Frustrated and Desperate When Clients Never Listen?
Questi0n:
Hi Mark, I’m a personal trainer based in southwest Sydney. My question is how do you get your clients to improve their compliance on their nutritional plans. I’m noticing clients have a tendency to do well for a couple of weeks and then blow out. This cycle repeats and it’s frustrating because I know how important the nutrition side of things is. What tips could you give to help clients improve their compliance. Thanks in advance. Keep up the great work
– James Huynh
Great question! And so-so many ways I can answer it. I’ll break it down into these three main parts:
Set your goals according to your values
Homeostatic function of the mind
Self sabotage
1. Set your goals according to your values
I did an amazing consult with a young lady. She told me she wanted to compete. Being the curious young cat that I am I asked all kind of questions like:
When did you decide that?
How long has that been a goal?
Why?
What’s your biggest challenge and why has it taken you so long to decide that?
What keeps getting in the way?
I am genuinely curious as to why people want to do anything other than sit and play Watch Dogs on their PlayStation 4. So to me I start by finding out and discovering, who is this person and why aren’t they playing Watch Dogs?!
It became abundantly clear from her answers that her career was of extreme high importance and the thing that was “getting in the way”; was her main inspiration. So in this I teach you a lesson:
“Set your goals according to your values”
At the Louvre in Paris… Man I wish I could speak French!
Don’t set goals that are doomed to fail from the get-go. Example: For me, it’s setting a goal around learning how to speak French. Don’t get me wrong, I would love to be able to speak French, however, I have only been to Paris once and everyone there spoke English so the need for me to dedicate precious, precious time and energy to be able to speak French fluently is not particularly high on my values. Sure, after being in Paris, I wanted to speak French, but my inspiration for actually dedicating my self to learning French- was simply not there. You might even say I need some outside ‘motivation’ to keep me ‘on track’.
However, after holidaying in Europe, I did come back to my gym ‘inspired’ to train and eat super well. You might even say, no one and nothing stopped me from doing twice a day workouts and prepping all my food so I could get my strength and body back after being in Europe as fast as possible. I felt ‘inspired’ from within.
In saying all of this, one key take home point is to help clients align goals to their values. If career is of highest importance, ask, how is training and eating well going to help you in your career and make more money? If they say, no, those two don’t link, you have some work to do. You are not going to change someone’s highest value, but you sure can communicate to them what’s important to you in terms of what’s important to them. Help them create realistic expectations based on their values. If you don’t, you are setting both your clients up for disappointment and yourself up for frustration.
So after she finished talking I said “I don’t think you will make it in thirteen weeks for this comp. What I am hearing is you have a lot on your plate and NOT competing doesn’t make you a bad person either. What happens if we changed your goal to a photo-shoot? Make it a little less stressful?
She smiled with a smile that was like I just released her from a jail of conflicting values… she said “that would be great!”
2. Homeostatic Function of the Mind
Are your clients really off track? Are they really ‘blowing out’? Just a suggestion, they may just achieve the level of results they are content with and feel the need to ‘relax’. Unfortunately for them (and for you) ‘relaxing’ means eating a whole cake, a box of Tim-Tams, Pizza, Starbucks double whipped (low-fat) espresso mocha with reduced fat marshmallows and a bottle of Jack Daniels.
You see, they have been 70 kilos for their entire life. They saw you at their worst, 74 kilos and they felt like crap, they just wanted to be 70 kilos again. They started training with you and got to 65 kilos and now they feel great! You helped them achieve 5 kilos more weight loss than they really wanted! To go further actually scares the pants off them. They will have to buy a whole new wardrobe… Can you imagine?
What will my partner think of me if I lose more weight?
What about my parents? And my friends?!
They will think I am some pseudo-health-nutcase!
Nope, 65 kilos is where I belong. IN FACT! If I see 64kilos on the scales (which they do almost every week) this is actually a sign from God telling me I need to eat a whole cake, a box of Tim-Tams, Pizza, Starbucks double whipped (low-fat) espresso mocha with reduced fat marshmallows and a bottle of Jack Daniels.
