Despite regular exercise previously, I achieved a 6.5kg weight loss through Armstrong’s 6-week program. His extensive knowledge and attentive approach created a personalized program perfectly suited to my goals. The dietary recommendations were practical and easy to follow.

Where do I start with this amazing woman! Talya is a trainer like no other. I finally found someone who understands me, my fitness needs, and listens to my goals. After 6 months, I’m loving the results and our sessions are both fun and challenging.

★★★★★
Armstrong’s expertise in connecting mind and body has been invaluable. He helped me understand if I was working the right muscle groups and performing exercises correctly. His knowledge extends beyond general fitness to include posture, alignment, and meditation practices.

Registration with Exercise & Sports Science Australia shows a practitioner meets standards recognised across the fitness industry, including ongoing education.

Female and male clients are both welcome

Female and male clients both get personalised coaching matched to their needs at Australian Fitness Network.

Personal trainer or gym instructor?

A gym instructor usually inducts you into a club and keeps an eye on the floor. A class follows one plan for everyone. A personal trainer writes your program, watches your technique and changes it as you improve.

Session formats

One-on-One, One-on-Two or Small Group Sessions

We run personal training sessions in a one-on-one, one-on-two or small group setting, so you choose how much attention and company you want.

Which session format suits you?

  • One-on-one: full attention, and the level is set entirely by you.
  • One-on-two: train with a partner or friend and split the coaching.
  • Small group: group personal training with a few people at similar levels.

What does a training session include?

Every training session starts with a warm-up, then your main exercises, then a cool-down. We bring the equipment, adjust the plan to how you feel that day, and keep it personalised.

Your first weeks

Your First Weeks: Screening, Goals and Momentum

We like you to build momentum before the first session. Work through the nutrition guides, practise food tracking, lift your daily step count, and begin the training program as soon as you can.

What do new clients usually worry about?

Most people want steady progress, such as keeping gradual weight loss while adding muscle. The usual worries are staying on track with food during busy stretches, hitting protein targets, and training around shift work. We build a plan that bends around your roster so you can achieve consistency, improve your energy and keep going.

What happens before and during your first session?

Your first session opens with a pre-exercise screening, then we talk through your goal and any injuries.

  • Health history and current activity
  • A body composition analysis for a starting point
  • Photos to track progress, taken only if you want them

Programs

Programs for Strength, Cardio and Everyday Movement

We program each style around your goal and adjust as you progress.

Strength training that builds muscle

Strength training with resistance training builds muscle, supports healthy body weight and helps you tone up.

Progressive overload without rushing

We use progressive overload, adding load or repetitions only when your last session felt controlled.

Barbell and kettlebell work done properly

Barbell and kettlebell lifts such as squats, deadlifts and swings are taught with technique first.

Cardio, intervals and circuits

Cardio and aerobic exercise build your engine. Circuit training makes a full-body workout, and we can run a workout outdoors when it suits.

High-intensity interval training scaled to your level

High-intensity interval training is scaled to your level, with rest periods set by your recovery.

Posture, functional training and injury rehabilitation

Functional training uses movements like carrying, pushing and stepping, and we work with your physio on injury rehabilitation where needed.

Improving spinal posture at a desk or on the tools

For better spinal posture, we strengthen your upper back and hips so a long day sitting or working on the tools hurts less.

Local to you

Training Across Bendigo, Calder Highway to Golden Square

Which Bendigo suburbs do clients travel from?

Clients reach us from across the City of Greater Bendigo. Many come in along the Calder Highway from Kangaroo Flat, while others head in from Golden Square. Free parking and an easy drive make regular visits simple.

Checking Bendigo’s monthly climate before you commit to outdoor sessions

If you’re weighing up outdoor training anywhere in the Bendigo region, the Bureau of Meteorology site is the place to check the numbers. It publishes monthly climate statistics for the Bendigo Airport station (081123) and the Bendigo Prison station (081003). The airport is listed as the nearest alternative site to the prison, 4.2 km away, so check both before deciding how much of your training you want outdoors.

Ask us how we move or reschedule a session when the weather turns, and what indoor options we can offer. If you’re considering a public space such as a park or reserve, confirm first that a council permit or licence is in place for it.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How much should you spend on a personal trainer?

One-on-one gives you full attention, one-on-two lets you train with a partner or friend and split the coaching, and a small group puts a few people at similar levels together.
