Jenna Lee Bodyfit

My name is Jenna and I am the face behind JL Bodyfit. I am a qualified Personal Trainer and Group Fitness Instructor and have been in the Fitness industry for 4 years now.

I started my journey to a healthier lifestyle the same as most others do. I was never ‘overweight’, but I was very unhealthy and I had weight that I wanted to lose. My love for food is what made me put on weight, and my love for food – paired with my knowledge about it and exercise – is what helped me lose weight.

I was always unhappy with the way I looked in the mirror so I decided to make a change. This resulted in a lot of trial and error and yoyo dieting. I tried every diet out there: the juice diet, the fruit and veg diet, the shake diet. All of these diets helped me lose weight, but not one made me happier with my appearance nor were they able to help me keep the weight off for good.

It finally hit me one day when I stepped on the scales and the number I saw was higher than any number I had ever seen before that it was time I was in control of what my body looked like and I wouldn’t let it upset me every time I saw my reflection anymore. So, I made my first consultation with a Personal Trainer and was going to do anything to reach my goals.

Half way through my journey to a healthier happier me, I realised that being skinny wasn’t the only thing I wanted anymore. I had been following a few fitness pages on Instagram and realised I wanted to be like the girls I saw on my feed every day. I wanted to be toned with a perky butt. Stage 2 of my journey began.

After 8 months of training and healthy eating, I had lost a massive 12kg and was seeing some amazing muscle tone and I was stoked. FINALLY! I was happy with what I saw in the mirror! I never thought this day would come around.

It was at this point that I realised that my passion was to help others achieve the same results as I had so I enrolled to do my Certificate in Personal Training. I wanted to teach others that you don’t have to hate the person you see in the mirror and you can feel amazing. All you need is the right information and you can achieve your goals.

This is why I have created JL Bodyfit and am so excited that my passion and dream has finally come to life.
