Our Story

About Peter

I have been a health and fitness science researcher for over 40 years, starting my professional career as an Exercise Physiologist. I lectured at a tertiary level in the field of health and fitness science and preventive health strategies for well over 10 years, before moving to the Whitsundays. My passion is trying to understand how heath and function tend to deteriorate with age. I typically spend between 2 and 4 hours a day keeping up with research publications from around the world. I am 65 years of age with a strong desire to help family, friends (and anyone interested), understand how they can apply the latest anti-ageing science and health-promoting strategies to offset the health and vitality consequences of simply getting older. I enjoy taking the complex world of science and make it easy to understand for the everyday person who just wants simple answers to common problems. I also make it as practical as possible with a major emphasis on the practical implication of science theory. From a health and fitness perspective, I offer the following experience: • Past manager of 2 fitness and health centres (Melbourne and Brisbane) • Owner/manager of own health and fitness centre • Technical adviser to largest health and fitness franchise in Australia ('Vigor Health' centres in the early 80’s) • Lectured in health and fitness for 13 years at University of Queensland (Human Movement Studies) and Brisbane Institute of TAFE • Established and conducted my own business 'Diagnostic Health and Fitness Services' for over 10 years – catering to individuals, sporting groups and corporate clients • Helped establish and personally conducted dozens of nationally accredited courses including:- * Fitness Leader/Personal Trainer course * Sports Coaching level 1 and 2 -' general principle' courses * Sports Medicine level 1 and 2 courses * Workplace Health and Safety Officers courses level 1 and 2 * 'Train the Trainer' and 'Instructional Skills' courses For the past 25 years I have enjoyed researching all topics pertaining to preventive health practices to minimise the risks for the most common lifestyle diseases – cardiovascular and stroke; type 2 diabetes; cancers; alzheimers; and autoimmune diseases. Due to my age I especially enjoy understanding how to slow down and to some extent reverse the ageing process, at least from a health and vitality aspect.
