Be Well

After my second child, I found myself heavier than ever and in regular pain from hypermobility.  I was disappointed with myself.  My osteo wrote me a referral to see Lucy for personal training, to support strength building and a bit of social time for me.  As a Mum of 2 it’s hard finding time to work on my own physical and mental health.

I have been seeing Lucy just once a week for about a year, and have gained strength, stability, and confidence.  I am better able to manage my chronic condition and am much more aware of my nutrition.  My incidences of pain are greatly reduced, meaning that I can play better with my children and say yes to more social events.

I wanted to feel more confident for my wedding day.  I looked at a few different places before finding Lucy, and the private one to one training was exactly what I needed.  I could really focus on just moving better without needing to worry about who else was there, or how I thought I looked.  Lucy took time to get to know me, my goals and motivation, so that when my wedding day arrived I was standing tall and strong all day.

I have enjoyed my training so much that I have started making the transition into a larger specialist gym.  I never thought that would be me!  Training with Lucy helped me find confidence, strength and a new family who I know will continue to support and encourage me.

I have trained with Lucy for 2 years.  I remember when we started – I couldn’t jog 20m without needing a rest.  I wanted to be able to keep up with my daughter in the playground, and get away from being “that fat Mum” sitting on the bench.  Lucy helped me build my confidence and find out what I can achieve; coaching me on movement, building routines, self talk and the importance of rest.  I came off my blood pressure medication, got myself out of pre-diabetes and feel so much better about who I am as a person and a mother.  I even go for runs on purpose sometimes!

Lucy has opened up my World, and I am now excited to pursue powerlifting and strongwoman sports.  I have caught the bug big time and couldn’t be happier.  I am so grateful to Lucy, and so proud of myself.
