Alex's Story:
I have a passion for improving health and fitness. I grew up in New Zealand participated in a lot of sports. I represented my country in Rowing, won national bodybuilding titles and broke powerlifting records. I always wanted to be healthier, faster and fitter. This thirst to improve lead me into the world of health coaching. Others came to me to learn what I was doing. I continue to read, study, experiment, listen and learn. I have suffered my own health woes - from being a horrible sleeper, embarrassingly low levels of testosterone and gut issues. Through these setbacks I have learnt even more about the body - not only how to heal from these issues, but how to avoid them altogether. This is why my clients continue to have such amazing results. The more people I work with, the more I learn, the more I do, the better I become. Just as Nicholas Taleb explains in the book Antifragile. Today I continue to learn ways to optimise my own and my clients health and fitness, but also the people around me, family, friends and society as a whole. I continue to research write and share, while I grow an organic vege garden, live by the beach, fish, farm, train and walk around barefoot in New Zealand.
