Dan describes himself as the opposite of a gym person growing up. And a 'Skinny Fat' guy who would be the last to get picked for sports teams at school.

Fast forward to today, and Dan can now see himself as an athlete on the Powerlifting platform where he can Squat & Deadlift 3 x his body weight.

Although, it was a slow start, and he could barely bench-press a 3kg dumbbell on his first day in the gym. He now bench-presses close to 100kg and has the confidence to go to the beach and take his top off finally.

Another of many steps out of his comfort zone that have shaped who he now is today.

Stronger Than This

After joining PPS to meet new people and 'build a booty' Chantelle was only 7-months into her training when disaster struck.

At only 28 years old; A blood clot (DVT) had formed in her leg and she was unknowingly going about ger normal business for over a week, while operating on only one lung. She collapsed in the shower when her body finally had enough. After being rushed to the hospital, she was put in an induced coma and went through open heart surgey to remove 27 blood clots from her lungs.

That's just the beginning of this amazing story. What's most inspiring is what Chantelle achieved in the first 12-months since surviving this trauma.
