Fighting Fit At Any Age!

Do you remember the good old days when you used to be fit and active?
When you used to enjoy the adrenaline rush of playing sports with your friends and the excitement of looking forward to the next time you all got together to compete again?
Where have those times gone?
Why can't you experience those feelings again?

It wasn't long ago I went through exactly what you are going through

Life gets in the way and with growing up comes a job, a partner, kids and plenty of bills including the mortgage! From playing sports and excelling at Cricket(which I played to county level for Hertfordshire before a back injury forced to stop playing at a high level) I had to stop and find something else to fill the void. So I turned my attention to the gym and lifting heavy weights. So instead of continuing to spend my Sundays playing cricket in the warm weather and strolling around the outfield of a cricket pitch waiting for lunch so I could have some tuna sandwiches I decided it would be a better idea to eat lots of chicken and pick up anything that was heavy. Unfortunately for me, as I found my free time vanishing whilst I concentrated on working and raising a family the only thing heavy I was pushing around now was my ever expanding stomach.

As I stuttered through life my confidence began to dwindle, surely there was more to life than this? I had to find a way to be happy, something which made me feel alive and something I could look forward to. I had done the whole weight training thing, I had been yo-yo dieting for years, losing and then gaining weight every year but it all just felt so hollow, I was now past the age of 30 wondering if I would be feeling like this for the rest of my working life but then one chance meeting in the gym would change my life for ever....

I was introduced to someone who used to Box in South America and together with a few friends requested he teach us the sweet science of Boxing. I was hooked, I loved the feeling of punching the pads or the bag, with all the added benefits that Boxing gave to my physique I got into the best shape of my life. I was feeling much better both mentally and physically and now I had something to look forward to every week. But then it stopped and again I was left thinking where do I go from here?

Having bounced around a few Boxing clubs I decided I would take matters into my own hands, knowing how good I felt when I was Boxing and the difference it had made to my life, I decided I would start teaching others so they could experience the same feelings I had and so every weekend, after spending the week working my full time job in IT I would travel down to the very gym I first learnt to Box and would teach others.

My plan had been set, in the years that followed I would train with Team Hatton(recognised by the British Board of Boxing Control and developed by former World Champion Ricky Hatton) and become a Team Hatton Elite Level Trainer. The Boxercise side was now covered and I could help others get into shape and lose weight. This was quickly followed by learning Strength and Conditioning with KBT.

Now I was qualified to coach others to become stronger, more muscular and perform better in their sport. I still wasn't content and wanted to complete the jigsaw so I got in touch with a former Boxing Champion and Ringside TV Analyst Spencer Oliver and went about learning the technical side of Boxing. Now I could do what I was so passionate about, help others and pass my knowledge on, I could help others feel better about themselves, increase their self esteem and better their health, much like Boxing had done for me. I could give back. I have gone on to publish my books on Amazon and am also a writer for the popular Boxing website Ringside Report.

Nothing makes me happier than to see people I have helped, show progress with their fitness goals, with their health and show an increased zest in living life, and so it started, Fayz Fitness was born with my first client being the cousin of a friend. I believe that everyone, male, female, young and old has the right to develop their bodies and learn self defence for their own confidence and health, and it is a goal of mine to help as many people as possible realize this dream. As my own journey continues to grow and progress, my work has been featured on major boxing sites such as BoxingGuru and by current and past World Champions on @fayz_boxing

Testimonials

Over the course of three months I've basically been put through hellish workouts to achieve the goals I stated at the start. Today I finished the first race of my Spartan trifecta, cutting an hour off last year's time, completing far more obstacles, and not struggling to walk afterwards but happily running around to threaten my other half with sweaty hugs.

I don't believe for a second I'd have got this far without Fayz's encouragement, arduous workouts, and help - and I'm looking forward (after a fashion) both to continuing training and hitting my trifecta for the year.

