Tuesday of last week marked 23 years since I started working in the Fitness Industry.

Your fresh faced young scribe turned up for his first day at Fitness First Derby on the 4th March 2002.

The previous year I had graduated from Nottingham University with a Bachelors in Manufacturing Engineering and Operations Management.

But, in order to work around what you could call a ‘career in semi-professional sports’, I decided to start working in the Fitness Industry.

Anyway, I’ve just decided to write “23 things I’ve learnt from 23 years in the Fitness Industry”.

I’ll be honest, I don’t know if I’m going to manage all 23.

Off the top of my head, I’m struggling with more than a handful

But I’ve decided to announce it and get started.

Because that will always produce more results than not getting started.

Hopefully I’ll make the 23.

But it’s infinitely more likely that I will by posting this first one than if I don’t.

Much like is infinitely more likely that you’re getting better shape by doing some exercise and making some better food choices today.

We don’t need to have the full journey mapped out.

It’s ok to get moving and course correct as we go.

Ready – Fire – Aim.

Much love,

Jon ‘Fuzes’ Hall

P.S. You don’t need to have the entirety of your time with us planned out. Just taking the next step to find out more may lead to you doing our four week transformation / trial. Or it might lead to me recommending something that’s a better fit. Either way, you’ll be better off by actually doing something and checking www.myrise.co.uk/apply
