At what age did you start to find your love for health and fitness?
I started loving sports at a very young age, around 6 or 7, but fell in love with health and fitness as a 16 year old when I started going to the gym and lifting weights.
What is your proudest achievement?
Definitely my most recent F45 Playoffs competition win in 2019 which had the strongest field of all time and meant that I have won the competition a record 3 times.
How do you stay motivated?
I always try to have something else right in front of me and a short term goal to aim for. This helps you build up to those larger goals over time.
What’s next on the list after winning the F45 play-offs for the third time?
Number 4 is always on the mind of course! I also want to diversify a little more this year as well to keep things fresh and keep challenging myself physically.
What obstacles have you had to overcome?
When I made the decision to finish up playing soccer, mentally for me that was really hard. The training and traveling in particular was getting too much and it's a young persons sport to get picked up professionally so coming into my mid-20's meant my chances were diminishing. I have nothing obvious to focus my energy on at the time so this period was my most challenging.
What is the quote you live by?
You're only as good as your last workout.
Tell us about your nutrition, how do you stay on track with your diet?
Nutrition is everything. For every athlete or gym-goer trying to lose weight or put on muscle, it is all about recovery. The faster you can recover, the more you can get out of each day.
