{"id":29248,"title":"June Club Member of the Month","description":"Club member of the month for June!","content":"

Halfway through the year! And hurtling our way towards the end of term. Club members have been hard at work continuing their two handed swing challenge alongside the snatch. It\u2019s been exciting to watch everyone continue to make progress, get stronger and swing heavier bells.<\/p>

June also saw a number of new club members join and it\u2019s been enjoyable coaching and helping them to get to grips with the basics. Did you know that once you\u2019ve completed a Hels Bells induction you get to train for the month for free? The next induction won\u2019t take place now until September so book your space before they go!<\/p>

This month our club member award goes to an individual who returned to kettlebells about 9 months ago having been a member before covid.<\/p>

\"pjwsliph9isyxgovfmw0iv85hvd9qn5y9zutxb3izdcmaaha.jpeg.jpeg?w=1140&v=2\"Since returning Jo has been an inspiration. Working hard to regain her strength and showing huge determination and tenacity. Jo contracted covid at the beginning of the pandemic before vaccinations were in place and since then she has suffered with long covid which means she battles, and continues to battle, with extreme fatigue and tiredness.<\/p>

\"urhfuduulsgnuxggfccg5ogkhqdpulaogpmckxzzjmzcncle.jpeg.jpeg?w=1140&v=2\"Despite the challenges Jo faces she continues to train every week. Being sensible with her weight selection and the reps completed. As coach I ensure alternatives are given to allow Jo to join in and succeed, but also allowing Jo longer rest periods to allow recovery and prevent the fatigue taking over. <\/p>

\"igyse93ngbtpjgiaibekdrbxrkootf6awp48imjxsk7fevhw.jpeg.jpeg?w=1140&v=2\"Slowly but surely Jo is literally going from strength to strength, is managing to complete more each session and most recently did a whole session without missing any reps or sets and is now swinging heavier weights. A huge achievement. <\/p>

Jo has fitted in well to the group she is kind and has a great sense of humour; and everyone is incredibly supportive of her. The Tuesday morning session is not just about getting strong but everyone supports each other through the trials and tribulations that life presents. <\/p>

It is an absolute pleasure to coach and support Jo and I am delighted she has put her trust in me. You are to be commended for all you have achieved and will continue to achieve moving forward. Watching your strength return is a privilege and you totally deserve the award of Hels Bells club member of the month for June!<\/p>
