How sessions work
How We Plan Your Training Program
Every personal training session in West Melbourne runs for 45 minutes. Your goal decides the plan, so we set the target first and then choose training days, exercises and check-ins to suit it.
- 1
Chat
Your goal, training history, injuries and the days you can train.
- 2
Screen
Pre-exercise screening and how you squat, hinge, push and pull.
- 3
Plan
A written program with starting loads and weekly targets.
- 4
Review
Regular check-ins, so the plan changes as you do.
Your first session
Your first session is free. We talk through your goals, your week, any injuries or medications and advice from your GP, and complete pre-exercise screening where it applies. Then we set your starting loads and take you through a short, manageable workout, so you leave confident rather than sore.
Momentum before day one
We want momentum to build from the start, so coaching with nutrition targets and check-ins begins as soon as you sign up. Your trainer then contacts you to arrange sessions at a time and place that suits you.
Keeping progress going
Holidays, social events and busy weeks are normal, so we keep the structure steady and adjust the next phase around them. If a result stalls short of your goal, we review your targets and training load and build a plan to move past it. The 6-Week Lean Body Reset ($1,399) combines coaching with nutrition targets and check-ins.
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.

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, Circuit and Interval Training Styles We Use
Every workout we write draws from a small set of proven styles, matched to your goal, your schedule and the equipment you have, so the plan stays effective instead of generic.
Strength and resistance training
Strength training is the backbone of most programs we write. Resistance training with free weights, machines or bands helps you build lean muscle, which keeps your joints supported. Beginners start with simple patterns like squats, pushes and pulls, then add load gradually.
Circuit training and intervals for weight loss
If you want to lose body fat, circuit training keeps your heart rate up as you move between stations. High-intensity interval training alternates hard efforts with rest once your base is solid, and we pair it with steady aerobic exercise such as brisk walking or cycling for recovery and heart health. Weight loss also comes down to nutrition, so we set simple nutrition targets. Steady habits there support the result you get from your training.
Functional training for everyday movement
Functional training prepares you for carrying the shopping, climbing stairs and getting up off the floor. It improves overall physical fitness, balance and healthy joint movement, and it suits you if you’re returning to exercise after a break. For athletes, we also offer strength and conditioning for sport.
Strength training
Free weights, machines and bands, 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, private & NDIS training
Female Trainers, Private Sessions and NDIS-Supported Training
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.
Private one-on-one training
Female trainers are available on request, for example Britt and Michaela, so tell us when you enquire. Private sessions give you our full attention, and we adjust exercises, pace and equipment as you go. That suits beginners, people managing an injury and anyone who prefers to train away from a busy gym floor.
NDIS personal trainers
We coach NDIS participants, with each session adapted to your ability, clear instructions and extra time where you need it. You’re welcome to bring a support worker or carer. Read more about our NDIS personal training.
Small-group sessions
Small-group and 1-on-1 personal training in Melbourne can sit side by side. A small group lets you share the energy and the workload while still getting coaching on your form, and it suits friends or partners who keep each other turning up.
Before you book
What to Check When Choosing a Personal Trainer in West Melbourne
Whoever you book with, a few quick checks will tell you whether a certified expert has the qualifications, cover and setup to train you where you want to train.
Questions worth asking
- Do you hold a Certificate III or IV in Fitness at the Australian Qualifications Framework level, issued by a registered training organisation?
- Are you a member of Exercise & Sports Science Australia or another industry body?
- Is your CPR certification current under Australian Resuscitation Council guidelines?
- Do you hold a Working With Children Check if you train under-18s?
Pre-exercise screening comes first
Good trainers ask about your health history, medications and old injuries before the first session, because a sore knee or a blood pressure reading changes how an exercise is loaded. Pre-exercise screening takes a few minutes. When something needs a GP’s input, a good coach pauses and sorts that out before training starts, and treats health promotion as part of the job.

With us, sessions are $100 for 45 minutes, with no lock-in contract, and your first session is free. For a structured start, the 6-Week Lean Body Reset is $1,399 and combines coaching with nutrition targets and check-ins.
Is a personal trainer covered by Medicare?
No, Medicare doesn't generally rebate personal training. If you're an NDIS participant, you may be able to use your funding for supported sessions, depending on your plan and how it's managed. Check with your plan manager or GP, and bring your plan details when you enquire.
Where do you train clients in West Melbourne?
We train clients at their home, outdoors, or in one of the network's gyms, so you can pick whatever suits your routine. Our mobile trainers bring the equipment, so you don't need a gym membership or much space. We'll talk through the best setting in your free first session. See how home sessions work on our mobile personal trainer page.
What happens in my first session?
Your first session is free and runs for 45 minutes. We chat about your goals and health, check how you move, then take you through a short, manageable workout. Bring water, a towel, comfortable activewear and details of any injuries or advice from your GP.
Can I book a female personal trainer in West Melbourne?
Yes. Female trainers are available on request, for example Britt and Michaela. Mention it when you enquire.
Should I choose one-on-one, small-group or semi-private sessions?
One-on-one sessions suit you if you want technique coached live and our full attention. Semi-private and small-group sessions add company and energy, but you get less individual attention, so they work best once your technique is solid. Online-only programs can suit self-motivated people, but we coach in person at your home, outdoors or in the network's gyms.
