100Strong

Fantastic experience: I don't really like gyms, they too often make me feel like I am trading my humanity for the promise of perfection. 100Strong is different - a space where I got to enjoy the feeling of getting stronger and more grounded. Antoni doesn't just teach you to lift. He teaches you to listen. To the iron, yes, but more importantly to that quiet voice inside that we've learned to silence between deadlines and dinner plans. He reads Gogol and quotes philosophy between sets, but his real wisdom is in the way he sees you now and who you can be tomorrow. Come here if you're tired of performing your workout and ready to experience it instead. Just don't expect Antoni to let you hide behind your usual excuses. He's too honest for that. I wanted fitness, but found something more: a return to myself, and wisdom that strength isn't just about what you can lift, but what you can carry.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I have been going to Antoni's Kettlebell Strength training studio for 10 months now. And WE LOVE IT. Kettlebell is as technical as it gets in strength training. And in swinging those big weights over and around your body, you want to train with the absolute best. Antoni is a master Kettlebell trainer and he has spent 2 decades perfecting kettlebell lifting, having trained with the masters of this sport from across the world. And it truly comes through in his style and passion for the sport I've previously done years of f45 style training and Antoni's Kettlebell training sessions beats those techniques fair and square. We started out as absolute beginner in Kettlebell lifting / swings / snatches etc. and have doubled our capacity in both weights and intensity with Antoni's progressive overload programs. Six stars (and some more for Antoni's furry training buddy Eta!)

Fantastic experience: One of the best Fitness Studios in Manly focused on strength training. Antoni (100Strong) is an absolute expert in kettlebell workouts. He takes great time and care to understand your needs, and builds a tailored program focused on improving your overall fitness, strength and endurance. His focus on ensuring the right technique is taught and followed is incredible. My Partner and I have been going there for a few months, and love our training days with Antoni. Additional brownie points for his awesome ‘Furry partner in crime’ Eta, who you will often find either curled up on her blanket or training alongside :) I highly recommend 100Strong!

Fantastic experience: Spent a month training with Antoni, including group classes. Small boutique style gym where the attention is paid to each client.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to 100Strong for almost a year now and I love this gym. It's a small gym with really high quality equipment. Antoni is everything you want in a trainer - knowledgable and encouraging whilst being sensitive to your limitations. There's no boot camp style yelling here, it's a lovely community with no big egos. The class times are frequent and flexible and fit well into my schedule. And best of all he has the sweetest pup who will welcome you with many kisses. Can't recommend it enough.

Fantastic experience: The first gym ever I enjoy going to and feel like I am there for a reason. I didn't even know what the kettlebells were last year now I am lifting and pushing myself more every week. It is not your standard Virgin/F45/ ... gym. You will focus on fewer things, do smaller number of excercises but they will be much more effective than spending hours anywhere else. Antoni the owner, is great, he will teach you everyting there is to know about kettlebells, how to swing it, clean and jerks, snatches ... he will correct everything that needs correcting so there is no risk of injury, and he will help you with the nutrition if you need help. It is Manly's gem this place!

Fantastic experience: Great instruction and even better vibe! Check out this gem of a studio next time you're in Manly looking for a workout backed up by years of knowledge.

Fantastic experience: Best gym I’ve ever joined! Great fun and getting better results than ever before

Fantastic experience: Great little gym that will teach you how to properly use a Kettlebell. It's essentially one on one training even though you are in a class. There is good membership options to suite regular or ad hoc use. It's super relaxed and friendly with a good mix of girls and boys. Most importantly, dogs train for free :)

Fantastic experience: I have been training a 100 Strong for well over a year now and looking forward to continuing to do so. Antoni, the owner and sole trainer of 100 Strong, is really focussed on providing a personalised experience and overall fun atmosphere. The classes, usually small in size and with the participants doing exercises tailored to them, feel more like PT sessions but with multiple people and not like your usual gym classes. If you are looking for a small independent gym with an experienced PT in the Manly area, I think 100 Strong is your best option. :)

Fantastic experience: Fantastic trainer, awesome atmosphere. Training tailored to my personal goals.

Fantastic experience: O Antoni fez um curso profissional de kettlebells na Russia, ele foi direto na fonte! Conhece demais, extremamente didático e amigável, um amor de pessoa! Para vc que gosta de treinar independente kettlebells são uma tremenda ferramenta e a 100 Strong o lugar certo para vc aprender.

