I am one of those January statistics, 'new year, new me' type ladies. Although technically I signed up on the 31st December!
Really my intention is not to look as round in the middle as I did while I was in Malta last summer. I don't need to loose weight. At 5ft and 56.5kg my BMI is fine, it's more vanity I guess... and fitting more comfortably into those cute denim dungarees I bought from Topshop at the end of last year.

With my membership I was offered an initial induction and then every 4 weeks I'll have a refresher. In the induction I was given a routine that'll help tone my midsection hopefully. The routine goes as follows
5 minutes on the treadmill SPEED 5/6 INCLINE 3 max.
Pull ups on the straps at different angles 3 reps of 10.
Squats from sitting 4 reps of 10.
Then 4 reps of 10
Reverse Crunch, V Sits, Plank to forearms, Plank ball roll (pushing a medicine ball off a wall), Toe Touches (Feet in the air, touch a medicine ball to your toes).
I then finish with 5 minutes on the bike, but sometimes I'll leave that, as I have a big hill to walk up to get home!
So far I'm managing 3 times a week for the last fortnight, usually as soon as I'm in from work around 5/530, so it's just starting to get a bit busier.
Fingers crossed I start to get the same enthusiasm as this woman!
