I am Ex British Military and i'm moving back to Brisbane later in the year to persue a career in fitness, i really just want to start of as a personal trainer which is something i have been doing in the UK for a bit and then someday have my own gym. I love helping people and working with the to reach their goals, its such an amazing feeling to see some one reach a goal they set, the look in their eyes is priceless!
