Beginner strength training · Coorparoo, Brisbane
You don’t need to be strong to start.
Learn to lift, build muscle and gain confidence in a gym where beginners and experienced lifters train together. Competition is optional.
Start with support that suits you
New to the squat, bench press or deadlift? Tell us what you want to learn and what feels unfamiliar. We’ll help you choose between an individual program, online coaching, booked one-to-one sessions and group training.
An individual plan
Gym membership + a personalised strength program is AUD $66/week, with program updates every 12 weeks. You follow the plan independently; technique feedback is not included. The $33/week gym-access option includes a free template training program.
A coach beside you
Ask about one-to-one coaching if you want a coach to supervise a booked session. Session prices and availability are discussed separately.
Train with a group
Group training is another way to get started with support. Ask which session suits your experience and goals.
