‘In all honesty, I am not a gym fanatic but I like looking good and feeling healthy especially with my demanding job and a hectic lifestyle in Johannesburg – everyone around me knows that. So when one of my friends heard about BODYTEC opening in Sandton, the first person she thought of was me – that’s my kind of training!

I went for a trial before taking up the membership and haven’t looked back since. The personal trainers are so inspiring and look great. The exercise gets tougher as the sessions progress, but wow, the feeling afterwards is great and you actually feel the difference. But what makes me go every week is the personal attention I get from the team. I love the fact that they call me by my first name and they know how to pace me. I like that I am supported and encouraged to go for it and to not give up… I even practise on my own so that I can come prepared and ready for my next session.

Thank you very much. You have saved my poor soul from killing myself at the gym! I can see the results in the month that I have been exercising with you guys.’
