Body of 2008 - The Runners Up

Charlotte Ord 26,
Personal Trainer from Guildford, Surrey

Having suffered low self esteem and a very poor self body image, becoming a trainer has enabled me to gain a much healthier perspective of my own body. In March this year I slipped a disc in my back very badly and went from training regularly to being completely immobile for three months. I inevitably put on weight, lost muscle tone and was in so much pain I could not foresee a return to training. My heart sank.

In June, however, I made a tentative return to training, and started taking Promax Diet, Thermobol and ZMA in my bid to regain my former fitness and physique. Neither myself, my GP or my chiropractor could quite believe how quickly I made progress. Three months later I am leaner, stronger and fitter than ever. I have run my first half marathon, become certified as an advanced kettlebell instructor and can overhead press a 20kg bell! I’ve retained my place on the 1st lacrosse team of one of the leading clubs in the country and my recovery after training is better than ever. I recommend Maximuscle products to all of my clients to help them achieve results in the quickest possible time, just like I did!

Claire McKenna
22, Osteopath from Harpenden, Herts

At school they used to call me stick insect, something some women may feel proud about but I on the other hand loathed this term and in 2008 changes to my life ensured I’d never be called this again...

Despite the pressures of final year studying Osteopathy at University I started running and swimming daily and in May took part in my first ever triathlon. It was one of the most rewarding and satisfying days, to know I had achieved the fitness to succeed and do well at something I’d never done before.

I was a keen rugby player since the age of 14, I always felt that my slight frame had let me down. Everyone else on the team seemed so confident with their own strength yet I would always seem to shy away from contact, not believing in my own ability. Thanks to Maximuscle Promax and my training I look forward to the 08/09 season with more passion for my rugby than ever and can’t wait to see how much my training and diet changes have all paid off!
