I’ve always had a stocky build and over the years had pursued many different sports and activities to improve my fitness such as tennis, swimming, gym based training etc. Whilst I always started off well I was never able to push myself to reach new levels of fitness, primarily due to pushing myself too hard in the early stages of training.

Having moved from Sydney in 2007 for lifestyle and work reasons I was looking to get involved in some kind of fitness activity again. Whilst I Initially succeeded the same patterns of lack of motivation crept in. I decided to Join the Original BootCamp in Melbourne run by juggernautPT and was happily surprised at how quickly my fitness came back to me. Cursing at Gary at least two times a week became one of my favourite past times but I felt that my work ethic  was improving greatly. After a few months I elected to look at  changing my training to introduce personal training at their Chapel St Gym.

My Personal Trainer, Nathan always makes sure that sessions are varied and interesting. He also doesn’t take no for an answer (reasonably) which has helped me to push through many of my fitness goals in the past 9 months. Whilst the sessions are always challenging they are never boring and there is always an explained purpose to why its necessary to do certain Tasks. From training with him at Chapel Fitness I’ve found myself much more engaged in not only lifting bigger weights etc, but understanding the body function and philosophy behind what we are doing. Whist it can be difficult to see in the first few months, 9 months on I can see and feel the changes that are happening, both physically and mentally.

I would highly recommend anyone in Melbourne who is looking to gain significant muscle mass and improve their general fitness to consider juggernautPT.

Thanks!

What I have gained from personal training with juggernautPT in the Melbourne CBD has been above and beyond anything I imagined.  The benefits have flowed into every aspect of my life.  I enjoy every session as we always do something different.   I have had support not only with the training but also with an eating plan which is helping me achieve my goal weight.

From Garys Desk: In a first for the not only Melbourne but the Australian Fitness Industry juggernautPT is publishing the following Blog/Testimonial straight from the keyboard of Anne-Sophie Jouhanneau, a current juggernautPT client & established young writer Anne-Sophie came to us earlier this year (2010) with a very low level of fitness, she wanted to tell you her personal view of what it is really like to train with us at juggernautPT, including the workouts, the emotions she experienced, the physical changes and the impact it has on her daily life.

New to juggernautPT

Hi everyone,

My name is Anne-Sophie, and I have recently started training with juggernautPT. Here, I will be sharing my personal experience with Gary and his team on my way to a fitter and better body.

I'd spent most of my 30's in
Melbourne playing rugby and keeping relatively fit. I trained 2 days a week, playing at least 1 match on the weekend and occasionally extra activities like cycling, jogging and swimming.

I guess I was in an okay place, although I would offset the good work with post-game beers, bbq's and parties. In my last 2 seasons I had a number of injuries which meant that I couldn't train as much as I should have and spent less time actually on the paddock playing rugby.

We came to juggernautPT as a couple and trained hard. Got engaged. Trained harder. On our big day we both looked Outstanding!

I have been jogging regularly for about 2 years. I was getting bored with it and had recently started finding excuses not to jog. I began looking around for something that would challenge and motivate me to exercise again.
