I was finally was able to find the motivation I needed to reach my goals.
Constantly travelling and moving around for work and uni, I began to think it was impossible to maintain a healthy diet and get in any exercise. Travelling to and from Sydney daily led me to use the excuse of being to tired to go for a run or go to the gym which led to gaining weight and becoming quite unfit. I tried different kinds of diets but always lost the motivation to keep going and never got the results I was hoping for.
Joining Beachside in June led to a significant change; I was finally was able to find the motivation I needed to reach my goals. Unlike any previous gym memberships, I had Kieran to push me at training even when I told myself I couldn’t. Not to mention the early morning reminders to get to class. Participating in the 8 Week Challenge was perfect to help me set goals and teach me how to achieve them as well as how to prepare and enjoy delicious, healthy food whilst still being able to shred the kilos. I am now able to understand how to maintain a healthy diet and adapt it into my hectic schedule. The morning and afternoon classes made it easy to get my workouts in and almost impossible to skip a class.. No more ‘too tired’ excuses for me.
In less than 3 months with Beachside, so far I have lost over 10kgs, significantly decreased my body age and seen a drastic improvement in my fitness levels. My biggest surprise has been in my new found love for my old enemy- running! Something I thought that would never happen! I can’t thank Kieran and the Beachside team enough for their support, I know that with Beachside I will be able to continue and achieve even more fitness and body goals in no time.
