Ray is set to take his training to the next level


Ray is an inspiration, having already lost 20% body fat with my help and fixed his high blood pressure we are preparing for the start of the challenge by working on flexibility and core strength as the majority of training will be fat burning over the ten weeks.

Ray is 63 years old and was in a bad way before he started to exercise seven months ago, I would challenge anyone to come and try a session at the same intensity that Ray works out at now. But it has not always been like that we started off very basic in the gym, walking on a treadmill and doing three or four simple resistance exercises along with stretching.
Currently a typical training session looks like this
Monday – Full Body resistance focusing firstly on hamstrings and secondly on shoulder strength
Wednesday – TRX training, kettle bells and 4 to 5 three minute boxing rounds with focus pads
Ray also does one or two cardio sessions a week on his own, and follows a simple diet.
One of the most challenging things we have achieved was to get him running after twenty years or so of not doing it! He currently runs on level ten comfortably on a treadmill.
