Something So Good - Mac's Story:
"The whole team at Freedom Leisure make me feel welcome and I believe that these sessions are making a significant difference to allow me to feel alive and still kicking."
I joined Freedom Leisure to help me manage my health and maintain my quality of life.
I have been managing aggressive prostate cancer for many years and have undergone extensive treatment. Thanks to ongoing medication, I am still alive and kicking. However, at the age of 73, I know I need to counter muscle wastage and maintain my flexibility, strength and stamina.
To support this, I regularly attend Body Pump classes and fit in Aqua Aetobics at GL1 Leisure Centre - Gloucester whenever I can.
Body Pump is excellent for building and maintaining muscle strength, and I can adjust the weights to suit my ability.
Aqua Aerobics benefits me in so many ways. I work as hard as I can to improve my muscle strength and stamina, while the movements help with joint mobility and flexibility.
I've even tried Zumba! The choreography keeps my brain active as I try to keep up and get it right - most of the time!
What makes it even more enjoyable is the fun and supportive atmosphere. The whole team at Freedom Leisure make me feel welcome, and the sessions genuinely help me feel healthier, more positive and more capable.
These classes are making a significant difference to my life and helping me stay active, independent and still kicking.
You don't need to have a medical condition to benefit from such enjoyable and rewarding classes.
Thank you to everyone at Freedom Leisure.

β¨ Sometimes the smallest things can make the biggest difference. β¨
One of our amazing members recently shared a simple but powerful idea: try something new, positive, or different every day.
Why? Because when confidence feels low or motivation is hard to find, it can be easy to forget just how much you've achieved. Taking time to reflect on the new experiences you've embraced can be a powerful reminder of how far you've come. β
One of those experiences was attending a group fitness class - and being met with the warmest of welcomes from other members.
It's a reminder that progress isn't always about massive milestones. Sometimes it's simply about showing up, stepping outside your comfort zone, saying hi to someone new, sharing the fun, and giving something a go.
So here's a challenge for you: try something new today. It could be a fitness class, a new activity or simply starting a conversation with someone you've not spoken to before.
You never know where that first step might lead. π
