			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>A Very Limited Special Offer For YOU!</h1>
<p>We have acquired 11 sets of Tanita body fat scales.   &#8220;What’s this and why would I care? I hear you think&#8230;..!<a href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=BPWYT8MTR7LPA" target="_blank"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1093" title="boot camp classes berko scales" src="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/tinita-scales-300x273.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="273" /></a>&#8221;</p>
<p>These are the type of scales that we and large national gym’s use in their business to do their health assessments and to track weight loss and body fat progress. If you’re into your weight loss or health and fitness they are a very important tool to keep you focused on your fat loss goal.</p>
<h2></h2>
<h2>Track progress, write your own diet plans</h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">We use them to track progress, write diet plans and gain critical health information about our client health status and weight loss progress.</p>
<h2>Understand your body Fat %</h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">These scales will enable you to track your weight, (yes i know Keith, i don&#8217;t know if you&#8217;ve noticed but any scales will do that!), they will measure the % of your body that’s fat and the % that’s muscle. This is far more important than knowing how much you weigh as lean tissue weight’s 3 times as much as fat! If your training hard this will enable you to track the changes in body composition. This is very important as some people do not lose weight when training but they do change shape and change body composition.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">You can also get fat % readings for individual parts of your body such as your right leg, left arms or torso.</p>
<h2>Discover the amount of fat stored around you organs and therefore your health risk!</h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Visceral fat is the fat that is stored around your organs and therefore directly relates to your health. If you score highly here you know you need to take some action to improve your health!</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Would you like to know how many calories you should consume a day? These scales will give you an estimate helping you to formulate a diet plan to suit your needs!</p>
<h2>Bone and Water %</h2>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">These scales will also give you bone %’s and hydration % give you the tools you need to make the right health decisions.</p>
<p>They are quick and easy to use&#8230; they need to be, you try retesting all the boot-campers on the last Sunday of each month! They have got to work fast.</p>
<p>Do not worry if you are not technically minded as they have a comprehensive instruction manual and I use them every day! For me to use something electrical it’s needs to be idiot proof, you just ask Clare what I’m like with technology!</p>
<p>When I brought these scale I paid <strong>£179.99 </strong>and if you buy them from John Lewis, Tanita, this is what you would pay. We have pick up 11 sets for<strong> <span style="color: #ff0000;">Only £125.</span></strong></p>
<p>Do you want a £55 discount?</p>
<p>Even if you wait for the January sales you’ll not get them at £55 off the RRP.</p>
<h2>So who’s in?</h2>
<ul>
<li>Would your weight loss be easier if you had a professional tool to help you?</li>
<li>Is it time you used a professional tool to help you set your goals realistically?</li>
<li>Would you achieve your goals if you were able to track and measure your success properly and understand what <a href="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=BPWYT8MTR7LPA" target="_blank"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1094" title="Personal training berko" src="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/tinita-scales1-300x273.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="273" /></a>happening inside your body?</li>

		<description><![CDATA[12 Absolute Bootcampers Climb Snowdon, find out how they got on plus a video of the 9.30 bootcampers working out.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I hope that you are all getting lean and mean for the summer.</p>
<p>If you have not started getting into shape don’t leave it any later. The magazines with the headlines flat stomach in 2 week or a 6 pack in 6 days is lying to you&#8230;!<a href="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01945.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1085" title="Absolute Training Keith Tucker" src="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01945-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>I have started my own summer regime, Monday was drop sets, Tuesday 10 rounds of hard boxing and today metabolic circuit training! If it wasn’t for the stiff and sore muscles I’d feeling fighting fit!!!</p>
<p>Our boot camps are about more than just weight loss and fitness this weekend was a big weekend for 12 of our campers!</p>
<p>On the Friday the 25<sup>th</sup> a group of excited and slightly anxious Absolute Bootcamp Berkhamsted Bootcampers embarked on a 5 hour journey to North Wales.</p>
<p>For some of it was going to be an event of a lifetime, other a celebration of how far they have come in less than a year!</p>
<p>Joining last September some have gone from sedentary to mountain conqueror in just 9 short months!</p>
<p>We took 15 including me up and brought 15 back. I can’t say for sure that they are the same 15 people as many when through some changes as they conquered fatigue and fears.</p>
