As the wife of DAZ, I did find it hard to  write this article on just how amazing he is. Daz has always been an up-front man within his profession. Over the many years together I did under-go a transformation into his world of competition. My journey as a figure competitor under the training and guidance of Daz seen me compete in my early years in the open class divisions winning countless awards and championships which took me to the Australian national championships. Retiring for a few years I decided to come back and train for what many see as the impossible. Well... Daz took me to the nationals once more. Along the way in the same year winning both the Qld open and master figure categories and state over-all. His knowledge is far beyond the many trainers I have read about with competitors in all categories taking out regional and state awards. He is truly passionate and dedicated to his profession and gives nothing less than all his time to look after and build his clients in their personal health and wellbeing journeys.

Reply: It's crazy to look back and remember the many hours spent in preparation for what was to become an amazing journey. I have trained many athletes in varying sports and will say to this day without prejudice, I have never connected with any person in my training circle who, had committed so much. Your level of attention and abilities to continuously work and improve has always amazed me. One of the many traits in you was and still is your incredible fitness levels and desire to always complete what I put infront of you. These are some of many attributes you have and should be proud off.

As a husband, to watch you achieve and deservingly win so many state and national titles, I am so proud of. Today you still train with conviction and passion showing age as we all do, is not a barrier. Congratulation on all you have achieved. DAZ

Daryl ”Daz” Tenadii was my coach when I started out training for competitions  in bodybuilding in the early 90s. I was a mere aspirant, when Daz took me under his wing. His meticulous attention to detail is awe-inspiring. His knowledge about fitness, nutrition, training, competition preparation, and both the psychology and physiology of the fitness realm… is something most people can only dream of aspiring to.

I went on to compete in many comps under Daz’s tutelage, and those days were the best of my life.

That was 30 years ago, and I remember them fondly…. Now I am 60 years old and still turn to Daz for direction with my training, diet and direction for a healthy and strong lifestyle.

Daz has been doing this for a long time, and he is the best in the business.

I can still see those steel brown eyes when he delivers his signature line:

“SECOND IS THE FIRST LAST”

You will never go wrong with Daz on your side.

Reply: Buzza those days will remain with me as I remember the training sessions we went through. Your commitment to setting goals and working towards a dream many never reach is something I will always be proud of in you.  Although the days have passed memories stay. Thank you for the times share and along with Gilly (RIP) you two were and are always the best. DAZ

Throughout my Health and Fitness Journey I came across DAZ, Thanks to his dedication and incredible industry knowledge I was able to train with confidence and awareness knowing my dreams to achieve weight loss and body shaping would be possible. I did reach my goals and lose 16kg in six months but more importantly my health concerns brough forward by my doctor have completely gone. I am in the best physical and mental state every imagined and this is all thanks to the beautiful support under the banner of Rapid Results Australia and their maters coach, DAZ.

Alice: I hope all you have achieved was the epics to what you worked hard for. Setting possibles in any area in life is what we make of it and, your personal commitments were and are proof of that. Good luck with your new journey. DAZ

I have had the pleasure of training under Daz as a Personal Trainer for approximately 5 years.  Daz is an exceptional personal trainer with knowledge and expertise that is invaluable in helping you to understand the exercise required and the reasoning behind why the exercise is required.  His enthusiasm, positive attitude and motivation is next level.  There is never a session that is the same and he is always thinking outside the box to make it engaging and fun.  Under his guidance, I was able to lose approximately 15 kg and never did I feel hungry, disappointed or the need to give up.  Daz has not only excelled in this area of personal training, but has had such an incredible life with experiences that have helped him to become such an approachable person who listens to what you want, understands your needs and gets on with the job of helping you to become a better person and have a more enjoyable life.  I would highly recommend Daz as a person to employ to guide you through any form of personal training or life training.

Replay: Wow special lady, Amanda, what a journey we had. Sharing so many times on the floor as you progressed in your training and results is why I do this. Making a friend also became a special blend. watching you push through personal barriers with a smile at all times only makes the task of providing so much easier. This is why you never gave up or said no to what I expected from you. DAZ

I started training with Daz in 2016.

Daz is very supportive and knowledgeable. He helped me reach my fitness goals when I wanted to step on stage and compete again. He helped me take my training to the next level with structured training and personalized nutrition. I stepped on stage with my best physic and walked away with 2 placings. Even when not in a competitive phase, Daz was there to guide and push me to my limits and full potential. Within this it gave me confidence and lots of knowledge to keep one’s self on track inside and outside of the gym. I cannot thank him enough. 
Always Claire 
Never Forget your amazing.

