RIDICULOUSLY HOT IS AN APT DESCRIPTION FOR IFBB FITNESS BIKINI COMPETITOR CLAUDETTE RENNEY, WHO IS OUR LATEST ME BABE. Helping others is Claudette’s passion and seeing the change in someone through their fitness journey is incredibly satisfying for this 28-year-old, who lives and works in Johannesburg. And let’s be totally honest, who would not want to try out a class with this insanely good-looking personal trainer?

Who is Claudette Renney?

I'm an extremely driven and passionate person. I always wanted to become an actress but when I left school I decided to study hairdressing while working in Hyde Park. I started exercising and have since made fitness an essential component of my life. In 2015 I studied sport science while I was making a living in America. At the time I was employed at an executive gym and working with rehabilitation clients. There I found so much comfort in seeing the tremendous progress they were making every day. Inspired by these people who have worked hard to reach their goals, I started competing in 2016 and did four shows in six months. In 2017 I started working as a personal trainer and group instructor.

Have you always lived a fit-focused lifestyle?

No, I only got involved in the fitness industry while I was abroad. I was working super long hours and having to walk to the gym demotivated me. One morning I decided that was it and I've been training consistently ever since. Competing in shows made me realise how much I love the competitive side of the sport, which makes me work harder in the gym. Working out is something that holds me accountable and keeps me motivated.

What's your training strategy?