<p>We all arrived at the hotel at the bottom of mount Snowdon on Friday evening after a long 5 hour drive. Obviously there were only 2 things on people’s minds&#8230;</p>
<p>1)      A good meal</p>
<p>2)      Hitting the bar!</p>
<p>Some of us hit the bar harder than others but a good time was had by all.</p>
<p>By 2.30 most were in bed getting the necessary shut eye for the climb ahead&#8230; others (Amy) where still up trying to sober up a little before bed!</p>
<p>Here she is the following morning not looking ready to go????</p>
<p><a href="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC019011.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1069" title="Berkhamsted Bootcamp Amy 1" src="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC019011-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a>I think she may have been still drunk as it was not long before she looked like this!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01906.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1070 alignleft" title="Berkhamsted Bootcamp Amy 2" src="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01906-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>The alarm went off all too soon at 7 for a 7.30 breakfast, then we splint into 2 groups, a fast and a slower group.</p>
<p>The fast group had an extra job to do.</p>
<p>Drop the cars off on the other side of Snowdon and then get back and catch up the other group who would have about an hour head start.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC019161.jpg"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1087" title="Absolute Personal training Tony Tucker" src="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC019161-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a>I led the faster group and we quickly got our kit together and got off to the drop point. My dad (Tony in this photo) led the slower group who then signed out the hotel and started their climb up the mountain.</p>
<p>I don’t know if you like driving, but if you do I can recommend the Snowdon area, but make sure that you have someone who knows where they are going or a good satnav!</p>
<p>I thought we were trouble&#8230;. As I heard my co-pilot come out with the quote of the weekend&#8230;. She (Susan) was doing the map reading&#8230;</p>
<p>“<em>I think we’re in trouble. There does not seem to be a wiggle for the wiggle that we are on!!!!&#8230;.. </em></p>
<p>Possibly not what you want to hear when you are throwing your car through the lanes of Snowdonia we 3 other cars following you rely on you to not get lost!</p>
<p>All was good though the map just needed turning round so that all the wiggles matched up.</p>
<p>We quickly got back from the dropping off of the car and started our assent. The pace was brisk and I have to give congratulation to Angie White, Neil Williams, Susan Beddal and Gale Jackson as they kept the pace and stormed the mountain!</p>
<p>We caught the up with the other team at about 12.30.</p>
<p>It was then a hard climb to the top as we were climbing in 25+ degree heat without a cooling wind.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC019081.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1072" title="Berkhamsted Bootcamp climbing 1" src="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC019081-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a><a href="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC019121.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1075" title="Berkhamsted bootcamp climbing 2" src="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC019121-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>We regrouped before the top&#8230;.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01970.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1076" title="Berkhamsted boot camp regrouping " src="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01970-225x300.jpg" alt="" width="225" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>Amy had to regroup mentally as well as physically, hangover in full swing in 25 degree heat!!!!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01954.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1077" title="berkhamsted boot camp amy regrouping mentally" src="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01954-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>The top was gained in 4 hours so we had celebratory nibbles, water and a photo. After we all used the new toilets and congratulating ourselves for getting there regardless of painful bits and medical conditions it was time to start back down.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01977.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-1078" title="Berkhamsted bootcamp at the top" src="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01977-1024x768.jpg" alt="" width="704" height="528" /></a></p>
<p>We started in good sprit’s knowing lunch was going to be an hour or less away and that we were on our way home&#8230;.  The happy campers soon learned that down is a lot harder than up. For those of you who have never climbed a mountain, the down part is harder for 2 reasons. 1) The strain on the leg muscle and knee joints is far greater and 2) uneven ground covered in lose pebbles becomes treacherous.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01985.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-1081" title="Hemel, hempstead, berkhamsted, bovingdon, bootcamp, climb down" src="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01985-1024x768.jpg" alt="" width="819" height="614" /></a></p>
