Over the past year, training with Anthony and the Australian Fitness Network team has been transformative. Each session is carefully tailored to my individual needs with clear focus on reaching my goals. I’ve seen significant improvements in my general fitness and strength while feeling more energised and confident.

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 personalised program perfectly suited to my goals. The dietary recommendations were practical and easy to follow.

Armstrong took time to understand my fitness goals and asked insightful questions. His ability to shift my mindset from just weight loss to overall health and strength made all the difference. The personalised approach helped me achieve sustainable long-term results.

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.
Sharnese ThomsonClient review
★★★★★
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.

Get in touch and we'll arrange a time to talk through where you are now and where you'd like to be.

Ways to train

Services: Private Sessions and Fitness Classes

Australian Fitness Network services cover one-on-one coaching and small group formats, all run from our studio. Our studio is a fully equipped gym with free weights, benches, resistance bands and cardio machines, so you have everything you need in any format. You can mix formats as your routine changes.

One-on-One Private SessionsYour coach's full attention for 45 minutes.
Small Group Fitness ClassesSmall numbers, so you still get hands-on correction.
Circuit TrainingStations worked at your own level.
BarrePosture and controlled, low-impact strength.
High-Intensity Interval TrainingHard efforts alternated with recovery.

One-on-One Private Sessions

A private session gives you our full attention for 45 minutes. Your coach adjusts exercises, pace and technique as you go, which suits beginners, people with limited time and anyone who prefers to train without an audience.

Your personal trainer also keeps track of what you did last time, so every session builds on the one before.

Group Fitness and Circuit Training Classes

Our group fitness classes keep numbers small, so you still get hands-on correction. Circuit training moves you through stations at your own level. Barre focuses on posture and controlled, low-impact strength. High-intensity interval training alternates hard efforts with recovery.

If you'd like regular classes, ask us about a membership and we'll set it up around the days you can attend.

How we train

Strength, Functional and Cardio Training

Every workout we run combines three elements: strength training, functional training and cardio. Strength work builds the muscle and joint support you rely on every day. Functional movements such as squatting, carrying and pushing transfer that strength to everyday life, and cardio builds the stamina to keep you going.

  • KettlebellsKettlebell training for hips, grip and conditioning
  • TRXSuspension training for core control and bodyweight pulling
  • ResistanceDumbbells, barbells and bands for resistance training
  • CardioRowers and bikes for steady or interval cardio

How Do You Build Strength Safely?

You build strength safely by raising the load in small steps while keeping technique clean. Good resistance training also makes everyday life easier, from lifting groceries to chasing the kids.

Progressive Overload and One-Repetition Maximum Testing

We apply progressive overload by adding a little weight or a few repetitions as an exercise gets easier. Where it suits you, we estimate your one-repetition maximum from lighter sets, so we can measure your strength gains without you grinding through a risky heavy lift.

Pacing Each Workout to How You Feel

Using Rating of Perceived Exertion to Pace Your Workout

With the rating of perceived exertion, you score each set from easy to maximal effort. That lets us adjust the day's workout to your sleep, stress and fitness level instead of following a fixed script.

1–3Easy

Warm-up and technique sets.

4–7Working

Most of your training sits here.

8–10Hard to maximal

Used sparingly, on good days.

Your plan

Customised Workout Plans Tailored to Your Needs

We build customised workout plans around you, because a personalised training program works better than a generic one. Your plan starts from your fitness goal, your history and how your body moves.

Weight Loss, Body Composition and Nutrition

For weight loss, we look beyond the scale. Changes in muscle and fat show up in body composition long before the number moves, so we track both.

We give practical nutrition guidance you can stick to, covering meal structure, protein and portions. For medical needs, we suggest you see your GP or a dietitian. Lasting results come from steady training, sensible eating and regular check-ins.

What Happens in Your First Session?

Your first session is a conversation and an assessment before any hard work begins.

  1. 1
    TalkWe talk through your fitness goal, schedule and any health concerns.
  2. 2
    CheckWe check your posture, movement and current fitness level with simple tests.

Injury and sport

Injury Rehabilitation and Sports Performance

If you play sport around Belmont, whether that's netball, football or running with a local club, we train around what your body can currently do and build towards what your season demands. Every athlete we work with gets performance goals tied to their position, schedule and recovery time.

Returning to Training After a Sports Injury

A sports injury rarely needs complete rest. We load the surrounding areas, restore range of movement and increase demand gradually.

We often see people return too fast because the pain has eased, so we pace progress by how the joint or muscle responds, not the calendar.

Working With Your Health Team

Working Alongside Your GP or Physiotherapist

We're not a replacement for medical care. If you have a diagnosed injury, we work from your GP's or physiotherapist's advice, and we follow guidance from Sports Medicine Australia on safe return to activity. This keeps your rehabilitation consistent with your overall health plan.

Meet your trainer

Who Are Your Trainers? Female and Male Coaching

Our trainers hold recognised qualifications, and we work with accredited professionals registered through Exercise & Sports Science Australia. Each coach holds a current first aid certificate and a Working With Children Check.

If you'd prefer a female trainer, tell us when you enquire and we'll match you. Our women's health focus covers pre- and postnatal training and pelvic floor awareness. Every client receives the same careful coaching, and we've noticed people stay more consistent when they feel comfortable with who's training them.

Ethan, personal trainer Belmont

Ethan

Belmont · Geelong

Ethan is your Belmont personal trainer. He coaches every session one-to-one in our studio, or travels to you around Belmont, Highton and Grovedale.

We Start by Listening

Whichever trainer you work with, we start by listening. We ask about your goals, your training history, any injuries and how much time you can realistically give each week. That conversation shapes the program, the exercises we choose and the equipment we use.

How We Match You With a Coach

A good match matters because training is a regular commitment. Here's what we look at when pairing you with a coach:

  • Your goal, such as strength, weight loss, mobility or returning from injury
  • Whether you prefer a female or male trainer
  • Your preferred days and times
  • Whether you'd like private or group sessions
