Embarking on my Fitness journey in my late teens, I initially hit the gym solely for aesthetic goals (we’ve all been there). However, over the years, my passion for exercise deepened, leading me to pursue further education in the field.
Studying at College and Universtiy exposed me to a healthier goal-setting, and more effective approach to achieving fitness objectives.
Today, in my early 30s, having shed 15kg, I find myself the healthiest, fittest, and strongest version of myself. I’ve transitioned from a personal focus to sharing my knowledge, teaching others, and training with top athletes in grappling/jiu-jitsu, where I regularly compete.
The turning point? Being more compassionate with myself by not demanding too much and setting realistic SMART goals alongside cultivating healthier ideals. Not every workout needs to resemble a Rocky montage in order for you to achieve progress. Consistent efforts in training, listening to your body, staying hydrated, and making mindful food choices propel you much closer to your goals. It’s about sustainability and smart choices. As they say; the people that enjoy walking will walk further than those who love the destination.
In my fitness journey, I find joy in taking classes, doing inductions, chatting with members, creating programmes, and writing fitness articles. Now, as I continue evolving in the fitness realm, I bring this holistic perspective to my coaching and training, aiming for lasting results.
