Detox Rocks!
Three juices into the seven day detox and I’m feeling remarkably fresh,
no hunger pangs as such so far, just finished the first training session
and still in one piece. Victor thinks that the exercise has gone to my
head and I’m making words up but I’m assuring him ‘pangs’ is a
legitimate word! MWellness in Santa Eularia is the Gym that not only
makes the delicious and nutritious juices that will be feasting on for
the next seven days but also the place that Brian Talbot, chef/personal
fitness trainer, will be putting us through our paces over the next 12
weeks. As you can see from the before pictures, some of us need a bit
more work than others oh and before anyone asks, yes i do sometimes take
my top off in the sun, I’m Scottish it takes me the month to go from
blue to white!
Todays work out, according to Brian, who trained as a chef under Gordon
Ramsay and who, we are pleased to report has none of his aggressive bad
habits, is a light one! Tell that to my thighs and calf’s, which, as i
am writing this, gulping down my 6 o’clock juice, are throbbing! Some
basic boxing moves, some circuits and then upstairs for some TRX, if
that’s light we are not looking good for normal to heavy!
Victor has been running regularly for the past few months so he is in
good shape and Jaimie is 21, enough said! Between us we huffed, puffed,
sweated but, for the most part, smashed today’s session. After a sauna
and ridiculously cold ice shower (yes, I am aware that it is meant to be
ridiculously cold) we chill out in the MWellness lounge and talk
tactics. While 12 weeks is not a long time, lets see if we can get
through the next seven days without eating first! Game on…
