About the course;

Hi there,

My name is Joel Costello and I am the Fitness Program Manager at Fitness First The Zone.

I am writing to you today to let you know about an amazing course I recently completed, Exercise Technique, by Clive Rodell.

The course was fantastic. Very in depth. Clive is like Yoda. It was a privilege to learn from someone with so much experience working with gen pop to elite athletes.

I loved the way Clive delivered his message and could sense when we should remain on a subject and when we should move forward.

I couldn't recommend his course enough, just hanging out and learning from this guy is a pleasure. SO MUCH KNOWLEDGE

Thanks in advance,

Joel Costello

Proven Track Record

I achieved great results, when training under Clive's Programming and Guidance.
At one point I was rigorously tested by the A.I.S. and they told me I had achieved better results than previously.
They said "We don't know who he is, but stick with him"!

Liane Fenwick (Olympian)

Clive was my Coach and Mentor for over 10 years. Spanning my career from Top Amateur Junior Surfer to my time on the Professional Surfing World Tour
During that time, I achieved 2 x Australian Pro-Am Titles and One World Pro- Am Title

Merrick Davis ( Former Pro Tour Surfer and Surf School Owner )

I first met Clive, when he was the Operations Manager at the Harbord Diggers Club in 1991. His knowledge impressed me, so I asked him to be my Personal Trainer on an ongoing basis and specifically for my Cold Chisel and Ian Moss Tours. This association has endured the test of time and Clive is still my 'go-to' for Fitness and training advice.

ABOUT CLIVE

49 YEARS OF TRAINING WITH WEIGHTS and ATHLETIC PRINCIPLES

Currently working with Australian and State Champion Jnr Surfer Landen Smales.

Also working in the (Queensland equivalent of the H.P.C.)

The O.P.C. at Maroochydore.

Clive was first introduced to Weight Training in 1973, by British Pursuit Cycling Champion Derek Hunt. Derek passed on some of the European training tips, at that time the U.K. Cyclists were not utilising these methods.

A Natural Progression ensued, as the experience of strength and conditioning bore fruits at the top end of the U.K. Surfing Scene. Clive's hunger for learning was next Enhanced by one of Britain's top Track and Field Conditioners.

Clive moved to Australia's Gold Coast from Cornwall and he continued his learning from Body Building Champions.

Clive also got heavily embroiled in the Australian Surfing scene, as both a Professional Coach (including A.S.P. Pro Tour surfers), and major event Judge, Kirra Surfriders Club Coach (which also included winning the Senior Men's trophy in the prestigious Kirra Surfriders Club). In the early 90s Clive was Queenscliff Boardriders Coach.

A move to Sydney, in 1990, saw an introduction to the Australian Strength and Conditioning Association and the luminaries at the Narrabeen Academy of Sport (eventually these Luminaries would be known as the best of NSWIS).

A mix of work included running the Manly and Collaroy Aloha Surf Shops, plus many guises in the fitness industry as a Lecturer, Gym Instructor and Operations Manager at the famous Harbord Diggers Club.

In 1994 during his 12 year employment at The 'Diggers', Clive was responsible for (80-90% of) the design and implementation of, (at that time), one of the State of the Art facilities in Australia. As Operations Manager Clive ran the day to day operations of the Gym, 25mtr Pool, Rostering, Employment etc.

He started an Athlete Scholarship Progamme for the area's top athletes. This Scholarship Programme drew in athletes including; Layne Beachley, Sandon Stolle, Elke Graham, George Gregan and a host of others.

This association led to a successful association with several of the Athletes, including World Champion Surfer Layne Beachley and Olympian Liane Fenwick, Sydney to Hobart crew members and more.

In the 90s, Clive became a Level 2 Strength and Conditioning Coach, worked as a lecturer at Loftus TAFE, spoke on the 90s fitness circuit (including Filex), achieved 3rd in the Sydney Masters Surfing category, Coached Elite NSW Surfing Cadets, spoke at Cycling Coaches Courses, Pioneered Indoor Cycle Training on real bikes, (Teaching workshops and exhibition work, using carefully selected BPM music to scientifically mimic real cycling and adherence to the BPM/RPM ). After attending one of Clive's workshops, someone later claimed this as his idea!

Won C grade in Manly Warringah Cycle Club, trained Cold Chisel guitarist Ian Moss, Singer Steve Clisby, Bass Player Craig Calhoun and many more. He provided Customer Service training to the Billy Hyde's music stores, Leisure Co and Fitness First. Clive also has many other side projects and interests.

Clive started his own PT business in 2002 and still runs that alongside lecturing on Cert 3 and 4 Fitness (PT) and Diploma of Sport courses, He also does International speaking gigs on Elite Training. Including Surfing Medicine International Conferences, U.K. Universities and various others.

BOSU PLANK
Notice, that if you 'stood me upright' I would have good posture.
That is what the Plank Exercise is meant to enhance.
Next time you see one being performed, check the posture from the 'upright stance perspective', then you'll know whether it is being taught/performed correctly!
