The event was hosted by trainer and bodybuilder Joy Flint, who spoke about nutrition and fitness goals.

Kerri Rodley of Port Stephens Women in Business told News Of The Area, “For me the takeaways were that getting into shape is 97% diet and 3% exercise.”

Joy explained how to get into the shape you want to be with an hour a day of physical activity be it cleaning, gardening or walking the dog.

On top of this women need to perform four 45 minute sessions exercise like running, or weight training to be physically fit.

“Joy spoke about how important it is for women to do weight training of some sort as this impacts all facets of women’s health, as well as the importance of eating a good balance of protein, carbs and fats at every meal” said Kerri.

Joy Flint told News Of The Area, “It doesn’t matter what your goal is whether it is bodybuilding or something else, it is about committing to the goal, setting it and going for it.”

Joy works with people of all levels of fitness to achieve their goals.

The network also took the opportunity to get involved in the Plastic Free Port Stephens movement and promoted the campaign #Icommitttodoingmybit with the network planning to have single use plastic free meetings.
