Kerry is an ICU nurse who joined Gym & Trim around a year ago, looking for a more sustainable and supportive way to improve her fitness.
The Challenge
Kerry’s fitness journey started young, but like many, it was filled with years of yo-yo dieting.
She had tried different approaches over time, but nothing truly stuck or felt sustainable long-term.
Deep down, she knew she needed something different — something that would actually last.
Why They Nearly Didn't Start
Before joining the small group programme, Kerry had her doubts.
Training in a group felt intimidating — she worried about whether she’d be strong enough or if everyone else would be far ahead of her.
That fear of being judged or not keeping up can stop a lot of people from ever starting.
The Turning Point
Once Kerry joined, she quickly realised this wasn’t like other gyms she’d tried before.
The level of support stood out straight away — from coaches checking in, to messages when she missed a session, to genuine care about her progress.
And beyond that, the encouragement from other members made a huge difference.
The Results
Since joining, Kerry has:
Built confidence in training with others
Moved away from yo-yo dieting towards a more sustainable approach
Stayed consistent with her workouts
Felt supported by both coaches and members
Found a community that genuinely cares
Here’s what Kerry had to say:
“There’s so much support… even from other members. That sense of community is so different from any other gym I’ve been with.”
What This Means for You
If you’ve spent years starting and stopping, or feel intimidated by group training — Kerry’s story shows it doesn’t have to be that way.
With the right support and environment, you can finally find something that sticks.
