The Programme, week 1: Trainer's comments on Sarah
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Lynne Wardle: Sarah's current level of weekday activity is fairly low. She walks or jogs for approximately 15 minutes per day to and from the Tube and tries to use the stairs whenever possible. In recent months she has been more active at weekends, decorating and refurbishing her new house.
Her stability and flexibility are good but she needs to work to improve her strength, body tone and aerobic fitness. She has slight back pain, which is probably the result of her sedentary job, and she often feels tired. She also has quite weak knees that sometimes irritate her when running.
Sarah would like to lose body fat and improve her general level of fitness, making it a part of her everyday lifestyle. By adopting a regular exercise programme, focusing on both aerobic and strength training, Sarah should eventually attain her goals.
