πͺ Meet Pat and Mary! π
Pat and Mary have been coming along to our free PARiS gym sessions at Houldsworth Village on Wednesday mornings for several months β and theyβve been supporting each other every step of the way.
Pat started coming first, before encouraging Mary to join him. Since then, theyβve motivated each other, met new people and built a routine that has helped them stay consistent with their training. π
And Mary is already seeing some fantastic results! After just a few months, she has noticed improvements in her shoulder mobility and strength, making everyday movements easier. One great example? She can now lift a full kettle of water much more easily β something she had previously struggled with. βπͺ
It just goes to show what a difference a little support, encouragement and consistency can make in a short space of time. Alongside the physical benefits, having the opportunity to come to the gym, focus on movement and train alongside others can make all the difference.
π PARiS is a 12-month exercise scheme for adults of any age living with long-term health conditions.
Our PARiS team is here to provide the extra support and encouragement you need to stay or become more active, build confidence and work towards your health and wellbeing goals.
Well done, Pat and Mary β keep up the great work! ππ
