Changing lives… Emily’s fitness testimonial

Really looking forward to this year of Personal Training. It’s made a huge difference to my life in the past 12-14 months!

Emily, North Melbourne

Matt’s fitness testimonial

My trainer at REALM is by far the most committed and passionate trainer I’ve ever had. I find his friendly yet firm manner really motivating, and I look forward to my sessions with him.

My first month of personal training has been rocky, as I’ve had some unexpected pressures to deal with – but with REALM’s support and encouragement, I stayed focused and actually exceeded my monthly goal!

REALM’s main man (Anthony Cutajar) regular motivational tips and nutritional guidance also played a part in my achievement. I believe that he sincerely cares about my fitness and wellbeing.
Thanks again,

Matt, Fitzroy – September 2009

Adrian’s fitness testimonial

After many years of bad eating habits and lack of exercise, my weight increased along with the size of my stomach.! My wife’s phone call to Realm Training has really changed my life…

With their help I have changed my diet, my weight has dropped through the 80kg barrier & my fitness has improved. 12 months ago I could never have imagined that I would be able to run 5 km without stopping.

My trainer pushes me to do a bit more each week, and now I am seeing the results. Without his help I would never have been able to get to where I have gotten to now.

Thanks, now that my Stomach has shrunk in size, I feel and look much better.

Adrian, Thornbury

Roy’s fitness testimonial

With my shift work, lack of exercise and bad eating habits I started to pack on the kilos. Realm helped me to turn things around with his dietary advice and training technique. I am now feeling great, have more confidence and still benefiting from Realm’s guidance. If you are after a dedicated fitness trainer who pushes you hard, while having a laugh Anthony is your man.

Roy, Reservoir

Kylie’s fitness testimonials

After 3 years of trying to shift 5kgs Realm made all the difference for my motivation. Whilst I have always enjoyed keeping fit I have learned how to stay focused and take it to the next level. With a holistic approach covering weights, cardio and diet I have been able to find the right balance to reach an all over fitness, improved strength and a more refined body shape.

By keeping track of my progress I did not lose site of my goal and was reminded regularly what I needed to do to stay on the right track.

My personal trainer was patient but also his own high standards for optimum fitness inspired me to stay focused and aim high to reach my ideal weight. He showed me the right way to lose weight and adopt a healthy attitude. I now feel much more aware and in control of my well being, and body shape.

Thanks!

Kylie, Thornbury

Vanessa’s fitness testimonial

The most valuable thing that personal training at Realm has taught me about health and fitness is the importance of having the right mindset and how it plays such a vital role on whether achieving your goals is a reality or not. One of the things, upon many, that I gained from my training sessions is that once you’ve made the decision to change both phisically and mentally then attaining your goal is possible. I have successfully lost weight by having an incredibly knowledgeable trainer who has educated me in becoming the person I want to be.
Thanks for making the journey enjoyable.

Vanessa, Thornbury

A pleasant alternative to a sweaty, stuffy gym

I joined Realm’s Fitzroy bootcamp after coming back from a rather indulgent trip overseas to try and get back into shape. After about 4 or 5 sessions I could already feel drastic improvement in my fitness level and a general increase in my day to day energy levels.

As I live the life of an average 21 year old with a few too many big nights here and there, Realm’s Bootcamp really helps to ease my guilt and help me maintain a balanced lifestyle! I would recommend Realm to anyone as a pleasant alternative to working out in a sweaty, stuffy gym-get out there and push yourself amongst the elements!

Steph, 21, Fitzroy North

Luke and Emma lost 20kg together!

Emma and I love the Fitzroy Boot camp with Realm! We were struggling for a while to not only get the motivation to go to the gym through the week, but to put in a proper workout while we were there. Since we have started going to Boot camp though, motivation is no longer an issue.

It is a lot more fun training with other people, and a lot more interesting than just running on a treadmill or Cross-trainer by yourself at the gym.

Brett saw results immediately, and then went on to lose 10kg in months…

I started with Realm approximately 7 weeks ago and it’s one of the best things I could’ve done for myself. It had been years since I’d done any ‘real’ exercise and I’d let myself go big time.

Even after such a short amount of time, I’ve started to trim down, get fit and feel so much better about myself (physically and mentally).

There’s no way I would’ve been able to do the hard work by myself – the group fitness sessions are the ultimate motivation. Thanks for setting me on the right path Realm!

Fiona is staying motivated and trains regularly, keeping her fit and healthy!

This time of year I usually completely drop off any form of exercise, claiming to be too busy or too tired. BUT Realm has kept me motivated, interested and keen to exercise regularly. I am really thankful for this as I feel fitter and healthier than I have been all year. I am really looking forward to continuing my training in 2010 with Realm Training

Fiona, Clifton Hill

Alistair found the push he needed…

Realm gave me the push I needed to get a kick start to a healthy lifestyle. The variety of exercises and training methods kept me interested and motivated and expanded my knowledge on keeping fit outdoors. Who needs a gym?
Alistair, Brunswick

Elisha found motivation and started to enjoy exercise again…

I lead a fairly active lifestyle and used to go to the gym at least four times a week. However, I started to get bored with my usual fitness routine and felt like my fitness level had begun to plateau. As a result, I found myself less motivated and started to cut down on my exercise.

Realm’s bootcamp Fitzroy sessions have been fantastic for reigniting my enthusiasm, keeping active and providing that little bit of extra motivation required to improve my fitness. The training is really varied (and also lots of fun). Even after only a few sessions I started to notice a big improvement in my strength and cardio levels!

Elisha, Nth Fitzroy

Thanks to Realm’s fitness bootcamp right near Northcote, Anna found the motivation to exercise in the morning…

I have really enjoyed the sessions, and if I wasn’t moving to Sydney I’d cancel my gym membership and just do the classes with Realm! You always made them fun, motivating and mixed them up. You are doing a great job! Now I like exercising in the morning!

Anna, Northcote (now Sydney!)
