When I started the K2NY 'Red FM Fit Factor Challenge' in February 2009, I weighed over 21 stone and was extremely unfit. My reasons for taking this challenge were to lose some of the weight I had gained over the past few years and to get back to a good level of fitness. From the introduction meeting with Pat, I really got a positive vibe from the whole establishment at K2NY.

My first session was in early February and I never knew how much work could be squeezed in to just 30 minutes! It really was an eye-opener. Never before had I witnessed such intensity in training, yet still enjoying it. All the staff at K2NY really make you feel welcome and make the training so much easier. In the 12 weeks I spent on the program, I always enjoyed and even looked forward to my sessions at K2NY, which really says a lot for the staff /trainers as the training is extreme.

There were always words of encouragement and advice when needed, and also that extra push needed to make me push that little bit further. In the 12 weeks, I lost an astonishing 5 stone. This blew me away! I never thought that this was possible. I would never have been able to do this without Pat and all his staff at K2NY.

It really has changed my life. You hear that phrase thrown about way too much these days, and when I first heard it on arrival at K2NY I was a bit skeptical, but I wasn't long realising that this is truly a life changing experience.
