On the 5th September 2023 I signed up to JD Gym, Thornton-Cleveleys, and enlisted the support of Matty Schmid (Active4You) as my Personal Trainer.
The log will include all training related sessions at the gym, ParkRun and street runs.

It will also include other related activities such as Sports Massage sessions with Andy Tamaddon of Muscleworks Therapy and Stuart the Physiotherapist of Ashfield Physiotherapy. Plus, just for good measure, haircuts, tanning sessions, etc. As well as my regular personal training sessions with Matty, there are also guest personal trainers Emily and Brandon!

1545 Walk around JD Gym (with Brandon, assistant manager) and sign-up
24 August 2023
Starting pre-gym steps. Increasing daily walking to boost mobility ahead of joining the Gym in September. Starting with 4000 steps on day 1, then 5000 steps on day 2 and up to minimum of 10000 steps from day 3. 132000 steps over 14 days. Averaging over 9400 steps per day. A huge improvement from my previous sedentary lifestyle
