Rachel Dorans

Rachel came to Body Conquest, needing more than just a trainer to help her lose weight, but a support network to help embrace her program-Metabolic Precision with a focus on the future and not the past. To her delight a 23.1kilogram fat loss was the result with a huge positive impact on her fitness level, dramatic upper body, core and lower limb strength gains. Rachael learned much about nutrition and how to eat the right foods at the right time. She learned confidence in herself through boxing and kickboxing skills. Perhaps best of all Rach had become who she wants to be, her self-esteem has improved, she has become even more enthusiastic about training, and joined in Group Redline. Watching the personality transformation as trainers was truly rewarding as was her comment in her last assessment that "this is one of the most happiest days of my life".
Luke Von Wald

Luke is the owner of a Personal Training studio in Hoppers Crossing and came to Body Conquest for help refining his training for a first time experience on stage. The Body Conquest Team was only too willing to help this fabulous guy who showed so much competitive potential. The team worked incredibly hard on Luke’s posing and carbohydrate cycling to help get him the look he was seeking and represent his physique the way he wanted. Through stringent adherence to the Pre-Contest Preparation program Luke came on in leaps and bounds and came third in the Novice division of his class. As a first timer Luke was thrilled with his result but is determined to come back better, bigger and harder next year!
Tom Brown

Tom trained under Body Conquest Director Ingrid Barclay for 17 months to prepare for his first show. Tom's focus was on the NABBA/WFF Class 1 Victorian State Title. Tom had his routine choreographed by the professional and exciting Jo Rogers enabling Tom to show his physique off to the best of his abilities. Tom was able to win the title and present in the Overall section as well. A week later Tom went to the Nationals to compete in the Mr Australia. Although up against a highly experienced field Tom came a credible 3rd against the winner and absolutely amazingly conditioned David Nazaroff. It is quite a feat to simply stand next to David on stage! Tom dropped around 20 kilo's of body fat with the help of the Body Conquest team and a motivating program, to get into the best condition of his life thus far.
Renata Stojanovski

When Renata first came to Body Conquest she was already a committed gym junkie, weighing 68kg’s and not understanding why she wasn’t as lean and defined as she wanted to be. She was sceptical at first when her BC trainer told her that the 10 Week Fat Loss Program would drop her level of cardio activity dramatically and increase her resistance training. At the end of her 10 Weeks Renata was a lean 17% and thrilled with her weight. In January 2009 Renata committed to the September NABBA/WFF Miss Victoria and started working towards goals to ensure a winning form. With the guidance of the BC team she went on to win the Novice Figure Class 1 and later in the day took out the coveted Ms Figure Overall title earning her place at the Australian Titles. Renata again won her class, beating out experienced competition in an awesome first season effort to earn the title of Ms Australia.
Andrea Bath

Andrea came to know Body Conquest through a resistance training course and came to us for an initial consultation about her health and fitness. During this consultation it was suggested to Andrea that she should do a figure contest as she had a good basis to work on. With active encouragement from the Body Conquest team, Andrea set her sights on the WFF Class 1 Open division. Andrea trained for 6 months under direction of her Body Conquest trainer with the help of Jo Rogers and Irene Nikole for her posing. Amazingly, despite being a myotherapist, mother of two young children and helping her husband run his business, Andrea got up on stage in the shape of her life, winning her division. This was a fantastic achievement for her first time out, and no doubt the start of a very special competitive journey.
Maria Beaton

Maria is one of the most committed and dedicated clients undertaken by Body Conquest. Maria, is an incredibly determined lady, whose motivation for competing was because it's on her “bucket list”. For four long years, Maria travelled from Cobden, three times a week to train with the Body Conquest team showing a remarkable dedication to achieving her goals. Maria had three attempts at getting up on stage. The first had to be abandoned when she lost her job about 6 weeks out, the second she was hit by a motor bike in Thailand 5 months before the show. Amazingly, Maria suffered not one, but 2 frozen shoulders that the BC team worked around to get her on stage. She even disguised her front double bicep pose whilst performing due to the excruciating pain. To Maria’s credit she placed runner up in the NABBA/WFF Masters Division 2009 and realised her dream. Congratulations to a really admirable job!
Mary Schroader

Mary sought out Body Conquest because she knew that she wanted to get on stage and not just compete but to win. Already in absolutely top shape, she wanted Body Conquest to aide her in creating a program that would achieve results. As a qualified personal trainer and fitness professional, Mary was looking for that extra guidance to compete at her best in competition, with both physical and psychological advantages. Mary followed her program training hard, with a focus on cardio development. She placed second in her first ever competition the NABBA/WFF Novice Class 2, and lost in a very close decision. Since her first comp Mary has continued to work extremely hard showing an ethos and philosophy that has earned her a place in the Body Conquest staff where she continues to train and can now inspire Body Conquest clients.
Nathaniel McEwan

Nathaniel came to Body Conquest specifically to help him prepare for the NABBA/WFF 2009 State Titles. The Body Conquest team created a Pre Contest Preparation program designed to place Nathaniel on the podium in his first attempt at competition. After months of hard work his training with Body Conquest paid off and to his credit he placed 4th in the Men's Class 2. Nathaniel made such an impression on his first outing that Vance Ang from Ironman magazine did a small profile as a future star in the making. Nathaniel is currently preparing for further assaults and maintains his awesome physique.
Martin Lumsden

Marty wished to push himself further and set his eyes on a podium place competing and came to Body Conquest with this goal. Body Conquest was able provide Martin with the right program and guidance for getting his body in shape and he also obtained helpful competition hints and psychological strategies to help him in his competitive quest. Marty competed in the NABBA/WFF Victoria Titles in 2009 and was probably the hardest male competitor on the day, in awesome condition. He placed second in the Junior division and is now currently training to put on more size so he can work through to bigger competitions with greater success. Congratulations Marty.
