What do you do in your downtime?

Love ordering in dumplings and watching a series on Netflix.

 

What’s one thing most people don’t know about you?

I’m a massive Harry Potter fan and I have seen all the films and can quote lines from every movie.

 

What advice would you give to anyone starting their own fitness journey?

Aim to create a routine and a structure to your week with your training and nutrition. Where you introduce one habit at a time and build from there. Learn to enjoy the process and not focus on the end goal. Lastly be kind to yourself. Not every week will be perfect, do the best you can, and consistency is the key to change!

 

Thanks Joel for being a dedicated personal trainer and for your commitment to the PARC Team over the past 8 years!

A feel good Friday post for you... Nic kicks two goals, in one! 🏉

Nicole, one of our long term PARC Team members, achieved a life-long dream last weekend. 

Nic has always wanted to play football, and last week, she not only achieved that dream, but kicked her first goal at her very first game! What made it even more special was who she shared it with. Her daughter Bella was her teammate on the field (you might recognise Bella from the PARC Cafe!), her son Billy was the proud goal umpire🌟

Nic is an amazing part of Team PARC, and an example that shows it doesn’t matter how old you are to start something new. If you have a dream or goal that you want to achieve, go for it, we are here to support you! Congrats Nic! 🩵
