Health and Fitness Intentions
Natalie
I am going to strengthen my left knee to the point that I can do a lunge without knee pain. Also to be able to get my feet off the ground in crow pose and to continue to maintain the healthy lifestyle my body deserves.
Sally
I would like to get into front splits and generally improve my flexibility all over. Increase my spine flexibility in both forward and backward bending. And continue to find the balance between health and fitness on the one hand and food and alcohol decadence on the other.

Laura
My exercise goal for 2021 is to achieve as much consistency as possible by building healthy habits and sticking to them. I want to run my first half marathon (I’ve entered the vitality big half in April) and to complete an 8k open water swim (Coniston in September).
Aga
I'd like to be more consistent and make exercise a habit, a part of my daily routine, so it's not just a way to loose weight or become fitter but something that helps me focus on my health both physically and mentally. And of course it would also be great if I could rock my bikini this summer and be more comfortable with my body. I'm on 68kg atm so I think it's reasonable to get under 60kg!💪
Esme
I want to do a 10K in 2021. I also want to be able to do really nice, smart looking, good form press-ups not from my knees.
Jon
1) Do all weights classes where possible and build muscle with emphasis on chest.
2) Do more classes than Hannah :)
Dave
Recover from knee injury, Swim once a week and drop back to 78kg.
Regain fitness to allow long runs.
Train for London Marathon,(whenever it occurs) and get back to at least sub 3:15.
Julian
My main goal is to improve my consistency and commitment to health and exercise to hopefully see my fitness improve steadily and regularly over the year.
Ellie & Michal
Reach our goal weights (60kg for me, 99kg for Michal) and...a healthy lifestyle if for life not just for January.
John
Increase my general flexibility.
Do perfect pistol squats.
Get my 400 metres time down to 56 secs.
Rachel
My 2021 intentions are to give my health an early boost by doing Dry January. During the year I will do 3 x bootcamps each week where at all possible and by the summer be able to hold a side plank for one minute (which I find very difficult!).
Farhia
To be able to do 20, 30 press ups on my toes, comfortably. And adding Yoga to my exercise routine, ideally once a week.
Charlie
To get and stay fit and tone my upper arms.
Sophie
My intention for this year is to continue improving my fitness, keep coming to boot camp and get closer to achieving my goal weight. Want to ensure I stay active even if we are being told to remain inside.
Carol
I want to get back to good eating habits (I know weight shouldn’t be a focus but always is) to be 78 kg by Easter and 75kg by my birthday in June.
Keeping up good exercise habits in 2021 to also maintain good mental heath which I (like so many other people) found so important throughout everything which 2020 threw at me.
80/20 diet and exercise without being boring!
Iona
I would like to run a 5k this year and to consistently participate in exercise classes to try and improve my self esteem and mental well-being!
Mavis
I want to be able to do a pistol squat and the splits. I want to be a healthy weight on my 60th birthday in 2021 and be strong so will continue with the strength work and weights
Julie
My 2021 intention is .. even when life gets back to normal I want to ensure I still take sufficient time for my own health & well being. I run at the moment but would love to achieve 5k in under 25 mins. I also want to be able to achieve unassisted get ups...and even enjoy it!
Marta
My new year intention is to pick up bootcamp where I left it before I got pregnant, and be a fit mum!
Can't wait to start again.
Shauna
I want to reach my goal weight and then learn to maintain. Also in 2021 I'm going to be able to run the loop of the park and up that hideous steep hill without dying.
Shierly
My intention for 2021 is to reach my ideal weight and be able to maintain it in the long run. I want to get stronger core and upper body strength. I want to re-build my running stamina and go back to running 5 k or even more.
Jane
My goal is to be stronger & more energised. I find when I am regularly bootcamping that's how I feel.
Jo
I quite fancy doing another ultramarathon at some point this year when/if it’s safe enough to do races again. So I guess my goal would be to make myself fit and strong enough to achieve another ultramarathon finish.
Sasha
Exercise, get fitter, balance my eating habits. Another goal for this year is to either complete tough murder challenge or British heart foundation bike ride to Brighton (have done it 3 times before I had kids).
Hina
I want to reduce to at least 60kg at some point in time but more importantly be able to run with my 8 year old daughter!
