Hi, My name is Brodie and I am one of the Personal Trainers here at AchievePT. My life has been heavily involved in sport and fitness and I would like to share a little more about that.
I played many sports as a kid growing up in Bundaberg, such as Aussie Rules Footy, Rugby League, Touch Footy, BMX, Athletics, Squash, Gym, Basketball, and all water sports. I rode bikes from about the age of 4, and continued this until I was about 15. In 1998 I was lucky enough to participate in Melbourne at the World Championships where I placed 5th in the final for my age group, which I was pretty happy with.
Growing up, I always had an interest in Aussie Rules coming from a Victorian background, but it wasn’t until I was about 13 that I seriously got stuck into it. In 2005 I was selected in the U/16 QLD AFL scorpions’ team. We were lucky enough to take out the Division 2 title at the 2005 Aussie Championships. After this, I kept playing local footy in Bundy where my team, the mighty Eagles managed to take out the 2006 Grand Final which I feel is my most memorable sporting moment. Halfway through 2007 I managed to tear my right hamstring which sat me on the sidelines up until the end of the 2008 season. I’m now down in Brisbane where hopefully next year I might be able to get a kick for Morningside.
I enjoy surfing, water skiing, wakeboarding, and snorkelling, however my real passion is in the health and fitness industry.
Over the years I’ve enjoyed going to the gym, learning about training and learning about nutrition. And now I get to do it as a job. From all the knowledge I have acquired over the years, hopefully I can help my clients to achieve their health and fitness goals so they too can feel as great about the industry as us here at AchievePT do. |
