Fat loss tip

Nutrition is obviously really key when it comes to fat loss. One thing Colin was able to take on board to achieve this great 12 week transformation was that after he'd eaten his dinner he wouldn't eat anything else (he would always eat by 6.30pm).

Colin Before and after his 12 weeks of training at Revlution

The key is to understand that each meal should give you enough energy to go about your daily activities and until you need to eat again. How much energy do you need to go to sleep at night?

Also by not eating 3 hours before you go to bed, you will sleep much better as the body is not working hard to digest food. This is paramount to general health as well as fat loss and muscle gain.

Good luck,

Rob

The Paul Morris 250m Rower Challenge
This month saw the start of our latest challenge. Over 50 clients have taken up the challenge with the only disappointment being the Morris brothers. They are bringing up the rear and are in the last two places.

The top 5 places are as follows;
Men

1) Brett Alegre 41.4 secs
2) The Stig 41.6 secs
3) Armin Forstner 42.0 secs
4) Juddy 42.2 secs
5) Steve Watson 43.6 secs

Women

2) Emily van Eyssen - 50.3 secs
3) Annie Howie - 51.9 secs

4) Sarah Moorjani - 53.8 secs

5) Rebecca Rawlinson - 54.4 secs

There has been a lot of conjecture about the identity of the Stig and all that we are at liberty to say is that he is definitely not one of the trainers!

The Revolution is expanding!
We are delighted to say that we have just agreed terms to take on the unit next door. This will double the space available and will be a great way to improve our service even further. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all our clients and trainers for helping us achieve this expansion. This has been particularly pleasing given the economic climate over the last year and a half.

Congratulations John!

Here are a couple of pictures that were taken at John's latest amateur boxing match. He fought at the Alexandra Palace on Saturday 23rd May 2009 against James Gardiner from Benny's ABC, and won with a unanimous points decision.

John fought at light heavy weight and weighed in at 80.8kg on the day. This was John's best performance and win to date.

Rob's 2009 London Marathon

I had been told by friends and clients that running the London Marathon would be an amazing experience, and it proved to be so.

I felt great through the half way stage and was given a massive lift seeing my family at around mile 15, then all of a sudden with the temperature rising and my body aching I hit the wall at mile 20. However all the months of preparation and training paid off when I finished my first marathon in a time of 4 hours, 0 mins and 52 seconds.

Most importantly, thanks to the generosity of clients, friends and family, I raised approximately £3,500 for Hove YMCA . This money will be helping young people who are either homeless or from broken homes to get back into jobs and apprenticeships.

New addition to the team

Revolution is delighted to have Susan Brown join us as our newest personal trainer! From Philadelphia in the USA, she truly is an all-action American.

She has an incredibly impressive background of coaching hockey and lacrosse, as well as a degree in sports science. She took her personal training qualification here in London with Premier. Her first week has finished with her signing 3 clients who are sure to benefit from her amazing range of knowledge and energy.

We've been looking for a high quality female personal trainer for some time, and in Susan I'm confident we've found just that!
