The planned dream African wedding with 10 weeks to go, Kerry Anne needed to look great in the wedding dress, but also on the beach as well. Determination couldn’t be more in abundance. Already a regular gym attendee, Kerry Anne was a little unsure as to how much more Personal Training with me could add, the changes were quickly noticed by her friends and work-colleagues. As for her husband to be…lets just say the honeymoon started early

10 weeks on, despite the odd outburst of “Freddie you bastard” her metamorphosis was complete, a beach body with defined abs emerged.

PS She also looked and felt great in her wedding dress!

• 7.5% body fat loss
• 7cm reduction of tummy
• 5cm decrease of waist

With a staggering 7 previous personal trainers Kate was hesitant in choosing the next one. However, after seeing the quick changes in her pudding-loving husband who had started personal training with me Kate made the plunge.

“I’d like to have my waist back, but you only have 9 weeks before the wedding, Are you a magician?”

Kate worked extremely hard in each of her sessions 3 times a week and saw a 10% body fat reduction and a 6 kg weight loss, and... Hey Presto the waist appeared!

• 4.5 kg weight loss
• 6.5 cm loss from waist
• 8cm loss from tummy
• 9% body fat loss

Matthew started training with me largely to use my challenging fitness sessions as a means of de-stressing from the frenzied nature of his work With a determination to stick to training times however busy, “Beast me” was his usual greeting and then one day, casually and calmly announcing “By the way, I’m getting married in 12 weeks”

Despite his love of tiramsu and strawberry trifle, by the wedding date Matthew looked in terrific shape with a waistline decreased enough to have a large portion of pudding and still have room to breath.

• 4.5% body fat loss

Body-conscious Abena could not avoid coming to the gym any longer. The big day looming ever closer. Abena had to start working with the “skinny fit folk” in the gym,

Starting dress size 18/20,( more 20/18!) by her wedding, Abena lost 2 dress sizes but best of all her proud husband-to-be could now cuddle her and for the first time touch his fingers behind her back!

• 2 dress sizes
• 3.5kg weight loss
• 3cm loss from arms
• 10cm loss from tummy
• 5% body fat loss

Well planned and organized Mary gave herself approximately a year to get in shape for her big day. Steadily we reduced her body fat and waist size. Trimming, toning and butt firming were all on the wish list, each achieved one by one.

The first dress fitting went perfectly, all goals reached., The second dress fitting a few months later, the dress needed taking in again, it was too big!

“Freddie I love my new body, its perfect, but can we keep it like this”, Mary pleaded on behalf of the dress fitters

Already lean and a size 8 most would have asked “Why do you need a Personal Trainer?”

But in the run up to the wedding, goals can be so much more than size - more energy, more definition, solace and peace of mind are also important.

Emily wanted to be leaner, more toned but we had to ensure that in achieving this her body fat did not fall too low, nor did she become too thin. We constructed a diet alongside the training programme (including to her delight the occasional burger)

Emily lost 4% body fat, and gained a set of “baby abs” giving her a “model-like” slenderness and elegance as clearly shown through her beautiful wedding pictures.

A big Paris wedding to plan and 9 months to go, sceptical Sinead asked me for the best route to success in achieving the body she wanted for the wedding.

“See me for the first twelve weeks, use the information I give you to continue working by yourself for the next 12 weeks, then see me for the last twelve weeks”

4 weeks in Sinead started to notice the difference, so too did her husband-to-be. The sceptical frown changed to a beaming smile, Sinead was always early and ready to train, eager to get on with the next workout.

The initial plan was to stay with me up until the wedding date. Now married, she’s still training with me!

• 7% body fat loss
• 9cm loss from tummy

Kim wanted personal training for more than a wedding as it wasn’t until the following year, she wanted to get trim for herself. Determination and eagerness to learn showed through and Kim worked as hard as though she was getting married that year.

Each session Kim took on board the information from my Personal Training System and regime that we had devised and in time and with her own motivation was able to use an easy to follow structure on her own.

Look at the following years result!
