A Bit About Me
Hi, instead of boring you with a bio, i will skip a few decades and explain why I am registered with FITREC.
At 70 years of age I can confidently say that age is just a number - strength is a choice and the most powerful investment in healthy ageing is strength training.
For women navigating perimenopause and menopause, when hormonal shifts accelerate muscle loss, bone loss, and metabolic changes, resistance training isn’t optional. It’s essential.
For those that say, 'I am not the gym type', think again. Also think of the new social connections you'll make and a renewed sense of well being where your physical, mental, emotional, and social health come into balance.
Stay healthy and stay strong and by being registered with FITREC I can put that message out there.

I have had the pleasure of Gail's services twice - with a third appointment booked for this weekend.
On both occasions, Gail has been very professional and has provided me with exercise plans which I can actually succeed with and are even able to complete at home.
The encouragement and ease of speaking to Gail, with her layman explanations, has so far assisted me in my weight loss journey, which at 6 months has resulted in a loss of 17kgs.

She was friendly,down to earth a day very inspiring.
She had great knowledge in offering me advice and encouragement with plenty of options with the vast array of injuries I hold.

I was very impressed with her experience, and would highly recommend her.

Thankyou so much for our introduction to the gym. I found your advice/demonstration of each machine really valuable, and your warm and welcoming presence created a really nice environment!
I look forward to making use of the Stairmaster, I was thinking that it would be a great tool for my Kokoda training. Thank you very much for attaching the Kokoda Training Program - it looks great!

I have known and had the pleasure of dealing with Gail for some time now and I find that she is highly professional, dedicated and extremely knowledgeable about health and fitness. she has helped me out no end.

Gail was great to chat to. She helped me pull together bits of information I had gathered to help make it all makes sense. I am at a stage in my exercise journey that talking to someone who understands the struggles and confusion is very reassuring.

I joined the gym last week and had a personalised program designed for me by Nicholas. During my second visit, I found I was having some difficulty using a few of the machines, despite having previously been shown how to use them.
I introduced myself to Gail and asked if she could assist me. She was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and supportive. Gail took the time to demonstrate the correct techniques, ensuring I was using the equipment safely and effectively. She also recommended alternative exercises that were better suited to me when I felt uncomfortable with certain machines.
Her guidance greatly improved my confidence and overall experience. I would highly recommend Gail.

Thank you for forwarding my exercise program. Each exercise is explained so that my brain visualises it being demonstrated.
I enjoyed our session, and it set me up to have a fabulous day with Caroline.
The Universe must be telling me something, so yes thank you, I would be happy for you to arrange your client (exercise buddy) and myself to meet. I am happy for you to give her my mobile number.
Thank you for your support and for developing my exercise program, it’s exactly what I hoped it would be.

Thanks for your assistance this morning. You were friendly, professional and very informative. I'm looking forward to starting the gym program you've set out for me. Hopefully we'll see an improvement in me over the next 6 weeks.
