'Fun, informative and hard work'

Roger is a satisfied customer: 'I attended a Commando Fitness session that Tom Wyles took at Farnham Park in May. Actually I was a little reluctant to go but went to keep my friend happy! I thought I was going to get beasted and be shouted at for an hour. To my great surprise I found it to be fun, informative as well as hard work.

'I’m 55, unfit and have not trained for 15 years but Tom managed to tailor the bootcamp to the benefit of each individual. Since then I’ve attended 2 more evening boot camps and committed to 3 sessions per week. Already I feel improvements. I’m much more alert at work (no bad thing) feel great and happier with myself.'