Someone’s self image is responsible for this scenario. This one is not all bad, these people are actually often quite happy. Best thing you can do is to ask them, “where would you like to be and what’s holding you back?” Often they say, no, I am quite happy with my weight loss thank you sir. Or, they may say, 60 kilos, but that’s not realistic, or words to that effect meaning, they’re happy just training- and there is nothing wrong with that!
So stop injecting your values of further weight loss as a trainer on to them.
Let them be. They will come to you when they are ready for more. Trust me- I have done this before.
3. Self-Sabotage
This one is quite simple. It’s the person who has linked more drawbacks with achieving their goals than benefits. This is your classic, scared of success persona/don’t know how to deal with success. In short, they’re scared of what life would be like if they did achieve their goal.
I could give you the exact description of how to pick these clients but I won’t do that for numerous reasons. Mostly these guys are really soft-spoken individuals who are a pleasure to be around (at least in my experience).
There’s just that one thing that happened that one time that they’re still holding on to (usually).
Point of advice, refer this one out to Demartini or an NLP consultant if you plan to train them. Things will start getting seriously deep, seriously fast. It’s out of your scope as a trainer. Even for me, I have studied both of these coaching modalities in depth and still refer out to other practitioners because if they are paying me to train them (which they are) I want to focus on the training- not problems or issues with the past.
I have taken many one off consults around self-sabotage and 95% of the time I uncover the issue and then refer out for someone else to deal with it. From my experience, the issues are almost always way-way out of scope for any trainer.
Plus everything I say usually ends with them crying (in a good way).
Most trainers freak out at the sight of tears, personally I get excited because I know tears usually mean that they are on the edge of a breakthrough.
When I see tears I always congratulate them for stepping up and being authentic. Then I suggest, “When would “now” be a good time to let go and move on?” (Embedded suggestion with a slight head nod to confirm now would be a good time).
Please remember, often people think that they need a different approach to nutrition, examples; count your macros, don’t count macros, reverse diet, clean eat, etc. I have been saying the same thing since I started. It’s the relationship you teach your clients to build with the foods they eat that really matters. We train humans not machines. Different things work for different people – not JUST because people are so different bio-chemically, but because people are different.
At the end of the day, most clients (including competitors) have other things in their life that need time, money and energy- not just training. Although, lets face it, training and hard work makes everything in life that much sweeter.

There aren’t enough positive words to explain my experience with Jazz and Enterprise Fitness.
Jazz is approachable and bubbly while also being able to put her foot down firmly with someone like me who doesn’t loveeee exercise and manages to push me to get the desired results without making me resent the process. Every session is fun with Jazz!
Beyond fitness, Jazz has a solid knowledge of nutrition which is supported by all the trainers at Enterprise Fitness. I really appreciate that Jazz takes the time to answer all my questions (lots of them out of hours and most a bit silly) and if she doesn’t know the answer, she will research and come back to me.
I’m very excited to continue my fitness journey with Jazz and to see what we can achieve!
I came to Enterprise wanting help with achieving my physical goals. I had the mindset of - if you tell me what to do, I’ll do it. I didn’t know a lot about nutrition and how to pair that with training but I learnt a lot from K and he made the whole experience really easy to follow.
My experience training with Coach K has been awesome. He is patient, attentive and an excellent coach, he has taught me so much about training and nutrition and I have made more progress towards my fitness & physique goals in 12 weeks with coach K then training for 9 months on my own. If you are looking to change your life for the better then Coach K is your man !
Tom is simply exceptional! In just 6 weeks, he helped me transform my body - reducing belly fat while building shoulder and leg muscle. What sets Tom apart is his comprehensive approach. He corrected my posture, loosened my tight glutes to improve my squat form, and shared valuable knowledge about nutrition and exercise science that I'll use for life. Always cheerful and motivating, he pushed me to reach my potential while making sessions enjoyable. He even offered to "sacrifice himself" by eating my tiramisu just to keep me on track - now that's dedication! If you want a trainer who delivers results and equips you with lasting fitness knowledge, Tom is your best choice.
