Phenomenally fit in your fifties part 1: The Wife, losing 6 inches off her waist
How we did it
There is only one word to describe Wendy regarding her progress in the gym – phenomenal. Irrespective of age, Wendy is one of the fittest, strongest, (smallest!), and most determined clients I have ever had the pleasure of training!
Wendy completes one weekly buddy training session with her husband Richard, along with adhering to her monthly updated independent training programme and nutrition plan.
Whether it’s full chin ups, deadlifting near double body weight, or experimenting with the toughest of nutrition plans, Wendy just gets the job done, and in 4 years has not complained or moaned once – this alone deserves an award!

Here is what Wendy had to say about training with IPT Fitness:
“Meeting Aimee at our local gym a few years ago was a stroke of luck! I had recently joined with my husband but wasn’t really confident enough to make good use of the machines and so only attended classes. I was of the opinion that I didn’t want to get too muscular by using weights. How wrong was I!
