Today’s guest starting out as one of Australia’s first Personal Trainers in the 80’s & progressed to become the owner of the biggest PT studio in the Southern Hemisphere and a performance coach for professional sports teams. 

He’s now an exercise scientist, corporate speaker, radio show host, author of multiple books, amazing podcast host and now, a fellow PhD student. 

 He’s also one of the few people that I can call a mentor.
