INTRODUCTION<br />
<strong>The</strong> birth of<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Kilted</strong> <strong>Coaches</strong><br />
Having known one another from our paper-round<br />
days, fate would have it we’d find ourselves both<br />
becoming personal trainers <strong>and</strong> working from the<br />
same gym in Perth many years later. Our friendship<br />
naturally grew from there.<br />
Through many whisky-fuelled chats we realised we<br />
shared the same view of the fitness industry:<br />
that people were often following unsustainable<br />
training <strong>and</strong> eating regimes in a quest to become<br />
healthy – leading to an increase in stress, a decrease<br />
in results <strong>and</strong> mood, alongside far too many<br />
program relapses.<br />
We spent over a decade preaching to our personal<br />
training clients about the<br />
importance of happiness <strong>and</strong><br />
‘allowing for life’.<br />