Fantastic experience: I have trained at a lot of gyms and 100 Strong is by far the best. The classes are small, friendly and the exercises customised to suit each participant. Kettle bells are the complete package offering strength, conditioning and an aerobic workout. I'm the fittest and strongest I have ever been. I even bought my own kettle bells so that I can train at home on the days I can't get to the gym.

Fantastic experience: Antoni's emphasise on functional strength and training techniques in a gym without the 'gym bro' atmosphere is the major selling point for me. His 100Strong Kettlebells are the most comfortable and evenly weighted Kettlebells as well.

Fantastic experience: Focused, expert instruction from one of the most experienced kettlebell instructors in Australia.

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Antoni at 100Strong for 6 weeks and have already seen huge improvements in my strength and confidence. Antoni's training approach is the perfect mix of structure and intuition and I particularly enjoy how the group classes are smaller and more personal. Love it!

Fantastic experience: Best gym I have been to! I have trained in gyms for over 20 years and this is the first gym that caters for all my needs. The classes are small so I feel I get the PT 1:1 oversight to make sure my technique is correct (& I don't injure myself when pushing my boundaries). The classes also strike the right balance between resistance training and cardio which I have struggled to find elsewhere. Besides being a great trainer Antoni has also created a great atmosphere so you find yourself working out with like minded people who get on really well. Recommended to all ages!

Fantastic experience: Big focus on practising the right form and doing the basics well to achieve results. The groups are small so you get lots of attention and also learn from the others in the session. 3 weeks since starting and already feeling stronger!

Fantastic experience: This place is the perfect example that shows that size does not matter. This small gym offers everything that you need to make you stronger and to develop skills that you will carry over to whatever other physical activity you do in your life!!

Fantastic experience: Love Antoni's holistic approach to training and all the people who train here are awesome. So many skills to learn and lots of fun to be had here.

Fantastic experience: 100Strong is a gym like no other. It's boutique, personalised and has an amazing environment and community. I've trained in many different gyms in my life, but nothing has compared to this one. Antoni (the trainer) is a very experienced and friendly trainer. He provides training program that is tailored for me and my well-being in the long run. I highly recommend this gym

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of 100Strong for 7 weeks now, I walked in while recovering from a wrist injury and in matter of weeks I saw significant improvement in both strength and fitness. Antoni offers a great training program with focus on technique, breathing, functional strength and conditioning. It's a great gym with good vibes, banter and amazing culture. I can honestly say I’m hooked to kettlebell sport and awesomeness of 100Strong :)

Fantastic experience: Antoni actually got me into kettlebell sport (AKA Girevoy Sport) almost 9 years ago and his focus on technique led me to win my first competition. He focuses on using an integrated ‘whole systems’ approach to training, focusing on technique, breathing, fluid and functional strength and movement. Despite seeing other PTs in the past, I finally learnt proper squat technique which has really helped me overcome one of my most hated yoga postures! Antoni’s depth of knowledge is incredible and his training is individualised. At 100Strong you will get a fun personalised experience. Definitely recommended. Thanks coach!

Fantastic experience: Antoni is a master of his trade. Kettlebells first originated in 17th century Russia as a measuring weight, they were then developed by Russian strongmen into the strength training tool they are today. This stuff isn't new, it's very, very old! But to learn it correctly, you need someone who understands the principles of movement and is not just chasing fads - Antoni is your guy! And 100Strong is the place to go if you're looking to get stronger and more aware of how your body works. You'll also get a killer workout along the way ;)

Fantastic experience: So many average trainers out there - Antoni is definitely not one of them. By focusing on technique and quality over quantity I’ve achieved really good results. Little things make a big difference when you have been training for a while and Antoni has given my training a complete reboot and made me look at why I train and what I want to achieve in a different way. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Hands down, one of the best training facilities that I have ever been to. Antoni is a master of his craft, and his holistic approach to fitness and strength means that he can develop highly personalised programs to help you to reach your goals faster.

Fantastic experience: I have been working with Antoni for 5 months now to recover from a back injury. He has got me from barely walking to squatting 110kg comfortably. Cant recommend him and 100 Strong highly enough.

Fantastic experience: I joined this gym after being recommended by a friend. The class size is small and you work on a highly personalised program using kettle bells and weights. I have developed core strength which has not only improved my overall fitness but reduced injuries that I was plagued with in my other sports! I brought a pack of 10 classes to start with and I am now moving to unlimited class pass so I can get the most of out of it! Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: I wouldn't go back to large impersonal gyms now that I've started coming here. I've had great results training here so far!

Fantastic experience: Awesome environment to train in. Really great crew and vibes. But, most importantly, the personalised workouts are the best!

