Id like to introduce you to Maree Stubbington............. Most of you would know Maree as the face behind the callouts at the NABBA/WFF events here in New Zealand.. She is a qualified judge and used to be a competitor herself which  included her travelling to the states and winning one event over there.  But another thing Maree specialises in is assisting females with their plastic surgery choices and operations.. Maree accompanies woman, normally a couple at a time at anytime of year,  to Thailand for surgery and oversees the whole procedure for them from start till finish.  Her service includes travelling with the woman to Thailand, organising the accomodation, staying with the client before and after surgery, cooking nutritious and nourishing meals  and assisting in all aspects of recovery at the hotel, PLUS her speciality, hitting the shopping hot spots in Thailand.   The surgery procedures are varied but her clients procedures include  all forms of  breast surgery, eye surgery, abdominal surgery including tummy tucks and lipo and thigh lifts..  So if you are thinking of having any procedure done overseas rather than at home here in NZ, then contact Maree at   This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

My latest facebook friend is Teish Paton.. Teish works at "Pumping Iron Gym" and "Supplements Direct" in Whangarei as a personal trainer.  Teish is married to Paul Paton who has 30 years of experience in powerlifting, bodybuilding and the art of selling supplements.  However I was lucky enough to be the person they chose to help Teish through with her contest training for an event in May 2012. We met on Saturday afternoon and spent a good two hours chatting, training and doing a small amount of posing..  Lucky for me Teish is already fully into nutrition so I dont have to worry about what she is eating when she is behind closed doors..   So our goal is to add more muscle on her frame and develope her posing ability to first class. All simple really.  Im looking forward to seeing how Teish developes over time and I welcome the inviteto help her with her goals.   We worked well together the other day going through some of the "BubbleButt" programme and doing some chin and up dip tests. She worked hard for such a muggy day. You will be hearing more about Teish next year as I add clients progress reports…

This is my good friend Lisa Taubenheim. I first was introduced to Lisa by internet when she wrote to me about bodybuilding and we corresponded quite abit. When I went to the Arnold the second time she came to meet us and although we didnt have alot of time it was really nice to meet her.. Lisa spoils me.. she sends me the most amazing pressies and she really is very generous and I must get my a into g and do the same. Lisa is an amazing competitor with huge determination and motivation to improve with every event. She is in training once again now and I wish her all the best. Im hoping to get to see her again this year sometime and in the meantime we write often but our skype appts have never come to fruition cos of the time difference and us both being so busy. Maybe in our winter aye Lisa. In the meantime you can contact Lisa on Facebook and have a look at her pics, give her some encouragement and praise and maybe you will make a new friend in the process. Find Lisa on Facebook

This is a friend of mine Nikki. Well she is a client actually and Im really excited with Nikki as she is going to be entering into her first bikini event in 8 weeks time. She has an amazing body all year round and will be aiming to promote bodysculpting and fitness in her music video made for her song "Overhaul" which she wrote herself. Watch out for it as it will feature some very prominant kiwis from the bodybuilding scene.
