BACKGROUND OF BROOKE
At the young age of 16, in 2010/2011, I was my heaviest at 120kgs. This weight on my body frame did nothing for my self-esteem, mental health or confidence, especially when bullying was a daily occurrence.
Towards the end of 2011, I joined my first gym, in an attempt to lose weight and try to change my daily habits. I had assistance from a number of Personal Trainers that helped influence me to learn different exercises, better my lifestyle and eating habits.
I decided to study to become a Personal Trainer as there was a part of me and my journey I wanted to share with others, to help educate and become a part of their journeys.
Fast forward to 2019, where weight had fallen off and I'd managed to keep 50kgs off. I started strength training, understanding basic movements and fundamentals. I found this very empowering.
At the end of 2019, I competed in my first powerlifting competition and I’ve been hooked ever since. I have competed 4 times and train each week with the intent to improve my performance for when the next competition comes around.
I fell in love with powerlifting as the intent of pushing yourself to the limit, both physically and mentally, to execute on the platform is empowering. There are many mental barriers to overcome and many emotions to hone in on when it comes to the main lifts.
So far my biggest lifts have been:
Squat - 145kg
Bench Press - 87.5kg
Deadlift - 180kg
During Covid, I had spent the majority of time upskilling and mastering my craft.
In 2020 I Started my business - Lady Luck Lifting.
The philosophy behind LLL, and my favourite thing about my job, is empowering other women with the tools to understand their capabilities and their strength. My tailored approach allows women to learn and move freely in a way that's suited to them, achieve their goals and become accountable.
It's such an incredible feeling knowing that my clients, my friends and other women around me in the gym realise how powerful and strong they really are.
