flick the switch

Super-fit women reveal the moment there was less work in their workout and fitness finally came together

Light-bulb fitness moments from super-fit women.

“I’ve been through lots of different phases

of training and exercising out of the water. It wasn’t until I was injured and took up clinical Pilates and yoga that I felt like I’d finally found something that worked – I saw massive improvements in my body’s strength and flexibility. The better my body feels, the more excited I am about exercising. I tried going to the gym to train with weights but I could never commit! Using the reformer made me feel stronger and I learned how to switch muscles on. I felt a difference in my surfing, too. Now I surf in the morning and go to Pilates in the afternoon. If the surf is bad, I add in 12-minute cardio interval workouts to keep me moving. It’s great for when I’m travelling, living in hotels.” LAURA ENEVER, pro surfer and Billabong ambassador
