The First Lady’s trainer reveals to Woman’s Day the program that helped her to drop four dress sizes.
Kevin Rudd‘s better half Therese Rein is fast becoming Australia’s first lady of health and fitness after dropping an incredible 25kg in six months.
The businesswoman and mother-of-three has spent almost every day this year working out in the gym and sticking to a special low-carb, high-protein diet to gain a fit and leaner figure.
It’s been the most discussed transformation in Australia, but Therese, 51, has kept her diet and exercise secrets under wraps – until now.
Trainer Al Forsyth confirms that he tailor-made a special exercise program for Therese, designed to help her lose weight after she suffered deeply hurtful criticism for what was often referred to as her “frumpy style”.
“Obviously Therese wanted to lose weight and tone-up,” Al says. “I tailor-made a program to suit her needs, with particular emphasis on altitude training because she is going on a trip with us next month.”
The former Special Air Service Regiment commando, who regularly takes executives trekking on the Kokoda Trail, says Therese is incredibly committed to her main goal of losing weight.
“She does enjoy coming to the gym,” he says.
“She is doing exceptionally well. She’s very committed to the cause of losing weight but she is not trying to do it all in one week – which increases her chances of keeping it off…”
