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.

How sessions work

How We Plan Your Training Program

Every personal training session in Eltham runs for 45 minutes. Your program starts with a conversation and a look at how you move, not a template.

  1. 1

    Set up

    Your details go into the coaching app, with your goal and training history.

  2. 2

    Start

    You meet your trainer, talk through your goals and start moving.

  3. 3

    Plan

    A program shaped around your preferences and the days you can train.

  4. 4

    Review

    Regular check-ins, so the plan changes as you do.

Before your first session

We get you set up in the coaching app. You enter your height, age and weight so we can calculate your daily calories and protein, connect Apple Health or Fitbit so we can track your steps, and upload front and back full-body photos so you can see your progress later. You also work through our guides in the first week.

Your first session

Your program officially starts on the day of your first session. We talk through your goals and any injuries, then take you through a comfortable workout, so you leave feeling capable rather than exhausted. Your first session is free.

A routine you can keep

We build your training around your preferences, including how many strength sessions you want each week. Between sessions we check in on your habits, and if your results stall, we adjust the plan rather than push harder.

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.

Pricing

Personal Training Prices in Eltham

Personal trainer Eltham pricing is simple and stated up front, so you can plan your budget before you enquire.

Single session

$100 / 45 min

What do you pay per session?

  • $200 a month covers two sessions
  • $400 a month covers one session a week
  • $800 a month covers two sessions a week
  • Pay per session, with no lock-in contract

Best for fat loss

6-Week Lean Body Reset

$1,399 / 6 weeks

What does the Lean Body Reset cost?

The 6-week program is $1,399. It includes:

  • Two training sessions each week
  • The coaching app and nutrition tracking
  • Guides and the weekly checklist
  • Regular check-ins on steps, protein and weigh-ins

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, Weight Loss and Movement Programs

Strength training is the base of most programs we write, because it supports almost every goal.

One-on-one strength and resistance training

Strength training built on a squat, a hinge, a press and a pull builds muscle and bone and makes daily tasks easier. We teach each lift before we load it, so your technique holds up as the weights go up.

A weight loss program you can stick to

If you want to lose weight, we pair your sessions with simple nutrition targets, so you notice the change in how you move and how much energy you have, not just on the scales.

Movement, mobility and sport

Not everyone wants heavy lifting. Mobility and functional work improve balance, posture and the way you move through a normal day, and athletes get strength and conditioning planned around their sport. With progressive overload, we raise the weight, reps or difficulty in small steps over weeks.

Strength training

Squat, hinge, press and pull, loaded in small steps.

Weight loss

Training plus simple nutrition targets you can keep.

Mobility

Balance, posture and easier everyday movement.

HIIT

Short, hard intervals once your base is ready.

Female & NDIS training

Female Personal Training and NDIS-Supported Sessions

Our sessions suit anyone who wants a coach who listens first. We adjust every program to your health, training history and comfort level, and you progress at your own pace.

Female trainers on request

If you’d prefer a female trainer, tell us when you enquire and we’ll match you with one, such as Britt or Michaela. We build the program around your goals, your health and what feels comfortable.

NDIS personal trainers in Eltham

We coach National Disability Insurance Scheme participants with training shaped around your abilities and support needs. You’re welcome to bring a support worker or carer to your sessions. Read more about our NDIS personal training.

Small group sessions

A small group keeps the energy up and the load shared. It suits friends who want to train together, while private sessions adjust every set to your level.

Before you book

What to Check When Choosing a Personal Trainer in Eltham

Whoever you book with, a few quick checks will tell you whether a trainer is qualified, insured and set up to train you where you want to train.

Questions worth asking

  • Which fitness qualification do you hold, and who issued it?
  • Is your first aid certificate current?
  • Do you hold current public liability insurance?
  • Will you check how I move before the program is written?

Why the assessment matters

A good trainer finds out how you move and what your body can do comfortably before choosing exercises. A stiff hip or sore shoulder picked up early shapes the whole program, so it’s worth asking any trainer how they plan to start.
