I booked a health and fitness assessment with Darryl and got an interesting report on my current state of health. It wasn't pleasant reading. However, Darryl's thoughtful, sensitive, patient, kind but honest approach has helped me achieve goals that I never thought imaginable, for example, I used to be a sugar addict and although I have exercised for many years I did not take my health seriously enough, Darryl has helped me to change that. His exercises are playful but challenging, he finds innovative ways to motivate me when I am finding it difficult and he ensures that health is the primary objective.
Darryl's Primal Play classes and one-to-one sessions are always fun but at the same time building strength that can not be gained from a gym. I also find it inspirational to know that he left his very well paid city job behind to follow his passion to improve people's health and if he had not then he would not have touched this many lives.
Here are a few of the changes that I have gained in the last 3 months:
A body fat% reduction from 34.6% to 27.9% (35% body fat is the level of morbid obesity, 30% is the clinical level of obesity) so dropping below this is a significant benefit to my health.
I am almost 44, however my metabolic age has decreased from 48 down to 38 years old. A 10 year reduction in 3 months.
In terms of weight which I don't really focus on, this is down from 11 Stone 9lb (74kg/163lb) to 10 Stone 8lb (67kg/148lb), a significantly difference in terms of the clothes I am wearing and also in the positive comments made about how I am looking now.