Reply: Clair, it's amazing to look back and remember the days when we first ran into each other. I was amazed in your attention to training and commitments at the time. Working with you to take you to competition level was a journey you deserved. As you know, preparation for any event in life comes passion and awareness in what we do, your personal delivery gave you the results you should always be proud off. Congratulations on all your successes. DAZ

Throughout my 40’s, I had tried (unsuccessfully) to train with weights by myself in the gym. Upon moving to the Sunshine Coast, I met Master Coach “Daz” from Rapid Results Australia. Turning 50, I needed a new approach and one that involved a complete all-round weight and fitness structure. He designed a comprehensive 4-part and 6-week program individually tailored to meet my training goals. It was an amazing and detailed structure coupled with his daily and weekly feedback that produced an immediate difference. I was so impressed with his adaptability and knowledge. Always ready to make suggestions and modifications with the most encouraging and friendly demeanor. I would recommend Daz and his Rapid Results fitness regime to anyone looking to begin or even improve their personal fitness journey.

Reply: Johhny, crossing paths with you in later years become what is today, a friendship we both respect. Allowing me the time to help you on your personal health and fitness journey is something I am very proud of. You opened my eyes to a new version in client training, one that allowed me to see and put in place a program training system that would help so many. I thank you for this and the friendships we have. travel the journey in good health. DAZ

Meeting DAZ would become the best reason I could find what I wanted. In 1991, a well-built, athletic-looking gentleman walked into my café asking for a cup of tea and a salad sandwich. With his order, he requested to have the crust removed. I asked him why he did not eat his crust, and he replied, I don’t do crust even though they do hold a great % of good nutrition overall.

Asking him what he meant, he explained that the crust, although worthless and a waste of eating time, did, in fact, contain a higher percentage of nutrients but also contained high levels of sodium. He said he was happy to sacrifice the nutritional value in the crusts and add a combination of healthy salads in exchange.

WELL, THAT JUST MADE SENSE

After 15 minutes of explaining my health issues, he said, let me help you. 1-month passed, along with three PT sessions a week and 3 walking exercise charts I had to do every morning. The scale showed a loss of 16kg.

Now, just for the record, I weighed 164kg.

After 3 months, I had lost 48KG, was walking better, sleeping great and funny enough, enjoying the food Daz had me eating. I never went hungry, but I will admit, I did have a cheeseburger twice a week just to keep me up when I felt down.

Six months in, I had lost 72kg. My family, friends and customers would tell me every day how good I looked, which only fueled the fire to reach my goal of 86kg. Twelve months on, weighing in at 85.4kg, was the most amazing day in my life. I felt 10 years younger and in my best shape.

Today, I am retired and living an amazing life, which would never have been possible if I had not met DAZ.

His conviction, trust, support and knowledge to deliver is what makes him the person so many love him for. On the weigh-in day, I gave him a gift I was given over 30 years ago from a man I was in love with. Back then, I decided not to marry him because, to me, I was just too “FAT” to love. Sadly, he passed away. That gift was a hand-crafted human heart in Jade, which he told me was his love for me. I wanted DAZ to have this as my way of saying thank you.

By the way, DAZ did not charge me a cent for all that hard work and support. Always in my heart DAZ

Reply: Elizabeth or El for short, what a journey we had. Without question this was the longest working time I have ever spent with one person on a weight loss program and one that I will always remind me why I do this. Your passion to reach your dream was only a small part of what made you special. Countless days you cried never knowing where you were going or even if it was possible. Wel El, you did get their and with amazing results. To reach your goal in a loss of 86kg is not just proof it was possible by more that, you never gave up when the going got tough. Thank you for the beautiful gift which to this day I hold special along with other memories. You are amazing. DAZ

Over-view:

As a training coach I have been blessed with a rare talent to seek out the weakness in all who have crossed my pathway in training. I have never allowed that weakness to shadow what would become my clients results but more so work with them and slowly remove them from thier life. Building positives is only one  ingredient in achieving and this I have always strived for when meeting new clients along with working with current clients along the way. I am an up-front man with words that for many may be intimidating but, I never back down from a challenge and will always give the best options for results all my clients can be proud off. I have always believed in the finish line and that it must be crossed not mater the outcomes along the way. This has built long term friendships in so many areas I will always be so proud off. As a coach training so many hundreds of athletes I have always given all I can and stand proud of this. 

As known by all, I have a saying that has been my life motto... "I AM DAZ AND THIS IS WHAT I DO" Thank you all for the times, friendship and memories. DAZ
