Success Stories
"I have finally found a form of exercise that I actually enjoy with TransformHers bootcamps. I have almost dropped a whole pant size (a lot of my clothes are too big now!) and feel great after each session. It also gives me an opportunity to get outdoors more during the week which doesn't normally happen with my usual work routine."

"Never before have I enjoyed my training sessions. I have been with TransformHERS for two months and will be signing up again for the next camp. Training with Ru is such a pleasure, I'm already seeing a difference -still a long way to go but I will get there. "
Thandi Mpanza
"Thank you for getting me back into exercise. I had not done formal exercise for about 10 years, so what a shock to the system to get straight into it. I really enjoy the sessions even though they were tough and hard. I have felt a significant difference in the tone of my body and was pleased to see my progress at the end of the programme. I am even craving exercise and do long walks and specific body training (learnt in the sessions) everyday. "

"I really enjoyed my experience at TransformHERS. It was awesome, tough at times, but so much fun. Our trainer Sibi was great and nice to meet new people! Would recommend it to anyone wanting a great work out and have a laugh!"

Active

Active rest is a phrase “coined” by athletes. These athletes would adjust their training loads to a recovery day i.e. do an activity not normally done on their designated rest day.
 
In terms of TransformHERS, I see active rest as actively being on a break from TransformHERS training, but not being sedentary!
 
This means, while you are packing your bikini for the beach or binoculars for the bus, don’t forget about your training shoes!! Going for a 30 min walk or run on holiday about every 2nd to 3rd day is a great way to keep active.
 
The benefits of active rest:
 Less risk of injury on return to training i.e. avoid too much too soon syndrome

 Maintain fitness and body mass index