I’ve been training with Callum for the past six weeks, and it’s been an incredible experience. He is so patient and welcoming, creating a supportive environment that makes every session enjoyable. He knows exactly when to push you and sees the strength in you even when you don’t. I’ve seen so much progress since starting, and I always look forward to my workouts. Highly recommend!
If you want a COMPLETE physical and mental transformation, don’t look anywhere else but Enterprise. You’ll achieve your health and fitness goals and more in this world-class training facility. I have been training here for 10 months and honestly cannot imagine a better gym out there.
I’ve tried over 16 other personal trainers and none of them even come close to comparing to Al, Mark and the Enterprise team; their skills and dedication to your goals is NEXT LEVEL! 🔥
Been training here for a year now, and honestly, it’s one of the best things I’ve done since moving to Melbourne.
I started with zero fitness, basically a stick figure. Jaka pushed me in a good way and helped me build a good base. Jazz is super friendly and never minds my weird questions, whether they're fitness related or not. Shane is fun to train with and super sharp. He is always quick to catch the little things like posture and energy, and adjusts things right away. When they noticed I wasn’t doing so well physically, they instantly adjusted my program to fit my situation. That’s one of the things I like most about this place. They're quick to respond, no matter what the issue is. Bit by bit, I started seeing real changes. Now I’ve actually got some muscle going on.
The vibe and the space are great. Trainers are always working out too, and every time I feel like giving up, just seeing them reminds me why I started in the first place.
Can’t say enough good things about this place. If you’re thinking about joining, just do it :D
I can't rave enough about Lewis Franz my PT. He's taken me from exercise intolerant and scared of the gym, to lifting more than I ever have in 6 short months. Now when my partner throws my little nephew around in whizzy dizzy's and he then turns to me, I can do exactly the same thing with absolute ease. I had no idea just how much building my upper body strength and leg strength would change my world!
On a more human note, Lewis is incredibly well researched, approaching training like a meticulous scientist-practitioner. He lifts, but he also knows how and why to lift. His prepared, intellectual, professionally capable, and emotionally intelligent approach helped me build my trust and get me started from zero. His kick start was exactly what i needed and what no-one I'd ever come across in my gym days could have done. I cannot convey my sheer gratitude, thanks Lewis! And thanks Enterprise!
I hit my lowest body fat percentage in just under three months of training with AL! He is the best trainer I’ve ever had! His nutrition knowledge and training program are excellent—he is highly experienced!
I was trained personally by Mark some years ago. His attention to detail, focus and commitment to me as a client not only gave me great results and got me in great shape for my natural bodybuilding competitions, it also made me feel valued and seen as a person. I know Mark trains all his trainers to work in this way so I would highly reccomend Enterprise Fitness to anyone wanting to get in shape, get results and feel better.
I've been training with coach Kirtanraj for 12 weeks. My situation is complex, suffering ulceric colitis, and I have been able with his guidance lose 6kg and a substantial percentage of bodyfat. He is an incredible coach who was incredibly understanding and patient. I can't recommend him enough for your training requirements.
Coached by Lewis Franz and it has been a great experience, not only has he helped me increase my strength in all major lifts, I’m also feeling more energetic and able to get through my busy days while also moving heaps better on the field and feel like I did at 18!
I don’t typically write reviews, but my experience with Enterprise Fitness has been so outstanding that I just had to share. I’ve been a member since April last year, and the service here has truly exceeded all my expectations. From the welcoming environment to the knowledgeable staff, this place is dedicated to helping you achieve your personal health goals.
I've had the privilege of training with Hugh and K, and they’ve been more than just coaches to me. Each has their own unique style, which keeps me motivated and engaged in my workouts. They constantly push me beyond what I would do on my own, and I’ve gained so much knowledge over the past year, especially when it comes to optimizing muscle growth and nutrition.
I highly recommend Enterprise Fitness to anyone out there who is serious about achieving their personal health goals. It's been a fantastic experience, and I’m confident others will feel the same
Exceptional Personal Trainer – Duncan is Simply the Best!
