Tony Cater's Gym Testimony

Having the disease of copd I was referred by my doctor to go to on the NHS pulmonary rehabilitation course to learn how to live with a constant shortness of breath. The course consisted of gentle exercises, techniques on the taking of medications and an insight of how they worked in your lungs, and general practical help. The course was a 2 hour sessions 3 days a week for 6 weeks followed with a monthly meeting to get together for a general chat and light exercises.
On my initial course the physical instructor at the time believed that exercise was of paramount importance as it greatly enhanced our breathing difficulties due to the fact that toned up muscles lead to a decrease of oxygen needed and subsequently easier breathing.
At the end of the course he suggested  to maintain our new level of fitness we had acquired, we needed to carry on exercising either at home or at a gym.
Over the past four years I have joined three different gyms in Torbay and each time giving up due to the lack of motivation.
My health started to deteriorate and I was lacking energy to cope with the most easiest of tasks.
A few weeks ago after leaving another visit to my Doctors I just thought I would walk across the road and have a look at the "One Vision One Fitness Gym" not really intending to join although deep down in my inner conscience I knew I needed to start exercising, and what a welcome.
I thought I had entered Pixyland with this little lady with her Christmas hat still on, running around everywhere making sure everyone was ok.

I was shown the 10 different isokenetic machines which I thought were magic as they worked all by themselves (well nearly) plus the conventional  gym equipment and a guided tour to the changing rooms and showers.

The decor of the gym has a London theme to it and very attractively painted by the children of a local school. The Gym has a pleasant atmosphere with 60's music playing sometimes for us old boys. The layout of the gym is  done in such a way that she is always in view of you should you need help with anything.

I was very impressed as this was very different to the other gyms  and needless to say my wife and I joined immediately.

Claire, Sue and all the other staff at the gym are always courteous and helpful and can even make a decent cup of coffee at refreshment time.

Caroline  is an awesome lady, she makes you very welcomed, gives you lots of help and advice and is all up for a bit of bantering. Great fun.

I am a strong believer that keeping fit gives me a totally different outlook on life and if Caroline can't sort you out then nobody can. She's lovely.

"Delight"  sums up how i felt after joining one vision one fitness.

The feeling of well being i came away with was not only due to the fact that i was at last doing something about my lack of fitness after a hip replacement.

But because of the pleasant atmosphere, the careful monitoring by the lively cheerful, helpful staff who always greeted every one.

The "At home feeling", whereby you can , with ease work on your own or chat with re-discovered familiar faces was a nice surprise!

A good move on my part !

Mandy Hilchins

After seeing some holiday snaps !! I was determined to change my appearance,  I was also suffering from a lot of back pain and needed to do something about it , so I joined a gym (one vision one fitness ) and with the help of the staff and encouragement of the other gym members, made it all possible for me to so far lose 5 and half stone ! my goal is to reach 10 stone, I never thought I would love going to a gym - Mandy

'Caroline did an amazing job at training me for my wedding. She tailored a program to help me achieve my goals and could tell if I hadn't kept my side of the bargain between sessions!

 She won't take no for an answer and pushes you further than you thought you could go, to get the best out of you (see how long you can last before you feel that burn 'cos trust me, she'll find just the exercise to make you feel it!)  I'm pleased I had my dress made a few inches smaller than my size at the beginning of the process because it fitted me perfectly on the day! Thanks a million!'

 A GYM FOR EVERYONE

I joined One Vision One Fitness after suffering a stroke nearly 2 years ago.

I was struggling to walk a few yards and needed somewhere friendly, somewhere i would feel comfortable and most of all somewhere i could improve my disability.

The first two were easy, as my concerns were dismissed immediately, the latter was up to me.

A friendly chat with expert guidance from Caroline the owner, started me on a course of 1 hours  exercise for as many days per week as i wished , no pressure it was up to me. 

I decided on three to four mornings per week together with one day with a superb physio at mount stuart hospital.

The results well....... the other day as i limped slightly from the bike to the leg press i was stopped by a new member who asked , have you hurt your leg john?

I smiled and thought , now one even knows i have had a stroke! still many months of exercise ahead , at least its a friendly and enjoyable journey.

Thanks Caroline

John.

I absolutely hate the words "gym" and "exercise".  I've never been a exercise person and the thought of having to join one vision, wasn't an experience I was looking forward too. Until, that is, when I got there. At the moment I only use the Isokenitics machines, it takes half an hour and I love it so much, I call in everyday after work and do the circuit..... And the great thing is Caroline or Sue have never tried to push me to do anything else, instead they've encourage and praised me for what I am doing.

I would never have walked into a gym alone before. The thought of it would have filled me with dread. But that's exactly what I do every day now. The difference to my body shape is unbelievable, but the biggest difference is my change of attitude towards exercising. Although it's not easy it's enjoyable, relaxed and comfortable and im really glad my friend Lesley introduced me to it.
