Our university-qualified Sports Scientists are here to help offering individualised hybrid personal training with 50+ 60-minute session running each week from Monday to Saturdays. This is not a typical group class. You'll train alongside 1-3 other people with each member following their individualised program which is reviews and progressed every 4-5 weeks. We believe in (and the research supports) long term sustainable habit change over quick fixes and intense challenges. We understand that each person is different. This is why no session or program is the same.

Fantastic experience: Lovely boutique studio with the friendliest crew of trainers , led by Dylan. These guys are seriously the best- professional, supportive, highly skilled and fun! They’ll work with you to modify plans for any fitness / confidence levels and be your coach, cheerleader and friend along the way. Plenty of options ranging from 1:1 PT to group based sessions. They have given serious thought to the member experience, resulting in smooth processes and communication. I can’t thank the team enough for the motivation and training ! Rin :)

Daniel Buffett 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Just over two months into my training at State of Fitness and I couldn’t be happier. Feeling stronger, looking better, I have more energy and I’m actually sticking to my plan! Great bunch of professionals lead by Dylan who really care and support you in reaching your goals. Very different from other training/gym experiences I’ve had in the best possible way. Best decision I made in 2023.

State of Fitness

Daniel, we really appreciate much - thank you! We look forward to a big 2024 with you, and happy holidays!

Jessica Gilbert 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: One year on and Im feeling healthier, happier, stronger and fitter than I've ever been thanks to the State of Fitness Team. After two pregnancies, two years in lockdown and a roster of bad eating (and drinking habits), I decided enough was enough and it was time to dive into working on ME again. Its been just over one year and I'm finally feeling myself again - 30kg down - I've reset, and I've made some lifelong friends along the way. Other than the obvious weight loss, my mental clarity and overall wellbeing and mental health has been the best its ever been. My body doesn't ache anymore, I no longer have a once-a-year "I've pulled my back out" scenario and all of my trainers at State of Fitness have made me feel supported at all stages of my journey, ensuring that "gym injuries" were absolutely a thing of the past. If anyone is wanting to get fit and maybe feels self-conscious or unsure - this team is really the best. Its a JOY to go to training, not just for the trainers (and exercise) but the wonderful State of Fitness community that you're introduced to too!

State of Fitness

Thank you so much Jessica! We love having you as part of the State of Fitness fam. You have been working hard and it's paying dividends! We look forward to our next session!

Josie Wagstaff 2 years ago

Nikhil Garg 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Love training with the team at State of Fitness - been coming for 5+ months and they've made me more aware of my body/posture/core given issues with my lower back, and made me more confident with lifting weights again. Highly recommend to all!

State of Fitness

Thanks for the kind words Nikhil!

Nina Afshar 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Dylan for about 6 months now. I’m so glad that I made a decision to leave my previous personal trainer and join state of fitness. I wish I had done it earlier! Dylan and his team are experienced and knowledgeable. The improvement in my fitness and strength in the past couple of months is unbelievable!!! With Dylan’s help, my left shoulder is in much better condition, an issue that my previous personal trainers couldn’t fix. I’m so grateful for the support I’ve received from Dylan and his team…the quality of service is another level. highly recommend!

State of Fitness

It's a pleasure having you in the gym Nina, and thank you for sharing.

Fantastic experience: I don’t like exercise and these trainers have changed that for me. We started to get fit and toned before our wedding in 2019 and we never stopped. Friendly and fun environment to workout in that have given me and my husband consistently great results.

State of Fitness

Thank you Juls!

Russell Gibson 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I really wanted to get back to some fitness, and I'm glad I met the State Of Fitness team.

From a customer service perspective, I have really enjoyed the friendly interactions and conversations with the lads. Thanks SoF :)

Fantastic experience: Signing up with State of Fitness was the best decision I made. Their ability to get you motivated has me helped both on and off site. Thanks to their wisdom I had all the tools I needed to keep my fitness journey going throughout the holiday season. I’m returning now in 2022 with confidence and can not wait for this amazing team to help me take my training and aesthetic to the next level.

State of Fitness

corinne proske 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great trainers and business - particularly if you are somewhat daunted by the equipment in a gym. The team are friendly, professional and tailor to your specific needs (even music selection if you are lucky!). Thanks State of Fitness for being part of my extended family. You rock

State of Fitness

It's a lot of fun working with you Corinne, and thanks for sharing.

State of Fitness

Jess, you are officially the ‘chin-up’ queen of SOF thanks for sharing

Kate Martin 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Whilst staying with family in Melbourne (who are members of SOF) we became temporary members for a month. We train regularly in London so wanted to continue with our normal exercise routine. The ethos at SOF was very similar to our gym in London. Dylan and his great team were welcoming from the start, assessing our fitness & ability and tailored a program for us. A mixture of strength training and cardio. With their friendly positive teaching they made every session fun… yes you can have fun whilst working hard if you have the right trainers who are confident in their knowledge & have the ability to get the best out of you with lots of encouragement. We will definitely train with SOF when we are back in Melbourne.

State of Fitness

Thank you Kate!

Thanks for sharing Marty!

Jennifer Huynh 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have trained with Dylan on and off for nearly 3 years now (and Scotty a few times). His passion, knowledge and caring nature is second to none. He has helped my body to recover from chronic pains and injuries in ways that I thought weren't possible. From getting me out of rehab to making me physically more aware and stronger - there's nothing that SOF can't do! What I love about SOF is not only their care for their clients but the time and effort they put into making sure you get the best tailored program to meet your needs. Only downside about Dyl is his music during training - so please make sure you give him some grief about it! AH

State of Fitness

Cheers Jen!

