3. When it's been a full-on week, what is your favourite way to unwind?
I love a soak in a hot Epsom salt bath followed by healthy take-aways, a night on the couch, a sweet treat of some description and a rejuvenating deep tissue massage.
4. What is the one thing you could not live without each day?
My husband and two girls.
5. Describe a typical Monday morning.
Alarm goes at 4am. Four one-hour PT sessions from 5am, take Fit Mums sessions from 9.30am. Home at 11am. Three hours of working on the business, my own workout until school pick-up time at 2.20pm.
6. Describe your role and what you love about it?
I used to call myself a personal trainer but that no longer encapsulates all of what I do. A friend suggested I call myself a fitness specialist. I specialise in all things fitness - on a mental and physical level.
7. Do you have any party tricks?
I make an awesome chimpanzee face. Other than that if there's a dare at a party I'll give it my best shot.
8. Do you have a nickname and, if so, what's the story behind it?
Rin - a derivative of my name. Husband and a close friend or two call me "Chub" or "Chubby" - because I've always been the complete opposite.
9. Tell us something that most people don't know about you.
I love lollies. Especially gummy lollies like Natural Confectionery. If there's a bag in the fridge they're gone within an hour. Thankfully, this has become a rare occurrence.
10. As a child, who or what did you want to be when you grew up? And why?
I wanted to be an accountant - because I always loved maths and accountants were rich. Truth be known, when I was finally at tertiary age, I attended one day of the Bachelor of Business course at AUT in Auckland and knew then that was not what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. As it turns out I now coach people about their greatest wealth - their health.