Training with Duncan has been an absolute game-changer for me! He is not just a personal trainer—he is a coach, a mentor, and a constant source of motivation. From the very first session, it was clear that he genuinely cares about his clients’ progress and well-being. His ability to push me beyond what I thought I was capable of, while always ensuring proper form and technique, has helped me achieve results I never imagined possible.
What truly sets Duncan apart is his attention to detail. He doesn’t just tell you what to do—he takes the time to educate you on why each movement matters, ensuring that every rep is done with the right posture and engagement. Thanks to his guidance, I feel stronger, more confident, and more in control of my body than ever before.
Beyond his expertise, Duncan’s energy is contagious. He is kind, patient, and always brings a great sense of humor to our sessions, making even the hardest workouts something to look forward to. He knows exactly when to challenge me and when to encourage me, creating the perfect balance between pushing limits and making training enjoyable.
If you’re looking for a trainer who is not only highly skilled but also a pleasure to be around, Duncan is the one. I couldn’t recommend him more!
I’ve been training with Coach K for around 6 months now and it has been life changing. He is a great coach who really understood my goals and pushes me to complete them. Previously I worked out alone with no personal training and although I made some progress, it wasn’t exactly what I wanted and it took years to lose a few kilos. But, after I started at Enterprise all the time that was wasted trying to understand how machines worked, what exercises to do, and what I should be eating was dissipated which allowed me to entirely focus on the workouts given. I’ve had extreme results in a short period of time, I definitely recommend.
I’ve been training at Enterprise Fitness for over four months now and it’s been a transformative process. I didn’t have experience in gyms / lifting weights, but coaches Tom B and Tom P have both helped me gain confidence and improved my general form massively, including identifying weaknesses which I didn’t know existed. Would definitely recommend.
I’ve been training at Enterprise Fitness for almost 9 months and boy oh boy I couldn’t be any happier with my journey here so far.
From the moment you enter the doors at Enterprise Fitness, you are welcomed into the community.
I can’t be anymore grateful for my coach Al who has helped me transform my body composition in a such short amount of time. Al has supported me with the appropriate exercise and nutrition mechanisms which has set me up for success. Al continues to keep me accountable, motivated helps me stay on track even with my busy lifestyle! I appreciate the constant checks ins, the personalised programming around my habits / goals, and teaching me something new each week. Al and all the Coaches at Enterprise Fitness are welcoming, personable, reliable, committed and passionate in what they do best.
Thanks Al and the Enterprise coaches/ team for helping me push beyond my limits. I’m looking forward to a much bigger year for in reaching my next journey at Enterprise Fitness!
If you're looking for a gym with knowledgeable trainers and a supportive environment, I highly recommend Enterprise Fitness.
If you’re looking for change, I highly recommend Enterprise Fitness. Big thanks to Al (and Hugh) for being part of my journey!
Have been training at Enterprise for over a year now and have found everyone to be incredibly friendly and welcoming. Al in particular has been great in developing a program to work towards my goals while dealing with work constraints and some pre-existing injuries. He also has the patience of a saint helping me find a nutrition plan that actually works for me. One of the best things I’ve done for myself, only wish I’d done it sooner.
I have been training with Al at Enterprise Fitness since July 2024, and in that time, I have lost around 11.5kg. From the very beginning, Al has been incredibly supportive, guiding me through both training and nutrition. Since working with him, I feel stronger, more confident, and in control of my fitness journey.
On my first day at Enterprise Fitness, while discussing my nutrition plan, Al asked why I wanted to lose weight. I told him that I wanted to stop people from judging me for wearing oversized t-shirts. I’ve always worn them because they make me comfortable, but people often assume it's because I’m overweight. My goal was to be able to lift my shirt and prove that I wear it for comfort, not because of my size.
When I started, I was wearing 3XL t-shirts - now, I fit into 2XL, but I still choose to wear 4XL just because I can. I’ve lost weight, gained confidence, and no longer let others' judgments define me.
