5 /5 Monique Cotton: I have always been a stickler for finding the best of the best when it comes to fitness. At 18 months postpartum to my first child, I was looking to make a drastic lifestyle change after retaining weight gained during my pregnancy and feeling self-conscious.
I set myself a goal of getting on a competition stage, however long it took me. This is when I met Dave, the owner and the master trainer at Evolve Training Systems.
The initial experience with Dave was nothing short of the best. We sat down, had an hour long conversation about my lifestyle habits, body type, metabolism concerns and other health issues. We then went through measurements and scans, and through a consultative approach - came up with a training plan and off I went. This was pre-Christmas 2024.
6 months in, I have had to sadly part ways with Dave after relocating interstate for work.
But following his training and nutrition program, Im 8kgs down, getting stronger and slowly building healthy habits starting with resetting my metabolism and well on track to hopefully compete in my first IFBB competition by the end of this year.
Dave and his team, and the community they have created through Evolve will remain with me wherever I go. A journey to fitness is a long-term one, and if youre looking for a place with a holistic approach on your health, goals and creating life-long changes and build great habits - I highly recommend you consider joining Evolve!
Thank you Dave and the team!
