Molly Has Lost 35lbs and Gained a New Lease of Life

Published on // Written by

 “Before I started at PP my confidence was at an all-time low. My broken arm had set me back a lot and I’d comfort eaten through the whole thing, causing a negative effect on everything in my life. I was not in a good place.”

Molly battled through the fear of re-injuring herself to lose 35lbs and gain a new lease of life. From feeling self-conscious to self-confident, Molly quickly turned things around after joining PP.

What made you start personal training?

I joined Performance Project in 2017, after I had badly broken my arm just above the elbow. I had gained a lot of weight during this time and after going back to my regular gym I was so worried about hurting my arm again that I just stuck to cardio classes, such as spin, and didn’t see any results.

I joined PP to build strength in my arm in a safe, supportive environment, but mainly to lose weight and regain some self-confidence…. Read More

What made you start personal training with PP?
More like “who made me start personal training”? It was Sam, my husband, and fellow PP-er.

We were due to move to a new area, and after some investigation, Sam found PP. Before we moved, he sent the link by email to my work. I deleted upon receipt. I thought “Super, another gym membership that we won’t use”. I didn’t want to pay for another membership that wouldn’t be used and constantly feel guilty for not going. … Read More

What made you join PP?

I think I had reached that stage where I was tired of putting in a lot of time in the gym and not seeing results. Don’t get me wrong, my cardio fitness was OK but I couldn’t get my head around why I wasn’t seeing any changes in my appearance, weight loss, or strength. I thought I knew everything when it came to working out because I love sports, I have always played sports, I work in sport etc, so I just assumed I could teach myself and train myself. … Read More

Helen drops three dress sizes and finds confidence again

“I’ve lost 23lbs, dropped 3 sizes in clothes and I’m feeling happier”

Helen joined Performance Project to get healthier and fitter for her family. She’s certainly done that.

What made you join PP?

I’ve always struggled with my weight and insecurity and have made several attempts to lose weight with Weight Watchers, Slimming world, and Personal Training.

I would like to think that I’ve reached a sensible age where I know my strengths and weaknesses and can hold up my hands and say – “Ok, I need some help” – and then dig deep, and get on with it.

A couple of friends had shared a few of Performance Project’s posts, and at first, I didn’t feel very motivated or interested, so it took a little while before I really looked into PP and saw the 30 Day Trial that they offer.  I said to my partner that I’d like to give it a try, to have somebody kicking my bum and to finally get lean. Hopefully leading to a healthier and happier person, partner and mum…. Read More

What made you join PP?
Last year I was going to turn 55 and I was finding this quite difficult to get my head around. When I looked in the mirror, my waistline was thickening and my chest was ever expanding. I felt old and matronly and my self confidence was slipping away. I had been away on holiday and I needed my husband to help me zip up my dresses which were quite frankly too tight and too small. I was either going to have to accept that this was now me or do something about it.

Sam’s Dropped 40lbs & Got Incredibly Strong After Just a Few Months

What made you start personal training at PP?
I have been going to different gyms on and off since my late teens but after a bad knee dislocation in 2014, my fitness levels plummeted and I gradually put on weight.  I would start a fitness programme but it wouldn’t last long and I was constantly losing a few pounds only to put it straight back on.  I’ve never had any form of personal training as I always felt I knew what I was doing.  I had subscriptions to all the health and fitness magazines which I believed was a better and more cost effective alternative.  When all of these programmes failed (at least long term), I started to search for something different. I didn’t want a personal trainer who would just regurgitate everything I had already read in Mens Health and tell me to stay away from carbs etc etc.
I wanted to do weights and get strong, I wanted to push sleds, I wanted to throw weighted balls and do HIIT, basically I wanted everything.  PP seemed to fit the bill and after meeting with Jerome I wanted to sign up there and then.  There was no hard sell.  All there was was a confidence in what is offered and a willingness to let people find out if PP is for them.  Straight away Jerome gave both myself and my wife (fellow PP member) some nutrition and lifestyle advice and emailed through some really helpful information.  This was without any commitment from us and just shows the level of genuine care that Jerome (and all the staff at PP) have. Right from the off, I just knew this was something different.

What made you start personal training at PP?

I have suffered from back problems since the age of 11 and had 2 major surgeries at 16 to insert metal rods the entire length of my spine. After wearing a plastic corset for 5 years and then recovering from the operations, I shied away from exercise with the fear of hurting my back – little did I realise, the damage I was causing with being overweight. It got to the point that my doctor recommended I lose a few pounds, so I started my weight loss journey…. Read More