I started with Fayz Fitness when I had all but given up on other exercise programmes. I enrolled on the Fighting Fit Package. Fayz really changed my mindset over the 4 weeks and also my fitness level. He understands each individuals requirements and how to get them to where they need to be, both mentally and physically. The sessions were tough (as they should be) but very enjoyable and results were quick. Fayz has a knack of getting the best out of you. My recommendation is to contact Fayz to get your fitness goals back on track. Looking forward to returning to the Fighting Fit package.

I went for a routine blood test, as part of turning 40. It came as a bit of a shock to be diagnosed as pre-diabetic, not only that, but my follow up highlighted high blood pressure and a high pulse rate. My Doctor suggested taking medication to control it. However, I wanted to avoid this so I said I would change my diet and exercise. I could see from her expression, she was thinking, I’ve heard that one before. The majority of people diagnosed pre-diabetic normally become diabetic within two years. For about a year I change my diet did a bit of exercise, I lost a bit of weight, but a year later I was still in the pre-diabetic zone and my pulse and blood pressure were still high. I had stopped it from getting any worse but not reversed it. I knew I needed to up my game. That's when I was introduced to Fayz and started training with him on Sunday mornings. It’s a combination of the boxing skill base and cardio base training that has kick started my road to recovery. I have been training with Fayz just over six months now. The progress I have made has been remarkable. I have lost 10kg, my blood pressure and pulse rate is normal. The most significant change is I am no longer pre-diabetic. My Sunday morning training with Fayz now forms the cornerstone of my exercise and diet plan. Having that structured training by a professional really has made the difference. I am probably the fittest I have been for the last 20 years. I track all my sessions and I regularly burn over 1000 calories in one session. My Doctor has said I have put years on my life, just by changing my lifestyle. The goal is to lose a further 15kg which I fully expect to do by sticking with the training. If you need to get fit, lose weight, improve your coordination and flexibility than training with Fayz will make such a difference. I wouldn’t be where I am now without his help and support, the best part is it’s not just hard work it’s a lot fun as well. I can’t wait to see where I will be in another six months.

I approached Fayz when i was struggling with my weight. When i met him for the first time he quickly put me at ease and understood what i was trying to achieve through the sessions. Overtime i could see a total transformation in my physical body structure. I had become more confident as a result of our sessions. I not only learned about exercising through the use of weights but also learned boxing as well. Fayz was able to guide me through the diet plan as well and advising in what to eat and when to eat. Overall I was happy with Fayz as my trainer and would recommend him to anyone serious about getting into shape. All the best.

Fayz is highly experienced, friendly and a great motivator. Coming from a background of no experience, the methods and training techniques introduced to me have significantly enhanced my speed, fitness, power and endurance.

In less than a year of weekly training, the observable results during sparring are incredible – I feel assured in my ability to defend/attack/counter and continue to improve.

The results Fayz has shown me go far over my original expectations. The training has also lead to me having a more balanced diet, increased stamina and a confidence that spreads through my daily life.

I have been training at Watford with Fayz for 3 years.
He is very experienced and teaches technique, drills and sparring.
If you want to learn boxing, I recommend this guy.

I started training with Fayz after a year away from the gym. As a newly married guy I was finding it difficult to balance work and family commitments with training. I knew from experience how valuable a personal trainer can be to give you focus. What I found with Fayz was he is unlike most other personal trainers who give you a standard template to follow (which normally involved you paying for more sessions), he listens to your goals and tailors a training program to fit with what else you got going on in your life.

As a keen boxer, training with Fayz has improved my skill set and confidence to a level I am now keen to take part in more white collar events.

Whether it’s general fitness, weight training or boxing Fayz will help you achieve your goals.

Fayz has been training me to box for the past 2 or so years and I can confidently say that I have massively improved both my skill-set and functional strength for the sport through his guidance and approach. His breadth of knowledge in boxing compliments his own boxing skill and his ability to demonstrate and deliver the technique to his student.
Besides boxing, I have a particular focus for plyometric and HIT exercises and I can fully trust Fayz to set up a well-balanced and vigorous training circuit for me.
Having been trained by some very experienced PTs in the past from the renowned Central London gym, “Gymbox” I can say without hesitation that Fayz not only surpasses them in terms of knowledge
