DHP’s Body Overhaul Challenge 2014 The start of February 2014 saw the commencement of DHP’s 12 week Body Overhaul Challenge. The Challenge was the first in what will be periodical programs to be run by the DHP Personal Training Department. The challenge took 36 members through a series of educational seminars, and personal training sessions. It certainly wasn’t an easy task, and I’m sure for most there were some tough times. Let’s face it changing your habits by developing new ones does not always come easy. But the results at the end of the period are OUTSTANDING to say the least! Our male runner up was Beau Devine with Craig Althaus taking out the winner’s title. Our female runner up was Suzanne Bell with Sue Althaus taking out the other winner’s title. It was truly amazing to see a husband and wife not only change their whole lifestyle together but to also be crowned the winners of the DHP Body Overhaul Challenge together. In total the whole group lost an incredible 171.40 kilos. Collectively the whole group also lost 971.50 centimetres. We have to say that we are immensely proud of the achievements of this group. The dedication shown was simply inspira- tional and we sincerely hope that we have made a change to the lives of these members; changes that they can take away and use for the rest of their lives. Here are some of the comments from members who took up the challenge: 1. “Thanks for the support I got during this challenge from the gym” 2. “There was so much to learn and so much knowledge given.” 3. “Loved the challenge feeling pumped and motivated to continue” At DHP we are dedicated to making a difference, so if you are keen to take the first step call the team at Dolphins on 38803729 and put your name down on our waiting list for details on our next Body Overhaul. Yesterday’s hero can return today DON’T know about you but I still feel like I did when I was in my 20s, it’s just when I look in the mirror reality hits back. For some of us, it’s when you start to play with the grandkids and the following day you can’t move or playing with them is just not an option any more. That’s when your body reminds you that you are not as young as you used to be. So is this it? Is this what we are happy to live with? We are old and we have to act old? No, I say, stepping down from my soap box and getting a little less dramatic. I work with chronically ill people with chronic heart and lung disease and I can tell you now we all benefit from regular exercise. Whether it’s a knee, hip replacement, chronic disease or you just haven’t moved for a while, you can and will benefit from regular exercise. Now I am not suggesting a marathon nor am I saying to get those footy shorts or netball skirt out from mothballs. I’m suggesting exercise suitable for you at a pace you can manage and slowly improve on. Yes, you do have to consult your doctor first, but once you have the all clear there is a plethora of choices in fitness classes and programs you can choose from nowadays. So for those of you who have fitness facilities at work, start today not Monday, today. Engage a personal trainer, walk in the pool or on the treadmill. Ten minutes of exercise today was more than what you did yesterday. Most of you will be goalorientated so set a goal i.e. (an easy one first) I am going to be able to walk up the stairs without having to talk in sign for a month. Work out with a friend, and motivate each other. Make a challenge at work or with a group of friends to be fitter, healthier and slimmer. Celebrate the positives of “dropped two sizes in clothing” etc. These challenges work as a starter, but for any long-term fitness program to work it has to be maintained. Remember, to put more quality in your life it’s a fulltime commitment. For those who are saying I can’t because I have chronic back problems, joint replacements etc., my answer is yes, you can. There are so many exercise choices you can access nowadays. Ask your doctor for advice on the nearest Heartmoves, Lungs in Action, Vietnam Vets, Lift for Life program near you. So what are you waiting for? There are places to see, golf courses to play and life to be lived … as the Nike brand says ‘Just do it!’ Dolphins Health Precinct has a wide variety of classes suitable for over 50s.
