  Client testimonials

  “There are so many PT's around these days but Greg truly stood out - he is experienced and his approach was completely unique. I am forever grateful for the results I have achieved thanks to working with him!”

  “I honestly believe Greg is one of the best personal trainers out there... Truly, Greg is amazing and I've tried a lot of other trainers who don't come close to him. Honestly, try a session with Greg and you'll notice the difference from the get go. I highly recommend Greg Kafalian. I can't praise him enough”

  “Gregs understanding of the body and his clients enables him to bring the best out of me. He's helped me physically and mentally through major injuries and I'm now the happiest I've been with myself as a result of training with him.”

  “Jordan offers much more than I anticipated from a PT - and I have had a few in the past. His holistic approach to fitness and well-being is multi-faceted, discipline-based and well-practiced.”

  “I have movement that I haven't had for years, I sleep better and have more energy. And my wife gives me funny looks again like when we were courting.”

  “Having not regularly gone to the gym for 25 years, a good PT was essential to reduce the risk of injury at my age. I got lucky when Jordan became my PT. His knowledge about fitness and injury prevention impressed me and has kept me coming back.”

  “Danny came to Ruben V Academy just over half a decade ago! Tired, unhealthy, sick of all the diets and work outs not bringing him any results, and he was about to turn 50! I was his last hope to get those dream abs he had always wanted and the goal was before his 50th birthday - his words, not mine! Danny completed the 12 week transformation with amazing results and went on to compete professionally, and thoroughly enjoyed his transformation experience and process. We are still training together...6 YEARS ON!”

  Client testimonials

  “First off I do not write reviews but in this instance I have made an exception as Natalie has been very impressive and should be recognised for it. I have been going to the gym for sometime however wanted to improve my technique and lift more. I can tell from the first time I spoke with Nat that she was very knowledgable, but the thing that most stood out to me about her was her passion. She has been extremely patient, understanding, encouraging and has taken the time to tailor make a program that has helped me achieve my goals.”

  “I've been training with Natalie for about 3 months and think she is one of the most committed trainers around. She is very supportive and is great at motivating you to achieve your goals. She offers a tailored approach to her programs and continues to alter it as you go. Definitely recommend!”

  “Natalie is an outstanding personal trainer that I can highly recommend to anyone who would like to take a more strategic approach to their fitness, health and well being. Natalie has designed a tailored program for me that was exactly suited to my needs and goals we had established and that has led to excellent results. She is incredibly knowledgable in everything relating to fitness, health, muscles, injuries and nutrition which reflects in the stellar outcomes she achieves. She has done an amazing job to help me address muscle deficiencies following a knee injury I had decades ago which she identified without me even mentioning it! Apart from her skill she is also absolutely pleasant to deal with and a genuine can-do motivator!”

  Client testimonials

  “Excellent studio led by amazing, inspiring trainers. So much more than a personal training gym, a family atmosphere where everyone works together to achieve their goals. Your trainer takes an active interest in you holistically, and helps you achieve your goals, and the group sessions (boxing, core, stretching, running, etc.) are great sessions where all the members help each other succeed.”

  “After what seemed like months of not losing weight, I was ready to give up. But my trainer and the team at Authentic weren't. That made all the difference. Thanks Authentic PT — sometimes it takes a village!”

  “No matter how you look at it, losing 20kg is hard. But the team at Authentic PT makes hard work fun — and that somehow made losing 20kg even easier.”

  Client testimonials

  “Highly recommend Phil Harding! If you want results and you are prepared to put in the hard yards Phil Harding is your man!!! Learnt and changed so much since training with Phil!”

  “Phil helped me reach a goal in 3 months that I didn't believe I could ever achieve. I've been training at the gym my whole life but could never nail the diet component and felt like I was hitting my head against a brick wall. Phil holds you accountable and gets you where you want to be. I thoroughly enjoyed working with him and would recommend him to anyone who wants serious results.”

  “After years and years of busting my arse at the gym and seeing no results I started training with Phil. I saw results immediately. In total I have lost 15 kg and I am now stronger than ever. I never thought I could look the way I do. Not only has he taught me what I need to be doing in the gym to achieve results, he has also taught me about nutrition through simple to follow diet plans and his support. Thanks Phil”

  Client testimonials

  “In the last 12 months, I have lost over 15 kilos of fat, added some serious muscle, got my body fat below 20%, and most importantly, I have more energy to keep up with a 2-year-old and another baby on the way. I'm thrilled that Ben continually assesses and reassesses my goals and measures my progress. I've thoroughly enjoyed our time training together; not only have I smashed my goals, but I've also fallen in love with training again.”

  “I originally signed up for one of Ben's 12-week nutrition courses, which helped me lose a few kilos. Soon after, I started training in person with Ben. Ben has helped me adjust my training and nutrition to get the best results and not be in the gym 12 hours a week like I was. I now have a balanced outlook on how nutrition and fitness should work together to achieve health, fitness, strength, cardio, and mobility goals. Ben has changed my mindset about what my body can do. I highly recommend Ben to anyone looking to get more out of life!”

  “I've been engaged in regular sessions with Ben at the Crows Nest Gym, Naremburn Park, and Tunks Park for the past 5 years, and it's drastically enhanced the quality of my life. Ben has helped me integrate stronger movement patterns with healthier eating habits, resulting in a loss of 23kg, and I'm currently stronger than I've ever been. His expertise has been pivotal in my recovery from shoulder and elbow injuries. Ben skillfully guided me to work around these injuries during their active phases. Thanks to his support, I'm now able to do over 500 pull-ups a day. His knowledge, care, and dedication to walking the talk have made our sessions a staple in my approach to wellbeing.”

  “I started working with Ben to improve my health and lose weight. I work in an office environment full-time and work some nights, so I had my share of challenges. I followed the program, embraced the process and asked Ben for guidance when I needed it. I am 20kg lighter, I feel so much better mentally, and I am now running half marathons intending to do three more half marathons next year. Ben understood my needs, and I am glad we have become good friends from my 12 months working with him. I cannot recommend Ben and this program enough to anyone who has tried to lose weight and failed in the past.”

  Client testimonials

  “I have been training with Peek Fitness for 9 months now and I couldn't have faced entering a gym for the first time without their help. So far I've lost 21kg and feel stronger than ever before. My trainer Tim's role is integral to a novice such as myself. His direction and advice has allowed me to feel more comfortable with using the machines and free weights knowing I am doing it safely. Tim pushes me to accomplish my goals in a supportive way and his training plus the group classes held by Rob have allowed me to make great strides in both weight loss and strengthening.”

  “I believe the most important aspect of the training is clicking with and trusting the personal trainer! During my time at Peek Fitness I was lucky enough to work with three trainers at different stages of my journey and all have excelled in providing me with my very own tailored program. The program suit my goals but also my personality. Each PT adjusted the training to suit my attitude, my strengths & weaknesses & my temperament. Training is not a chore for me; the trainers at Peek have turned it into a weekly affirmation to myself at how far I've come.”

  “I started training with Tim two years ago with the aim to increase my functional strength. I had lost a lot of strength and fitness overall and in particular my core strength was gone which resulted multiple injuries. This was all brought on by having a abdominal complications for which I needed surgery. Tim through knowledge and experience was able to help get my strength back safely and effectively. Before I started training I could end up with significant back pain just getting out of my car and now I can't even remember the last time I had an injury. I would 100% recommend training with these guys.”
