JOIN GYMOPHOBICS
GYM BUDDY SCHEME
Now you can get even more support for your weight loss goals at Gymophobics when you sign up for our unique Gym Buddy scheme.
Register by completing the Gym Buddy Application Form and we will select a suitable member to become your 'Gym Buddy' while you become hers. With a Gym Buddy you always have a friend at the other end of a phone or computer whenever you need encouragement, support or a motivational boost.
Your Gym Buddy will be someone with similar goals and needs to yourself so you will be there for her when she needs a shoulder to lean on, just as she will always be there for you.
Together, you will be able to support each other and because neither of you will want to let the other down, you will be able to support each other sharing thoughts, ideas, diet tips and friendship to ensure that, come what may, you both achieve your goals.
With the Gym Buddy scheme you immediately have a new friend, but it is a friend with a difference. Unlike your other friends, this friend wants to lose weight every bit as much as you do. And she will know what you are going through. She is someone you can share your thoughts and insecurities with and know that she will understand. She won't try to bluff you and tell you that you don't need to lose weight and are fine as you are. She won't tell you it is fine to blow your diet or miss a Gym session.
Instead, your Gym Buddy will tell you what you need to hear, when you need to hear it! That keeping to your weight loss programme is important. That if you slip, you need to get straight back on the programme and if at times you don't seem to be getting anywhere, then that's no reason to give up. She is someone who will be able to reassure you that you will achieve your goals and more importantly, that you are worth the effort!
And having to support, motivate and encourage your Gym Buddy to achieve her results, will help you to achieve your own. It will act as a constant reminder that if she can do it, then so can you. You will even benefit from a little bit of competition with your Buddy, seeing who can lose the most each week.
Having someone to talk to about your weight and slimming progress can make a huge difference. And when it is someone who is NOT a close friend or relative and is someone who probably lives far away in another town, this can often be easier than having to share your thoughts with someone close. You will have less inhibitions in unburdening yourself with a stranger and when that stranger needs your support as much as you need theirs, it becomes even easier
Check out the Gym Buddy Rules & Conditions. Then, if you feel it is for you, complete the Application Form and Email it back to us. Once you are accepted on to the scheme we will send you details of your new Buddy. We will also put you on the Gym Buddy mailing list and start to send you the Gym Buddy Support Sheets. These will be Emailed to you to support your weight loss endeavours with tips and motivational ideas.