Sammy Smith 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: High quality training. Supportive environment. Great results. Experienced trainers. Best training facility and people going around. I highly recommend State of Fitness.

State of Fitness

Cheers Sam!

Simon Roberts 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Been training with Dylan and Scott for a couple of years now and cannot recommend them more highly. They're basically health & fitness nerds and put a lot of science and thought behind what they do, and make you do!

State of Fitness

You're the man Simon, and we'll take any chance to nerd out! It's great having you apart of the gym mate.

Daniel Kleviansky 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Far and beyond the best coaches I've ever had the pleasure of training with. Saying this industry is saturated is the understatment of the century, but the team Dylan has managed to assemble here is world class, and they have flawlessly paired their expertise with equally top-tier professionalism. I am continually impressed by their dedication to their clients, and would recommend the entire team without a second's hesitation.

State of Fitness

Daniel, you're the man! It's always a pleasure working with you mate and thanks for sharing ❤

Miche S 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dylan and Scott, at State of Fitness, have an absolute wealth of knowledge from rehab, to general movement and fitness to hardcore training. They take the time to understand where you and your body are at and what you want to achieve, then tailor a program to suit. They support you to achieve your goals in a safe, injury free and sustainable way. I had shoulder and neck issues for decades - with weekly visits to chiropractors, Osteo’s and trying whatever treatment to relieve the pain. I no longer need any treatment. I never thought this would be possible. My training is now just a way of life. It continues to evolve and change depending on what I am dealing with and my goals too. I highly recommend the State of Fitness team.

State of Fitness

We really the time it took for you to share your experience with us Mich, so thank you! The gym wouldn't be the same without you.

Gabriel Iglesia 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I started training at State of Fitness in November 2020 with a focus of becoming stronger, and to look much healthier and leaner. Without any clues who the trainers were, Dylan had stepped in to assess my goals and later on organised the suitable program for my fitness needs, and eventually brought Scott over to pilot my first training. Since then, working out with them has been constant, and the result that I am getting is far beyond my first expectations. I have become much stronger, and have obtained confidence in terms of my overall posture. In fact, people come to me these days expressing how surprised they are with how I manage to work out more intensely each week, and it is indeed complimenting. Dylan’s, and Scott’s combined knowledge is the best tool this gym can offer, but what struck me the most, and what fuelled me to keep going is their ability to connect with people easily. They are beyond friendly, and the amount of support they would give you is stratospherically unbelievable, they possess patience which makes them the best coaches anybody could ever work with. Therefore, I would utter their names in a heartbeat for recommendations.

State of Fitness

Gabriel - the man who wants the biggest glutes in South Yarra! Thanks for sharing mate, and you've been absolutely flying with your training so keep up the great work

Gillian Fraser 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've trained with Dylan for years, and he's always been a great trainer, plus lovely bloke- but he's really been able to step up his game since opening his own facility. The combination of well educated trainers who properly tailor all workouts to suit the client, keep great records, plus a well equipped and maintained studio make for a winning all round experience.

State of Fitness

Thanks for the lovely words Gill!

Cam S 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've used a variety of different gyms and personal trainers in the past, but I've never received the level of individual care and attention that I do since I started training with State of Fitness. Dylan and his team are both knowledgeable and enthusiastic about what they do, which makes working out a pleasure, not a chore. The studio itself is a pleasant space to be in: always clean, with a boutique feel, but still big enough to have all the equipment you are ever likely to need.

State of Fitness

Thank you for sharing Cam!

Philippe Roy 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: What a great team at State of Fitness. They are equipped with the knowledge and tools to get you fit. Dylan and the crew provide high-quality training and services to reach your goals. I came for rehab on my shoulder but continue to go so I can stay fit and healthy.

State of Fitness

Thank you Philippe!

Renee Camilleri 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Scott and Dylan for 1.5 years now. After the first 3 months I could see my fitness goal coming in close. I was stronger looked leaner and felt fit and amazing. Now that I am pregnant I feel confident I can carry a baby around and still feel strong. It’s so comforting knowing I have a safe place that I can come to for any of my body’s needs and wants. These guys are highly educated and dedicated to their customers service I love SoF

State of Fitness

You're an absolute pleasure to work with Renee and thank for sharing your experience with us so far.

Kelsey 0118 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Could not recommend highly enough! Dylan helped with my shoulder rehabilitation more than any Physio, Osteo or GP ever did. He has also provided ongoing support and checks in to see how everything is going. All around great trainer that genuinely cares about his clients

State of Fitness

Thanks for sharing Kelsey!

Matt Holmes 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been working with the team at State of Fitness for a while now and absolutely love it. Dylan has tailored a training program to my individual needs, covering general strength training, weight loss and rehab for injuries. Every step of the way, I've been supported and pushed to improve and I've learned a lot along the way as well. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dylan and the team at State of Fitness to anyone - they're a great team who will work with you to help you achieve your goals whilst keeping you accountable and motivated along the way!

State of Fitness

You're absolutely flying with your training and lifestyle changes Matt and thanks for sharing. Happy to help anytime.

Lana 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: After suffering from neck pain, headaches and migraines for 10 years I had seen many different health professionals including physio's, myo's, oesteo's etc. I started training with Dylan a year ago in the hope that building some strength would alleviate some pain. Dylan was extremely warm, welcoming and encouraging. After a few sessions of training my headaches had decreased in frequency and my neck pain improved. Strength training has been the key to keeping the headaches and pain at bay. I keep training with Dylan every couple of weeks to keep my strength up. I would 100% recommend anyone and everyone to Dylan & State of Fitness, especially those suffering from chronic pain.

State of Fitness

Thank you for sharing Lana. Our job is easy when we work with people like yourself.
