Listen to what one of our clients has to say about Next Gear training program.

“After years of partaking in monotonous and unrelated training programs, training with Nick has opened up a whole new world of fitness, giving me that edge I needed. Playing high level football is one of the most physically demanding activities I can imagine, and I found myself asking how can I possibly be better than the guy next to me if I am doing exactly the same training as he is.

My knowledge of training components has increased dramatically since training with Nick, escaping the traditional body building training routine that most people get sucked into. By utilising whole body exercises with dynamic strength training, and improving my posture, Nick has helped me become fitter and stronger in ways I didn’t know existed. I have not necessarily learned to train harder but certainly smarter, our training sessions have not only been helpful physically for myself, but mentally as Nick has a wealth of knowledge, helping me understand what I need to know in many different areas of health and fitness.

Overall I have benefited immensely from my training with Nick; areas of my game have been specifically replicated in our training programs which have helped me reach great heights in my last year of junior football. Winning the Oakleigh chargers TAC cup best and fairest in 2009 would never have been possible were it not for my intense training sessions with Nick.”

Here is what our clients have to say

“..the work I have done with Nick to correct my posture, improve my balance and increase my core strength, combined with regular massage, has meant that I no longer suffer from muscle spasms in my lower back.” - John Naismith

"After years of partaking in monotonous and unrelated training programs, training with Nick has opened up a whole new world of fitness, giving me that edge I needed.” - Luke Andrews

I started training with Nick in July 2011, and what I have managed to achieve in such a short time since then both physically and mentally has been truly amazing. I suffered a serious back injury in 2006 and since then have had countless spinal injections, have undergone three major surgeries on my spine, and have endured a number of stints at rehabilitation and innumerable physio sessions. Nick’s expertise guidance and encouragement has given me the confidence to go further in my training than I ever thought possible, and most importantly without risking further injury. Nick adjusts the program each week so as I am continually challenging myself, but does so within my physical limitations. He also monitors my progress between training sessions online through PT enhance and emails me with feedback when required. As a result of training with Nick my core strength and balance has improved significantly, resulting in improved posture, which in turn places less pressure on my spine.” Karen Nottingham

Who can do CORE ESSENTIALS?

This course suits anyone who suffers from injury, has back pain or neck pain or anyone just wanting to improve the strength in their core. Really this is a class for everyone who is starting out with an exercise program wanting to know all of the secrets.
