I’ve been training with Australian Fitness Network for 10 weeks and couldn’t be happier! Started at 84kg and now I’m down to 76kg. My fitness has improved dramatically and I feel so much stronger overall.

★★★★★
As someone who never exercised before, I was nervous. But Kevin has been incredibly patient and understanding. I went from not being able to do a single push-up to doing 12-15 easily!

Our personal training is practical and paced to your level. We've seen that people get the best results when the plan matches their real week, not an ideal one.

Personal Trainer Surry Hills, Sydney: Private, Small Group and Mobile Training

Four formats, each coached to your goal, budget and training style by your Surry Hills trainer.

Anthony, personal trainer Surry Hills

Anthony

Triathlete · 5 languages

Races triathlons and speaks five languages. Focused, organised and fully on you for 45 minutes. Book in and he handles the rest.

Private One-on-One Sessions

Private sessions give you our full attention. We adjust each exercise to your body and your level. If you'd prefer a female coach, ask when you enquire.

Small Group Training

Small group training suits friends, partners or a work team who want to train together. Groups stay small enough for us to correct technique.

Mobile Personal Training at Home, Work or the Park

Our mobile personal training service brings coaching to your home, park or workplace. We can train in your living room, an office meeting space or a quiet street-side patch of green. It works well if your schedule has little flexibility.

Boxing and HIIT Conditioning

Boxing and high-intensity interval training (HIIT) build aerobic capacity and coordination. Each workout alternates hard efforts with short recoveries, scaled to your fitness. Gyms often run these as crowded classes, whereas we tailor the pace.

Outdoor sessions

Training Outdoors at Prince Alfred Park in Surry Hills

When the weather suits, we can run a session at Prince Alfred Park, which sits between Chalmers and Cleveland streets and Central railway station. It is listed at 7.5 hectares, so there is plenty of space for a full session.

Outdoor training suits runs, sled-free conditioning circuits and bodyweight strength work, and it gives you a change of scene from an indoor session. If the weather turns, we will let you know and move the session to another location we have agreed with you, so your training time is not lost.

Council Fees and Permits

The City of Sydney says it doesn't impose fees on trainers running fitness or wellness classes in its parks and reserves, so council fees don't add to your session on any day we train there. Other agencies may require fees and permits in some areas, such as the Royal Botanic Garden and The Domain, so we don't assume the same access rules apply there.

How it works

How Your Training Program Is Built

Every program follows the same three steps, so nothing is guesswork. You get expert coaching from week one.

  1. 1

    First Consultation and Pre-Exercise Screening

    Your consultation covers pre-exercise screening, then we build a personalised plan around your health history, how you move, your weekly availability and the training location that suits you.

  2. 2

    Goal Setting and Early Momentum

    We agree on one clear goal and a structured six-week block, then run face-to-face sessions alongside online coaching. Early momentum helps results stick, so we get you walking more straight away. You can also train with a friend or family member in a small group session.

  3. 3

    Strength, Conditioning and Progressive Overload

    Strength training is the backbone. Resistance training built on the squat, the deadlift and kettlebell training develops the base, and functional training keeps it useful outside the session. We test or estimate your one-repetition maximum, then apply progressive overload: more load or volume as you adapt. Lower-body and upper-body days alternate.

What Your First Meeting Covers

  • Your health history, past injuries and medications
  • A movement check, so we can see how you squat, hinge, push and pull
  • Your weekly availability, so sessions fit around work and family
  • The training location that suits you: park, home or workplace

A Typical 45-Minute Session

  • A short warm-up and mobility block
  • One or two main strength lifts, loaded according to your progress
  • Accessory and conditioning work for fitness and stamina
  • A cool-down and a note on what to focus on next

$100 per 45-Minute Session

Flexible

Pay Per Session, Not a Gym Membership

A gym membership asks you to pay every week, whether you turn up or not. With us, you choose how many sessions suit your week, which makes this a flexible, low-commitment option if you want something cheap on risk, not on quality. Gyms rarely give you a coach for the session; we do.

  • Start with a single session as a trial, then decide
  • Request a time that fits your work and travel
  • Cancellation is simple: tell us before your session and we'll rebook you

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a personal trainer typically cost in Sydney?

Our Surry Hills rate is $100 per 45-minute session, though rates across Sydney depend on the trainer, the location and the session format. Our price stays the same whether you train one-on-one in the park or at another agreed location.

Expect to pay per session, and with Australian Fitness Network that is $100 for 45 minutes. A block of three sessions at $100 comes to $300. Paying session by session makes it easy to see what you're getting for your money.

Is $400 a month a lot for a personal trainer?

No, $400 a month is a reasonable amount for steady progress. At $100 per 45-minute session, it covers four sessions. Whether that suits you depends on your goals, since some people want weekly accountability and others train more often.
