Steve completes 2 Personal Training Sessions per week and we do a mix of Boxing, Strength Training and HIIT to provide variety and keep Steve motivated and enjoying his sessions.

We acknowledge the hard work and commitment he has put into his workouts to create healthy habits away from the studio. Congratulations mate on being our December Member of the Month 

Over to Steve for his advice on Training, Motivation & Lifestyle.....

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

I like variety which Rowan provides every session. I particularly like the boxing sessions as it is a great way to get a cardio workout without being stuck on one exercise like running or cycling

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

I have not used them but do read them. I have found my diet has shifted since I joined to less red meat, more fish and fresh fruits and vegetables

What is your biggest motivation?

Ensuring my retirement is long and I am physically able to enjoy it

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

I have never been much interested in playing sports or exercising but having retired late last year I decided I needed to get some real exercise into my lifestyle. Notwithstanding all the ups and downs of Covid lockdowns (and no gym sessions) my overall strength and fitness has improved markedly and in particular my "dodgy knees" have much improved so I am no longer troubled by them - that's what all the squats have been for!

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

Communicate with your trainer, let them know what you like and don't like. The first month or so is likely to be challenging with hard work and sore muscles but stick with it - your body will thank you for it
