Clawrence is passionate about fitness and when he’s not in the gym helping our members achieve their goals, he also works as a fireman!
When did you join the team at PCYC Mount Isa?
I have been a staff member at PCYC Mount Isa since March 2026 as an instructor for the Activ8 Group Training sessions. I originally signed up as a PCYC Gym+Fitness member in March 2025.
Why did you want to become a trainer and what do you love about the fitness industry?
I am very passionate about fitness, but even more passionate about working with people and helping them with their fitness journey. I love watching their confidence grow from 0 to 10 as they start to see results and believe in themselves and what they want to achieve.
What is your favourite Activ8 Group Training class to teach and why?
I absolutely love the Fit and 50 class, without a doubt. Watching some of our more senior members of the gym regain mobility they have not had for years, finding confidence just to leave the house and try this class and the relationships that are formed in this class are incredibly special. For some of them, this has become their social outing each week and they really look forward to attending and catching up with their gym friends.
What is your favourite moment in your personal fitness journey?
To date, it has been working with John who joined the Fit and 50 class right from the start of its roll out, and has not missed one session. He has been a gym member at PCYC Mount Isa for many years and used to quietly come and go each day without most people even knowing he was here. John’s progress with mobility from attending the classes is just unbelievable and watching John get excited about the new milestones that he is reaching is so incredibly rewarding.
Do you have any advice or inspirational quotes for others in the fitness industry?
Instead of saying “one day”, say “today is day one!”
