If you are like me you then you are naturally sceptical of converts and zealots of all types. Perhaps after reading this you think I am one. But the bottom line is this; if you are feeling like you are in bad shape and there is no other option than just sitting around waiting for things to get worse, then there is another choice if you want to take it – and people are willing to help you. Higher Level Training is a nice small gym, with a really personalised approach to helping you get where you want to go. Although the gym is small it has excellent staff, nice non-poser members, and enough equipment, programs and classes to please any sensible person. A couple of specific recommendations I would have are:

(1) Book in for some personal training sessions, especially when you are starting out. They are very motivating and provide excellent feedback on your progress and goals.

(2) Do the Mini-me program. Exercise is only half the issue if you want to get into better shape, and the sooner you deal with the eating side of the equation the sooner you will start to see results. Doing this in a group format (like Mini-Me) was much more effective for me than trying to do it alone.

Back in April 2010, I decided to join Higher Level Training as a result of a back injury. Adam designed a specific rehabilitation program to strengthen my back and it’s supporting muscles.

Lost 12kg in 12 Weeks!

With his care, I was able to live relatively pain-free and return to normal activities. A couple of months later, we decided that I was strong enough and ready to face the challenge of losing weight. With the Higher Level teams’ support, I joined the 12-Week Mini-Me Weight Loss program. This involved an intensive program of exercise and food management in a group situation.

The journey proved to me that I had the determination to succeed! It was fantastic to meet like-minded people with similar goals. I was given the opportunity to make new friends, get fit and learn about life-long eating patterns for optimum health. I always made excuses for my weight such as….post-pregnancy, too busy…..I was over it!

The time had come for me to take control of my health and weight for the first time since my children were born. My starting weight was 67.6kg at the beginning of the Mini-Me Weight Loss program. Today, I am proud of my achievements. I have managed to lose 12kg and currently weigh 55.6kg. I have successfully maintained my food regime and continued exercising on a regular basis. Attending the gym is now part of my daily routine. Thank you Adam and the Higher Level Team – I may even dare to wear a pair of bikinis this summer!!!

Lost 17kg in 12 weeks!

I was on the mini me program for 12 Weeks. During this time I lost 17kg my jeans went from 34 to 30. I use to wear Large T-shirts now I wear Medium.

I chose the mini me program at Higher Level Training because it works, I have done the mini me program before and had some good results, this time my results were amazing.

Before joining Higher Level I was feeling good but felt that I was carrying around some extra weight that I was unable to get rid of. I had average fitness and was weighing about 96 to 97kg

My goal when I started was to lose about 10kg. The first thing that I noticed when I began the program was that our weekly shop became $20 a week cheaper due us not buying Chips, Chocolate, ice cream and other junk food.
We also stopped having take away meals and didn’t eat out as much. So all in all we were about $50 a week better off while I was taking part in the program.

After doing the program I just feel really good, I’m running and cycling faster than I ever have and I’m managing to keep most of the weight off.

But I am starting to get a bit tired with everyone that I know coming up to me a telling me how good I look.
Give it ago, It’s simple and informative it will save you money and will cause you to change your life style for the better, you also get to meet a great bunch of people all in the same boat trying to achieve weight loss and increase fitness.

Made some new friends lost 17kg, dropped two jean sizes all in 12 weeks awesome.

Compared to 2 years ago I feel heaps happier with myself, my running is better and my cycling has improved out of sight. And it is a real buzz to put on clothes that I would not have been able to put on 2 years ago.

Lost 13kg in 12 Weeks!

I have been up and down with my weight over the years.

After the 12 weeks of training with the team at Higher Level Training 40yrs old feels better than 30!

I am less than 80kg, my blood pressure is awesome and my fitness is according to Adam insane.

Having the 12 weeks to commit to was the best part for me, once you make your mind up to do something, nothing can stop you.

I went from drinking Alcohol every night to 1-2 times per week maximum.

I feel young, healthy and strong and I love the fact that none of my old pants fit me.

If you want to learn how to change your body for good, then you have to jump into the next course.

12 weeks of your life will change the next 12 years of your life!

Lost 20kg in 12 Weeks!

All I wanted was to feel normal!

I was unhealthy, unfit and felt tired all the time with no energy.

12 Weeks later I feel empowered, full on self confidence and full of energy.

I have never been a runner and now running is just something that I do with my new body.

I lost 20kg in 12 weeks and now I have my body back!

I have been able to lose the weight I’ve carried around for 10 years. There is no quick fix and I know that healthy eating and exercise is the key to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Thanks to The team at Higher Level Training I have the tools to stay in shape forever.

Lost 23kg in 12 Weeks!

I thought 1kg per week would be a great achievement!

When I started out the 12 weeks, I had not done any proper exercise, ever. I tried gyms and hated them; I never enjoyed the feel of the places and never felt motivated to train.

Well things have definitely changed for me I set a goal at the start of the 12 weeks to lose 1kg per week but after dropping 4.5kg just in week 2, it seemed like I needed to adjust my goal. 6 weeks came and I had already reached 12 kg lost.

Having the support of the group each week and the group training sessions was amazing. Jumping on the scales and watching the number fly off was the greatest feeling. I knew that with the tools the team at Higher Level Training were giving me the weight would keep falling off. The work that I was putting in was all well and truly worth it. When I stepped on the scales at the end of the 12 weeks with a total loss of just over 23kg, I was pumped!!

Lost 14kg in 10 weeks!

I just wanted to say thank you. I have lost 16kg since starting to work with Adam. His broad knowledge and encouragement have guided me to amazing achievements along the way.

I am astounded with what we have achieved in such a small amount of time.

When I first started the higher level weight loss program I was hoping to maybe lose 10kg but did not have any really expectation of achieving this. Based on past attempts and experiences I did not think I could achieve this goal.

When I found out what was involved within the program I was a bit overwhelmed with the amount of information and support we got along with the program, I was amazed and knew I was in the right place to achieve my desired results.
To my surprise when I stuck to the food plan and got my food groups in for the day I was never hungry.
Not only did I end up losing the 10kg, but in 10 weeks I had lost 14kg!!

I felt concerned that when the program finished I would put weight back on, but it just has not happened.

Higher Levels program has taught me to really fire up my metabolism and to eat a balanced nutrient and energy rich diet. I still have my days off and my treats and never feel like I am missing out on what I used to think was so important.

Lost 10kg in 12 weeks!

I am now in control of my food and health.

I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to do the 12 weeks when I did. I am no 10kg down and my fitness has never been better. The final workout I did with Adam was the hardest hr of my training life, but to look back at what I actually just survived I feel proud of how fit and healthy I have become.

I have 4 young kids and life is crazy and keeping my weight off was always a challenge. I was never a priority and taking the time to look after my health and fitness just never seemed important.

Higher Level is awesome; I went out every week for date night and still lost 10kg!!

I have found the balance that works for me and I feel like I now have the tools to stay on top of my weight forever.
If you are not making time for your own well being now, then commit to your training now.