I highly recommend Enterprise Fitness.
Huge thanks to Al and Enterprise Fitness for their unwavering support!
I've been with Enterprise Fitness for over a year now. Al has been an incredible personal trainer from day one! He’s thoughtful in designing fun yet challenging programs and has been a great help with my nutrition as well.
I've also had a great experience with other amazing coaches over the past year – Jason, Hugh, and Jazz.
Everyone at Enterprise Fitness is very supportive and I highly recommend!
I'm 41 years old and been to many gyms in my lifetime already. This is by far the best bang for buck service available. You really do get results and amazing feedback that perpetuates you further towards your goals. Ask for Tom Peacock. One of my favorite personal trainers at Enterprise fitness.
BEST of the best!! I first discovered Enterprise Fitness when I participated in one of the education workshops (Elite Results) just over a year ago. It was here that I was blown away by the level of expertise, knowledge and know-how, more importantly the RIGHT knowledge that was shared, in an industry that can often be confusing at times, saturated with so many misleading trends and information.
It was easy to discern and distinguish the quality of Enterprise Fitness, across the board. I was fortunate enough to learn from Mark and the phenomenal coaches who presented over the course of the workshop. After the few solid days of learning and gaining a new appreciation of what 'real' training was truly about, I was hungry to continue my learning of all things fitness, and wanted to be trained by the best in the business.
In a room full of outstanding coaches (only the highest calibre of fitness professionals), I hand-picked Lewis as my PT. I immediately felt a sense of welcome from the first time I met him. Whilst his professionalism and expertise are remarkable, Lewis is always supportive and makes every session comfortable with his approachable, friendly nature. He is an absolute top tier coach, with unsurpassed knowledge on all aspects of training, human anatomy and nutrition. In addition to ticking every box as a trainer, Lewis is just an all-round great person who brings authenticity to everything he does!
The entire culture at Enterprise Fitness is something that left an immediate impression on me and is something I've grown to recognise and appreciate every time I walk through the doors at Enterprise. The aesthetically stunning, yet non-intimidating gym facility and premium equipment make it a joy to train here. I have never enjoyed my own training as I have since being a part of the Enterprise family. The environment is truly awesome and uplifting, with a strong sense of integrity and class at its core.
I have the utmost respect for Enterprise Fitness, and Master Coach Lewis Franz ... highly recommend!!
Probably the best gym in Melbourne. Having trained with both Thomas and Hugh, you can see what sets Enterprise Fitness apart - it’s the quality of their staff. Knowledgable, accountable and laser focused on getting the results. Professionals.
I've been training at Enterprise for (I think) around 9 years and I love it!! From day one, I've felt welcome in a supportive, inclusive and respectful environment. A true testament to Mark and all the coaches. My coach is Lewis; he is one of the most experienced, knowledgeable and committed coaches. Lewis is incredibly supportive in helping me achieve my fitness goals and makes every session challenging and rewarding (lifting progressively heavier weights). I highly recommend the team at Enterprise.
I was never into the gym but after joining under Lewis's guidance, Enterprise is far more than that. Lewis has helped me gain strength, maintain and improve weight, as well as the ability to get through my football game, all while over 50.
The team at Enterprise Fitness are the most knowledgeable and dedicated staff I've ever had the pleasure of working with. My coach, Kirtanraj has been my #1 supporter since day 1 of my fitness journey at Enterprise and continues to show up for me emotionally (and physically) every session. I have never had a more positive experience entering their facilities and cannot imagine changing my training regime for any other fitness business. Recommend 1000 percent, worth every cent!!!
I can’t be thankful enough towards Jazz and coach K for helping me achieve goals that were out of my imagination. With their constant check ins and ensuring I stick to my individual nutrition plan and exercise program, they continue to bring out the best in me! They have helped me strive for greatness and within myself taught me that with hard work you can achieve what you want and beyond that. They’ve taught me how to work within those hard times of social eating and going out and showing me that all can be achieved with determination and fun along the way too.
