Loretta is a Brunswick personal trainer.

Alastair is a Brunswick personal trainer. I have been a personal trainer for 10 years and in that time i have seen the industry explode and now implode.

The status of personal trainer has never been more easy to obtain. The reality is that these days many of the people who gain there qualification have NO EXPERIENCE in training themselves, so I question exactly how much they can enhance the training of their clients.

I have a background in bodybuilding, and my basic training principles revolve around strength training, high intensity cross training and athletics. I believe a strong body is not only an aesthetically pleasing body, but it is also highly functional - a term that is widely misused in this modern era of personal training.

I have worked as a personal trainer for Fitness First, and other health clubs, yet I am proud to base myself at Doherty's 24:7 Gym, a gym famous for serious people and serious training.

I look forward to seeing you down here soon.

Be sure to ask for 'Little Al', i'll be here, it is, my home.
