Testimonials

“I have lost 10 cm off my waist, and 13cm of my hips so far! I’m very grateful to Brent for his encouragement and support! I’ve found Brent to be knowledgeable, and calm in demeanor. I’m looking forward to more results with his guidance!” –Nicola

“I’m the fittest I have ever been 4kg lighter and feel great, and like how my body looks now, Brent customizes the workouts to my needs so I’m always excited for the next session!” Nera

“I have worked with Brent for more than 2 years. He is skilled, thoughtful, and a pleasure to work with and talk to. He knows just how and when to encourage and when to push to really challenge me. Highest recommendation.” Kate

“Brent is personable with a measured approach. Importantly, Brent has trained all his life and knows what I am feeling during the exercises he prescribes for me, and in turn scales the workouts to my capabilities. Having worked with other personal trainers, I can say that Brent is one of the best.” Jason

After battling a knee injury and not being able to play netball for over a year, I have worked hard on rehabilitating my knee so that I am able to compete at a top level again starting December 2015. I have been seeing a Personal Trainer not only to help with my rehab, but also to motivate me through a variety of different sessions. With my trainer I have seen great improvements to my cardio fitness and an increase in my strength – something I didn’t think was possible. 

Combined with my PT sessions and working at Exodus for over 5 years, I now have a great knowledge of exercise and how it can benefit my lifestyle.

Give me a call to find out how exercising can benefit your lifestyle too.

Tiffany wasn’t always a “gym person” but this was in large part due to not having any clue about what to do in the gym!

Now she trains up to 5x a week and she loves weights training! She has been seeing a Personal Trainer for the last 8 months to achieve her goals of being able to do 10 pull ups, increase the size of her upper body and develop her glutes. Safe to say she is just about there and very happy with the results so far and will soon need new goals to achieve!

Whatever your reason for getting fit, Tiffany can help guide you in the right direction to making your fitness goals a reality!

FREE Fitness Programmes

Make the most of your training and see one of our Fitness Consultants for a FREE fitness programme included with all memberships!

How do I get started?
Book yourself at Reception for an initial consultation which takes between 20-30min located upstairs in a private assessment room. We take your measurements, including blood pressure, and find out more about your exercise history and goals! From here, we can book you back in to see us to take you through your personalized programme which can take up to an hour. Please allow at least 2 days for us to write up your programme.

How is this different to a Personal Training session?
A Personal Trainer takes you on a 1-on-1 session which may include more technical exercises such as deadlifts, squats, box jumps etc. Working with a PT also means you are able to get instant feedback right away, plus may include help with nutrition and more advanced training including rehab.

Our Fitness Consultants on the other hand take you through your programme to show you the exercises (more suited to beginners) and you follow the routine for 6-8 weeks on your own.

How often can I book in for a programme?
We encourage you to book yourself in for a Review to track your progress and to change up your routine every 6-8 weeks. However at any time, if you would like us to show you how to use a piece of equipment, or be shown a new exercise, feel free to grab us on the gym floor (if available) or book in for a quick programme at reception. For more technical exercises we recommend that you contact a Personal Trainer.

Talk to one of our friendly Fitness Consultants to get your Fitness Programme started.
