BodyTech gave me strength where I never had it before (lower back).

It’s hard enough to get motivated to go to the gym let alone find the rhythm to be consistent in your training. When I started at Body Tech, I was a little concerned that the supervised circuit thing was just that, a circuit, I guess it cungered up thoughts of jazzasize and Richard Simmons.
How wrong I was, the circuit and workout card system was a real revelation in itself. At BodyTech you really can’t escape being pushed, the circuit to me is like having a personal trainer on every machine, not only is the weight adjusted without you knowing it, your technique is closely monitored and your progress noted on your workout card.

Not before too long I was introduced to supplementary exercise machines, when this happened I felt like I had graduated to the big time. It was then that I realised the smart people at Body Tech had managed to take me unwittingly through a system that gave me strength where I never had it before (lower back) although I now use free weights I believe it was the supervised 30 minute circuit that gave me the overall strength and tone I am enjoying today.

6 years of supervised training at BodyTech has taught me so much about my body and safe exercise practice, fear of a caring trainer’s eye spotting not so productive form encourages me to try to employ perfect exercise technique every time I workout. The strength and knowledge I have achieved at this club has given me the confidence to push myself harder than ever before.
