Career
A WBFF athlete and role model for many fitness enthusiasts, Rachel Dillon represents Australia on the world stage. But the road to success was not always smooth. As a child, Rachel loved staying active and described herself as a 'cardio enthusiast.' Staying in shape was very important to Rachel. Her obsession with cardio was sometimes over the top. She thought doing cardio would give her the toned body she desired for a long time. After some time though, she realized that it was making her feel even worse. She started replacing cardio with weight training at this point and made radical changes to her training and diet. Eventually, she saw results. As she said,
“I never used to have a positive body image of myself. Modeling can be such a harsh industry and they would always point out your flaws or why you weren’t good enough in areas. It left me feeling like I wasn’t good enough.”
A Newly Gained Confidence
In the aftermath of this short-lived modeling career, Rachel returned to fitness. By working out hard in the gym and working with her partner, she completely transformed her figure. Combining strength training and high-intensity interval training helped her shape and sculpt her muscles. She immediately fell in love with these activities. Rachel's self-confidence grew with each improvement she made. In her words;
"I no longer compared myself to anyone else. I was constantly working on me and bettering myself each day.”
Training Others
She became naturally inclined to share what she learned with other women when she experienced the benefits of the right training and nutrition on her body. That is when she started her personal training career. Over time, her passion for fitness grew to inspire more and more people - eventually allowing her to become a full-time fitness influencer. According to her,
“There is nothing more rewarding than seeing the positive impact of helping other women to achieve amazing things and transform their lives. I am lucky to be a part of such an empowering driven group of women. Seeing the effort they put in on a daily basis drives me to be my best.”
Becoming an Online Sensation
Rachel became a sensation online after working hard for years. She helped people all over the world with training and nutrition advice. In order to help as many women as possible, she began running boot camps and went on to become an entrepreneur online. The fitness influencer has continued to grow in popularity since then and is now regarded as one of Australia's top fitness influences.
“I’ve truly poured my heart and soul into this, and am so grateful to be able to work with thousands of incredible women from all across the globe.”
Currently, Rachel Dillon is a fitness instructor, model, and influencer with 1.3 million Instagram followers. She has won the title three times in the World Bikini Fitness Federation's bikini world championship.
