My passion for keeping healthy started the same way it did for many others – playing sport growing up. I played a wide range of sports from 4 years old up until my early 20’s and then in 2003 I certified as Personal Trainer, purely out of personal interest – I really hadn’t considered it a long-term career at that stage. I worked in the building trade where I saw guys with broken bodies from their work, drug & alcohol issues and bad relationships in general. It wasn’t long before I decided I didn’t want to become like some of the folks I’d come across so in 2010 I changed careers and started working in the Health & Fitness industry and haven’t looked back.

I genuinely love being part of an industry that allows me to lead a healthy lifestyle and be a positive role model for the people around me, and this is what gets me out of bed at crazy O’clock 6 days of the week. Especially with a young family – I’m far from perfect but I’m trying to be the best mentor I can be.

In about 2013 I found kettlebells and the enjoyment of trying to master a movement or skill pattern reminded me of training for sport. This is why I personally enjoy strength training and in particular the incorporation of kettlebells in my training. With kettlebell, barbell & calisthenic training, the & theres no hiding from bad technique. These tools will highlight any weaknesses you may have, which lets you know what you need to work on to become stronger and move more effectively.
