Cessnock since 2020, Singleton since 2024. Same programming, same coaches, same expectation that you leave each session having been taught something.

Tom Johnson opened the Cessnock gym in 2020 and added Singleton in 2024. The point of training here is what it does for the rest of your week: carrying the shopping, keeping up with the kids, getting through a shift without your back complaining. Our coaching team comes from a mix of backgrounds, which is useful when the room holds a teenager, a shift worker and someone in their sixties at the same time.
None of this is complicated. It is mostly a matter of doing the same sensible things every week, for years.
A room where a nervous first-timer is not the odd one out.
Coaching that says the same thing on a Tuesday as it does on a Saturday.
Every workout scaled so the class starts and finishes together.
Coaches who keep studying, because the job is never finished.
Recognition that sleep, food and stress decide most of your result.
No add-ons or upsells hidden behind the sign-up. This is the full list.
Full rig, barbells, dumbbells, rowers, bikes and turf. Nothing you will not use.
Class times built around early starts, school runs and shift work.
Every session scaled to you on the day, injuries and all.
Straightforward nutrition advice when you ask for it.
A qualified coach running the room for the whole hour.
Programs for adults, teens and kids, in separate sessions.
Your lifts and benchmarks logged so progress is checkable, not a feeling.
In-house comps, social nights and people who notice when you go missing.
Twenty-five minutes apart, same programming on both whiteboards. Train at whichever suits your day.
