10 f**king years โค๏ธ
Today was a first for me
For the first time since opening Platform, I've officially been training someone for TEN YEARS
In fact I've been training Ann Burke longer than we have been called Platform ๐คฏ
I don't think when we first started training together either of us imagined we'd still be doing this a decade later.
Ann walked in terrified and I'd love to say it was my dashing good looks and charisma that disarmed her but it was the fact I offered her a cup of tea ๐คฃ
She was mind blown, she thought you couldn't drink tea in a gym ๐คฃ
But she did and she's probably had thousands since ๐คฃ
We've so many incredible memories together and in truth we have both grown through life together
Some personal favourites for me are when she did a jaegerbomb in the gym with her son James ๐คฃ
Or when she got Stevie in a headlock on the gym floor ๐คฃ
Businesses spend a lot of time talking about transformations, weight lost, PBs, results etc
And all of that stuff is brilliant.
But there's something really f**king special about someone choosing to train with you, week after week, year after year, for a decade.
Thank you for trusting us with your training for all these years Ann โค๏ธ
Here's to the next 10 ๐๐ฅ๐ฆ
P.s if you could just talk about child birth a little less that would be great ๐คฃ
