ALEXANDRA MARIN
Accredited Exercise Scientist & Nutritionist
Meet Alex, DVP Fitness’ nutrition + fitness coach, who specialises in exercise science. Alex grew up being very active and always playing sport. She did athletics for over 10 years, also being involved in football, swimming, handball and netball. This is definitely where her passion stemmed from.
Unfortunately when she hit her 20’s she went through a period of having an unhealthy relationship with food and a very negative body image. This is when she knew she had to educate myself and learn the basics. Her ambitions include becoming a sports dietitian and assisting as many people and athletes and aim’s to educate people in a way that is individualised and show them that food is fuel.
In her own words ‘Let’s be real, who doesn’t love a fresh vanilla slice on a Sunday adventure or a bowl of delicious pasta on a Saturday night out with the girls’
