vasilli
After training with me for his first week and almost completing his circuit, he lay crumpled on the ground. I told him to get up and be a man. His reply was said back to me whilst looking up at me from the floor in a winging voice of "I don't want to be a man"


andrew
After being told to run 14K's whilst he was down in Canberra at the weekend as part of his half marathon training programme, he came back with "I ran 12K". When asked why he couldn't have run 14K's and why he stopped at the 12K point he said " I just ran out of track" Proving there is an end of the world and it's in Canberra!


jourdan
When working on his CORE muscles and being put into various different bracing and holding positions off the ground, he asked me "When can I just perform my favourite collapse brace"


jason
Before Jason raced his first half ironman he came to me with a thousand questions that were worrying him. My favourite questions was "How fast do I need to ride my bike when I am trying to catch a water bottle from an aid station?" Bamboozled I simple said "Slow enough so you catch it?"


don
One of my first ever clients in Sydney. When asking him on his past exercise he proceeded to tell me that he never sweats. "I am a non sweater" he told me. After he found out what a real workout contained he change his thoughts on being a "non sweater"


mel
Before her 10K run for her half marathon training programme she asked me "How long will it take me to run that 10K's Say if I stay at that speed of 10kph on the treadmill?" Enough said.
