DEAN’S STORY - 28 YRS
A LITTLE ABOUT YOU?
I’m 28 years old and work for my old man at MPrint Colour Printers, just around the corner, as a Digital Operator, but you can always find me helping out in pre-press, on the machines or delivering jobs around Melbourne.
HOW DID YOU FEEL WHEN YOU DID YOUR FIRST TRAINING SESSION?
“To be honest, I didn’t realize how unfit I was and how hard it would be! My colleague Merrick had been telling me to come along to Boss for months, to give it a go, but the gym environment just wasn’t me. It wasn’t until my brother Scott and other work mate Gerald started and told me just how rewarding it was, that I thought I would come in and try it out. Even though that first session was SO hard and absolutely killed me, the feeling I got afterwards was amazing and made me want to come back again and again. ”
HOW DO YOU FEEL NOW WHEN YOU COME IN AND TRAIN?
“Every time I come in and train, I have so much more energy and have noticed how much stronger and fitter I have become. Even in such a short amount of time, I am amazed at the changes, not only physically, but mentally as well.”
WHAT MOTIVATES YOU TO KEEP TURNING UP AND TRAINING?
“While the physical changes have definitely given me motivation to continue training, it’s the environment at Boss and the great trainers that keep me coming back for more.”
WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE SOMEONE WHO IS LOOKING TO START?
“While it may seem daunting, starting at a new gym, the guys at Boss make you feel like part of the family from day one. The hardest part for me was getting to that first training session, but once you’re there you realize that everyone is here for the same reason and are there to support you and help you smash your goals!”
