How Well Do You Really Know Your Personal Trainer?

What inspired you to become a Personal Trainer?

What is your training specialty or coaching style?

This has changed and evolved a lot over the years; it has often moved more towards the sports I was involved in at the time, but coach to client, I have always worked more predominantly with body recomposition (body fat loss and muscle gain)

Who do you typically love working with most (beginners, athletes, weight loss, rehab, etc.)?

I love working with anyone willing to put the time and effort into bettering themselves, what ever the intended goal.

What can clients expect from your coaching style and sessions?

As much as I offer online services and love that this allows me to work with a greater number of clients, my heart really is with face-to-face, demonstrational and form-corrective coaching.

What makes your training approach different from other trainers?

Unfortunately, unlike many coaches these days, I have, at some stage throughout my career, practised what I preach. I have had that body fat, I have trained with that intensity, I have been injured, and I have worked beyond limitations in order to be the best at something. You’re not just getting a coach who has sat an 8-week trainers’ course; I have put the work in for over 17 years.

What is one thing you're passionate about helping clients achieve?

Anything they were unable to achieve on their own, it takes a team; they have to work for it.

What is your proudest client transformation or success story?

In 17 years, I have shared many memorable and life-changing success stories with clients; 1 client lost a total of 62kg, literally a whole person. Many bodybuilding success stories with athletes gaining Pro status within their class. Another client had 4 miscarriages before we started working with her; she fell pregnant 10 months later.

What’s one fitness myth you’d love to bust?

That you can’t spot-reduce body fat.

What’s your favourite workout or training method?

Hypertrophy.

What’s one fun or interesting fact about you?

I competed on the 2017 Australian Ninja and I played Rugby League on the U20’s Australian team.

Why should someone choose to train with you at Powerhouse Gym Southside?

I think the 100’s of success stories speak volumes, but from face value, I take pride in running a professional, results-driven team of like-minded individuals, all with one goal: to progress.