I’m excited to continue my journey at Enterprise Fitness with Jazz and coach K, we have so much planned already! Thank you for pushing me beyond what I thought was possible!
I've been training at Enterprise Fitness and couldn't be happier with my experience! My trainers, Tom and Shane, have been incredibly supportive in helping me achieve my fitness goals. Not only have they guided me in improving my overall strength and fitness, but they've also helped me transform my body composition.
The team's expertise is unmatched and they make even the most complex aspects of training and nutrition feel simple and manageable. Dieting is now an easy and sustainable part of my lifestyle.
What really set Enterprise Fitness apart from other gyms is its amazing culture. The gym has a welcoming and friendly atmosphere, with all the trainers greeting and encouraging you every time you're there. It’s clear that they genuinely care about your progress.
If you're looking for a gym with knowledgeable trainers and a supportive environment, I highly recommend Enterprise Fitness. Thanks, Tom and Shane, for helping me on this journey!
The moment I walked into enterprise fitness they were on the ball. Very welcoming. Very knowledgeable and they have a clear vision for you. Very well organised. My coach Hugh was outstanding. He taught me all the fundamentals and made me feel comfortable. Great trainers and great people. I’ve come a long way in my fitness journey thanks to these guys.
I did a 12 week block of training with Hugh. The aim was to correct poor technique, gain better mobility and get me on track with a good diet. Hugh was great to train with , in 12 weeks I’ve felt a massive difference in mobility, diet is back on track and easy to stick to and am now engaging the correct muscles when lifting weights. Big thanks to Hugh and the team at EF Sam..
I couldn’t recommend Enterprise more. From my first initial consult with Mark to meeting Coach K the level of service, customization and investment into getting to know me, my goals and lifestyle was second to none. As someone who retained multiple gym memberships throughout the years and only really went once or twice I was unsure how committed I’d be. I’ve never been someone who is enthusiastic about working out and struggle to find the motivation to consistently show up. Enterprise changed that, they empower you with nutritional information to ensure you have the knowledge to make permanent lifestyle changes. Coach K went above and beyond to understand my goals and objectives as well as explain the intent behind the nutrition and training program. I’m beyond thrilled with my progress so far and we’ve only just passed the halfway mark. In 8 short weeks I’ve completely transformed my way of eating, made significant changes to my body composition and for the first time ever actually enjoy going to the gym and training! If you’re serious about making long-term, sustainable lifestyle changes then I highly recommend getting in touch with Enterprise!
Highly Recommend! Matt and the Enterprise Fitness team have helped me prioritise my health and fitness again this year. Creating a plan around my busy lifestyle meant there were no excuses, and Matt kept me 100% accountable 100% of the time. More than just PT, the nutrition and dietary support I was given meant I was set up for success. I am so grateful to Matt for feeling strong again. I couldn’t recommend Enterprise Fitness more.
Tyrone is the real deal! Six months of hardcore training, and I’ve hit goals I didn’t think were possible. He’s tough, motivating, and makes you push beyond your limits. If you want results and are ready to work hard, Tyrone’s your guy. Pain today, pride tomorrow—Just be prepared—he doesn’t mess around. Thanks, Tyrone, for the sweat, the soreness, and the success! 💪
Sometimes you can get a lot more done with teamwork. Coach K at Enterprise has 100% supercharged my fitness progress.
I wasn't expecting miracles when I walked in three months ago. I already have a long history with working out, and I've made steady progress on my own. But training by yourself is hard, especially when you have a lot of other stuff going on in your life. I figured it might be good to have some help.
I was super impressed by the thoroughness of the process. K asked about my goals and existing habits and put together exercise and nutrition plans that built on what I'd done in the past. He took the time to explain the 'whys' behind my plan and helped me target the areas I was missing. He was patient and encouraging, but never condescending. The gym has a really good vibe, with people of all fitness levels made to feel welcome.
In the 12 weeks I've been at Enterprise, I've lost 3-4% bodyfat and put on so much muscle that my family and coworkers have started commenting on the 'guns' (my 2yo niece wanted to poke my biceps, which was cute.)
