Fortify Movement & Health - Altona North (VIC)

5 /5 Suheri Purnomo: Matt is an outstanding personal trainer who has helped me achieve my goals of increasing strength and endurance. Despite having been going to the gym for many years, I wanted a more bespoke solution to target my specific needs. Matt’s expertise and personalised approach have been exactly what I needed. He’s pushed me to new levels, constantly challenging and motivating me to reach my full potential. Thanks to Matt, I’ve seen significant improvements in both my strength and endurance, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable personal trainer.

5 /5 John Milker: Working with Matt at Fortify Fitness has been an incredible experience. After 20 years away from the gym and dealing with serious injuries and mobility issues, I was hesitant to start again. However, Matt’s expertise, patience, and encouragement have been invaluable. He pushes me just the right amount, always challenging me to be my best self while being mindful of my limitations. Thanks to him, I’m not just getting back in shape, I’m surpassing my own expectations. I couldn’t recommend him more highly!

5 /5 lee vaughan: We were looking for someone to help my partner gradually improve his exercise and mobility due to ongoing health issues, and Matt has been fantastic from the start. His initial assessment was incredibly thorough and really hit the nail on the head in terms of what my partner needed from both a guidance and trainer perspective. The first session was very tailored and realistic. Matt focused on what my partner needed and could manage. Matt’s understanding of the body, supported by his background in sports science, really shows how he assesses and structures sessions. He also creates a safe, inclusive, and stress-free environment, which means a lot to us as part of the LGBTQIA+ community. My partner feels more comfortable and less anxious during sessions, and we’ve already seen positive changes in his confidence and mobility. The service is excellent and well worth it. We plan to continue with Matt long-term and are also considering sessions with other team members in the future.

5 /5 Michael Browning: I have been training with Matt for close to 6 months now and have really enjoyed the personal and motivating challenge of improving my fitness and wellbeing. Not only does Matt really take the time to understand what I really want to achieve but also in my case recommended improving other areas that would help achieve my main goals more efficiently. Has been a great experience!

5 /5 Matthew Ahern: I Train at Fortify Fitness to get science based exercise programs tailored to my changing & at times complex health needs. Matt Elphick and his team of trainers/exercise physiologists are great to work with, down to earth and friendly. I have sessions with Luke who is an intuitive trainer utilising his EP skills according to my varied needs and abilities on the day. I also have great Physio based exercise sessions with Emma, gaining onsite from her vast experience. The facilities are great, it’s dog and lgbtqia+ friendly. Matt makes great coffee too ( just ask him!).
