Brad did some major damage to his knee in January 2022 Mountain Biking. This is documenting of his rehab journey!

“Being raised by a very health-conscious mother, there were a lot of bad eating habits that I escaped as a kid. I never drank soda or ate white bread, and didn’t visit fast food restaurants often enough to develop an ‘addiction’.

Where do I start? It has been a unbelievable last 41 days. I have gone from struggling around 26 January 2008 (when work & personal issues caused me to doubt if I could do it) to today where I am only 5 weeks away from concluding the 12 weeks (first of 3). I am seeing the results of my planning, hard work, commitment, sweat, hard work etc.

Pain used to be a daily occurrence for me I wish to forget. I’d like to share with you my journey. A lot has changed for me since originally starting work within the fitness industry as a ‘Personal Trainer’.

Brad’s knowledge, dedication and support are truly inspirational. Since training with him, I have incorporated regular weight training into my exercise regime, made time for stretching (love that foam roller), introduced more FAT (heaven forbid) into my diet and reduced my alcohol consumption. The pain I was experiencing in my neck and knees is nearly gone and my posture has improved significantly. I recently completed my first Olympic length triathlon and managed to get through an entire rowing season injury free.

Brad has been a great inspiration to me. I did not start seeing him to lose weight / bodyfat, it was to gain fitness & improve my quality of life. I suffered from severe back pain, knee pain & neck pain. I can now run over 6km in 30 minutes & have increased my strength to do some amazing acrobatic moves!

Do you have a million and one excuses each week as to why you DON’T move your body with purpose? Do you need some inspiration? Between January and September of 2002, I had the pleasure of training 3 school terms of a group of 4-9 different people each week that attended the Northwest Disability School in Baulkham Hills, Sydney, Australia.

Need some motivation to move your body after pregnancy? Try 5 kids! Julie is an inspiration. Tim and Julie used my services in Japan, and with their entire family on the yearly holiday in Michigan. Hard to believe Julie is still so ripped, being an amazing mother of 5 children!

How did a primal mama like me get a leaky gut? Well, I haven’t always been primal. The first 30 years of my life, my body saw plenty of processed food, medications, yeast, and inflammation. So even though the last 7 years I have lived quite primally, my body is now telling me that it has some healing to do if I want to stay healthy for years to come.

Yoga as a form of physical exercise has been part of Louise’s life for over a decade. However, a recurring struggle with glandular fever left her physically exhausted and emotionally drained. For such an active, busy individual this was a huge blow.
