True Fitness

It was a privilege to see the great work that goes on behind the scenes at Alzheimer Scotland Kilmarnock.

Our TF event ended up raising an incredible £5,215 in aid of this wonderful charity.

Don’t worry if you missed out though, you can still make a last minute donation here!

Success isn’t always a PB, a transformation photo or a number on the scales.

Sometimes it’s turning up for the session you didn’t want to do.

Working around an injury rather than giving up.

Putting the biscuits back in the cupboard.

Getting your steps in even though it’s been chucking it down all day.

Putting your phone away and getting to bed half an hour earlier.

Getting straight back to normal after a bad meal or missed session, rather than writing off the rest of the week.

Most progress is built through the small decisions that nobody else sees. The unsexy stuff.

Things that don’t feel like much at the time, but they all count.

I love my job.

I get to spend my days with a great bunch of people, have interesting conversations and hear different perspectives from people of all ages and backgrounds.

We have great social outings and challenges, and every so often there’s that brilliant moment when someone FINALLY gets the thing you’ve been trying to teach them for weeks.

We help people become fitter, stronger and more confident - and sometimes that genuinely changes their life.

They also keep me motivated and accountable with my own training. There’s no hiding place as a coach!

There’s also a huge amount of satisfaction in having built a place where people genuinely love spending time, and knowing they trust you to keep them right.

It’s easy to forget what a privilege that is.

Oh, and free gym access whenever I like🥳

That’s a wrap!

Our target of lifting 1,000,000kg was well and truly smashed, finishing on a huge 1,293,513kg - or the equivalent of 100 double-decker buses! 🚌

More importantly, we’ve raised £3,470 so far between donations and raffle money for Alzheimer Scotland

It’s still not too late to donate though. You can do that here:

And there are still a few raffle tickets available at £5 per strip, with the draw taking place on Tuesday.

A massive thank you to everyone who donated - including those all-important raffle prizes - and of course to all of our members who turned up and put in a huge shift. It was a proper team effort and I’m incredibly proud of them all.
