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.

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 Melbourne CBD runs for 45 minutes. Your program starts with a conversation and a baseline, not a template.

  1. 1

    Chat

    Your goal, training history, injuries and the days you can train.

  2. 2

    Baseline

    Your starting weight and how you move through the basics.

  3. 3

    Plan

    A written program with weekly workouts and simple nutrition targets.

  4. 4

    Review

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

Your first session

We talk through your goals, your week, any injuries and any advice from your GP or physio. Then we take you through a short, manageable workout, so you leave confident rather than sore. Your first session is free.

A routine that fits a CBD work day

We build each week around the days you can train, so your sessions fit your calendar rather than the other way around. Short blocks of high-intensity interval training come in once your base is solid.

Nutrition and habits between sessions

We set simple nutrition targets for your goal and use regular check-ins to see how you’re going. 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 Melbourne Cbd

Personal trainer Melbourne Cbd 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?

A single session is $100 for 45 minutes. Costs scale in whole sessions, so you can match your spend to your goal:

  • $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 Conditioning Programs

Most programs we write are built on strength, because it supports almost every goal.

One-on-one strength and resistance training

Strength training builds muscle you can feel in daily life, and we coach each exercise until your technique holds up under load.

A nutrition and weight loss program you can stick to

If you want to lose weight, we pair your sessions with simple nutrition targets and look at trends rather than single weigh-ins. Body composition changes more slowly than the scales, so we keep the focus on steady progress.

Intervals and mobility

Short blocks of high-intensity interval training suit time-poor clients once a base is built, and mobility work keeps your hips and shoulders moving well. With progressive overload, we add load in small steps and only when your technique stays solid.

Strength training

Coached technique, loaded in small steps.

Weight loss

Training plus simple nutrition targets you can keep.

Mobility

Hips, shoulders and upper back that move freely.

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.

Strength, mobility and confidence

Female trainer coaching is available if you’d feel more comfortable training that way. We focus on strength, mobility and confidence rather than a generic routine, and we train women through postnatal recovery and perimenopause.

NDIS personal trainers in Melbourne CBD

We coach National Disability Insurance Scheme participants. Each session is adapted to your ability, with clear instructions, and you’re welcome to bring a support worker or carer. Read more about our NDIS personal training.

Small group sessions

Small groups suit colleagues or friends who want to train together, or anyone who turns up more reliably when others are counting on them.
