Chris Woods

Passionate Personal Fitness Trainer successful at making workouts fun and rewarding. Expertise in instructing clients on proper lifting techniques and educating clients on nutrition and hydration needs. Experience providing instruction for one-on-one sessions, buddy sessions and group training classes.

Finished Level 4 Fitness Leader at NZIHF and currently Studying Level 5 due to be completed by November 2024 by distance. Currently filling in taking parts of group fitness classes at Garage Gym in Methven. My passion for fitness began 8 years ago after attempting the "Peak to Pub" multisport event and really struggling which led me to consult with a trainer friend of mine and attending his classes and losing over 25kg. I have been an avid gym goer ever since and firmly believe in the physical and mental benefits that exercise brings

I enjoy music, singing and playing guitar.  I often do musical theatre locally in Ashburton and play at private functions and restaurants and bars in my spare time. 

I have a dog named Blue who is a border collie and very active and gets me out of the house. 

I do not currently have a First Aid Certificate but happy to obtain one. I have had three or four in the past but they will be expired.

I am not currently REPS registered but have done elective courses in Nutrition, Strength, Power and Plyometric Training and HIIT Training which all provide points. I am signed up for Boxing Fundamentals and Mobility and Movement later in the year.
