OUR PERSONAL TRAINERS OFFER A FIRST CLASS PROFESSIONAL SERVICE

Our Trainers have obtained recognised certification from professional bodies regarding exercise prescription, functional anatomy, fitness testing and training principles and are all registered with Fitness Australia. Whether you are training for a sport, a challenging outdoor activity or aiming to reach a special goal, the time spent with your personal trainer will provide you with a game plan for success.

Save time by having a thorough workout pre planned by your trainer and on those “flat” tiresome days, your personal trainer will be there to push and motivate you. Our trainers can help you obtain your goals and maintain motivation.

We plan and execute nutrition strategies, workouts and provide attention over specific problems such as obesity and injuries.

                                  Kurt Garnett
                                  St Kilda

                                  Kurt has been fascinated by the relationship between the mind and body from an early age, and found training as a medium to dive deeper into understanding both. Training as a boxer from a young age got him addicted to the lifestyle and discipline associated with training and pushing new physical boundaries.  

                                  Kurt has years of experience in different styles of training, ranging from building muscle to losing body fat. Kurt uses the basic and most affective training tools and principles and marries them with boxing fundamentals to help clients reach their goal more effectively and efficiently.

                                  If you’re looking to get stronger, build muscle or lose weight, look no further!
