Kathryn Barker or Cougar Kath as she is has been nicknamed started her journey weighing in at 83 kg. She was overweight not exercising at all, completely unfit and she most certainly did not have a healthy outlook on life. One of the key factors that prompted Kath to consider personal training was that she didn’t have enough energy to keep up with her two young boys.

Kath ate as she pleased not knowing how it was affecting her body. Eating junk food and not knowing how to exercise was really doing damage to Kath’s body and health. She suffered back pain and her lifestyle was gradually deteriorating bit by bit due to her self esteem and self confidence ever diminishing as she continued to gain weight.

Kath now weighs in at a healthy 68 kg and has accomplished many great feats such as 500 kg on the leg press and running the 10km event at the Gold Coast Marathon! Her self-confidence has been fully restored, she has lots more energy as well as significantly toned up sexy body! Kath plans to enter in the Half Marathon next year.

Kath says:

“Something that definitely changed is my size! I loved throwing out all the clothes that were too big for me which was basically my entire wardrobe.”

When asked how she kept so motivated Kath’s response was

“My Personal Trainer has been behind me the whole way.”

Kath has now made exercise part of her lifestyle. She loves the social aspect of Fitness matters and exercises everyday (with a rest day on Sunday). Each week Kath does 2 Personal Training sessions and the advice that Kath wants to share with others is:

“Make the commitment to yourself to get a personal trainer to help you to achieve your goals and surround yourself with positive, motivated and focused people because it helps to keep you focused and on track.”
