“A few years ago my heaviest was 20st, I calorie counted and got down to 16, but I was not able to maintain and as soon as I started to eat again it went straight back on. I went to the gym and lifted crazy heavy weights, the muscle just built under the fat and I looked like a balloon. […]

“Thought it was a good opportunity though to reflect on the past few months at MA. I started in February horrendously overweight (the biggest id ever been), completely inactive, generally exhausted and low on confidence and energy. I was wearing XXXL clothes, size 46” trousers & all my clothes were brought online. My weights, measures and scores in that first […]

“I joined Manalive in March 2016 at almost 98kg. I was out of shape, demotivated by it and conscious of a history of heart disease and diabetes in my family. I decided to take some action. Over the last 6 months I’ve received excellent guidance around nutrition and the three sessions per week with Manalive have completely changed my life. […]

“Not sure I can express how much this programme has changed me. As you can see from the before and after photos physically there’s a 3 stone difference and also a massive fitness gain. But it’s not only the weight that changes. I was almost 50 and about to settle for the middle age spread and a life on the […]

“I joined ManAlive because I wasn’t happy with the way I looked or felt. Clothes didn’t fit and the new clothes I was buying were just getting bigger and bigger. I’ve got a young family and I want to be around for as long as possible for them and the way I was going I was certainly making that more […]

“So where do we start? Picture the scene, its November 2014 I’m in Spain on holiday and I’m involved in a hit & run accident on my bicycle. I’ve got a smashed collarbone, fractured arm and severe bruising down my left leg and more importantly, bleeding on the brain, blood clots and black outs; 6 months of hell, ever so slowly […]

“I applied to Manalive because I had been quite ill for a few years before hand with various different complaints. Firstly I found out in 2013 that I have 3 dehydrated discs in my lower back, and 2 cracked vertebra. This used to cause severe pain. Because of this I suffered with sciatica in my left leg. In 2014 my […]

“My journey started a year before joining ManAlive. I was nearing a milestone birthday and decided I had to be healthy in my 60’s I needed to lose weight. I’ve always been fit, but my misguided impression was that exercise alone was enough, it wasn’t and I carried too much weight, especially around the middle. I knew this but never really tackled it. I’m […]

“Christmas 2015, I was overweight and unfit. I have 4 kids (17,15, 7, & 5) and wanted to make a change to be fit, active and healthy for myself, them and my wife. We had just lost a family member to a stroke aged 44. With me being 42 it was a massive wake up call that it could happen […]
