A Little Bit About Us
Russ
During my school years I was an avid soccer player but after graduation I struggled to keep my fitness up, with a full time job and a young family I just couldn’t find the time. I joined a local gym but found no motivation and struggled with understanding how to train or what machines I should use.
In 2009 I was introduced to CrossFit, I loved the fast paced, varied workouts that always left me exhausted and sweaty (in a fun kind of way), 6 months later CrossFit Bundaberg opened its doors. I joined up straight away, it wasn’t long after that I secured a trainer’s position with them and enjoyed many years coaching, training and competing.
My new focus on fitness prompted a career change from my 17 years as a mechanical engineer to a position as a personal trainer at Anytime Fitness. I loved working in this new environment, being able to motivate, support and share my knowledge with my clients gave me a fresh lease on life.
After my experiences working in a commercial gym setting and being one of the original CrossFit trainers in Bundaberg, I developed a keen understanding of the fitness business. I’ve learnt what styles of training work and what best motivates people. Sadly, I’ve also witnessed the bad side of a gym environment. This motivated me to create a space that was functional, welcoming, fun and aims to appeal to everyone.
I've continued to further my experience by completing certificates in fitness, as well as competing in various marathons, obstacle races (Tough Mudder, Beach Bash, Obstacle Hell to name a few), CrossFit (Leeding’s Challenge, Immortals, Clash on the Coast etc.) and even a few powerlifting competitions.
Together with Tam I think we make an unbeatable team, I’m determined to ensure everyone gets their best real results!

After a health scare and a lot of false starts I finally got serious about my fitness. I trialled many gyms and personal trainers but couldn’t find a good fit (sorry about the pun), then I met Russ. Due in no small part to Russ’ effective training style and knowledge I lost over 25kg in body weight, gained muscle and won an 8-week fitness challenge.
Like many others in my position I also gained a real passion for fitness, which translated into a drive to help other people achieve their goals. With Russ’ knowledge guiding me I completed my studies to become a personal trainer.
It quickly became apparent that the study aspect of learning is only part of being a trainer and that understanding people’s abilities and mindset is just as important, fortunately this comes naturally to me. I believe I stand out from the crowd because I have applied and expanded my knowledge in a real-world setting by establishing and growing ‘Booty and the Beast Fitness’ with my best friend.
Guiding, teaching and motivating my clients to reach their own goals makes me appreciate the awesome environment I get to work in every day. Simple words can’t describe how much I care about everyone who walks into our studio.
