Hi, I'm Bree!
I'm a professional track sprinter competing in the 100m, 200m and 4x100m events.
Originally from Sydney, I started my sprinting career in surf lifesaving at the age of 6. At 17, I moved my life up to Queensland to pursue my sport professionally, where I became a multiple beach sprint and flag medallist at state, Australian and World Championship levels.
In 2019 I decided to switch lanes, and changed my focus to track and field. Since then I have become a dual World Championship representative, Commonwealth Games bronze medallist, three time 100m national silver medallist, and equal eighth fastest Australian female of all time over 100m (11.23 seconds).
Outside of athletics, I juggle working part-time in Public Relations at LSKD.
From the starting blocks to the finish line, Bulk Nutrients has been a game-changer in my training regimen. Their supplements and nutritional support have become an integral part of my training routine.
As a regularly tested athlete, the Bulk Nutrients' HASTA tested range is the only range from Bulk Nutrients that I consume to ensure I am fuelling myself with safe and legal products for my sport.
I hope my supplement recommendations below are helpful for you!
Recommendations
Here are some of the Bulk Products I love...
HASTA Whey Protein Isolate
Why I love it: If you're looking to try protein for the first time, then this one is it! HASTA Whey Protein Isolate is my go-to, everyday supplement for that extra hit of protein. I love both the Chocolate and Vanilla flavours depending on what recipe I am adding it into. It's clean, mixes well, and tastes great!
How I use it: For breakfast, I mix 1 scoop (30g) into my yoghurt as part of my overnight Weet-Bix recipe or mix it into my oats recipe (depending on what breaky I'm feeling that morning). I also add it into my smoothies, and consume it by itself after training sessions.
Pre Workout 101
Why I love it: I do all of my track sessions in the afternoon, so sometimes I need that afternoon caffeine hit, and Pre Workout 101 does the job! It mixes so well, and I love the taste of the HASTA Berry Lemonade flavour.
How I use it: Two tsps mixed with 600mls of icy cold water - cold water makes it hit different!
BCAA Recovery
Why I love it: I train 5 days a week, so recovery is super important to me and I love that the HASTA Lemonade BCAAs help speed up my recovery! It helps reduce my muscle soreness, speeds up my recovery time and gives me a better retention of maximum muscular force.
How I use it: 5 flat tsps with 500ml of icy cold water (again.. cold water hits different)
SportsFuel 101
Why I love it: This supplement is awesome for sustaining my energy levels during my big training sessions.
How I use it: 1 scoop (40g) with 400-600mls of icy cold water before/during a training session
Electrolyte Plus
Why I love it: Training on the Gold Coast is hot and sweaty, and this supplement is excellent in keeping me hydrated - which is super important!
How I use it: 1.5 scoop (60g) in 600mls of icy cold water before/during training
My Approach to Nutrition
I would say I am pretty relaxed when it comes to eating and I don't specifically count or monitor my calorie intake.
However, I always make healthy food choices that fuel my training and performance.
I am always on the go so I usually meal prep for the week and then treat myself on weekends with dining out or a sneaky cheat meal.
My Day on a Plate
I would say my go to breakfast is overnight Weet-Bix or oats, and my lunches and dinners always change up by always contain all food groups.
My favourite combo at the moment is salmon, rice, and veg.
What is my average daily calorie intake? No idea, I don't track my calorie intake.
Foods I avoid... I don't avoid any foods as I feel like everything is allowed when its in moderation. For example, I try and avoid sweets and sugar, but don't completely restrict myself from consuming them. Balance is key!
Foods I crave... Chocolate and lollies. The will power to only have these in moderation is hard!
Go to cheat meal: GYG pulled beef nachos - yum!!

Latest Results
Do you have any medium/long term goals you're working towards?
Qualify for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
Have you had any exceptional results in the last few years?
The past 4 years since I made my cross to Track and Field has been an absolute whirlwind for me! I have achieved more goals than I could have imagined.
I represented Australia at the 2022 Oregon World Athletics Championships in the 100m becoming just the third Australian female in more than two decades to compete in the blue-ribbon event. In the same year, I competed at the 2022 Birmingham Commonwealth Games where I finished 13th in the 100m and 4th in the 4x100m (later upgraded to bronze medallists after an anti-doping violation by the winning team).
One year later I became a dual World Championship representative, competing in the 100m and 4x200m at the Budapest World Championships. I also currently sit as the =8th fastest Australian female of all-time over 100m.
