Jonathan’s secret to getting in ‘six-pack shape’ in his forties

"My weight was dropping every week, and I was hitting personal bests every session."

Jonathan is proud to say he’s in the best shape of his life in his forties.

He’d spent years trying to lose weight, working with personal trainers and dieting hard, but nothing ever really worked the way he hoped.

Knowing he wasn't getting any younger, Jonathan believed this was his “last chance” to build a physique he was proud of.

Here, he explains how he lost over 13kg working with Ultimate Performance…

What was your motivation to start training with Ultimate Performance?

I've tried a number of personal trainers and multiple gyms, but I never saw results.

It was my last attempt to get into shape, so I’m incredibly happy I made this choice.

I like to look my best. I like to look good and feel healthy. It’s something that I always strive for.

I would always eat healthily and exercise, but I needed a real push to help me get the results I wanted.

I definitely feel like I have more energy now.

Before training with Ultimate Performance, I would run for 20 minutes around three or four times a week. But I felt maxed out. I wasn’t fit.

Now, if I want to, I can run for 45 minutes and feel like I can keep going. I’m much more energetic and I’m far healthier, which is great.

Honestly, I was achieving personal bests every session. I was seeing my weight drop every week too. That made me strive for more.

I knew the improvements were hard-earned so I didn’t want to reverse the direction I was heading in by slacking or being lazy.

I really appreciated the professionalism and expertise of my trainer. He was genuinely invested in my progress.

He was like a cheerleader, celebrating my successes, which pushed me to do my best. It was absolutely worth my time and investment.
