So, with this in mind, senior journalist Leigh Hodgson and I decided that it\u2019s time to do something about our less than perfect fitness levels.<\/p>\n
Increased fitness and a healthy eating plan will also aid our health, and this is an important aspect.<\/p>
Luckily for us we have Unique Physique practically on our doorstep and co-owner and personal trainer Marius Wessels competing competitively in bodybuilding.<\/p>\n
This weekend sees him take on the Arnold Classic Africa 2016.<\/p>\n
With such great \u201cfitness\u201d credentials, who better to whip us into shape?<\/p>\n And we are lucky as not only will we be trained by Marius, but also by the other co-owner of the gym, Jean Bertillon.<\/p>\n We started our 12-week challenge by doing scary stuff like getting weighed and having our bodies assessed.<\/p>\n After the session Leigh and I knew that something had to be done about us, and quick.<\/p>\n So Thursday and Friday saw us hitting the gym \u2013 working on legs and arms on the first day and stomachs, backs and upper bodies on the following day.<\/p>\n On Saturday we could barely walk \u2013 but we are told that as we continue we will start to see results and the pain will lessen.<\/p>\n We can only hope.<\/p>\n Leigh and I have given Marius strict instructions that we don\u2019t want to look like bodybuilders, but we do, however, want to look good and be fit and healthy.<\/p>\n We are extremely excited about the transformation our bodies and health are about to undergo and will write regular updates on our progress.
