ABOUT ME
Will’s fitness journey began in 2010,during his final year of schooling, when he began training clients out of a small training studio.
On completion of his secondary education, he then commenced his Bachelor of Exercise and Sports Science at the University of Notre Dame, Fremantle. During this time Will worked part time as a personal trainer at Renouf Applecross, quickly beginning to realise this was his passion and what would become his life long mission to make an impact in the industry.
In 2013 Will competed in his first natural body building competition, taking out first place in male juniors. On completion of his Undergraduate degree in 2014, Will entrenched himself for the next 4 years working full time at Goodlife Myaree. Here, he was able to build a successful business and also take on an apprentice. During this time, he also travelled to Arizona to participate in a course on Fascial Stretch Therapy.
Towards the end of 2018 Will decided to enhance his knowledge and return to formal study, beginning his Masters of Exercise Science at Edith Cowan University. In 2018 Will also moved to run his business out of the Physique Code, being surrounded by some of the smartest minds in the industry. An increasing focus on body composition saw Will travel to Melbourne at the end of 2019 to undertake the ISAK Anthrompometry course. He is now an accredited skinfold practitioner. Will also completed his Masters of Exercise Science ( Strength and Conditioning) in 2020 graduating with High Distinction.
Currently, Will is working out Revo Fitness O’Connor, both with face-to-face and online clients across Australia.
