If you haven’t yet put your name on the “I’m coming sheet” on the notice board in reception then please do so, many thanks and see you there.
Well done to the following:
Rachel Tanner - see article below
Jessica Puddy – 50 floors on the stepper in 5mins 34 sec
David Cheshire - some great reassessment results losing 6inches and 3% body fat.
Debbie Shipp took 36 seconds off her best time for 1 mile on the Rotex.
Brian O’Donnell has been fantastic over the last month. His training is really coming on and he is a regular sight at 7am.
Keep up the great work Brian and reap the benefits.
Ian Wigmore, Brian’s partner in crime. Again great work over the last month and great work on the rower.
Rachel is currently cycling 390km (243 miles). That’s roughly 49 miles per day across the rough terrain in southern India! Rachel has already raised over £3,000 for the charity Women for Women. We look forward to hearing more about Rachel’s challenge. If you would like to donate some money please contact Andy.
We would like to welcome Matt Ellam as a new member for November. We very much hope that we can help you all towards your health and fitness goals.
The gym assistants have kindly invited all their fellow members to join them for a Christmas evening out, to take place on 19th December at the Rose and Crown in Brokenborough from 7.30pm onwards. Please see the list on the notice board in the gym reception area for more details and add your name if you are going to attend. If you have an interest in helping other members get the most out of their training and would love to further your fitness knowledge please contact Andy or Ric about the next gym assistants’ course.
We would like to thank Jo Smyth for her continued support with the newsletter again this year thanks again for making the newsletters.

As a memento of ten years of Focus on Fitness, a limited edition polo shirt is now available while stocks last. Please see a trainer to get yours today. £13.50 per shirt.
There are a number of you who wish you could encourage your husband, wife, secretary, best friend etc to come and join the club. Our conversations often lead to chat along the lines of ”if only I could get him here, he’s always moaning about his back”. Well, why not book him, her, them a session with one of the team? I know we can seem a little scary at times, but if you do feel someone may benefit from our guidance we can arrange for a tailor made voucher. Looking for a challenge for 2008? Book your New Year health & fitness consultation NOW!
Well done to everyone who took part in the 2000m rowing challenge. The winners of November’s challenge for best improved time are: Craig Beaven, improved by 13.6secs; David Pryce by 36secs; Kit Harding by 22.7sec;, Sian Edwards by 77.7secs; Marie Coupland by 33secs; and Christine Maclachlan by 33.3secs. Please see Nick and Tilly to claim your free 30 min PT or massage session. This month’s challenge is to complete 50 floors on the stepper as fast as you can at a resistance level of your choice.
Have a fantastic Christmas and enjoy the wait for January’s exciting newsletter. Thanks from The Team
