David Raikes, a resident of York, is astounded by the incredible changes in his life since he lost an impressive three and a half stone. Initially, David’s declining health and joint pain hindered his ability to enjoy playing golf, which he adores.
In early 2023, David made the proactive decision to join Definition Body Coaching in Nether Poppleton, a personal training studio. Since then, he has triumphed over a remarkable transformation, shedding three and a half stone. As a testament to his success, David was honoured with the esteemed “best change” award as voted by fellow studio members.
Reflecting on his journey, David shared: “The greatest impact has been on my mental well-being and perspective. Throughout my weight loss journey, I concentrated on achieving small goals that have had an astounding positive influence on my life. I now experience heightened energy levels, improved focus and concentration; additionally, my productivity at work has soared.”
Having attempted numerous unsuccessful exercise routines and weight loss strategies in the past, David emphasized that this time around he is achieving victory – an accomplishment awaiting anyone who embarks on their own transformative journey.
Carl Ward, co-founder of Definition Body Coaching and David’s personal trainer since he joined the studio stated: “David’s commitment has been unwavering throughout. Failure simply wasn’t an option for him this time around. He consistently ticked all the right boxes repeatedly—and it’s no wonder our clients hold him in such high regard.”
Thanks to his successful transformation journey, David is happily back enjoying his favourite pastime: golfing to his heart’s content.
