All Blacks - Probably The Greatest Rugby Dynasty Of All Time

Hey there and Welcome back to the Academy :) this is an area I want to utilise for you the person/s reading these blogs to have an insight into me, my amazing clients and the lifestyle I love to lead and represent as a Fitness Professional in Devonport. So let’s start this blog and get to the gritty details of Legend Status In Its Core Is Hard To Grasp.

We always refer to people like great musicians, sports stars, athletes, actors and actresses into this category of Legend Status when they achieve something like a couple OSCARS or Win the NBA Championship off their own back or goes to more Superbowls than anyone and wins 6 of them and is a part of probably the greatest sporting dynasty in the history of the NFL or how about something closer to home, take the NZL All Blacks Rugby Union team, for the past well my entire lifetime 32 years they have been a force Rugby side in the world to beat and also would be considered to be one of the greatest sporting organisations of possibly my generation and of all time, so we associate this stigma that these people, teams are LEGEND… If we put the meaning of Legend into context below
A traditional story sometimes popularly regarded as historical but not authenticated.

"The legend of King Arthur" is this real or is this just a story ? Or

An extremely famous or notorious person, especially in a particular field.

"The man was a living legend" this is the context or meaning I would rather see and view as Legend Status, this way we can know for sure that the individual or story telling of this person is real and therefore has more meaning to it than hearsay or just another story told.

So Legend Status can not just be obtained or given without absolute Merritt or Effort, very much like respect, you know or have heard that respect is never given it is earned and this is how I feel about the word or status Legend. So without any more on the how’s and why I feel about legends ha-ha I introduce you to Someone that in my opinion and from my business point of view plus the standards that I drive for myself but for my clients our first LEGEND STATUS Client Kelly Smith “T-Rex” “The Fossil” represents everything we stand for here at Turtle Shell Fitness.

Congratulations to Kelly Smith the first client to make it to the Legend Status for what it is and what means to its core within Turtle Shell Fitness.
What it stands for is
Honesty, Work ethic, Attitude, Encouragement, Warm, Welcoming, Inviting and most importantly Consistent !!

Someone who can represent what our business is designed for in such away that makes myself and for my business to strive for more than just Excellence, Kelly represents our way of life and fitness no better than anyone else, below paragraph is a short brief of Kelly and the Individual she is and what she means to me and our group training sessions.

Kelly Summer OF 2018/19 Legend Of Turtle Shell Fitness

Kelly When She First Started Summer 2017/18

Kelly is an outstanding client, friend and a part of the family and fabric of Turtle Shell Fitness, with over 12 months of training and into her 2nd year with us here as a One on One Client and Group Client she has been super consistent, makes every session count for her goals and what she wants to achieve. To date Kelly has lost close to 40kgs, she can now box jump 20” inches, she can dead lift 140 kg+ she can bench press 65kgs. When Kelly started with us she could only and would barely run a lap of the soccer oval, she was around 125kgs in body weight, she was in size 22-24 pants, she was Overweight, Tired, and had just about given up on ever being anything other than 120+ kg. Kelly is the epitome of Effort, Consistency and Commitment towards herself, she brings everyone else up from the floor, she is a joy to train, all new people to our group she approaches with her positive and inviting attitude letting them know first and foremost that the journey will be hard, it will be tiring and that no effort is left unrewarded and to always give what you can because she knows that you truly can Win Your Race At Your Pace :) Kelly’s attitude has helped with another clients effort and is slowly but surely making the positive impact on this person as they reach for their goals and Kelly is always the first client to another clients side to help them push a little harder, to dig a little deeper and mostly to have FUN !! She helps bring the very most out of people even when she has had a SHIT day, and she honestly can not be FUCKED she still makes the effort to be consistent.

Kelly we are all proud of you, myself and all of the clients we have we love and appreciate you and you are a True Definition to Legendary as it comes !! :)
