Hi everyone, I'm Rebecca and I'm so excited to be running the Lift and Lunch session this year! I'll be teaching you how to safely perform some fundamental barbell exercises, then we'll have a discussion about the benefits of physical activity and some factors that might be preventing you from sticking to your workout regimes. 

I've been working as a Fitness Instructor & Personal Trainer at Qmotion for almost four years now and am currently studying an MSc in Sport & Exercise Psychology, and I can't wait to share the knowledge I have learned so far with you!
