Sarah Hannon: September 20 - Member of the Month

Sarah has been training with Key To Life for over a year and a half now and has been consistent with her exercise to compliment her running and other activities.


Sarah has been involved in 1on1 Personal Training in order to build her fitness base and has worked hard during every session and willing to step out of her comfort zone. Sarah has adjusted well to the home workouts during lockdown in order to continue to improve her health and well-being. Amazing effort by you Sarah on commiting to a healthy lifestyle during your time as a KTL member. We can't wait to see what is in store for you for the rest of the year.


Over to Sarah for her advice on Training, Motivation & Lifestyle.....


What is your favourite Key To Life Training Session and Why ?

My favourite session is PT with Rohan. I’ve known Roh for a long time but have only been doing one on one PT with him for about 18 months. Roh is a fantastic PT and will work you hard, but within your limits.


If you use any Key To Life recipes, what is your Favourite ?

There are so many good recipes but I only use one of them at the moment. On the days I work, I have the Choc Banana Breakfast Smoothie, usually mid morning. I have that in addition to cereal as it usually (not always) helps with the chocolate cravings throughout the day. 


What is your biggest motivation ?

My biggest motivation is to get back to being fit and healthy as I was a few years ago. Over the past few years my diet hasn’t been great and even though I run and go to the gym regularly, you can’t out train a bad diet. Also with a family history of cardiac disease, I need to make sure I’m not heading in that direction as well.


What is your biggest accomplishment you have achieved during your time with us at Key To Life ?

My biggest accomplishment has been to realise that my body can do anything, no matter what I look like. In the past year I’ve overcome some injuries and Roh has adjusted our sessions in relation to these injuries so that I can still train. In between lockdowns I was lucky enough to have 1 session back in the gym. I was dreading it because I’d been doing the zoom sessions with improvised weights. I really surprised myself that day. I worked really hard and came out of it feeling stronger. I felt so proud and realised the zoom sessions were working. I am much stronger and more toned than I was 18 months ago. 

 

What advice would you give to somebody just starting at Key To Life ?

The first step is the hardest. Once you have taken that first step, the rest will fall into place. Don’t worry about anyone else, this is about you. Everyone is on different paths, yours is just staring and will be fantastic.

Mindful eating is a practice that encourages individuals to pay full attention to the eating experience, from the moment food is prepared to the last bite. It involves being aware of physical hunger and satiety cues, savoring each bite, and recognizing the emotional triggers that often lead to overeating.
