Brendan Dales – CrossFit Coach – CrossFit 4165

Brendan has been involved in fitness for as long as he can remember, with a super active and high achieving sporting family he was always going to be involved in health and fitness at some level.

Brendan played premier grade rugby for many years and also was selected to represent Queensland playing against international teams such as Fiji and Papua New Guinea. This exposed him to high level training and coaching which he believes formed the basis for wanting to stay involved in the fitness industry. After Brendan’s rugby career finished he needed something to keep him fit and healthy, this is when he discovered CrossFit.

Brendan started CrossFit 4 years ago and was instantly hooked, and as his technique and strength grew he started to enter into various competitions finishing inside the top 15 in all major comps entered. After 18mths of training he entered Australia’s Fittest Athlete competition and competed against the top CrossFitter’s in Australia including current games athletes and finished 34^th in Australia.
