"After having a baby 7 months ago I had lost quite a bit of weight but was still, what felt like was, a long way off the size I was pre-baby and it was getting frustrating that I couldn't fit into the clothes I wore before I had our little boy. I had been thinking for a few weeks that I needed to do something about it and had started exercising but as I was a gym bunny before I felt that the exercise I was able to do at home wasn't hard enough to get the kind of results I wanted. I signed up for the GWBC at home program as with a 7 month old child I wasn't able to get to the gym and the exercise I was trying to do at home when I had a moment, weren't giving me the results I wanted. The GWBC at home program was just what I needed to give me that extra push and the exercise I needed to get great results.
Getting an email everyday with the exercises for that day is a real boost as not only does it stop it being boring but you feel that Gavin is with you ever step of the way. It also gave me the extra motivation to do the exercises and not cut corners as otherwise you have Gavin to answer to!! The exercises range from 5 minutes to 30 minutes and that was perfect for the amount of time I had each day around looking after my little boy and our busy schedule. Sometimes I'd look at what exercise I needed to do for the program and think it was going to take me an hour but in reality it was never longer than 30 minutes. The intensity ranges through the program from lung busting to just a little out of breath but as you can go at your own pace it's all attainable and as the days go by and your fitness increases you feel better and more proud of yourself. When I started the programme I was 139 pounds and at the top end of a size 12 dress size, I'm now 128 pounds and am in a size 10. In all I lost 16" and the weight and inches are still coming off. The results are fantastic, I lost 16" and 13 pounds in 28 days and feel that the weight will stay off, not like some of the fad diets and programs that are around. I will definitely be keeping up the healthy eating programme that comes with the exercises as it's yummy and wasn't hard for me to stick to. The weight and inches are still coming off even though I've now finished the at home program. I couldn't be happier!!"

"Although the photos don`t do me any favours, I personally don't think I have looked so good since leaving the forces over 20yrs ago! Which is all down to your work outs and nutritional advice, It's not been easy, but if you really want something its worth the pain, both mentally and physically and this was definitely worth it. My main aim of this trial was to try and increase my fitness to be able to complete my first triathlon, which I hope to do on Sunday. I will be competing against my gym manager who has been taking my money for the past 6 months (membership). If i beat him I will be pointing him in your direction! I would do it all again, (cause I can)."

"I want to say a huge thank you for allowing me to be a part of your programme. I thought the exercises were varied and throughout the 28 days I really noticed a difference, not only in my body, but in my levels of fitness. I think everyone gets caught up in weighing yourself twenty five thousand times a day, and taking measurements on a weekly basis was something I had never experienced before. Seeing the cms fall off was a massive booster, even more so than the weight, because it actually meant that my body was changing in shape. I signed up because I was stuck in a rut. Getting up at 7, in work by 9, leaving work at 5.30, getting home at 7, going to bed at 9. Failling that, I would go out after work and not get home til 9, in bed by 11. Or, if I was working middle east hours then up at 5, in at 7 etc. I'd fallen into a bit of a vicious circle, not being able to change my routine because I had become used to it and as a result my diet and fitness totally went out of the window. On Jan 1st I signed up to a gym, paying 75 pounds a month, and since then I can count the amount of times I have been on one hand. I needed someone to tell me on a daily basis what to do. I needed that extra push to change my current situation. Someone to tell me what to eat, when to eat, what not to eat, silly foods to avoid, introduce me to new foods and, most importantly, what exercises to do, in what order, in whatever capacity, and to do it then, now, not later, but now and then tomorrow something new. Little things, like knowing as soon as I got home to do the exercises, whether it took me 10 mins or an hour, and also to make my lunch for the next day at work and not spend a fortune at Pret!! (and consuming too many calories as well!) I have to admit, at first I didnt think the burpies and lunges and squats would have that much effect on my body but I was totally wrong!! I couldn't believe after the first week I had lost so much weight and the cms were falling off. I hated you everytime you mentioned mountain climbers... I cannot stand them but as the weeks went on I knew I was getting better at them. I "enjoyed" the morning after pain, knowing that I had had a good work out and my muscles were being used and that I was actually getting off my arse and doing something. I liked that every week you went up a notch on the intensity. I have no idea what some workouts did for the body, or which bits they were focusing on, or why we did the exercises in a certain order, althought alternating legs and arms made sense, but there was obviously a method behind it and it obviously worked!! Overall I am absolutely delighted with my results. I cant believe I lost 10 pounds in a month. The pictures really made a difference and from now on I will definitely take weekly measurements and monthly pictures to see the difference and not focus so heavily on the scales. People at work were mentioning how good I was looking and especially in the summer when you are wearing lighter and less clothes. I was quite self conscious, but I'm feeling much more confident and I know that in a few months time when I've kept this up I'll look even better! I thought the youtube clips were great. They were motivating and encouraging, some highly amusing! I'm very much a "if it isn't infront of you then I'm not going to do it person", therefore I would always write down the exercises in my diary or on a post it note so that when I had finished the routine I could tick it off, or highlight it off, which gave me that extra sense of achievement. If I don't see results instantly I get massively deflated which is why I liked your month programme as it is all about progression and maintaining and seeing results come on a weekly basis which keeps momentum and optimism high.

