I am 24 years old, I live at home with my parents and work as a travel agent full time. My family have always been into fitness, Growing up I was involved with tennis, basketball, soccer and swimming. I remember always going away with my family getting up at 4 or 5 in the morning to spend the day following dad around doing Triathlons. As most teenagers I stopped keeping fit and spent all my time with my friends, 2 years ago I joined the gym again after meeting a very motivated local football player, I wanted to have more things in common so I started at my local gym with a girlfriend. I was really enjoying it when my dad asked if I wanted to do a Spartan 5km obstacle race, wanting to spend more time with my dad doing something he enjoyed and always wanted his children to join we completed it hand in hand and we never looked back, after the 5km challenge we sourced out a local crossfit gym our coach and the environment really opened my eyes into the fitness world and I am so thankful it did because it made me realise this is my calling this is what I was suppose to do. We have been there for nearly a year now, committed in 3 Spartan races now and I have completed my crossfit southeast coach development program.
My dream is to create my own brand / gym that is different to a regular gym but not as overwhelming as crossfit, to combine army training exercises using little to no machines, After establishing my gym I would love to add in nutrient..selling home-made paleo products but also having free cooking lessons for my clients that need a little health when it comes to healthy food, I would love to team up with a physio who would come in once or twice a week. Once I start to get a medium group of people join the gym I would love to hold my own obstacle challenges that the public can join.
This is going to be a very long journey but a journey I am so excited to start and am so passionate about, I have taken my first steps by signing up to Fit College online course, It is the best step I have made.
