Under the Microscope! - Nicole Rasmussen

1.  Your profession?

I’m currently working in a 6month contract role in recruitment.

2.  Where do you work?

I work in the HR department at BoysTown, a not-for-profit organisation that assists disadvantaged young people and their families.

3. Years in business?

I have only worked in recruitment for 2 ½ years. Prior to that I worked in international education in Japan and Australia.

4.  What typically do you deal with in business?

I work with hiring managers to provide recruitment services.

5.  Do you have long standing clients?

6. What do people say about you?

That I am inquisitive and analytical. I think that means I ask lots of questions!

7. What does no one know about you?

As a child, I wanted to be a back-up dancer.

8. If you weren’t doing what you do now what would you be doing?

International relations between Australia and Japan.

9. If you had one key skill, what would it be?

Awareness.

10. How long have you been training?

Almost 2 years, starting with group training for the first 6 months.

11. What do you like about training with us?

It’s tailored perfectly.

12. What made you start with us?

My work colleague recommended I join the group fitness sessions as they seemed challenging yet well-thought through and safe.

13. What has been your biggest training achievement to date?

Being able to do the 5km run. I would have never believed that I was ready or capable of it at the time either had Alex not suggested I was.

14. What would you say to others to get them moving and start training with the lab?

That the style of the trainers is subtle yet extremely effective and you can feel reassured that you will only be pushed to do what they have ascertained you are physically ready to do even if you don’t know it yet which is the best surprise of all!

15. Do you have any health and fitness objectives?

As I am currently 6 months pregnant, they have changed for 2008! I am pleased I had a good base level of health and fitness going into this pregnancy which has helped, and will continue to help, during these months and I am already looking forward to increasing my exercise type and intensity again later in the year.

16. Any words of wisdom to share with the rest of our clients?

It’s an amazing (re)discovery of what you and your body can do and how much better it can feel.