Fantastic experience: Why isn’t 100Strong in the US??! When I visited my best friend in Sydney, she said we *had* to stop by, and I can see why! Antoni makes strength training fun and approachable for women. I felt totally comfortable and loved the laid-back vibe and sense of community. Unlike other trainers I’ve worked with, he knows how to help people like me who have hypermobility issues build muscle to support joints and prevent injury. Wish I could train there every single day!

Fantastic experience: Strongly recommend going to this place! Antoni will make you work hard in an efficient way. He will listen to your goals, improve your technics and adapt your training accordingly. I really enjoy the small groups on the training session too. Definitely the best!

Fantastic experience: Can I give it 10 stars? I am lucky to have found this personal training gym. Antoni the owner makes your experience more personalised than any other gym experience I've ever had. With smaller sized group trainings and more personalised attention than places like F45, you're sure to get the results you're after while also learning great technique and ENJOYING your workouts. Not intimidating at all no matter what level of physical shape you're in, everyone I've met there is super friendly and enjoyable to spend time with. Can't recommend enough!

Fantastic experience: Great studio with real ‘one on one’ training . Helped me alot with strength, mobility and nutrition

Fantastic experience: aaaamaaaazing place! I’ve learnt so much from Antoni! thanks for everything you big fluffy bear

Fantastic experience: Since coming to 100Strong I feel like I've wasted years doing "sweaty" training without real results (eg, Kayla Itsines and F45). 100Strong is all about effective workouts in the most efficient use of time. I don't have to run around like a rabbit on speed, but I do have to focus on core and strength deadlifting and squatting weights I would never have dreamed of! Highly recommend this place.

Fantastic experience: I couldn’t recommend 100 Strong highly enough. Antoni works really closely with you to ensure your technique is exactly how it should be. After just a short time working out there I’m already beginning to feel stronger. It’s a really fun gym to work out in with great vibes and good banter. Good culture of encouragement from other people in the gym also. There’s never a boring session!

Fantastic experience: Antoni works really closely with clients. I’d never lifted with kettle Bells before and he took me through technique so it was easy to understand and so I wouldn’t hurt myself. I really enjoy the family atmosphere in the gym and the shared PT format. This format means that the gym is never crowded. If you’re looking to get leaner and stronger, this is a great gym to join.

Fantastic experience: Come for the work out, stay for the banter Excellent place to come a train. Focuses on creating a healthy, safe and fun environment. Good people, good tunes, lots of laughs and great way to become your best you.

Fantastic experience: After trolling every fitness fad in manly, I finally found 100strong! Killer workout, awesome company, small group and a knowledgeable no nonsense personal trainer! Quality tunes too Highly recommend- it’s a different kind of training!

Fantastic experience: Been there for 4 years, religiously once a week, very happy with my progress. Antoni is a dedicated and fun trainer, who really pushes you to do the last bits when you think you can't anymore.

Fantastic experience: 100Strong is a fun little workout play ground. Antoni the trainer has really high enthusiasm for teaching his skills and pashion of the kettle bells and has some super fun and addictive exercise programs. I Absolutely love it

Fantastic experience: I have been a member in 100Strong for two months and I cannot recommend the place highly enough. I've seen significant improvements in both strength and fitness, while learning a new way to train. Antoni is a great combination of teacher, motivator, philosopher and jester! Focused while training and a banter merchant between sets. It's a great place, full of great people. I genuinely look forward to going training each morning.

Fantastic experience: With both small group classes and individual training, Antoni is a trainer who goes the extra distance to instruct his clients. His gym is a friendly space with good vibes. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Very personalised and unique classes. Antoni you are the best!

Fantastic experience: Couldn't be more what I needed! Antoni knows his stuff and is excellent at perfecting your technique

Fantastic experience: Antoni is doing a fabulous job at 100Strong. Loving his approach to teaching strength and kettlebell training!

Fantastic experience: Best place I've ever trained - amazing atmosphere that accommodates all skill levels and sporting interests

Fantastic experience: Antoni's squat training helped my vertical

Fantastic experience: 100Strong is more than just a gym with kettlebells. It's a place to build to build strong bodies as it is to build a strong mild and spirit. A place where you can be yourself, non-apologetically, and where you can grow to become the strongest version of yourself.

Fantastic experience: Incredible bang-for-buck in both physical fitness benefits and value for money. Great place to train for those looking to compete in the kettlebell sport or just train for life in general.

Fantastic experience: Best training to help with balance and endurance for surfing!

Fantastic experience: Basically the only place train. Get strong, go to flow and learn
