Marie is keen to get back on the fitness treadmill

Sometimes we all have slow weeks on the fitness treadmill

We all have days and weeks when we lose track of our fitness goals. Sometimes it's a lack of energy, or motivation, or because of unforeseen circumstances. The key to getting over this minor obstacle is to make sure you jump back on the fitness treadmill just as soon as you can. Leaving the exercise routine for too long, it can be all too tempting to give up on it completely.

For Marie, this last week or so has been so busy that she has managed only one 5k run. The mum-of-one has had little spare time around caring for her young daughter and jetting off to spend a few days with her husband on holiday in America.

Instead of being despondent, Marie is determined to do even more keep-fit sessions next week. After all, she has done so well with her fitness over the last six weeks. Through a schedule of running and ThinQFitness on-line fitness videos, Marie has been delighted to lose a full inch from each thigh.

She says: "What with life, caring for my daughter and then a spontaneous opportunity to spend some time with my husband in Las Vegas I had to let the fitness training slide a bit. I was a little downhearted at the time but I know that I will be even keener to get back on with it this coming week.

"It's Anna's Body Blitz that has been the great find for me and I think I'll need to do a double session next week to make up for doing less recently! Anna really knows how to put your through your fitness paces."
