How old are you?

Chas 38, Hazel 34

What is your regular job?

(H) Mother/Accounts Administrator

How long have you been attending BMF for?

(H) May 06

What first made you attend the classes?

(C) Needed to get fit and lose weight but I was really bored of going or just not going to the gym and saw an article in the Times Magazine.

(H) I wanted to tone up and get fit and Chas, my husband, really rated BMF and seemed to be really enjoying it so I thought why not and I was finding too many excuses not to go to my local aerobics class!

Why have you stayed with BMF?

(H) I really enjoy the classes even though I find it hard at times. The classes are never the same and I enjoy being outside (even in the winter!) I think I am becoming addicted because I hate missing classes! how sad am I?!

What do you enjoy most about the classes?

(C) Sense of achievement, enjoyment and the encouragement and motivation from the other BMFers and of course the instructors

(H) Firstly the people in the group, everyone is really fun and there is a great sense of teamwork. Also the sense of achievement I feel after running up and down Parliament Hill ten times!

What aspect(s) do you least enjoy about the classes?

(H) Burpees!

How much has your fitness and health improved since you started the classes?

(H) Massively and I am losing weight and toning up too!

What would you say to anyone who was thinking about taking a free class with BMF?

(H) Have an open mind and just try it, dont be frightened off by the thought of military fitness. It is amazing how much can be achieved in a short space of time and it is great fun too.

		As a marathon runner this is the best type of training for me *Didier Manier* After every session you really feel like you have worked and sweated and there is a great level of camaradary *Jenni Regan* BMF is not just for the super fit, nor is it run by army sergeants screaming at you Full Metal Jacket style *Alex Herbert* I love BMF, everyone gets on well; it is more sociable than a gym, especially when you are giving someone a piggy back! *Emily Ogden* The instructors just keep pushing you to get your best *John Davies*
