This week has been a super busy week (as always!) with lots of personal training sessions - bouncing and running - and some group classes too including a Rainbow Guides session earlier today which was great fun with 15 young girls. The Fitness 10,000 Challenge numbers haven't increased greatly this week. I did, however, have a meeting at Loughborough University to discuss the World Record Bounce-athon planned for July 3rd - the day of the Olympic Torch passing through the town and campus. We have decided to source 300 mini-trampolines (from where I'm not yet sure!) and sell tickets to the event and bouncers will get to take their trampoline home with them after the event - plus one of my Bounce-Back into Shape DVDs too! So next week, I shall be busy trying to source these trampolines, planning the event in more detail and spreading the word to local people. You can find out more information here.
Two new afterschool clubs start next week at Robert Bakewell Primary School and Redlands Primary in Sileby so they will be great fun, plus more personal training sessions and the regular Loughborough Bounce Class on Thursdays at Charnwood Golf Range 7pm. Book online here
Enjoy your week and remember to keep bouncing!

Client Success Stories in Loughborough this week!
This week has been a VERY busy one and perhaps more tiring than usual. I started my week with 2 days of filming new fitness videos for my new online personal training service which is due to be launched in June. After several hours of filming back to back fitness workouts I was shattered and that was just after day 1. I then had 3 back to back PT sessions to do and then thankfully an early night before I had to do the same again on Tuesday. All in all though, I enjoyed being in front of the camera and ticking this off my to-do list for the new project which aims to help hundreds of people nationwide get fit with my ongoing support. Tuesday, we completed filming and in the afternoon I started the new Sutton Bonington Primary School afterschool Bounce club with 15 excited children, followed by the Sutton Bonington Primary School staff Bounce Class with 15 excited teachers! Both classes went really well and will continue every week now during term time.
The rest of the week has been filled with lots of personal training sessions with some new clients. Current PT clients have been seeing fantastic results as they enter in to their 2nd 6-week training programme. Some have also adopted new food plans with my help and have seen impressive weight and fat-loss. I'm really proud of all my clients who stick to their training programmes and food plans and it's those clients that see the best results. It also really makes me happy that I can offer them the advice that will help them achieve their results and be there to see the smiles on their faces when they achieve their goals. Long may the success stories continue!
I continue to work tomorrow, Saturday, with clients and meet potential clients who need my help. I am also working hard on a variety of different articles as content for the new online PT service. If there is a specific fitness or food topic you would like me to write about then please contact me and I shall do my best to cover it.
Next week will be similar to this week - lots of personal training, Bounce classes and a very important meeting to discuss the Bouncing World Record Attempt happening on 3rd July in Loughborough. I shall also continue my marathon training, which is so far going really well, by watching the London Marathon on Sunday and being inspired to run my longest run to date 16 miles later that afternoon.
Enjoy your week and let's hope the weather cheers up so we can get bouncing outside!

Bouncing Becky to organise World Record Breaking Olympic Bounce-athon
Good evening, all. I'm back from Kids Camp & suprisingly not too tired! I think a sensible daily routine of early morning run, kids camp and 8 hours sleep each night combined with a healthy diet helped me stay on top form for the 2 weeks. 100 children added to my Fitness 10,000 Challenge later and I'm glad to be back in the world of onesixeight: fitness.
Next week, I shall be filming my new Online Personal Training videos ready for launch in June. (Excitement #1) The videos will be suitable for a wide audience and in particular beginners who struggle to find time to exercise and want something to do at home with my help in motivating and getting the right technique. I'm hoping that the Online PT service will help a good few people before the start of the Olympics and those people will therefore count towards my Fitness 10,000 Challenge. Longer-term, I'm expecting this service to attract hundreds of people who want a low-cost and convenient way to get fit with my expertise as a bonus. Watch this space for more details.
Excitement #2 - this week, I have been given the go ahead by Guinness World Records to organise an attempt to break the World Record for the most number of people bouncing on mini-trampolines! If I hadn't already mentioned this it was because I didn't want to get too excited only to be told that they didn't want us to attempt the record. I found out on Monday that the current record is 287 so we shall be aiming for 500 bouncers to take part in the event held at Loughborough University on July 3rd as part of the Olympic Torch Relay celebrations. The day is going to be a super busy one for me as I shall also be leading an aerobics style routine to 2000 local school children at the University's new Holywell Stadium as the Olympic Torch is passed around the pitch. Upto 2500 people will be added to my Fitness 10,000 Challenge that day which means that I only have another 1000 or so people to find before the Olympics! I am super excited and can't wait to get planning the event this week - watch this space for more info. If you would like to take part please sign up on the Facebook event page here.
Excitement #3 doesn't really help my challenge as such, but it may inspire you to take up a new challenge this spring/summer. I have decided to take on the Boddington Marathon in Gloucester on July 1st. This marathon is a 12 lap course around a scenic park and strangely I am really looking forward to it! I have some new trainers to help see me through the increase in mileage and a positive attitude to help get me up early in the morning so I think I'm good to go! Training has actually already started and shall continue tomorrow with a 14-mile steady run.
Next week, I have a new afterschool bounce club for children and a bounce class for teachers/local residents launching at Sutton Bonington Primary on Tuesday - lots of people already signed up for both groups so I'm sure it will be a huge success. The Loughborough Running Group continues with the return of interval training! The group members were telling me how they secretly love these fast sessions and how much they benefit from doing them, so I feel less guilty about shouting at them now! Finally, lots of PT sessions and my usual Loughborough & Newtown Linford classes.
I think that's about it for this week. To keep updated on all the latest news and goings on - sign up for the onesixeight: fitness monthly newsletter here
Until next weekend - have a good week and keep bouncing!
