…and now “harden the F@CK up” thanks to ASN
" Overview (A Little About Me)I have always done some sport all through my life, was a high level competitive swimmer since 8 years of age. So, being fit and active has always been part of my life. I’m just a down to earth, practical, happy person who takes each day as it comes; I love to joke around and be cheeky.
My “real” fulltime job is with Queensland Health, but my “fun” job is teaching group fitness classes (RPM, PUMP, Thump, BootCamp) ….AND being a personal trainer to my clients (when I’m not in competition prep) … Oh, AND do my own training on top of that! Yes, no rest for the wicked!
Besides my active life, I live in Townsville (which I totally love) and we pretty much have a zoo! 3 cats, 2 dogs, 1 cockatoo, a big Marine tank… and a ‘partridge in a pear tree’.
InterestsEating Ice cream!... Pity I'm not allowed to eat it in competition prep.
Keeping fit and healthy and I think I am now addicted to Figure/Body Building comps!
I love motor bike riding – I have a Suzuki GSXR1000 K2 motorbike (Shaun Giles race replica one of a kind.)
Relaxing, taking my dogs to the beach, watching movies
Favourites (Food, Bodyparts, People)Food: Ice cream
Body parts: I’m a legs girl, but generally look past the body and love great smiles and eyes that sparkle.
People: Just people that make me laugh or anyone carrying ice cream for meeee!! Just similar minded people who like to joke around.
Motivations (What Motivates Me)Lots of different things… love seeing mybody change, love pushing myself, other competitors, being a good role model, my cycle class participants who follow me thought my competition process. Training History (Years, Location, Trainer)I have trained by myself since I was 18 and always generally did weights and classes. It also was dependent upon what sport I was into – I did a bit of triathlons then got back into the gym after I had knee surgery.
Now, I train under Rosa-Maria Romero… I’m one of her FITCHIX! And I love it!
Training Schedule (Training Style and Tips)Different dependent upon my on/off season
Generally 5-6 times a week, reps change too, super sets are my fave.
Cardio Schedule
Morning cardio, some track sessions and Plyometrics – I LOVE PLYOMETRICS NOW!
I’m lucky that I teach at least 3 cycle classes a week, too.
Nutrition (Examples of My Diet)Unfortunately I can’t eat ice cream all day but I eat the usual clean diet: egg whites, oats, chicken, fish, greens, sweet potato, protein shakes.
My fave quick meal is: 1 tub cottage cheese + 1 tin sun dried tomato flavoured tuna + diced celery all mixed.
Competition History2007 ANB NQ Championships - Townsville
2009 ANB Coral Coast - Townsville
2009 ANB Asia Pacific International – Gold Coast
Goals (Future Plans and Career Expectations)Keep on pushing, maintaining and ensuring that I enjoy the process along the way.
...(maybe the “poster” girl for Townsville ASN’s new store LOL)
Media Coverage (Calendars, Magazines and Newspapers)Hmm… I wish! See above LOL Best Advice (Fitness, Health and Training)Best advice given to me: “Trust the process!”
Best advice I could give: “remember your goal, remember its hard – if it was easy everyone would do it, eat clean, be happy with what you are doing, smile regularly”
