Our super hero!

Hello, I’m Amelia and I wanted to share my story with you in the hope that it can help you too.

 

I’m 74 and have had arthritis in all of my joints for the past 30 years and it’s become chronic over the past 3 years.I began to lose the strength in my hands and drop everything, my overall strength was failing, luckily I was already in a routine of going to gym.

I’ve been going to see Callum and the team for approximately 20 years. I was doing some Pilates, light weight lifting and some balance work, but not really enough to make a difference to my advancing arthritis.

One day I realised I needed more help, actual strength training, so I talked to my instructor Callum at Fitness Success and he helped me by designing a different program focused just on weightlifting, balance and building up my legs (as I’ve had two knee replacements).

Since he’s put me on this program to meet my needs, things have changed that much that even doctors and my chiropractor have asked me to share my story in the hope that I can help other people in a similar situation.

People I meet say I’d love to be able to play with my grandchildren or be more active, but I can’t.

I know they can, as I have changed things, and you too can get a much better quality of life.

This particular studio specialise in getting you mobile and stronger. They care about you and all the instructors are there to really help you.

I wish you all the best in health and happiness.