"I have wanted to get fit/lose weight for about 4 years, but had not been particularly successful due to things happening in my personal life (and also my ability to find excuses!!). Gavin’s email about being a guinea pig came at the most perfect time for me, when I was ready to take my health/weight/fitness totally seriously without being burdened with too many other things. It was time to stop looking at thinner/fitter girls with jealousy and try it out for myself! I had always tried to watch what I ate, and calorie counted everything, but found that I didn’t lose weight at all, mainly because I would go all out at the weekends and stuff myself with pizzas, wine, chocolate. I have been running regularly for a while, and although this helped me with my cardio vascular fitness, it hasn’t done much for toning up/losing weight. I had participated in the boot camps, but that was quite short lived, as I would focus on those 4 weeks and then let it slide after. This programme has helped me to get into a routine of daily exercise (even if it is only a plank) which is very important. It also showed me that I can fit it in whenever, wherever, I did 2 days round someone’s house which was quite amusing! Since I finished the programme I have exercised every day – including runs and similar resistance training, so I am in the mindset for doing regular exercise. I also know that, even if I am set what I initially think is a impossible exercise task, I can get through it, and normally thrash it! It has also helped me see that there are other things to eat: that I don’t need caffeine, sugar, alcohol etc, and I can be happy eating simpler healthier things. I am very happy with my results – I feel fitter and more toned, and although I have a long way to go still, I am very much ready to go for it. I lost 11.5 inches overall, and 8 lbs in weight. My arms are definitely more toned, and generally I am smaller. Although I did not run for 4 weeks, getting back to it was easier than before I started the programme, which is a bonus for me, as running is still quite important to me, and I won’t give it up completely. I would recommend this programme to anyone, in particular the diet rules, as I really felt I had achieved an awful lot sticking to the diet plan for 28 days, and finding that I did have stamina and could say no to all of those trying to offer me alcohol/fatty foods. The exercise is brilliant, can be done almost anywhere, and you know that it will more than likely be over in about 20 minutes, which is great. Above all – the exercise produces great results. My arms wouldn’t look like they do at the moment with just the nutritional aspect. And – anyone can do this, it may look difficult, and it is, but it isn’t impossible! So, thank you Gavin, I honestly cannot wait until version 2.0!!! Will be brilliant!"

"Like most people I go through phases where I workout a lot and watch what I eat and I maybe lose a few pounds along the way, but then something interrupts my routine and all the hard work stops and I'm back to square one. I've tried well known diet groups, I've tried gym memberships, I've tried making up my own diet and exercise programs but nothing keeps me motivated as the results were never that impressive. I've previously attended Gavin's bootcamps so when he asked me if I wanted to try his home program I jumped at the chance because, although it sounded intense and challenging, I knew i'd get results and I wanted it to be the start of me changing my bad habits for good.
I thought I knew how I should be eating and how regularly I should exercise but the thought of someone directing me from my own home each day was very appealing. It would keep me motivated. The best thing about this program for me is that I now know how much better I feel when I eat correctly. I don't need chocolate or junk every day, I don't need to eat until my stomach hurts and I don't need to eat mindlessly whilst watching TV at night. In the past I had chosen to do all that but once the good nutrition kicked in I realised it gave me more energy, made me feel healthier and helped me to make better choices when I came to the next meal time. Of course it wasn't easy. I was so used to eating chocolate and drinking cola that I missed it terribly and the cravings didn't disappear quickly at all for me so it was a constant mind battle. Even now after I've finished the 28-days I crave it but I know I don't need it. I may have it now and again but nothing like before. Just a quick warning, the mid-point is the toughest when it comes to nutrition. We all experienced it but we all pushed through it and got great results and satisfaction from completing the program. I promise you will be glad you did too. Over 28-days I lost a massive 17.25 inches. I'm absolutely thrilled. I dropped a dress size and gained a lot of energy. It really has made me determined to carry on and add even more inches to that loss. I can't recommend this program enough. Its not a fad diet, its not a magic wand to fat loss and its not something you can go into half-heartedly. What it is though is a step-by-step guide to improving your fitness, trimming the fat from your body and boosting your energy levels. The support you get from Gavin is priceless and really helped me keep going when I wanted to stop. Its not easy but completely worth it. Personally I will carrying on with a lot of the nutritional advice which I would not have thought would be the case when I started. It's a cliche but if I can do this then anyone can......and should!!"

