Me and Daniels Fitness Group

Having been a Personal Trainer since 1999 I have enjoyed training a wide variety of clients, all of them with different needs, goals, personalities and ideas on what a healthy lifestyle should be. I became a member of the team at Daniels Fitness Group (DFG) just after qualifying when Anna Daniels (Director of DFG) encouraged me to use my skills and knowledge to train clients in need of health and fitness advice. Over the years I gained confidence and experience and moved on to leading a team of trainers and managing one of our busy corporate gyms in London before relocation forced me to relinquish the job I loved. Initially supplying Personal Trainers to private clients, the company has expanded, changed direction and now focuses on providing corporate health solutions. One thing remains the same though – every client is unique and so is our service.
I'm glad to say I'm still working for DFG from my office at home and look forward to our daily phone calls wondering what my next challenge will be...

New Challenge

So, here it is, my next challenge and what an exciting one! DFG have teamed up with fitness equipment providers Technogym to launch their brand new product the mywellness key - I have just received mine in the post. This innovative tool aims to encourage the nation to become more physically active and ultimately healthier.
It looks a little like a pedometer and is worn on your belt but does so much more than just counting steps – it measures your level of activity throughout the day. The key sets you a goal to achieve which is reached by filling the white lines on the display screen: as you become more active the goal is adjusted and becomes higher therefore ensuring you are constantly challenged.
The key comes complete with a usb adaptor allowing it to be plugged into your computer for charging and to download data. You can also plug it into any Technogym equipment during your workout to record your activity. The software package is comprehensive and shows just what you have done and when – there is also information on diet and other lifestyle factors.
My key is charging at the moment – can’t wait to get started…
