Strength training can be LIFE CHANGING in a number of ways. There are host of benefits that we will cover throughout this article that may just tempt you to jump off the treadmill and start lifting some weight!
For a beginner, the idea of walking to the weights section to lift things up and put them down can be a daunting task and honestly we get it, we really do. In fact, that is exactly why we originally created our epic Induction system. We focus on creating programs filled with exercises that will benefit you and bring you closer to your goals while ensuring it’s a regime that is sustainable going forward. The two personal training sessions are there to show HOW to execute the given exercise to get maximum benefits and minimise the risk of injury. Everyone that walks through our doors at Tomfit is offered the chance to take advantage of our trainers knowledge and experience to get the perfect kick start to their training.
