Get up, lace up and turn up, with Todd Liubinskas

For Todd Liubinskas, being fit goes way beyond wanting to look good. As a fitness entrepreneur, personal trainer, and the fitness director of Men’s Health magazine, Todd believes the real benefits of fitness lie in providing people with an outlet for self-care and connection, both with themselves and the community. His qualifications as both a personal trainer and strength & conditioning coach have seen him train elite athletes including the Wallabies, New Zealand Rugby and the Aussie Sevens, and several years ago he transitioned successfully from a corporate career to the fitness sector to start multiple businesses, including the popular 440 Run Club. However, COVID brought unexpected challenges to the fitness sector in 2020, with Todd forced to shut his gym business and pivot to online training. Now, Todd is an advocate for health, fitness and wellbeing with a TEDx talk under his belt, championing the importance of community connection through fitness initiatives like 440. Tune into hear more about how Todd motivates himself to get up at 4am every Saturday to run up a steep hill with up to 150 people, and his advice for those of us wanting to take the first step into a more active life.
