Network magazine & resource archive

Historical archive, restored 17 October 2026.

Australian Fitness Network was launched in 1987 as the Fitness Leader Network by Nigel Champion, Greg Hurst and Dr Garry Egger, and became Australian Fitness Network in 1999. For more than three decades it published Network magazine, which many in the industry called the bible for fitness leaders, alongside specialist newsletters, member handouts and the FILEX convention programme.

This archive brings back 597 documents from that collection, grouped by publication. Every file is a PDF and opens in a new tab. The documents are historical: prices, contacts, course details and offers belong to the time they were published.

The people behind Network magazine

Network was edited over the years by Lyn, Jan, Justine, Analee Matthews and, from the late 2000s to the final issue in December 2021, Oliver Kitchingman. Jack Lee of Novu Creative designed each issue for around 15 years. Regular contributors included Dr Mike Climstein (Research Reviews), Lisa Westlake, Susie Burrell, Tony Boutagy, Andrew May, Justin Tamsett and many more of Australia’s leading presenters and educators.
