T
asmania-based Krista Dennis, has been a police officer since 2005 and
is currently a detective constable in the criminal investigation branch.
A former state-level netballer with a long-standing interest in health
and fitness, Krista always harboured a desire to broaden her own fitness
knowledge, as well as help others achieve their health goals.
“I love my job and I love exercise too, so I thought – why not become a
personal trainer and maybe one day I can combine the two roles and train
police recruits in fitness?”
As a result, Krista enrolled in Australian Fitness Network’s online Elite
Personal Trainer course (www.fitnessnetwork.com.au/ePT) and gained her
Certificates III and IV in Fitness.
“Even though I enjoy exercise, I know that some people find it monotonous,
so I want to be able to show those people how exercise can be fun,”
she says. And nowadays she does exactly that! Through her part time
role as a trainer with Citywide Fitness in Mornington in Tasmania (www.
citywidefitness.com.au) Krista has successfully combined her fitness dream
with her dream job.
