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

Private One-on-One Sessions: Structure and Support

Every personal training session in Mount Waverley runs for 45 minutes and follows a plan, and everything you lift is written down.

  1. 1

    Warm-up

    Raises your heart rate and loosens the joints you’re about to use.

  2. 2

    Main block

    Your lifts, coached rep by rep.

  3. 3

    Conditioning

    Cardio or intervals matched to your level.

  4. 4

    Cool-down

    A stretch and a quick note on what to repeat next time.

Tracking every lift

During hard sets we ask for your rating of perceived exertion, a simple 1–10 score for how tough a set felt, and adjust the load on the spot. We estimate your one-repetition maximum from lighter sets rather than testing a true max, then apply progressive overload. Seeing last week’s numbers next to this week’s does more for motivation than any pep talk.

Setting up your first fortnight

Your first two weeks are about finding your starting level, not testing you to exhaustion. We agree on one clear goal, check how your body moves and set loads you can repeat. The best early result is a routine you can keep.

What does the $100 session include?

A trainer who plans your session, coaches every rep and logs your lifts, with full attention for all 45 minutes. Your first session is free, so you can see how we work before you pay a cent.

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 Trainer Price: What a Session Costs

Personal trainer Mount Waverley pricing is simple: $100 per 45-minute session. We don’t pitch it as cheap training; it’s one-on-one coaching, with the programming and accountability that come with it.

Single session

$100 / 45 min

What your budget covers

  • $300 covers three sessions
  • $400 covers four sessions
  • Pay per session, with no lock-in contract
  • NDIS participants: ask how your plan applies before you book

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

How Often to Train and When Results Show

Two to three sessions a week gives each muscle group time to recover and keeps the habit steady. Between sessions, we set a daily step target and a protein and calorie figure matched to your body and goal. Weight management rarely moves in a straight line: a steady loss of around half a kilo a week is normal and tends to last, so we also track body composition, your lifts and how your clothes fit.

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, Cardio and Functional Programs

Every program starts from your goal and current fitness, then draws on four types of training, mixed as your history allows.

Strength and resistance training

Strength training builds muscle that carries over to everyday movement. We use barbells, dumbbells and free weights, increasing the load as your technique settles. A typical strength day might include a shoulder press, bench or floor press, bent-over rows, goblet squats and deadlifts.

Cardio, intervals and aerobic exercise

Steady cardio such as brisk or incline walking builds your base and is easy on the joints. Once you’re ready, high-intensity interval training adds short, hard efforts with recovery in between.

Functional and kettlebell training

Functional training works the movements you use every day: lifting, carrying, pushing and getting up off the floor. Kettlebell swings and carries add a challenge to your balance and grip.

Fat-loss and lean-build phases

For weight management, we often start with a four-week block pairing cardio with weights, then progress to fat-loss weights and a lean-build phase. That sequence helps you reach your goal at a steady pace.

Strength training

Compound lifts for stronger legs, back and posture.

Cardio & HIIT

Build your base, then add intervals.

Kettlebells

Swings and carries for balance and grip.

Functional training

Lift, carry and get up off the floor with ease.

Choosing a format

Pilates, Reformer or Group Fitness Class: Which Format Suits You?

Each format suits a different goal, and there’s no wrong answer if it keeps you moving.

Pilates and reformer

A Pilates mat session builds control and core stability. A reformer studio adds spring resistance and guided movement.

Group fitness classes

A class gives you energy, a timetable and company, with the instructor’s attention shared across the room. It suits you if you like routine and your health and movement are already steady.

When one-on-one coaching fits better

Choose one-on-one coaching when you have a specific goal, such as strength for a sport, a return to training after a break or support around an old injury. We set the load and exercises to your level and adjust each lift as you go.

Before you book

Training in Monash Parks: What a Trainer’s Permit Requires

The City of Monash requires personal trainers and group fitness operators who use council land to hold a permit to operate on council or Crown land.

If you’re picturing a session at Jells Park or another local reserve, that requirement applies to the trainer running it. Before we suggest an outdoor session, we confirm the permit position for that location.

Questions worth asking any trainer

  • Which qualifications and registration do you hold?
  • Do you hold a council permit for outdoor sessions?
  • Is my program written for me?
  • How will you track my progress?

Expect to pay per session; here that’s $100 for 45 minutes. Two to three sessions a week works well for most goals, and $300 covers three sessions.
