Day 704 - What would you do with 90 days?
By the time I can reopen my Studio it will be approximately 90 days since it closed. Today I reflect on what I’ve done with my time. Surprising....

In Australia we are about to hit our Winter which brings with it a temptation to become seasonally health and fitness focused. What I mean is someone that hibernates for the Winter season with their exercise and becoming less focused on nourishing your body with healthy and nutritious foods, only to come out of hibernation when the weather becomes sunny and warm. Sound familiar? But how is this Winter for Aussies going to be different to others? This year we are dealing with covid-19 as well. Wi...
Your health and body transformation comprises of a number of components, like links in a chain. From your mindset, to your goals, your emotional state, your food, training sessions, tracking of each step. How strong is the chain? As strong as it's weakest link. Are ALL your links strong?
Today I'm reflecting about what I've missed over this past 9 weeks of coronavirus shutdown. What have you missed?
On fire today making magnificent progress with my latest online program
What a nice surprise it was to hear yesterday that from 1 June we can have up to 20 people again in our Boot Camp classes and from 22 June we can open up our Studio again and gyms throughout Victoria can recommence the road back to helping more people achieve their health and fitness goals. I know so many of you have missed training in our Studio ..... not much longer to wait!! Such excitement! But let's still keep doing the right thing with our own personal hygeine and social distancing as we w...
With the lockdown in my State reaching the 8 week mark, you can tell that the impact it's having on some people is becoming stronger and making them more anxious and uncertain about their future. Today I'm focusing on the topic of mental health and how there is light at the end of the tunnerl.
I've been acused of being boring before. BUT, listen to today why I say that boring can be sexy! This is powerful.
Where do you place integrity in your value and belief system? When your back is against the wall your true colours come shining through. Unfortunately during this pandemic we're seeing a number of questionable behaviours from people around the world. Taking advantage of the vulnerable, quesitonable ethics and poor behaviour.
Today I had my second DEXA scan to check my body fat percentage and see the exact results of my hard work over the past 9 weeks. This is an exciting conversation
Never pass up the opportunity to implement the knowledge you gain
Today I’m getting practical with planning my next few days with a very hectic weekend - getting it all done
Ask yourself.
Why do some people achieve phenomenal success with their health, fitness and wellness whilst the majority fail? I say "fail" using the criteria of overweight and obesity - almost 70% of Australians (and Americans) are considered either overweight or obese. To me that is failing to achieve success in your health and fitness. But some just excel. Why?
Today I received a glimpse into the future. Take a listen
We all want change of some sort; health, fitness, weight, money, career, partner. Yet strangely most people don’t respond to change well. People fight it. Change doesn’t have to be big things. I prefer little changes implemented consistently with a much bigger pay off in the future.
One of the most anticiapted announcements in Victoria's recent history came out at 11am this morning. We are moving to roll-back some of the COVID-19 restricitons and we are able to start getting our lives back to the first stage of normality. Stage 2 will be announced in 3 weeks time. Great first step, listen in to how it affects me and my businesses.
On this special Mother's Day I take some time out to reflect on my late Mum and how some of most powerful and instrinsic traits live on through me. How has your Mum helped shape you?
Today I'm interviewing Loz Antonenko, the Healthy Habits Coach. We're discussing how to stay focused, motivated and be an action taker in isolation.
My week started poorly but has finished strongly. Work ethic, strength, courage, focus, determination & a never die attitude to consistently do whatever it takes has made 5 days later completely different.
Don’t wait for the COVID-19 restrictions to be lifted to start getting back on track for your health & fitness. Start now!!
Such a great topic and always great connecting with Vanessa in powerful discussions. There's bucket fulls of gold during our conversation, so please dig in and enjoy!!
Today my first internationally published book is available for sale in US bookstores!!!!
Somedays are just great. Today was one of them. No matter what the challenges, I conquered them.
Wow! What a great productive day. Today I was able to chunk 6 hour blocks of uninterrupted time and got an incredible amount of work done. Felt like I made a week of progress in one day. Super powerful! Love it!
In the most challenging times seen since the Great Depression you could be excused for feeling scared, uncertain, confused, disillusioned and angry. But is that you? Or, do you see this time as opportunity?
Our much missed Fitness Trainer, Elizabeth Staindl , also works as an Emergency Department Nurse and has been spending 50+ hours per week over the past 6 weeks working in Fever Clinics supporting our community through the coronavirus crisis. Elizabeth took some time out of her schedule to tell me how she's personally managing her own health, fitness and wellness as well as what it's like at the coal-face of the disease. On behalf all of us, THANK YOU for your selfless work in putting yourself at...
Am I starting to burn out? My body is talking to me & I’m listening.
This is a great interview with my friend Heather Joy Bassett, World Champion Lacrose player, International Author, Speaker, Podiatrist and Coach. We're talking about a range of great topics including what enables a small majority of our population to be hugely successful in the space of health and fitness, whilst most fail horribly.
As we are getting closer to Winter and our "normal" cold and flu season about to heat up, today I got the call from my GP that it was time for my flu shot. Whether you've had a flu shot before or completely against immunisation, I recommend you listen to my thoughts and you can make your own assessment. Suffering from some bouts of extreme tiredness, I reverse engineer the cause.
