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.

★★★★★
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.

Common worries before starting personal training

Personal trainer Chadstone client before and after weight lossBeforeAfter

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

It’s hard to keep going when your week gets turned upside down. We’ll help you adjust your plan on busy weeks and get back into it after a break. You won’t have to work out your next step alone.

Personal training in Chadstone

Looking for a Personal Trainer in Chadstone?

We build every 1-on-1 personal training session around you. Whether you live in Melbourne's south-east or travel in from further out, you get a plan, technique coaching and the support and accountability that turn a fitness goal into something you actually achieve.

Your 45-minute sessions are run by a certified trainer who adjusts the work to your body, not a template. Many clients come to us after trying 1-on-1 personal training in Burwood or another nearby suburb, and what they missed was someone paying attention to every rep. Small corrections in your first few weeks save months of frustration later.

Who we train

We train people at every fitness level, from first-timers to those returning after a break. Your lifestyle sets the schedule, and your sport or health needs shape the exercises. Women, shift workers, parents and weekend athletes all train one-on-one with us, not in a crowd.

  • $100Per 45-minute session. One trainer, fully focused on you.
  • M / FMale and female trainers. Choose who you feel comfortable with.
  • Our Chadstone gym. Barbells, dumbbells, cables and bands ready for you.
  • Strength, cardio and nutrition. One written plan that ties it together.
  • No lock-in contract. Pay per session.

Small-group and semi-private training

  • Semi-private: suits two or three people with similar goals who still want close coaching.

How sessions work

How Your 45-Minute Sessions and Program Work

Every session at our Chadstone gym follows a written plan, so you always know which exercise comes next and why. Training starts straight away, and your program is a guide, not a fixed finish date.

  1. 1

    Warm-up

    Prepares your joints and muscles for the main lifts.

  2. 2

    Main lifts

    Coached set by set, with the equipment chosen for the day.

  3. 3

    Conditioning

    A finisher that lifts your heart rate and fitness.

  4. 4

    Review

    A quick recap and your plan until the next session.

Before Session One: Food and Protein

Before you start, you track what you eat and read our nutrition and protein guides, so you arrive with some practice. Once sessions begin, we review your tracking. If your protein is low, raising it helps you lose fat and recover faster, so it's often your first step towards your goal.

How a Typical Week Is Built

We generally recommend two strength training sessions and two cardio sessions a week, plus daily steps and steady nutrition. Resistance training builds muscle, while aerobic exercise supports your heart and work capacity. Some weeks add high-intensity interval training or functional training for sport performance, with recovery scheduled so every hard day pays off.

Progressing Safely, Technique First

We teach technique before adding load. Your squat gets a pattern check before we chase a heavier bar, and we only estimate a one-repetition maximum once your form holds up. Progressive overload then adds weight or reps in small steps, so every challenge is one you can handle.

Your week

Strength and Cardio: Your Weekly Rhythm

A balanced week keeps you progressing without burning out.

  • Strength training days focus on compound lifts and steady progress.
  • Cardio days mix easy aerobic work with harder intervals.
  • Rest days protect your joints and keep you consistent.

Your six weeks of scheduled sessions usually wrap up within a week either side, depending on your calendar.

Who Gets the Best Value From 1-on-1 Sessions

Private sessions pay off when you want a coach who suits your style and you're ready to organise your week around the routine. You'll get the best value if you want support and accountability from one person who knows your plan.

Many clients book two sessions a week. Others combine one session with us with their own training, checking in every couple of weeks.

Choosing a format

Private Training or Group Classes?

Chadstone offers instructor-led group classes for beginners and experienced participants, so it helps to know which format matches how you like to train.

Best Fit for Private Personal Training

Best for you if you want one coach and one plan: private sessions give you full attention on your technique. They suit you if you've tried a couple of coaches and want an approach that finally clicks.

When a Group or Studio Suits You Better

If budget is your main limit, a group class or studio can cover some of your strength work, while fewer private sessions handle technique and planning.

Qualifications and trust

What to Check Before You Book a Trainer

Before you book any trainer, ask what they hold and what they've been checked for.

Registration with Exercise & Sports Science Australia is the industry marker to look for in exercise professionals. If you're managing an injury or long-term health condition, exercise physiology is a separate clinical discipline, and we work alongside it, not instead of it. National Disability Insurance Scheme clients can ask how strength work could fit with the supports already in their plan.

Read our reviews to see how clients describe training with us.

Look For:

  • A current first aid and CPR certificate
  • Public liability insurance
  • A nationally recognised fitness qualification
  • A Working With Children Check if a young person is training
