Real People. Real Results.
Meet the Bond Fitness members and hear their stories.
At BFPT, our members are everyday people over the age of 40 – parents, professionals, busy lives and busy minds, all looking for something more than just a workout. For some, it’s about improving their health. For others, it’s a way to relieve stress, boost confidence, or simply carve out time for themselves.
Whatever their reason for starting, they’ve each found a place to belong, and results they never thought possible. Here’s what they had to say.
“I couldn't of done it without these four guys”
Robert came to Bond Fitness in 2023 knowing "he had to do something." He was working from home, leading a very sedentary lifestyle and he was "getting ashamed of [himself]." He struggled with tying shoelaces, putting socks on and "found himself hiding in photos."
Robert signed up to train three times per week and one year later he is "in a completely different place." He has lost nearly 30kg and shrunk his waistline by 6 inches.

“I found something that suits me”
Rowena joined Bond Fitness, working with Coach and Owner Henry in 2023. Since that time she has consistently maintained training 2/3 times per week. For almost three years. Rowena said she "had never been comfortable with exercise, but she feels comfortable [at Bond Fitness.]"

“The best part of my week!”
Sally started training with Bond Fitness, and coach Henry, shortly after it opened in 2022. She was "so disgusted by how unhealthy she felt." She felt depressed and anxious. Bond fitness became the thing in her diary that she looked forward to. Every week she found her posture improving and her clothes sizes getting smaller. Her skin improved and she noticed massive improvements in her mental health.

“It's nice being in a small group – it's good having the 1:1 sessions as well”
Penny
“Everybody here has been so kind and welcoming”
Emma came to Bond Fitness in early 2024. She was anxious and desperate to make a change to both her physical and her mental fitness. Emma says that coming to Bond Fitness always "feels like you've achieved something and this does help with your mental health." In her time with us she has lost over six stone and with the help of coaches like Jack and Ellen, can now deadlift 130 kilograms!

“I feel really good in myself, it makes me feel happy”
Starting with Bond Fitness in 2023, Paulette is now in her third year as part of our incredible community. She trains every single week and is especially fond of our Revive sessions. Considering she had "never been to a gym" before, this, in and of itself is a remarkable achievement.
