He also won Gold at the 2007 World Champs in Melbourne, a bronze at the World Champs in Rome in 2009 and a Gold at the Commonwealth Games in Melbourne in 2006. It’s fair to say that this guest knows what it takes to train and perform at the highest level as an athlete which is why I wanted to get him on today to talk about the differences between training and performing as a professional athlete vs training and performing as a recreational athlete.

As well as 3 swim schools New Wave Swim School in Frankston, Mentone Aquatic in Mentone and Korowa Aquatics in Glen Iris plus he is a keen recreational athlete keeping fit with swimming and gym every chance he gets.
