PERSONAL TRAINER (EVENINGS & SATURDAYS) - Authentic Health Studio, Personal Training Essendon Gym Build a Career. Change Lives. Coach With Purpose. Let's be honest. The fitness industry has no shortage of gyms looking for Personal Trainers. But if you're looking for a place where you'll simply rent the floor, chase leads and count reps... this probably isn't the role for you. At Authentic Health...

Growth isn’t supposed to be comfortable. It confronts you.

It asks you to let go of versions of yourself you may have outgrown.

It comes with lessons and perspectives you didn’t expect.

To challenge you and build resiliance.

This is how we achieve what we set out to when the unpredictability of life happens around us.

This is why MINDSET is one of our pillars for optimal health. How will you reframe one way of thinking today?

Have you ever stepped on the scales after a week of doing everything “right” only for the number to go up? 🤷‍♀️

The reality is that your body weight can fluctuate from day to day because of:
* Hydration status and fluid retention
* Carbohydrate (glycogen) stores
* Food in your digestive tract
* Salt intake
* Inflammation caused by training

These fluctuations are completely normal and can occur even when you’re making excellent progress towards your goals.

Instead of obsessing over a single weigh-in, focus on:
* Weight trends over time
* Progress photos
* Body measurements
* How your clothes fit
* Training performance

Remember, one number taken one day of the week never tells the whole story.

If you are interested in a comprehensive report on your body composition, we’ve got a machine for that! DM us “SCAN” and we’ll book you in.

A little food for thought heading into the weekend 🤔

Zone 2 training. It’s not fast, it’s not flashy, but letting your heart rate hang out in this zone regularly does more than you might know.

If you want to improve endurance, build aerobic capacity, and recover faster - Zone 2 is where the magic happens.

The best runners in the world spend a huge portion of their training time here, and for good reason.

Here’s why Zone 2 is so effective:
1. Builds Aerobic Capacity - Strengthens your heart, lungs, and mitochondria so you can run faster with less effort.

1. Improves Fat Utilisation - Trains your body to burn fat for fuel, preserving glycogen for when you need it most.

1. Promotes Recovery While Still Training - Low-stress, high-reward training that builds endurance without excess fatigue.

1. Strengthens the Heart - Increases stroke volume, improves oxygen delivery, and makes your running more efficient.

Not sure how to find your heart rate zones and how often you should be spending time in each zone? Comment “HR” and we’ll help you understand.

A mirror-free gym is a deliberate choice driven by our results-oriented approach to coaching.
As every client at AHS trains under the supervision of a qualified coach, we observe movement from angles a mirror simply cannot show, correct technique in real time, and teach our clients to develop body awareness without relying on constant visual feedback.

Every detail of our training environment serves a purpose and this one is no different.
For us, the priority has always been the same: safety, quality of movement, awareness, results.

When you stop judging yourself in the reflection, you start truly feeling what your body is doing!

Aligning with the Authentic core values from the get go, it was silly not to join the team!

Not her dogs btw 🥲🐶
