You have come to the right place. I’ll help you achieve whatever you want with my one-on-one personal training sessions or tailored programmes/online coaching.

personal training

This is perfect for those who want to be held accountable onsite and in-person. I’ll provide you with workouts and push you to complete every set.

This is a great way to ensure you stay on track and focused. I’ll monitor your performance, provide technical feedback on your form and help you make the adjustments you need to progress.

tailored programmes & online coaching

If you’re looking for a more do-it-yourself type of approach, I can customise a programme to suit your training needs.

Every programme is updated weekly with new numbers alongside monthly calls to ensure you are keeping on track. I also encourage my clients to send videos of specific exercises to ensure technique is on point. A great solution for those who want to take training into their own hands with online guidance.

  • “When I started training with Bysshe I wanted to loose weight, get stronger, look and feel better - the usual generic goals. I knew I personally would need results fast in order to maintain an interest in the endeavour. In three months of once weekly sessions (plus one - two other independent exercises a week) and Bysshe’s guidance through a healthy and balanced calorie deficient diet, I have lost 6kg, and 1cm - 2cm everywhere I wanted to. I love that Bysshe personalises each session depending on my whims, energy level, and plan for the week, keeping things different (which I need) while remaining challenging. Despite our long standing relationship, Bysshe is the utmost professional at all times, treating me like any other client. His style is firm but fair but fun and he makes me feel like he cares about my progress as opposed to just being $$ in the bank.”

  • “Bysshe has been helping me with my gym program for nearly two years. What I love about Bysshe is his training ethos. There is so many quick fix programs out there, and yes it would be great to click your fingers and two weeks later you’ve achieved your goal, thankfully Bysshe is a tad more realistic. He understands everyone has ups and downs, good weeks, bad weeks, but at the end of the day consistency is the winner. Bysshe knows his stuff and I highly recommend him for whatever fitness goals you have.”

  • “If you're wondering about the benefits of having Bysshe as a PT, there are many! Ensuring you are exercising correctly. Meeting you where you are according to your ability, mood, & energy each session, creativity & flexibility to solve what ever comes up, positivity & motivation. Plus he's just a bloody nice, funny guy!”
