25.01.2022 2 x FREE PT sessions with me at Snap for the first person to crunch out and message me proof of 4000 steps on the Stairmaster in one day by the end of July (any level you want, you can do all in one hit or break it up do some in morning and some later in arvo/night). Photo, time and date proof required! Have a crack instead of doing the hill!

23.01.2022 The Fitness X Business podcast - the latest episode is a good one on not wasting the last two months of this crazy year and just thinking to start a fresh again January 2021. Let me know if you listen to it and your thoughts. If you need a hand in setting some achievable goals for the rest of 2020 and rolling into 2021 please contact me.

22.01.2022 Hi, I’ve had a change of plans for Sunday and there will be no morning park session this upcoming Sunday. With the Sunday after the 16th of August I am away so again no session. See you on the 23rd of August for the next one. Brett.

21.01.2022 Just remember, not every workout is about getting your heart rate up above 80% or more. It all depends on what exercises, weights, rep ranges and tempos you are using, based around your personal goals. These last two workouts were tough for various reasons, and you will see I only hit above 80% (yellow and red areas), when I was hammering it out on the new Power Tower at the gym. Saturday- Deadlifts working up in weight down in reps. Dead hangs superset elbow planks.... 10x Hex bar deads then farmers walk them turn and do 10x Hex deads then farmers walk back then thrash out 60 steps on the Power Tower. Sunday- Chest, back, rear and side delt supersets using various rep ranges and focusing on strength and hypertrophy and also mind muscle connection and controlled reps. Getting it done on the weekend and feeling great!

21.01.2022 TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY Yep that’s me, around just over 20 years ago. I put on more weight after these photos too. It was that lightbulb moment one day that set me on my way. You can transform your body and your mind, I have done it all before. I offer Personal Training one on one, paired or group sessions at Snap Fitness Burdekin, Get Fit Home Hill, from my house, down the park or your preferred location. I accomodate for all fitness levels, so if you have been thinking about doing something for a while to improve your health, quality of life and mindset, stop thinking and just do it!

21.01.2022 Find your inner determination, focus, motivation and self belief and you will achieve your goals. Here’s a little about me and my journey! (The first photo of me was from grade 12 - I got a lot bigger than that just don’t have any photos of me I avoided them and of course no smart phones back in those days!)... I’m one year off 4-0 and married to Teena with two children, Aidan and Peyton Former tax accountant of 20 years turn PT Sporty until around grade 5 then gradually gained weight Teased at school Always focused on study and not being active during high school Gained more weight when left high school and started full time work and part time study Lighbulb moment when hopped on scales in November first year out of school do something Walked for 3 years for 4-5 days a week 30-45 minutes and cutback snacking after dinner and most junk food and lost 30kgs but had no muscle mass Bought a dumbbell weighs set for home and started there Move to Townsville when 23 and joined PCYC gym then the Zoo and went around 3 times a week after work not really knowing too much of what I was doing but researching and watching videos and learning Put on 25kgs some muscle some fat between losing all the weight and moving to Townsville Married at 27 Moved back to Ayr when 28 and bought pieces of equipment for a home gym set up to use in early mornings three times a week whilst Teena was pregnant and when Aidan was born before he awoke - this started my early morning routine Aidan born November 2010 Completed Max’s 12 week challenge in 2012 lost 13kgs and started to like training most days of the week and formed that routine - this is when my health and fitness journey and interest in weight training, exercise and nutrition really kickstarted and I learnt so much Completed a half marathon in 2013 (still hardest thing I’ve ever done as I do not like running) Peyton born January 2014 Aidan accident July 2017 and in ICU and hospital for 2 weeks Plucked up the courage finally and started PT course a few weeks after we got home from hospital Completed PT course in a year whilst working full time Went part time accounting and part time PT for six months juggling both jobs and issues with mental health during this time Big decision leave stable career to do something not stable in mid 30s with 2 kids and mortgage Completed Massive Joes 10 week challenge in 2019 and lost 8kgs and learnt a lot about pushing myself both with training and nutrition Full time PT now for one and a half years Never been happier mentally and fitter physically Please contact me if you want to get your health and fitness journey started or to learn new things in the gym!

21.01.2022 Hi! As we know exercise is very important for both physical and as well as mental health. For the month of October Snap Fitness Burdekin is running a 4 week challenge! This is good short sharp challenge to focus on your health and fitness journey and goals for the month. More details to come out soon! Keep an eye on the Snap Burdekin Facebook page. Registrations are open so don’t hesitate and sign up now!... Cheers. Brett.

20.01.2022 Snap Fitness October 2020 Mental Health Challenge What better way to welcome in the newly modernized Snap Fitness Burdekin than dive into this good little 28 day challenge commencing Thursday October the 1st. A great way to get back into things both physically and mentally if you have not been to the gym for a week or two with it being renovated, or a great way to get your health and fitness journey started. You will feel the immense benefits both physically and mentally of... exercise! Set yourself a little goal. It could be to form a new exercise and/or eating habit, get yourself into a good and positive headspace and frame of mine, lose say 2kgs, or try a different form of exercise (ie more weight training focus and less cardio). If you require that extra help and motivation for the challenge, please message me for Personal Training that I offer. I’m also looking at doing something with any challengers interested at say 5.30am Saturday mornings (Inkerman Hill and/or something in the gym)! A few challenge details: Cost $45 MyZone Belts are only $45 (save $15) One lucky person (Snap nation wide) to receive $1,500! 28 day Snap Challenge App with workouts, recipes etc Group challenges and catch ups Local prizes and end of challenge breakup To sign up go into the gym today or tomorrow, or go online at https://snapnation.com.au/charity-challenge Please message either myself or go see Yvette at the gym if you are after any more details. Sign up, set yourself a little goal, get to it! Cheers. Brett.

18.01.2022 What an amazing effort by Yvette and the team modernizing the gym over the past week! The gym is back open 24/7 right now! I have not been able to be part of the reno team due to having my feet up and taking it easy over the past week and a bit after my ‘no more Butler kids’ surgery. I can’t wait to get back into the new gym! (the new assault bikes might have to wait another week or more until they get personally road tested!!)

03.01.2022 Sunday started strong! A few more weights thrown in today’s session!

03.01.2022 I practice what I preach: - Consistency (it is easy to get out of bed when I do when I love working out) - Weight Training (but I do enjoy a good session on the stairmaster - funny thing is I find it helps clear my mind!) - Train with Intensity and Focus (but also training smarter as I get older) - Everything in moderation (yes I enjoyed my ice cream last night)... Find what works for you to achieve all of these, in an environment you are comfortable in. See more

Sorry about this for my regular Sunday sessioners. ... Will see you this Sunday morning at 7am for those of you who are coming. Brett. See more
