Chiswick Fitness: fit20 - Just 20 Minutes Per Week

Jane Rossiter

In 2019, having recovered from a mastectomy and knee replacement in previous years, Jane Rossiter was looking for a “new” approach to fitness. She decided to join Attila Leb’s fit20 studio (next to The Lamb) and here she shares her experience of the revolutionary training concept.

‘I think I was one of Attila’s first clients. I went for a chat and he explained clearly how one weekly 20-minute session of super slow-motion exercise delivers results. In particular, I wanted to maintain bone health and muscle strength and Attila devised a personal programme with that in mind. I’ve been going ever since. I know that I’m stronger, more upright and less tired, and I’m sure my “other” knee, which was causing trouble, would have “gone” but for fit20.

‘Attila is patient, subtly encouraging and knows when to push and when to step back. Also, I like the no-frills approach of focusing for 20 minutes without the distraction of mirrors and music. I’m so glad that I discovered fit20. I always encourage others, whatever their age or medical history, to give it a go – it works.’
