Hello One and All
I hope this finds you all fit and well.
We are now coming up to the final third of the year, and as most of you already know I received a phone call a couple of weeks ago from Prestige Awards that I had been chosen as Wales Personal Trainer of the Year out of 450 other top and highly respected PT's within the country.
To receive this prestigious award at the age of 62, two and half years after lifting the UK Fitness Trainer of the Year for 2023-24 is a huge statement for the elder generation of trainers out there, and a bold statement that it is never too late to reach the absolute pinnacle within your chosen industry.
For those of you who just happened to miss my radio interview with Bronwen Lewis from BBC Radio Wales as part of her morning show, all based around not just my longevity within the fitness industry but mostly about me winning the Wales PT of the Year award, please take a listen on BBC Sounds link which is Bronwen Lewis - Welsh Word: Efydd - BBC Sounds
where I am on between 14.30-20.40.
As nearly all of you know I am now into my fifth decade within the Health and Fitness Industry, this represented a huge personal milestone for myself.
Four decades of highs and lows, thankfully far more highs, and if it wasn't for the likes of my absolutely tremendous clients I wouldn't be typing this out.
I have been extremely fortunate to have seen so much and transform so many individual's lives over the four decades, I have won nearly every major fitness honour during that time, funny enough the only thing missing from my achievements is the King's Honours for services to Health and Fitness, the years of joy and satisfaction being a fitness ambassador for the community is still something that I will take with me until my time is up on this earth, you never know but someone may just nominate me and something may well arise during my fifth decade.
One thing I forgot to mention is that I am now officially PT, Strength and Conditioning plus Nutrition Coach to Dainton Evans, who just happened to become Muay Thai World Champion at the age of 14, now 17 he is entering the adult arena, six weeks of training behind him and he is already not just stronger and more powerful but has also gained in bulk and size, he only went on to win his most recent fight which was held last Saturday (08th) by TKO, a great start to our training and an absolute pleasure to take, and here's to a long working relationship.
The tutoring with British Weight Lifting within sports and education establishments has been going well so far and being used on a as and when required basis, have so far tutored within Bath College, Aberystwyth University Gym and am now looking forward to new challenges towards the end of this summer.
I have two final slots available if anyone is looking on requiring the services of the official top trainer operating within the UK, and for the most conventional Personal Training service which is second to none within the industry, please contact me and start transforming your body with a totally positive way of mind...
And finally, take great care in this brutal heat, take on board plenty of fluids and remember to take in small sips and no large hits as this will dehydrate you much faster.
You only get one body, look after it!!!...
Have a great day one and all.
Take Care and Stay Safe.
Ged
