Q) How often do you visit StudioGlo each week?

A) Eight 1 hour sessions per week, consisting of two 1 hour personal training sessions per week with Tom and six 1 hour group exercise classes.

Q) What is your favourite Studio Glo exercise / activity?

A) My favourite activity is clockwatching, waiting for each session to finish.

Q) What is your least favourite Studio Glo exercise / activity?

A) My least favourite exercise is burpies, which was designed by some rotten maschochist, or maybe Jarrod.

Q) What were your Health and Fitness goals when starting with Studio Glo and how have you gone progressing toward them?

A) I did not have any goals, I just started to keep my wife Marie company, however due to persistence by both Marie and Liz, our personal trainer at the time, goals started to present themselves. We wanted to climb Mount Kilamanjaro, and Liz structured our training to accomplish this goal, and as a result I lost 20 kg, and I managed the trip easily. As Marie and I travel to different parts of the world each year and trek, we keep training to be able to do this.

Q) After a big Studio Glo work out what would be your ideal meal?

A) One of my wife’s casseroles dishes that she is famous for (at least in our house) always tasty and nutritious and they can be frozen. This is so that she only has to cook once a week.

Q) If you could swap bodies for a day with anyone who’s would you choose?

A) Any one of the big losers contestants before they start the program, because that way it would only be a day before I swapped back to my own body.

Q) If you could do a group exercise class with any 5 people (alive or dead) who would you choose?

A) Actually, the people that are part of the groups that I train with are the ones that I would choose. Each of them is motivated to do their best, try as hard as they can, and do so with good humour and encouragement for the others, and you can’t do better than that in my opinion.

Q) What is the one Studio Glo exercise / activity you are determined to master?

A) Fast Feet. I’m completely incompetent at this relatively easy exercise, and because of my incompetence, the group has had to endure countless stair runs, Clive Peters runs, hundreds of pushups, situps and other ridiculous penalties that Jarrod loves to impose on unfortunates.

Q) Do you have any tips for new Studio Glo members?

A) Listen to your trainer – You are paying him/her for their advice. Each trainer takes a personal interest in your development and is as thrilled with good results as you are. Always tell your trainer if you have an injury, or minor problem, as they will structure your training accordingly, which is exactly what Tom has done for us. Get to know group members, it helps you with goal setting, and the encouragement you receive terrific. A sense of humour helps, as some very funny things happen, usually during group exercise classes!
