 Progress Report for Bxxxx

 Bxxxx is a 68 year old female, Bxxxx started a 1to1 Personal Training programme in September 2008, at that time her weight was 204lbs and her measurements totalled 195.5” (see table below for break down). Her BMI was 32.3 which falls in the obese categorisation.

We started training once a week for 50 minutes at a time; this was increased to 2 sessions per week in March 2009.

  When we initially started training Bxxx found it difficult to maintain a constant work rate for longer than 5 minutes at a time, without feeling out of breath and increased pain in her right knee, overtime we have strengthened the leg and knee area and Bxxx is now able to undertake squats and running without suffering any knee pain, she is also able to maintain a high intensity work rate for the full 50 minutes.

 On the 27th October 2009 her weight was 178lbs, a weight loss of  26lbs, which is a steady weight loss across the period of training, Her total measurement are now 173.25”, reflecting a loss of  22.25” (see table below for break down), and her BMI has fallen to 28.8, which has moved Bxxx into the Overweight category. Although Bxxxx has made massive strides forward I feel she could have achieved a little more to reflect the hard work she puts in during the training, we have discussed, and agreed that Bxxxx will keep a food diary, so we can analyse her eating habits in more detail. (update: I weighed Bxxx this week and she has lost an additional 3lbs, in 1 week, since keeping a food diary).

 In July, I introduced walking into the programme on a regular basis, with the intention of building up to some running, Bxxxx has done exceptionally well with this, and we now walk/run once every week, Bxxx is now completing a brisk 35 minute walk followed by 1.4km of continuous running, and we increase this every week, which is superb.

 Her functional fitness has improved immensely, so activities in every day life have become easier and more enjoyable, like keeping up with the grand children, gardening, training her dogs etc.

 Overall all I am very pleased with Bxxx’s progress, and more importantly I know she is happy with her own achievements to date.
