you a real boost being able to go out and not have to worry about any MOOB action going on!
What’s next for you?
What’s next? To bench press that elusive 100kg, I will do it! Also attending the Marbella boot camp in February 2018 has meant I now have to focus hard and really push on my cardio levels.
If you could make one recommendation to someone considering joining Fitterbody Men, what would that be?
You have to want to do it for yourself, it’s a huge commitment getting up 3-4 times a week at 4.30am, rain or shine. It is also a big financial commitment, which gives you the incentive not waste your money.
Believe you want to change for the better and go for it. All the guys in the group are great and you will soon settle into a routine. You have to realise that you will never, ever get the results you get at FBM by attending a mainstream gym.
Simon is an awesome guy, who I know will continue to grow in his fitness journey 😊
If you want to be our next Simon, drop me an email and we can arrange a couple of taster sessions for you.