Even if you're experienced in the gym, don't underestimate how powerful it is to have a good coach! I've never worked so hard in my life, but it feels much easier because I'm not doing it alone.
Just completed a 12 week course with Hugh and I am so grateful for the experience. I was a gym newbie and self conscious starting out but Hugh gave me the confidence not only to take up space in the gym but also to pursue other forms of exercise and sport, giving me the push I needed to live more actively. I progressively lost weight when I followed the easy meal plan, and felt stronger every week. Hugh was fantastic at balancing firm encouragement with astute critique and positive reinforcement. On top of that Hugh managed to create an atmosphere of fun that made every session so enjoyable - couldn't recommend enough.
The team at Enterprise Fitness are phenomenal and I couldn’t recommend their services more.
They provide in depth work out plans and nutritional advice which is personally tailored to your dietaries and personal preferences.
Shane in particular has been fantastic and has motivated me every step of the way always making himself available to answer my many questions on diet and exercise.
I've trained all my life but had started to suffer from regular injuries and hadn't made any real progress in years. In the last 9 months training with Jason I've gone from 25% body fat to<14% and lean mass has increased from 58.5kg to 62kg. I'm probably in the best shape I've ever been.
It's been a case of train smarter, not harder. The advice and accountability along the way has had a massive impact on my overall fitness.
My diet is more consistent and enjoyable. I'm getting better overall nutrition, and I haven't had a training injury since I started. It's probably added years to my life and given me knowledge I can apply to my training and nutrition for the rest of my life. I wish I'd started sooner.
I just completed the six-week split course (2 sessions per week) and have lost 7 kilos. I’ve never been this excited to hit the gym. The environment was incredibly welcoming, and the support from everyone was amazing. My trainers were Hugh and Kai— I truly feel spoiled. Kai is tough but super knowledgeable, while Hugh is strict yet patient, always keeping me accountable with my food plan.
Lewis has been my personal trainer for years, and I can confidently say he’s the best in the business! His professionalism and wealth of knowledge are unmatched, and he has been instrumental in strengthening my body and improving my overall fitness. Lewis genuinely listens to your concerns and adjusts each session to your needs, knowing exactly when to push you to achieve more and when to take a step back.
His approach is not only about physical fitness but also about fostering confidence and resilience. I always leave our sessions feeling stronger, both physically and mentally. Lewis is incredibly accommodating, making it easy to stay consistent no matter how busy life gets.
The entire team at Enterprise is fantastic—warm, supportive, and always creating an uplifting environment. Every visit is not just a workout; it’s an experience that leaves you smiling and motivated to keep going. If you’re looking for a trainer who truly cares about your progress and well-being, Lewis is the one! Highly recommended!
My PT was Hugh Stebbing and he was a great trainer who was willing to answer all my question and if he didn’t know the answer would chase others to find it out. His communication and service was impeccable and he helped me lose a 12kg within only a few weeks! 10/10 would recommend.
Highly knowable staff who are a delight to train with. If you are looking for trainers that are more interested and invested in your training technique and results rather than their reflection in the mirror then this place is for you!
Can’t recommend these legends enough - Al’s support and coaching through my journey at Enterprise has been absolutely life changing for me, he met me where i was at each week and I wouldn’t be where i’m at now without his help; now consistently exercising, eating regularly and motivated. thank you!
I just wanted to say a huge thank you to Al for everything you've done for me over the past year. You've been so much more than just a trainer—you’ve been a friend, a therapist, and someone who's always had my back. Your support, encouragement, and expertise have made a huge impact on my fitness journey. I’m incredibly grateful for all the times you pushed me, believed in me, and helped me grow.
Training at Enterprise was a fantastic experience right from induction to my last session. The program was tailored to my goals and objectives and I loved how engaging my trainer Shane was throughout the process.
The 12 week program equipped me with the fundamentals I need to confidently understand my body, nutrition and workouts, which I am able to apply beyond the program itself.
Shane kept me accountable, motivated and his guidance during each session has been invaluable and I would easily recommend him for anyone considering joining.
