PIA ZUSSA

Body Ripped is proud to welcome Pia Ariana Zussa to our select
group of physique and figure athletes.
Formerly a teacher, Pia is a firm believer in the fitness lifestyle and healthy eating, and loves to spread the message
In her own words: "I still teach on a casual basis, and take pride in educating children about healthy lifestyle choices".
Pia also likes to mix it up at training time. "I agree with Erin Stern's approach to prepping and also include a lot of sprint drills, HIIT, and power and Olympic lifting. One day I hope to make it to the world stage and compete overseas in figure".
Pia also credits part of her success to her partner, and personal trainer, Noel - for helping her with contest preparation.
And with 3 more contests planned for 2014, Pia's going to keep him busy in the coming year.
Oh, and did we mention her new career is as a firefighter? Cool!
