Testimonials

“I was unhappy with my fitness when I first started, but the facilities and approachable staff have helped me change my body shape.”
Tracy, 31
“Before joining I was overweight with a bad diet. Thanks to the facilities and staff I have completely changed. I have lost five stones, I eat healthily, and I work out regularly as there is always a new challenge to keep me interested and motivated.”
Simon, 37
“Although I was reasonably fit when I started, within a matter of weeks and with a bit of help from the staff I felt a lot fitter.”
Billy, 51
“Following a regular exercise programme in the gym has helped me become more toned and it has given me a lot more energy.”
Ellen, 43
“Being four-and-a-half stone lighter as well as having a significantly higher level of fitness has made me feel so much better about myself. My fitness programme has allowed me to keep track of my improvements, and as well as the gym I sometimes go to the classes for a change. If you’re thinking about joining, get yourself along, because trust me, you’ll never look back.”
Gail, 29
“The hardest thing you will do is walk through the door for the first time. Once you have achieved that the rest is easy. My fitness had nose-dived after a back injury when I started and from struggling to last 30 minutes I now work out for two hours at a time. I’ve also manages to stop smoking, and as the gym has plenty of equipment, you’re guaranteed a varied workout no matter what your goal are. The staff are great and always willing to give advice – all you have to do is ask!”
David, 44
"As a regular gym user (3-4 times per week), I was struggling to lose lose my festive weight gain, but in the space of four weeks with the introduction of using the Vibrostation three times a week combined with my gym visits, I am now seeing visible results. The Vibrostation has given me the tone, definition, and results I have previously struggled to achieve, all in such a short space of time, whilst reducing my actual time in the gym. I will definately be continuing to exercise with the Vibrostation, and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending it to anyone."
Jane, 57
“Although I considered myself to be in good condition for my age before I joined, I’ve managed to become stronger and more supple. Joining the gym is the best thing I have done in years.”
Duncan, 87
“Although I wasn’t overweight when I joined, i wasn’t happy with my figure and felt unfit. After following my programme for a couple of months and attending some of the classes, I actually managed to lose quite a bit of weight as well as toning up a lot. I now feel great and can do more than ever.”
Zoe, 30
"In just 12 weeks, I managed to shed almost a stone-and-a-half, lose over a fifth of my body fat, and change my body shape. As a result I feel as fit as I possibly ever have, and I have actually surprised myself. After the initial tough first few weeks, you soon find things easier and you get a buzz from working out and from the progress you are making. Variation helps and I combined two Spinning classes per week with regular gym visits on top of other activities outside of the gym. If you really WANT to do it, you WILL make the time, you WILL achieve, and you WILL see and feel the difference. If you can't make the time, then you're just kidding yourself on... I should know... I did it for years!"
Stuart, 33
“Joining Think Fitness helped me transform my body shape, my lifestyle, and my confidence, in a matter of months. I find the place to be a really motivational environment as the staff are always extremely positive about my personal progress, and it’s also a great place to meet new people.”
Graham, 36
I have been a member for two years and I can see a big difference. I've lost two stones, I feel ten years younger, and I have lots more energy. My advice is to fit three training sessions into your regular week and you will feel the benefits. Just take it one step at a time. If I can do it, anyone can do it.
Gary, 44

Weel-Kent Face 2007

Year four of the competition saw no let up in the voting stakes, with the result going right to the wire, at the final task on the final day, which was the first 'Itz A Knockout' task. Bobby Froud edged out John Tait and Molly Marshall to win the 2007 contest to collect the trophy in front of a packed Volunteer Park clubrooms.
Bobso

A very popular winner and he had to be to beat off the competition of Taitso, Bobso used the competition as a springboard to transform his lifestyle and to this day he remains one of the most regular trainers in Think Fitness. Bobso and workmate Mick Willison put together the 'Three Hills For Three Good Causes' charity walk the year after his appearance in the competition where they were joined by friends and family to climb, the Three Brethren, the Eildon Hills, and Ruberslaw in the same day raising thousands of pounds for their three good causes.
Alison

Bowler Alison Clarkson was a very keen contender during the competition and has went on to host tasks herself in 2008 and 2009. Here she demonstrates her flexibility during Donna Gibson's Gymnastics task.
Cammy

Rugby referee, self-employed painter and decorator, local opera star, and common riding enthusiast Cammy Rudkin shows off his ball juggling skills at the Hockey task. Cammy is another who regularly trains at Think Fitness.
Diane

WPC Diane Lauder is possibly the fitness person ever to take part in the competition, and she excelled at every task apart from the Clay Pigeon Shooting task at where she is pictured here. Not surprisingly Diane has yet to be promoted to the Armed Response wing of the force! When not on the beat, you'll find Diane regularly pounding the streets of Hawick and beyond. Her last contribution to the competition was a facing off with Think Fitness instructor Grant Morrison in a one-handed press-up competition in Diesels during the end of competition night out!
Hayso

Former Hawick RFC first team player, coach, and Scottish rugby international Jim Hay attempts to find inner peace during the Yoga task. Hayso hosted the competition's first rugby task at Mansfield Park in 2008, and has built up a successful property business, Jim Hay Estate Agents in recent years.
Lesley-Anne

Cornet's Lass Lesley-Anne Renwick demonstrates her fast feet over the markers at Albert Park during Rob Shiel's Football task. There was always a lot of fun and laughter when Lesley-Anne was around in the competition, and she did everything with a smile on her face as you can see in the picture.
Molly

Dance teacher Molly Marshall had her competition name changed to 'Moley' after firing into ground during the Clay Pigeon Shooting task, and everyone joking she had a killed a mole. Molly done well finishing third overall, and she is pictured hear relaxing and enjoying a fresh orange (with a treble vodka in it) in the Weel-Kent face pram during the pram race.
Nod

Roddy Graham had just completed his year as Headboy at Hawick High School when he took part in the competition. Nod saved his best until last in the competition, as he was star of the show at the end of competition night out, which involved him tearing a fitness instructor who shall remain nameless to shreds, and also an incident with a mop and bucket in Callaghans.
Shelagh

Local opera star Shelagh Duncan strikes a pose at the Vertish during the putting section of the Golf task. A keen competitor, Shelagh was behind the supply of some very dodgy outfits that Stuart, Greg, and Grant ended up having to wear on the end of competition night out.
Taitso

The ultimate competitor, runner-up John Tait was driven through the competition by his desire to win, and he drove others through the competition by laying down the gaunlet, making the other 'faces' want to beat him! Common riding enthusiast and entertainer, Linden man, family man, and financial advisor Taitso even had his own web-site (thanks to his brother-in-law) in an attempt to gather the votes in. Councillors, MSPs, and MPs take note!
