CLIENT SPOTLIGHT
Ros Whittaker 

Ros you have been a client of mine from the very start and are now also a very close friend. In the 3 years I have been training you I have noticed your confidence to training improve tremendously. Especially since starting Body Strong. To be honest when you told me you were trying it I was happy and thought fantastic but I also thought you would hate it, but I am so happy I was wrong because you confidence and your 'I can't' attitude has gone and now YOU CAN! 

Keep reading to see what keeps Ros motivated and why she loves Body Strong.

How long have you been training with Body Confidence Australia?
I’ve been training with Body Confidence since 2017
 
What do you enjoy most about Body Confidence Australia?
I love how no two classes are the same, the attentiveness of the trainers and most importantly the members of the gym,I have made some beautiful friends since joining body confidence. I’ve heard the gym being referred to as a family, we see each other at our worse and our best. We support each other not just with our training but outside of the gym.
 
You have a busy family life with 3 children at home and work commitments. How do you stay motivated to attend classes?
I don’t know if I’m that motivated ! Gym has become part of my daily routine there are days when I really don’t feel like going but I know when I get home I feel fantastic and motivated for the day. I'm trying to teach my kids the importance of exercise and the overall benefits it will have for them throughout life.
 
You have recently started taking part in the Body Strong sessions, how are you finding them?
Body Strong was a class I thought I would try then not continue but it’s the completely opposite, I try to go to every session.
 
What do you like most about the Body Strong sessions?
Brendan is a fantastic trainer and dedicates time to each member focusing on improving technique whilst providing encouragement. I enjoy the challenge of each class. Initially I  struggled with the heavier weights and wondered what the heck was I doing! Over time I've been able to increase the weights I’m using and I am actually seeing results!
 
What is your favorite exercise?
 Favorite exercise I don’t know if I have one !
 Some days I Love kettle bells then others I’m could take or leave them. I do enjoy Pilates.
 
What is your least favorite exercise?
No surprise my least favorite exercise is Burpees.
 
Did you have a goal that you were aiming for this year or do you have any to aim for in 2021?
I don’t set specific fitness goals (maybe I should ) I do try to challenge myself most days. My goal for 2021 would be to restart running and as I’ve started swimming again with a fellow gym member our goal will be to swim In the 50 meter pool! Without drowning!
 
I am so proud of you Ros and I am excited to see what you can achieve next year, I may even have to come and race you in the pool or sign you up to do the swimming part of a triathlon with me.....?!
Thank you for answering these! 😊
