Mick quotes on his Chek Australia training........



HOW DID YOU TRAIN FOR YOUR SUCCESSFUL TITLE CAMPAIGN?




'I’ve been working with CHEK Australia for some years now and 2009 was no different. I’ve got a good understanding of CHEK training and my practitioners know me really well, so they’re quick to identify what I need to work on physically and psychologically. I also trained with some of the high performance coaching staff at Red Bull this year and got a lot from what they had to offer.'

Chelsea Claims second at Rip Curl Women’s Pro Search.




Chelsea! Great result lifting her up on the ratings !


Chelsea trains with Brodie Ledgerwood at CHEK Australia. After leaving the tour to have her baby girl Meika in 2008 Chelsea is back in great form! 


Well done Chels!


Former ASP Women’s World Champion (2005) Chelsea Hedges (AUS), claims second, in punchy two-to-three foot (1 metre) surf at Belgas, in Portugal at the Rip Curl Women’s Pro Search.


For Hedges, today’s return to form marks the first time the inspiring goofy-footer has seen a Finals’ berth since 2007, and moves her from 8th to 6th on the 2009 ASP Women’s World Tour ratings. Her dominance in the earlier rounds of the Rip Curl Women’s Pro Search cannot be overlooked as she consistently dominated the playful pits of Belgas, even eliminating reigning two-time ASP Women’s World Champion and current ASP Women’s World No. 1, Stephanie Gilmore (AUS), 21, in the Quarterfinals.

"Mick's focus has been fantastic he works hard at all levels and we are extremely proud to see all that work pay off for him. I am really looking forward to seeing him when he arrives home before he is off to Hawaii for the final leg of the tour" Jan Carton




Mick Fanning Claims 2009 Rip Curl Pro Search, Solidifies ASP Title Race LeadSUPERTUBOS, Peniche/Portugal (Wednesday, October 28, 2009) 


Mick Fanning (AUS), 28, former ASP World Champion (2007) and current ASP World No. 1, has claimed the 2009 Rip Curl Pro Search at Supertubos in Portugal, defeating fellow Finalist Bede Durbidge (AUS), 26, and cementing his lead in the now two-horse race for the 2009 ASP World Title.

“Yesterday was one of the best days of competition I’ve ever seen and we all showed up today and had to adjust our frame of mind to deal with the in size and quality,” Fanning said. “I’ve been surfing conditions like this all summer at home so I knew what I had to do out there. I was able to pick off a couple of good scores at the start and then I basically had to sit on Bede (Durbidge) so he didn’t get any back on me.”

We are so Stoked on your Win in France Mick Well done!

Welcome To CHEK Australia


Hi I am Jan Carton,

I am a Holistic Health Practitioner, and corrective exercise therapist. I have 25 years of practical experience in the fitness industry and I love what I do!

I am a high-performance conditioning specialist and I also Specialist in End Stage Rehabilitation from sports and work related injuries. Here at Chek Australia we offer a firmly grounded – effective approach to Health and Musculoskeletal Wellness.

My passion is to work with people who truly want to find their true potential in life, in Work and in Sport

I feel there is no substitute for Lifes lessons but many of us are living our lives based on our past conditioning, and are not aware of where our potential really lies. I have the compassion to work with my clients on many levels and ultimately work with them to achieve their dreams.

We have a Great Team at CHEK Australia that has built CHEK Australia to where it is today and I am excited to see where we will grow to in the future.

We look forward to hearing from you and chatting on our Blog.

Best Wishes,

Jan
