In this FITREPMADE episode we chat with our Merrylands Personal Trainer Olivia.
How did Olivia end up working with with us?
Olivia did a course at the Australian Institute of Fitness and she went to a fitness exhibition where she met Chez at the Fitness Republic booth and signed up for work experience with him. At first she was hesitant to start because she was nervous and paranoid. However, as soon as she came in she felt like family straight away because they took her in with their arms open. She exclaims the Merrylands gym feels like: “It’s not like work, it’s more like home.”
What do you love about Fitness Republic?
“I love everything about it. I want to give people a chance and let them know they are not alone.”
Before becoming a PT Olivia was scared of the gym and she was intimidated by weights. Now she wants to help girls understand that they can use weights and train, it’s not just for men. Girl’s are strong and should be proud of it.
A lot of our female clients that come in have been ill informed before. They are told not to eat and stay away from weights. We want to teach girls it’s important to eat and weights are valuable.
It’s so incredible to have such motivated and dedicated personal trainers like Olivia working with us at Fitness Republic changing the lives of our members!
