Here you will find a quick roundup of our progress and a summary of recent research surrounding our founding concept: ‘exercise is a medicine’.
The past months have been, to say the least, pretty wacky! But Bounce Back has worked hard to adapt and bring exercise sessions to the comfort of your home by releasing our YouTube channel and starting online exercise sessions (get in touch to find out more). Using baked beans for bicep curls and bleach bottles for squats, we have strived to keep everyone exercising during the lockdown.
I would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported Bounce Back Exercise over the past few months. From those training, to our partners, to all our followers on social media….YOU ARE FANTASTIC!
I look forward to sharing more about the exciting plans we have in store for the coming months.
With very best wishes,
Beth
Last week, I had a phone call asking if we are really open. Yes, yes we are!
Herts Live introduced the #IamOpen campaign to support local businesses beginning to reopen. It was great to be a part of this campaign and share the motivation behind Bounce Back.
