Bridges attended high school in Nelson Bay, New South Wales. In an interview with The Sydney Morning Herald, she said "I was 14 when I pitched the idea to my school mistress that I would take the kids at school who didn't play sport, who hung around smoking cigarettes, and do fitness classes with them." She then went on to take over space at a local squash court along with her personal trainer Tash Sheehy and taught classes there. At age 18 she became a certified fitness instructor.
In 2007, Bridges became a trainer on The Biggest Loser. In her first season, she trained the red team alongside Jillian Michaels. She appeared as the red team trainer for every season. In 2016, Bridges announced she was leaving the series.
