Fitnance trainee Hayley Sheahan competes internationally for Soccer!


Hayley is one of our youngest trainees here at Fitnance and yet she is already making an international name for herself in soccer! Hayley recently returned from New Zealand where she participated in the under 16 National Womens Team, at North Harbour Stadium. She played in two games, one which was a draw and the other an unfortunate loss. Hayley has reported that the competition was tough, but being a Fitnance trainee we know she would have given it her best and we are proud to have such a young achieved trainer as part of our team! Well done Hayley!




Latest Fitnance Rookie

Hi everyone! My name is Jacinta King and I am the latest rookie to start at Fitnance! I am freshly 21 and currently studying Nutrition/Dietetics and Human Movement Studies at QUT. I am here at Fitnance completing some healthy population prac so please don't be shy to introduce yourself and ask me to train you to test out my skills - I definiety need the practice! My first inspiration for health and fitness came from when I started martial arts in early highschool. Martial arts taught me dedication, focus, discipline, and what it really feels like to be pushed to your limits!! These skills and inspiration turned into a passion and has lead me to where I am today. Since starting university my schedule has not allowed me to continue my martial arts, so in the mean time I have become a gym junkie with my latest achievement being able to squat 60kg! My future career goals are to become a senior dietitian specialising in renal or liver disease, as well as running exercise and nutrition lifestyle intervention programs for people living with chronic disease. Can't wait to meet you all out in the training studio!!

Brisbane Fitness Expo





What will you be doing this tuesday the 11th of October at lunch time? Seeing Fitnance's very own Sue Metcalf TRUCK PULL at Queen Street Mall as part of the Brisbane Fitness Expo offical launch! She may weigh just 67 kilograms, but Sue Metcalf can lift almost three times her own weight! Sue finished fifth last year in a national strength title in the United States and was able to put 200 kilograms on her back and run with it - so you know she means business!

This weekend also follows with more Fitnance action with Sue and Eben Le Roux performing a medley of strong man events at the expo, so come along and support your fellow members! Fitnance will also have a stand at the expo, and support from members would be greatly appreciated - hope to see you there!

Well done Peter Nowill for placing 3rd in the Melbourne Marathon on Sunday, finishing with the impressive time of 2:19:23!!

"I'll certainly re-evaluate my main event now, but London and the steeplechase remains my short-term goal."
