This forum has a long history of providing quality advice and support, and while some of the old members are no longer active, the forum has potential to be an active source of good advice again.
In the past I was not a prolific poster, spending much of my time helping members on the sister forum https://weight-loss.fitness.com/
however I will be spending more time over here.
so who am I ?
I am old and very experienced in the fitness world, my first gym membership was when I was 12, I am now 46 and have seen many of the ups and downs of fitness, from injuries and recovery from pregnancy up to competition prep for top level competition.
My Experience and Training
Gym Experience - too many years to count
Sport - Elite level competitor in multiple sports including representing my country
Lifting - Former National Champion (Powerlifting)
Fitness Qualifications
Senior Sports Trainer (roughly equivalent to an Athletic Trainer in the US)
Personal Trainer
Powerlifting Coach
Football Coach (Soccer for the US members)
