Fitbitch Academy Two Graduates...




After four weeks of fun, a new batch of Fitbitches have graduated ready to take on the fitness world. With Search & Destroy, Pebble Purgatory, Stairway to Heavenly Bum and Legs and many more FB signature boot camp days, everyone has come through having been transformed. For some it's been weightloss of up to 13lbs, for others it has been going from never having exercised to doing sprint intervals, hill running and boxing ...Well done all you Fitbitches and I will see you next time for Round Two!

Sister Act Part II


Hannah and Belinda celebrate after completing a sprint finish at Hove Park Run. Mind you, they did have the promise of a fantastic Graduation Brekkie to motivate them!
Make up artist Belinda lost 23lbs and 58cms after completing two boot camps, while sister, Hannah, 35, a new mum lost 36.5cms and 9lbs in four weeks.

Sister Act


Today, saw the two sets of sisters who have just graduated from Fitbitch Two run their first Hove www.parkrun.com. As I write, the times haven't been published but they don't need to be to tell how well they did. Not one, not two but all four of them managed to pull off an impressive sprint finish.
All of them have come from vastly different fitness levels - Belinda's a fitness virgin (or was), Hannah's just had a baby and Mel and Jo are returning to fitness but have been transformed during the last four weeks. Well done to you all!
