As you probably already know by now, this summer 4 incredibly brave members of our team took on an intense 8-week challenge that pushed them to their limits — both physically and mentally.

Guided by expert professionals, each volunteer was thrown into a sport that they’d never have even considered taking on before. Alice got her skates on, Stephen leapt into parkour, Punit stepped into the Muay Thai ring, and Kiran roped up for the climb of her life.
They documented their progress week-by-week in vlogs and interviews (which if you’ve somehow managed to miss until now, they’re definitely still worth checking out… even if just for Alice’s falls).
We made sure to cover every area of their journey — from Stephen’s meal prep plan and Alice’s low-calorie nutrition guide, to Punit’s explosive shoulder workout and Kiran’s strength & endurance training plan.
But, like they say, all good things must come to an end. We’ve had the privilege of witnessing every high and low, and how each volunteer has been truly changed by this experience.

Lauren is an English Literature graduate originally from the South. She’s always loved swimming, has discovered the power of weight training over the past few years, and has lots of room for improvement in her weekly hot yoga class.
On the weekends she’s usually cooking or eating some kind of brunch, and she enjoys trying out new recipes with her housemates – especially since shaking off student habits, like mainly surviving off pasta. Above all, she’s a firm believer in keeping a balance between the gym and gin.
