When she’s not being a personal trainer with Alive…
You’ll find Sue working with older adults and adults with injuries or health problems, instructing older adult classes at the gym, as well as Deepdene U3A (University of the third age).
Sue’s most memorable experience:
I have also been fortunate enough to participate in two Deakin studies regarding older adults and diet in regard to muscle recovery. I have been asked to participate in an ExMed study about the correlation of exercise and recovery of men with prostate cancer.