<p>Although people knees and leg were getting tired after lunch everyone battled on. Strong breeze was cooling us and our bellies were full again. Amy’s hang over was subsiding and she was starting to look positively perky!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01982.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-large wp-image-1079" title="diet, nutrition, lunch time" src="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01982-1024x768.jpg" alt="" width="738" height="553" /></a></p>
<p>We got to the car park on the other side of Snowdon about 8 hours after the first group had left the hotel.</p>
<p>Time for a finishers photo a good congratulatory slap on the back!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01990.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-large wp-image-1080" title="Hemel hempstead berkhamsted bovingdon finishers photo" src="http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/DSC01990-1024x768.jpg" alt="" width="819" height="614" /></a></p>
<p>Well done to everyone one who climbed, I really enjoyed myself. We’ll choose a different mountain next year for some more climbing and photo taking.</p>
<p>I have heard mention and interest for doing the 3 peaks challenge I’ll be asking those of you interested soon. But for the time being it’s time to look forward to the summer BBQ in July and then the next activity weekend in September.</p>
<p>Hope to see you all there,</p>
<p>Keith</p>
<p>P.S – You see Absolute Bootcamp Berkhamsted is not just about the exercise and the weight loss, we are also about the experience and friendship that can only be gained through experiencing things together.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-833" title="Roger" src="http://absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Roger.jpg" alt="Roger" width="216" height="243" />At the age of 54, I came to realise that I was not invincible. I have been in the work place since I left school at 17 years old.</p>
<p>Years of drinking too much, working long hours and the stress of running my own business had left me in less than perfect health. I had a dodgy back, knee, shoulders and psoriatic arthritis in my wrists.</p>
<p>Keith puts a big focus on nutrition, I have been more and more aware over the last few years of the importance of nutrition and Keith fine tuned what I was doing identifying food that would aggravate my conditions and foods that support my suspect immune system.</p>
<p>1 year on my knees don&#8217;t give me any problems, the back is fine about 90% of the time. I&#8217;m stronger; less tired and have plenty of stamina.</p>
<p>Keith has not found a cure for my psoriatic arthritis but I have had about 80% improvement I can now hold and lift weights where before my wrists were too painful. I also personal train with Keith and his team and have been toning up and losing weight at well!</p>
<p>I would highly recommend Keith to you. You’ll find him empathetic, knowledgeable, motivational, inspiring and professional.</p>
<p>Good luck to you in your health and fitness endeavours</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-830" title="Annette" src="http://absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Annette.jpg" alt="Annette" width="141" height="237" />When I met Keith after email correspondence I was apprehensive as I was a size 18 who should be a 10 to 12. I thought that my weight was dangerous especially with a family history of high blood pressure, High cholesterol and heart disease.<strong> </strong></p>
<p>Needless to say I feel much better losing just over two stone (14kg) and dropping from a size 18 to a size 12!!  My headaches, stomach troubles, eczema and mood swings are much improved and I would never have dreamt that the energy levels I have now would have been possible! My self confidence and self esteem is much improved – I sometimes don’t recognise myself in the mirror!  My relationship with my husband, family and friends has improved because I’m not being so grumpy and unwilling to do things.  I’ve made some really good friends and met some really nice people through Keith’s courses and training sessions.</p>
<p> I do feel a bit too old for all the attention in the office though!</p>

On the Absolute Training PN course I lost a stone in the 6 weeks, my blood pressure dropped enough for me to reduce my medication and it gave me the energy to start doing <a href="http://absolute-training.org/personal-training/" target="_self">Personal Training</a>.</p>
<p>This is me last year on the top of Snowdon, something that I would not have thought possible before meeting Keith and the team.</p>
<p>This nutrition course opened my eyes to nutrition and how what we are told is not always true and does not make sense and yet we believe it.</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t recommend it enough, learn a new way of looking at your diet and your health and get the results that you have been promised.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-807" title="Patti Whittle" src="http://absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Patti-Whittle.jpg" alt="Patti Whittle" width="158" height="171" />Hi Keith and Clare,</p>
<p>I have been trying to think of very clever and witty things to say for you to put on the website. However, I have come to the conclusion that there is a reason I am not a writer by profession so will simply say how I “feel” about boot camp.</p>
<p>As you know, I have tried personal training, running, gym, etc… All in an effort to become more fit. When I heard about your boot camp from Annabel, I was interested because she seemed to enjoy it so much but still be getting a good work out.</p>
