I am a 56-year-old male who’s done lots of endurance exercise, particularly cycling, but feeling demotivated coming out of lockdown, decided that I ought to start doing some resistance work to strengthen my frame. Cue a phone call to Sarah for help...and to add to the challenge… I’m registered blind as well! My number one concern when using a PT for the first time was that they would come along and bring a uniform set of exercises and apply them to me whether they worked or not. Sarah has had to tailor everything that she does with me to accommodate my needs and my lack of sight and she has done it absolutely effortlessly. In the four months that we have been working together I have come to thoroughly enjoy the sessions. Sarah is constantly upbeat and motivating and the work we do is challenging but appropriate. She has a sixth sense and can tell if I’m a little sore and will adjust the workout accordingly but also somehow seems to know when I’m just being a bit of a wimp and therefore will push me through! She has lots of equipment and the sessions are always different and never ever boring. I thoroughly enjoy the sessions and they always leave me feeling as though I have worked out - there is always some form of variation that makes something new ache! She is punctual and prepared to be flexible if my schedule means our appointments have to be shifted. I cannot recommend Sarah highly enough. As for the results… I recently completed a 100 mile bike ride which would ordinarily have left me with a sore neck and shoulders for the next couple of weeks. This time, thanks to my strengthened upper body and core I have had no discomfort whatsoever. Well done Sarah and thanks ever so much!
