This surfer Alex Christensen, originally from Wellington, has been in Dunedin studying for a few years now. He has studied microbiology, genetics and physiology. He is now completing his Masters in Entrepreneurship. Alex was a regular at Unipol for 4 years but didn’t see the results he was expecting with all his hard work. A couple of his friends Rachel and Mike convinced him to come down to us for a couple of free sessions and the rest as they say is history. The olympic lifts have particularly made an impression on Alex and his favorite exercise is now the Clean & Jerk. Outside the gym you can find him either in the water surfing or snowboarding in the mountains somewhere around the country. He is a super laid back guy and always keen to get involved in the banter. This is also the guy who decided he might as well go for 3 unbroken muscle ups the day he got his first so he is definitely keen to improve as much as possible, and I’m sure with a bit of guidance, he could be a good competitive athlete.
Today is our Open day starting at 3pm so make sure you get your friends and family to come down and have a look. There will be plenty of activities throughout the day on Vogel Street.
