Injured Knee
I’ve started getting much more motivated to get back into fitness since getting back to Oz, and since finding a wonderful park down the road Alex and I regularly take Connor down there to play and I do some mini fitness sessions for myself. I’ve been getting motivated to do intervals, jogging up the hill [...]
Feeling a bit more positive
I’ve had some great replies on the below topic on the post I made on the forum, and people have given some really great advice. I was a PT so I know what I need to do to get myself back into shape again. The only thing is, that even Personal Trainers need a Personal [...]
ok ok everyone, here’s an update
ugh, it’s been 25 days since I’ve updated my blog and I’ve been harrassed over it, haha. So I’m relenting, here it is, with also a partial explanation as to why I haven’t updated.
I’ve made some big decisions just lately, and after reviewing some personal issues I decided to explore other options open to me. [...]City to Bay update - 7 weeks to go
On the weekend I held the beep test on the Sunday for a group of people. After the weather looked a bit dodgy it ended up turning out ok, and we did the test on a small park about 20 mins walk from Zest. That worked out well, since we had a good walk as a [...]
City To Bay Update - 8 weeks to go!!!
City to bay training went well again. More people are expressing interest to me and while there were just 3 people on the walk on Saturday there have been quite a few more who couldn’t make it this weekend. Expect this to become a bit of a social meeting point aswell!
The run went fantastic and [...]City to Bay group training
The training program I’ve started up has kicked off well this weekend. I’ve had enough interest to also put on the walking group on Saturdays, so although there was only 2 people this Saturday, there were at least a couple who couldn’t make it this weekend. However I will definately continue the walking group on [...]
City to Bay fun run
I’ve decided to do a training program for my clients, and others that might want to join in, for those interested in running the City to Bay on 16th September.
I will be holding training sessions on Sundays at 12.30pm commencing 8th July.
Not only will this be a great goal for my clients and others, but [...]Go Yellow!
Finally, everything has fallen into place! For those that have been following my blog will know that I’ve been working as a Club Trainer (red shirt) at Zest for a few months now, and part of the process is that once you’re “ready” you switch over to running your own personal business as a Personal [...]
#1 Club Trainer
This week is full of highs and lows, to the extreme. After the great holiday and then the bad news, now I get back to work to find out I achieved number 1 Club Trainer in the state last month. I got 2nd a couple of months ago, now I’m number 1. It was the [...]
2nd
At Zest we get regular employee newsletters, and they list the top BodyTrainers and Club Trainers in the state. For Club Trainer guess who got 2nd in the state!!!!
I wasn’t quite expecting that, in fact, I’d barely noticed that section on the newsletter. So when my name was on there it took me by surprise. It’s [...]BodyTrainer Graduation
As part of the BodyTrainer course we get an official “graduation”. I think it’s basically just an excuse for the PTM’s to drink really but hey, I think it’s a good excuse
As part of it we get formally introduced to the Buffalo Club and we pledge our allegance. This is a Les Mills [...]Last day of BodyTrainer
Well the last day was today! yay…….I can finally get a day off now, since I haven’t had a day off in weeks. I’m hanging out for next Friday where I can just spend a day sleeping in, doing nothing, lumping around and hybernating. Awesome.
It was a bit difficult cuz the course was so far [...]Bodytrainer
Did second day of bodytrainer course yesterday. Have to say I get a bit fidgety sitting on my butt all day. Was quite amusing cuz yesterday I ended up sitting next to Elle (Mel and Elle…….oh my……how confusing ) and we couldn’t help giggling at one point. She made a ring out of the [...]
24 hours
wow, yesterday I had to get up at 4.30am to do a Club Trainer shift…….and then I ended up going to bed 4.30am the next evening (morning?). That’s what you get when you talk too much
Had my first assessment for BodyTrainer today with my PTM. Went rather smoothly. We ended up talking mainly [...]Club Trainer @ Zest
I’ve started working at Zest now as a Club Trainer. This is a fancy name for gym instructor, cert 3 qualified. Gotta say getting up at 6am was a bit tough, haven’t done that for a while, haha.
It was a great opportunity to get the chance to talk with some people that do [...]
