Fitness training for 'more energy and confidence'
Posted by Concept2 News on the 21st of January 2010
A mum-of-two who embarked on a fitness training programme with Sharron Davies has described how her subsequent weight loss has left her with more energy and confidence.
Sarah Brooks, aged 34, lost nine pounds and is back in her size ten jeans after taking up healthy eating and regular exercise under the advice of the former Olympic swimmer.
"Exercise and healthy eating has become part of our routine now," Ms Brooks told the Times.
She added that though it is not always easy to find time to exercise, it was worth making the effort.
"Everybody has been so complimentary," she said. "We've got more energy and I feel more confident."
Ms Davies added that taking more exercise could help people feel more in control of their life, leading to a better mental and physical outlook.
Regular exercise is one of the best ways to reduce stress, according to the NHS.