(Lost 7lbs and 9" from her waist!)
"I absolutely loved the programme. I liked how you (Gavin) came across – not harsh or aggressive and I adore your assistant – the puppy! At first glance the programme seems hard, but in reality its not. You are delivered an exercise programme daily plus you have Gavin’s support at the end of the email, and I liked the fact you did not have to wait an age for a reply! Also, as a working mum, being able to train at home with the kids in the other room is great. For me the reason I wanted to lose weight and get fit is mainly because I am getting married next year and although I will be a 40-something bride I want to walk down the aisle looking my best, I am aiming for a size 10. I do not want to waddle and feel self-conscious as all eyes will be on me. Also my weight had been affecting my joints, especially my knees, so I knew I had to do something. In the past I have tried everything – the ritual humiliation of weight watchers and being weighed in front of people, not losing and being told off!, going to a gym and after a few weeks losing motivation because I didn’t know what to do. I did, a couple years ago, do a 4 week boot camp in a local park, it was good but as a busy working mum, it was difficult to fit the sessions in. Although I did not lose a huge amount of weigh (in total about 8 pounds) I did lose a lot of inches. Before I started the programme I was, if I admit to myself, a size 18, pretending to be a size 16. I am now a comfortable size 14. Losing a massive 9 inches off my waist so much so my H2B is complaining I have no belly to rub. My mum who is very quick to tell me when I have gained weight said I was looking slim and she could see that my bum and hips were shrinking. Most of all I feel great in my self: more confident. I am less grouchy (I think eating clean has help with the elimination of the sugar and bad saturated fats). The programme has given me the kick up the backside I needed to start to lose the remaining 2 stone before my wedding and for life!"

"I thought the programme was excellent. I signed up because I was fed up of being flabby and wanted to make a positive step in the right direction to non- flabbiness. Having had a baby and being at home with her or lunching out means it's been tough to motivate myself into an exercise programme or eating plan. I thought your programme would give me the kick up the bum I needed. I love spinning but trying to fit in getting to the classes at fixed times of the day was really difficult whilst looking after a baby and with a husband who works shifts. Having a link sent through of exercises which I could fit in at any time of the day was ideal, as was the fact that I could do them in front of the TV when I needed distraction from the pain! I did them when she was napping or when she’d gone to bed in the evening. I did try to do them when she was awake once or twice but she laughed at me so much that it was too much of a distraction J I found the exercises were good, some days I felt they were within my ability, some days that they really pushed me and some days that they nearly killed me! The booklet was good to explain initially how to do them and the videos demonstrated them well, and of course being able to email you for clarification was great. The results speak for themselves and I'm really pleased, I can see a noticeable difference in my body and I’m especially pleased with the effect it’s had on my post-baby tummy. I feel much more confident and able to wear what I want to from my pre-baby wardrobe, rather than what I can fit into. I’m also amazed that having previously been unable to do a single press up I can now do loads down on the floor! I'll be carrying on the main elements of the eating plan (though I will treat myself to a well deserved wine every now and again!). I am going to redo the programme and can't wait for 2.0 to come out! I’m hooked now. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending the programme to my friends - a couple of them have weddings they want to lose weight for coming up so I’ll be steering them in your direction! Let me know when 2.0 arrives on the scene!"

"Thank you. This has been worth every penny and I have lost 9.5 lbs and 4 inches in total unfortunately 2 from my bust but we can’t have everything hey? I am going to take a lot of this on board as I have really enjoyed it especially the nutrition side. My skin is the best it’s ever been and I have slept amazingly well. I wasn’t massive to begin with but was feeling chubby and thought I ate relatively well to begin with but this has proved so many things and I now have a better understanding."
