Rachel Tropea
Personal Trainer and Owner – Move Inspiring Change
Suburb: West End
AKA: Rach
I’m renowned for: According to my clients, dishing out burpees and saying “Yeah-Yeah”.
Only a local would know… Townsville’s round-abouts.
My most memorable holiday was… 2013 my partner and I had a white Christmas in Austria. We spent our Christmas morning making a snowman, followed by a snowball fight, a horse-drawn carriage ride and tobogganing down the Alps. Something I will never forget.
Right now I wish I was… at Nusa Lembongan Bali, relaxing on the beach.
My favourite day is: Sunday – it’s my day to recharge, relax, unwind and plan for my week ahead.
The biggest influence in my life… My partner. I wouldn’t be where I am today without him. His knowledge and guidance with my career has helped me get to where I am today and I thank him for pushing me outside of my comfort zone.
The funniest thing that ever happened to me was… 2013 in Munich, I decided to tie my new hiking boots too tight and my feet went completely numb with pins and needles. After walking for over an hour complaining about how cold my feet were, my partner checked my boots. Realising how tight they were, he untied my shoes and told me I’d completely cut the circulation off in my feet.
Someone famous I met was: Bear Grylls.
My motto is: To inspire ladies to move their bodies on a daily basis.
