"“Feed me I’m f@*kin' starving!”" Overview (A Little About Me)I have lived on the Gold Coast for the majority of my life and am now practising as a criminal lawyer in Southport with Ryan & Bosscher Lawyers.
My background in sport is as a rugby union player representing Qld up to u/21 level before venturing to Ireland and the UK playing professional rugby until my mid twenties. After nursing a number of injuries and taking on full time study I retired from rugby union. I always enjoyed the strength and gym training aspect of rugby and have been doing it as a hobby ever since.
I have a beautiful little boy named Cooper and a nephew who is like my second son named Gabe. Between the two of them they keep my weekends occupied and thankfully keep me out of trouble.
InterestsLove watching all sports, movies and dvd’s. I love eating and sleeping on weekends and training during the week. I like to read books (anything non-work related). Spending time with my beautiful little boy Cooper is the best part of living for me. Favourites (Food, Bodyparts, People)Favourite Food would have to be butter, peanut butter and honey spread thickly on fresh white bread. Cherry Ripes and Mint slice biscuits are also a weakness of mine. However, for a snack at anytime of the day and night you can’t beat Weet Bix with fresh cold milk and honey dripping all over the top (my personal best is 48 weet bix with 2.5 litres of milk and full squeeze bottle of honey in one sitting 3 days after competition). Motivations (What Motivates Me)The need for self improvement whether it be physically, mentally or in projects I have undertaken is a big motivating factor for me. Trying to keep up with my training partner motivates me in the gym (not a good look to pull out of squats before a girl does!).
My son motivates me .
Finally the buzz of standing on stage in good condition motivates me to wear fake tan, little undies and starve myself for 3 months leading up to competitions!
Training History (Years, Location, Trainer)I have trained on and off in gyms for about 15 yrs. Mainly for rugby requirements. Bodybuilding for about 2.5 years.
I like to mix up where I train and who I train with to make things interesting. Currently I train at Goodlife in Brisbane and on the Gold Coast, I also train at Fitness First at Southport and have recently checked out Industry Gym at Helensvale which is awesome and am thinking about joining there as well.
I train some sessions on my own or with different guys depending on which gym I am in . I find the most challenging sessions I have though are with world class Figure competitor Stefanie Williams.
My diet and contest prep is done by Jon Davie. The man is unbelievable with his knowledge and eye for detail. He and his wife Joeli open up there house at any time of the day or night around comp time making sure everyone of there competitors are set to go. Jon keeps tabs on body fat percentage in addition to weekly sessions of viewing the changes in body shape. You never know what you will be eating from week to week although you can be confident it ain't going to taste good!
Other big influences are my good mate and cousin Paul Fogg who is a personal trainer in Darwin and my good mate Chris Hosking. The boys have unbelievable knowledge in bodybuilding prep. Jason Clark is another big influence on me in all aspects of bodybuilding. Stefanie Williams has been a big inspiration not only in her great success as a figure competitor but also in encouragement in training, dieting and focusing on the light at the end of the dieting tunnel.

Listen to your body and rest if you need to but if you don’t need to rest then train hard and don’t make excuses. Remember gyms are open at 5.00am and close at 9.00pm. You can find 40mins somewhere in that time frame….
