Leanne who ?
Founder, owner, & creator of all things BodyFix.
I have over 13 years experience treating injury & pain.
Qualifying as a Sport Therapy Practitioner first out the blocks. I knew I wanted to head straight off the deep end.
I didn’t see myself in fancy hotels or spas. Or nhs physio type clinics.
I saw myself in the depths of Bodybuilding & Strongman gyms. Fixing savage pec tears and watching biceps ping off of their attachments left right & centre. That sounded so much more fun 😊
And I LOVED it !
But it was NOT easy. I had to EARN the respect from everyone. Girls weren’t really doing what I was doing back then. And the guys in those categories saw me as an amusing young girl who they didn’t really believe could do as good as a job as a guy in my industry. Maybe a dinner date option, but fix me ? Nahhhhhh. They gave me sooooo much sh*t 😂. And I gave it back 💪
So each gym I travelled to for work, I started arriving early & lifting in each one.
Heavy and fearlessly.
I learnt in the Deep End my ENTIRE life ! And this was the DEEPEST end so far !
See, when the top guys started to see me putting myself in places, that not many go in the gym.
I EARNT the respect of many.
That led to me working with some epic epic competitors. And really really awesome humans.
Some still friends now 🙏🏻
They taught me everything about REAL lifting (minimal machine) in one of my gyms, there was a mini 🚗 in the gym you could deadlift 😂😅 it’s a bit different these days.
They invited me to train WITH them, eat with them and work with them. It was no small task to earn the respect from the old school gym rats.
And I was happy to show em’ 💪.
I knew I was always destined for ‘different’ a lot if my family are military. And I was born & lived my first years at Aldershot barracks. Home then to our Parachute Reg.
And the places I find ‘fun’ to go to in exercise, work and physical challenges.
Resembles that grit & discipline of a military mindset.
Maybe it’s in the DNA 🧬
Although, I damn sure being told what to do to that level, would have proved to determine a very short lived career for Leanne 🙋🏻♀️😅.
Luckily, I’m the Boss ❤️
