MD Strength - Notting Hill (VIC)

5 /5 Lisa B: I’ve been training with Mark and Lee-Ann Derrick since 2022. These two are such an impressive coaching team operating out of arguably Australia’s pre-eminent training facility. As a masters lifter that’s gone through two major surgeries I absolutely trust Mark to program safely for me to achieve my competitive goals. If I set a big goal, Mark is already ahead of me with data, ideas and programming strategies to get me there. I love training with MD strength and I cannot recommend this team more highly.

5 /5 Natalie Sanchez: I just completed the 8 week Beginner Barbell Program and I cannot recommend MD Strength enough. Mark and Lee-Ann are incredible coaches and create such an inclusive and supportive space. They are knowledgeable as well as empathetic and genuinely invested in each person’s journey. This challenge wasn’t just about lifting weights for me, it was about reclaiming my confidence and learning that I’m capable of so much more than I thought and Mark and Lee-Ann fostered this every step of the way. If you’re looking for a way in to the world of strength training and powerlifting, this is the place to go!

5 /5 Lauren Findlay: MD Strength is hands down one of the best powerlifting gyms I’ve trained at! The space is absolutely huge and the equipment is top tier with an unreal amount of racks, bars and plates. The community is super friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend to all powerlifters or anyone wanting to get into the sport!

5 /5 Chantal Costello: State of the art powerlifting gym in Melbourne with an incredible community! What more is there to say? No matter if you’re a beginner or competing at world level you’ll feel the team atmosphere the moment you walk in the door. Leeanne & Mark went above and beyond to ensure we felt welcome and introduced us to all their equally welcoming members. The energy is infectious - a good laugh while lifting heavy at the same time. Train or compete here, you won’t regret it! :)
