    Hate gyms but want to get fit?

    Hate gyms but want to get fit?

    This is not an uncommon story. I will call him Bob. Bob’s doctor told him unless he starts exercising he will probably have a heart attack. Bob told his wife Mary. Mary was shocked. If Bob died what would she and the family do……..actually she did not think that first. Initially she didn’t want Bob to die, of course but then she did start thinking about the future. She told Bob, get exercising! Like the doctor said!

    The problem was Bob hated the idea of a gym. He needed to lose some weight before he would step inside a gym with all those fit and fabulous people in their lycra and with their gleaming smiles! Bob wanted to be Super Bob, with muscles, a slim waist – nothing tastes better than slim, after all!

    So he had to run, pound the pavement a few times a week, lose 5kgs and then sign up to the gym, that was a plan! Unfortunately once he started running there were several problems Bob faced. One was his joints, they started getting really sore, especially his knees but also his right ankle. And the right calf as well, that was aching all the time. Plus and worse still after losing 2 kgs in the first few weeks he had stopped losing weight. It was very demotivating so his initial zeal for the task at hand was waning. Plus he now also felt hungrier so he had been using a protein shake Mike at his office had recommended but that bloated him a bit. So instead of the shake now after his run he was eating a bagel with his latte at Starbucks but that was ok because he’d burned off 387 calories on average on his runs. And there was no way a bagel had 380 calories like the calorie counter on his app said!

    Bob was concerned though and so was Mary. There’s no way they wanted him to have a heart attack so he needed to find some way of losing some more weight without stepping into a bloody gym!

    I really don’t know what Bob ended up doing but Bob’s story is a common one. A doctor says lose weight, the patient doesn’t really know how and most doctors/general practitioners do almost zero training in exercise and nutrition so are useless at offering advice that works. The patient does his/her best but usually fails.

    I could find some links to rising obesity and the risks of serious health issues as a result but you know this. And with lockdowns reducing exercise frequency with gyms, sports facilities and even beaches closed, creating reductions in vitamin D exposure and creating more sedentary behaviour there is massive concern for the wellbeing for more and more people.

    As a fitness professional I decided to do something for you all. I created an online fitness solution that can be completed easily at home, one that is available in 3 levels of intensity and offers nutritional coaching as well via videos. This solution is the result of my 20+ years in the industry and will help you gain greater flexibility/mobility, lose weight and get leaner, fitter and stronger. The feedback I have had from those that have signed up is amazing – they love the 3TRUTHS solutions!

    The solutions were created during our lockdown in Thailand. We could go out to exercise but gyms and beaches were closed so I invited some buddies and we got using resistance bands in a local park and had fun along the way. Here’s a picture of us in action at the top of the website here.

    As a gift to you all and because it is Songkran next week, the start of the Thai new year, I am offering a 20% discount on all the solutions, 1, 2, 3, 6 and 9 month with the resistance bands or without (you can buy your own or you may already have some). My bands are factored in to the prices and we will deliver them by DHL/TNT etc anywhere in the world! If you’re unsure what level you want to buy there is a 5 minute fitness test you can do, a video explaining it is here on my website.

    The 20% discount is limited to the first 20 people that sign up using the discount code NO-GYM-REQUIRED
