What our clients say...
I am 64 years old and have type 2 diabetes. I joined Bodytrack after having met Stuart during a
Diabetes Research Study where he was the exercise consultant. He has worked with diabetic patients
and has an excellent knowledge of both the physical and medical issues involved. Exercise is the key to controlling diabetes; along with healthy
eating habits; so the motivation and workouts provided by Bodytrack are vitally important to
me. My symptoms have now stabilised and my Doctor has found a noticeable change in
both the control of my body weight and of my glucose levels.
It is a very friendly atmosphere at Bodytrack and because it is a small gym I get the full attention of my trainer at all times and this prevents the risk of any injuries from incorrectly performed exercise routines. The level of personal care provided is excellent. I get plenty of encouragement and there is a lot of variety in the exercise program, which is changed regularly to gradually increase my fitness level.
Daniel and Stuart are very professional and are very careful about matching the appropriate exercises with the individual’s needs. I have suffered from very severe back problems in the past but today I am performing sit-ups and back extensions without any discomfort what so ever. The back problems have completely disappeared since I started doing a properly supervised exercise routine at Bodytrack.
I feel that I am a much healthier and stronger 64 year old because of my workouts and I am able to participate in a number of sporting activities that I never attempted when I was younger. The only thing that Daniel and Stuart have never been able to improve is my golf swing. Now that’s a challenge!
