RFOS Q&A
 
How long have you been training?  
I have been involved in sports since I could remember and have been in multiple representative teams in a myriad of sports, including, but not limited to: athletics, basketball, cricket, cross-country running, cycling, mountain-biking, soccer, softball, and volleyball. In 2000 I started cycling, and from then on it became my life for the next five years. During my first year of cycling competition I won all but one of the National New Zealand Track and Road Cycling titles available for my age/competition class.
 
I started resistance training in May 2002, in preparation for the Junior World Track Cycling Championships; thereafter it was to improve my sprint cycling performance. When I left college, moved. and entered the work world, I kept on training and going to the gym, despite taking time out from cycling competition. The gym I used was full of the top New Zealand Federation of Bodybuilding (NZFBB) male bodybuilders. I had the sudden impulse 12 weeks out from a regional NZFBB competition (August 2004) to enter the Figure division for fun and for the experience. Figure was totally different from any other sport I had ever competed in. (Cycling, for me, had long since ceased to be fun; when you get to the elite level in any sport, fun no longer enters the equation.) The guys at the gym were great, helping me out with diet and training. For the first time in my life I saw my body do things that I had been told before were impossible for me. (Keep in mind that resistance training for cyclists is performance orientated, not focused on aesthetics.) That Figure competition (November 2004) I imagined was my first and last. After retiring from cycling (December 2007) — and because of who I am and what my life had been like for the last seven years — I felt I had to be doing SOMEthing in the world of sport. In January 2008 I began focusing my resistance training on muscle accretion, with the intention of one day competing more seriously in Figure. My plan is to compete in 2010, aiming to win my WNBF Figure Pro card.
 
 
What would you like to see done to help improve or promote the sport?
Women need to be better educated on the importance of using resistance training to achieve their body and fitness goals. Training with weights should neither intimidate nor scare them. I would like to see the many wrong mindsets among and about women and weight training be replaced by correct information and healthy attitudes.  
 

 
What would you like to share about your last contest?
The gym that I used when I left home was full of top NZFBB male bodybuilders. The guys often told me that I had the body to compete. As I mentioned, just 12 weeks out from the competition I decided enter the Figure division for fun and the experience. And also because Figure was something totally different from any sport I had ever done, and I was on a break from cycling competition. I did not have any expectations. I just wanted to see what I could do with the time that I had. Although my third placing in the 2007 NZFBB Taranaki qualified me to compete at the Nationals, I did not — since I had entered the competition solely for fun (it was supposed to be a first and last event) and began training seriously again for cycling afterwards.
 
 
Do you get negative comments from people with regard to your muscles?    
Yes and no. My family and some friends are highly disapproving of my physique, because they do not like muscle on a woman. In the gym men often ask if I compete because of the way I train and the definition displayed, and women ask me if I model and how can they get a figure like mine. Regardless of others’ opinions about my physique, I do this for ME and no one else. I actually prefer to be as I am. Muscle looks so much better than fat skinny!  
 

  
Have you ever surprised yourself with you own strength? Like you forgot you were THAT strong???    
Maybe if I am doing upper body work, but not usually. It's others I mostly suprise, when they see some of the weights that this little girl lifts.  
 
 
How have you used your physical strength outside the gym, when it has come in handy?    
I first started training in the gym for strength for cycling, so it’s a given that I used it in the sporting arena.  
 
 
Any message for fans?
Thank you to all of you who have followed my progress. Thank as well to all who have provided sources of inspiration. Everything that I do is a testament to God’s glory, as He turns my weaknesses into strengths and allows me to show His grace.
 
My mission and career objective is to be an inspiration to, and instill in males and females alike, an energy and passion for sport, health and fitness; to help others achieve their sporting, health and/or fitness orientated goals. providing quality and effective support and motivation for them  in the pursuit of their goals, whilst educating them on how to make positive lifestyle choices and changes to improve their quality of life and to keep getting the desired results.
 
I want to be a role model for women to look up to re fitness. Women need to be better educated on the importance of using resistance training to achieve their body and fitness goals. Training with weights should neither intimidate nor scare them. I would like to see the many wrong mindsets among and about women and weight training be replaced by correct information and healthy attitudes. I also want to drive home the fact that one does NOT have to starve or live on an endless diet in order to get and stay lean, and lead by example that diet is a LIFESTYLE nutrition plan that can be maintained and adjusted as required.

I recently started my own company — Rosie’s MuscleRevolution — created to fill a void in online personal training. The goal is to provide an opportunity for those who prefer nondirect contact with a trainer to have individualized exercise programmes and nutrition plans designed to achieve their goals, using a more economical, convenient and efficient mode of personal training. Rosie's MuscleRevolution delivers the knowledge and tools needed to help achieve health and fitness goals, using methods scientifically proven to get results. Every exercise programme and nutrition plan is designed to meet each client's individual needs.

I have created and implemented individually customized exercise programmes for a variety of goals: improving health, increasing fitness, sports-specific coaching, and injury rehabilitation among others.
 
I am qualified and experienced in all the following areas:

Athletic Training – Injuries and rehabilitation, strapping, massage.  
 
Musculoskeletal Exercise Rehabilitation – Injury assessment and rehabilitation programme prescription (Phases I to IV).