<p>The assessment was amazing and my shoulder is still pain free. Who would have thought that 2 simple stretches would have such an instant effect?  I looked at the website and was inspired by the attitude of all of you. No matter how I feel when I wake up, I look forward to going to boot camp because I know I will be in a better mood after. So many of my friends say they admire my dedication but it is not dedication really. I honestly feel guilty if I am not there and feel better for having gone…it is really a no brainer.</p>
<p>I love the fact that each time I walk through the door, I have NO IDEA what I will be doing that day. It is so refreshing not to do the same old things every single time. It is very hard but also so much fun at the same time. I can tell a difference in my body as well as my attitude. Your energy is contagious and while I love to complain, I wouldn’t miss my sessions for anything.</p>
<p>Thank you all so much for making exercise something I look forward to!</p>
<p>See you tomorrow!</p>
<p>Patti</p>

If like me, you loathe gyms full of Lycra clad beauties &#8211; come to Boot Camp and be trained by a team who really care about YOU and what YOU are trying to achieve.  You will sweat more than you have ever sweated before, and yes, at first you will ache like never before BUT, within three weeks I have re-discovered muscles that had been lost to me since childbirth some 14 years ago!!!!</p>
<p>The motivation which you get from them is amazing – it is friendly, great fun, very hard work but so worth it.  I’ve met some really genuinely great people and I absolutely love coming to every session.</p>
<p>Serena</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-798" title="Angie white" src="http://absolute-training.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/Angie-white.jpg" alt="Angie white" width="598" height="262" />Hey there.. My name is Angie and it&#8217;s been a couple of months since i bumped into Keith in town and he asked &#8220;How would you like to get fit?&#8221; It didn&#8217;t take long for me to answer because I had been waiting for that moment for a few months&#8230;.</p>
<p>My journey started in September 2008 when I decided to finally do something about my weight for <strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">ME!</span></strong> 1 year later I had lost 4 stone and was so chuffed with myself but very hungry, de-motivated and the weight just wasn&#8217;t coming off anymore. I new i needed to tone up and start the home straight to get me to my goal weight but the gym just didn&#8217;t keep me motivated and sometimes had the opposite effect with regards to my eating habits.</p>
<p>So back to now.. I&#8217;ve been going to Bootcamp for 7 weeks and I luv it! I&#8217;ve made some great friends and they have a nack for making me laugh even when I&#8217;m working my socks off.. I&#8217;ve lost another half a stone but more than anything have started seeing my body shape change (for the better!). It doesn&#8217;t matter what shape, size or fitness level you are, everyone is there to support each other, have fun and burn those calories. It really feels like we&#8217;re all in it together!</p>
<p>I can&#8217;t thank Keith, Clare, Amy and all my friends at Bootcamp enough for helping me in so many ways..</p>
<p>See you all tomorrow guys! <img src='http://www.absolute-training.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<h2 style="text-align: center;">&#8220;I&#8217;ve Lost 15 Pounds in Two Months!&#8221;</h2>
<p>“I recently had a baby and was <span style="color: #000000;">having trouble getting my pre-baby</span> body back.  I will admit that I was completely hesitant to join a gym.  The thought of working out never really appealed to me.  I eventually went to &#8220;The Studio&#8221; just to check it out.  I am so glad that I did!  The trainers there were phenomenal.  I&#8217;ve already lost 15 pounds of fat and I have about 20 left.  I know I can do it!  Thanks so much for having such a wonderful facility.  You all do a great job.&#8221;</p>
<div id="attachment_76" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 160px"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-76" title="Tim Hanshaw" src="/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/ss-2-150x150.jpg" alt="Tim Hanshaw" width="150" height="150" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Tim Hanshaw</p></div>
<h2 style="text-align: left;">&#8220;My Doctor Wanted to Know My Secret&#8221;</h2>
<p>&#8220;About a year ago my doctor sat me down for a tough conversation.  He explained that my years of inactivity and careless eating were catching up with me.  I had 39% body fat and it was expected to increase if I kept up.  My doctor suggested I work with Sam, one of the owners of &#8220;The Studio&#8221;.  I gave Sam a call and the rest is history.  I love working out with Sam.  He keeps me motivated.  I recently went back to my doctor and my health has improved so much that he wanted to know my secret.&#8221;</p>

<h2 style="text-align: left;">&#8220;45 Pounds Lighter and Tons More Energy&#8221;</h2>
<p>&#8220;I am honored to write this for the guys and girls working at &#8220;The Studio&#8221;.  You all have completely changed my life.  I am 45 pounds lighter and have tons more energy.  Before I became a member I was always tired and cranky.  I never had any energy and life was just dull.  I had no idea that working out and eating well could so drastically change my mood.  I wanted to say thank you for all your hard work, education and dedication to me.  It feels good to have you guys in my corner.&#8221;</p>
