So, a fellow trainer Alex Pearson posted this photo today and it’s brilliant. If you have ever seen the movie Trainspotting, it might ring some bells!
Being a personal trainer is not exactly what people think! We get up at 5am to train clients from 6- yes people actually want to train at 6 am.
We often spend many hours reading and researching in order to give our clients the best exercises for their injuries and niggles.
We sometimes eat out of Tupperware and spend time preparing food. Sometimes we are too busy and grab a sandwich or live on protein bars between clients.
We often work late- people want to train after work as well but in between that, we worry all the time that we are not working hard enough, that we are not serving our clients the best way we can, that we don’t have time to train ourselves and what if our clients leave.
But overall, we absolutely love every singe minute- because the people we help become our family, our friends. We spend more time together and chat more than we do with our childhood friends, partners and family. But we wouldn’t have it any other way.
I wake up each day excited about how the day will pan out, feeling incredibly proud of progress and when we get something right. And laugh and smile and feel amazed that the little studio has become such a great thing!
And at 9.30 when I’m ready for bed, it’s so I am prepared 
to do it all again the next day.
So, if you contact me past 9pm- please don’t be offended if I don’t reply straight away. I can always get back to you at 5am- but I don’t think you will appreciate that so much!
