Posted on: 14 Sep 2013 - 14:45For me being a Personal Trainer is the greatest 'job' in world. It does not feel like 'work'. Getting paid for something I genuinely enjoy doing - exercise and fitness is my hobby - and crucially making a difference to people's lives. It is a great feeling knowing I am helping, supporting and inspiring clients to change their lives and to live more active and healthy lifestyles.

I wanted to share with you an inspiring exercise moment from training with one of my regular and inspiring clients this morning. We were training in the ‘outdoorgym’. The training session...
