BeforeAfter“I start well, then life gets busy and I stop.”

Personal training in Balwyn
Private One-on-One Personal Training in Balwyn
Looking for a personal trainer in Balwyn? Every session is just you and your coach, with a qualified trainer focused on one client at a time.
In our experience, people need a clear starting point before they need a harder workout. So each session is coached around how your body moves today. We watch, adjust and progress the work as you improve, so you always know what comes next.
We’ve coached more than 1,950 clients over 29 years, from complete beginners to people who are already fit and chasing a new target. We also take your stress and mental health into account, because a hard fortnight changes what a good session looks like.
Why one-on-one beats a crowded gym
A busy gym often means queuing for equipment and training beside strangers. A membership suits some people, but private coaching gives you space and attention without the wait. If you’re comparing options in Balwyn, ask who will actually be watching your technique.

Baseline
Starting weights and measurements, so progress is visible.
What the $100 session includes
Every 45-minute session follows a program built around your goal, with all equipment provided: a warm-up, exercises chosen for you, technique coaching throughout and changes to your next session based on how this one went.
Tracking progress week to week
We log each session and adjust your coaching to what the log shows. We also keep an eye on how your energy and recovery are tracking, not just the weights.
Sleep, food and daily movement
Results depend on what happens between sessions. We give practical nutrition guidance, suggest small lifestyle changes and talk about sleep and daily steps.
Our 6-week program
The 6-Week Lean Body Reset
The 6-Week Lean Body Reset is a $1,399 program built on simple habits.
It includes two training sessions a week with your trainer, the coaching app, nutrition tracking and a set of guides. Your result comes down to how consistently you follow it.
What results can you realistically expect?
Hit 80% of the checklist and you’ll be happy with your result. Fat loss comes from doing the basics week after week, and most people find their energy and training improve too. Tell us your goal early so we can coach you towards it.
What gets in the way?
Work deadlines, school pick-ups and poor sleep are what usually knock people off track. Lock three to four workouts into your calendar before the week starts and they’re much harder to skip.
The weekly checklist
Every client follows the same plan each week:
- Walk 10,000 steps a day.
- Log your food in the app, hit your protein target and stay under your calories.
- Weigh in on Sunday morning and fill in your check-in form.
- Read all the guides in your first week.
- Train at least 4 times a week: your 2 sessions with your trainer plus 2 on your own.

$1,399 / 6 weeks
What does the Lean Body Reset cost?

- Two training sessions each week
- The coaching app and nutrition tracking

Personal Training Compared With a Membership, Class or Online Program
A gym membership gives you access, but you design your own training. A group class offers energy and company, and an online program gives you flexibility without anyone correcting your form. One-on-one sessions give you a coach who watches your technique and adjusts the plan in real time.
Who suits single sessions?
Single sessions suit people who already eat well, or who want one-on-one technique work around a busy diary. If you want nutrition tracking, guides and weekly check-ins as well, the package is the better fit.
Who suits the 6-week package?
The package suits people who want to lose fat with structure: two sessions a week, a clear program and someone checking in on them. If you only want the odd session, go with single sessions.
How we train
Strength, Conditioning, Boxing and Weight Loss Programs
Every program we write starts with your goal, then picks the exercises that will get you there.
Squat and deadlift technique
Strength training is the base for most clients. We coach the squat and deadlift first, then add load in small steps. Progressive overload only works when your form holds, so we’d rather hold back a week than rush a lift.
Movement screening before heavier loads
A functional movement screen shows us tight hips, a stiff upper back or a weaker side before the bar gets heavy, so we can fix them first.
Conditioning, boxing and HIIT
- Boxing: pad work and combinations for fitness, coordination and stress relief
- High-intensity interval training: short, hard efforts with set rests
- AMRAP: as many rounds as possible in a set time, scaled to your level
- Aerobic exercise: steady work that builds your engine and helps recovery
Strength training
Squats, deadlifts and presses, loaded in small steps.
Resistance training
Paired with cardio, so strength and stamina improve together.
Boxing
Pad work for fitness, coordination and stress relief.
HIIT
Short, hard intervals scaled to what you can handle today.
Weight loss & group training
Weight Loss Support and Small Group Training
Lasting weight loss comes from training that builds muscle and eating habits you can keep up, not a harsh diet that falls apart by week three.
Weight loss and nutrition support
For weight management, we combine training with simple nutrition guidance that suits your lifestyle. Where it helps, we draw on sports nutrition principles, such as protein at every meal and fuelling around your sessions, and keep changes small enough to last.
Small groups versus private sessions
- Private: every exercise is adjusted to you.
- Small group: numbers stay low, so your coach still sees every rep, and the company keeps many people turning up.
- Online: if you’re happy following a program on your own, ask about online coaching.
Credentials
Your Trainer’s Credentials
Reviews help, but credentials can be checked. Our trainers hold current CPR certification, and you can confirm a coach’s qualifications before you commit.
Qualifications worth checking
You can check a coach’s registration through Exercise & Sports Science Australia, and fitness qualifications can be searched on training.gov.au, so you can verify any trainer before you book. Our coaching also works around any advice from your GP or physio, and we adjust exercises for injuries and sore spots.
NDIS participants
If you’re a National Disability Insurance Scheme participant, ask us how training might fit your plan and your health goals. We’ll talk through what’s possible before you book. See our NDIS personal training page for more.

Training outdoors at Balwyn Park
Balwyn Park, at 206A Whitehorse Road, has two sportsgrounds (North Oval and South Oval) and an undercover area beside the pavilion. Under the City of Boroondara’s outdoor fitness guidelines, undercover areas around pavilions can only be used when the pavilion isn’t in use, so we plan outdoor sessions around that.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How much should you expect to pay a personal trainer?
With us, a private one-on-one session is $100 for 45 minutes. Your total depends on how many sessions a week you book and how much hands-on guidance you want.
How much do personal trainers normally charge?
Rates vary between trainers and formats. Ours is $100 per 45-minute session, with no lock-in contract, and your first session is free.
Is $400 a month a lot for a personal trainer?
$400 a month covers four sessions at $100 each, or one a week. That suits people who want regular, supervised training and do some of their own workouts in between.
Is the cheapest personal trainer the best value?
Not usually. Cheap sessions that don’t improve your technique or progress rarely save money. The best value is the support you actually need, from a trainer you’ll keep turning up for.
Do I need a gym membership to train with a personal trainer in Balwyn?
No. You can train at home, outdoors or at one of our gyms. When we come to you, we bring the equipment.
Can I book a female personal trainer in Balwyn?
Yes. Mention it when you enquire and we’ll match you with a female trainer such as Britt or Michaela.
