GOLD COAST gyms are facing a tough recovery after COVID-19 forced closures but Gold Coast personal trainer Charlotte Cook refuses to give up.
Since 2015, members at Ms Cook’s Carrara gym, MyFit Gold Coast, have raved about her on social media and now she has won the Bulletin’s Gold Coast Best Personal Trainer 2020 competition.
The public gave hundreds of reviews on Facebook and Bulletin subscribers chose a winner from 10 finalists.
When the trainer heard she claimed the top prize, she shed a tear.
“The last few months have been tumultuous,” she told the Bulletin.
“I didn’t get any rent relief so I had to shut down my gym, which has been devastating.
“But every cloud has a silver lining because I have been able to train outside in the park with the amazing MyFit community. I am so lucky to have such a fantastic bunch of members”.

Members told the Bulletin that Charlotte treats them all like family, and often visits elderly clients beyond training.
Michelle Campbell said she was “inspiring, always encouraging, passionate about her cause, and truly dedicated to her clients giving us a happier, healthier lifestyle”.
Ms Cook beat strong competition from Scott Hunt from Enhancement Personal Training, who came in a close second.
