So it's now 3.x months in with the personal trainer at Activ8 and the rest of the team. Time for a review I guess as well, since well my assessment on Wednesday to see if I'm as crap as fit as I was when i came back from the US.
Easy answer, not likely. Didn't hurt I took out the full package and that was not cheap. But then again when I lived in Japan and had to do all my first cancer the chemo stuff left me 8K USD out of pocket. There was a huge refund, but it comes down to how much do you spend on your health.
My totally easy answer is as much as it takes. Why because you can have huge amounts of money stashed aside for the things you want, but how can you spend any of it if you health is crap.
Even easier answer, every dollar/cent spent on your health is a good dollar. It breaks down to even easier. If you can't walk somewhere to see/do something, then your healthy is wrong. I know. I've had an underlying issue with Arthritis for so long it stopped me from many things. Feck the cancer, this was actually the weekly issue.
Since working with my Trent (My PT from Activ8) i'm on the least amount, basically nil amount of arthritic drugs ever. I still maintain a daily intake of some non medical druges, the best i have found is Procasmine from USANA. Not cheap, and i won't advocate for them, but it seems to work for me. I also know that losing a few kilo's and working all my joints in the right order is the best thing ever.
And that is why you need a PT. An expert in how to work your body. Its possible you can get crap ones, but lucky for me I didn't.
He has me working out on some exercise and doesn't go off to answer some FB message or other, I can see him checking every move I make and looking from all angles to make sure I'm doing it correctly. Ps. his counting along with mind is Shite. We just work it out that somewhere between it all it was a good effort! And yes I work in banking but at 7 am my brain is not working.
So, do you get a personal trainer. My easy answer is yes. If you hate going to the gym and been given a circuit to do, then get bored. Chop and change. Get a PT, they make it so much more interesting. I never know what is going to hit me each time and I fecking love it.
Photo's to come, but looking so much better for it.
