PERSONAL TRAINER
RORY RHODES
Rory has high experience in injury rehabilitation, weight loss, special needs, athletic and strength training.
Living an active lifestyle has lead Rory to be very fortunate throughout his career although one of his most proudest moments would be becoming a dad. He has played baseball professionally for the Minnesota Twins (USA), Brisbane Bandits (AUS) and was even an inaugral season finalist of Australian Ninja Warrior in 2017.
“Throughout my career, I had much success but even more failure. Although we thoroughly enjoy success, it is through our failures that we learn the most….I have learnt a lot!!! As a trainer, I will strive to create a success out of a failure. I seek the best for my clients and only expect that my clients give me their best in return.
Playing sport at a professional level naturally lead me to the health and fitness industry. After building several successful businesses that have helped countless individuals both physically and mentally, life has lead me to The Zoo Health and Fitness Centre. It is here that I have chosen to future aid clients to improve their physical and mental health through an active lifestyle. Whether it be losing a few extra kilos, gaining strength, improving mental health, becoming the next Australian Ninja Warrior or simply being the best version of you. I am ready to help so please give me a call.”
