Athletes Authority Melbourne

Fantastic experience: The whole experience we have had with AA has been super impressive. Right from the first phone call, I knew we were onto a good thing. Super professional, friendly, and empathetic staff whose knowledge of what they do far surpasses any other similar business we have had experience with. They don’t just treat the injury- they support the whole person and have created a wonderful supportive community for athletes. It’s rare to find a business who do what they do so well that you can’t think of a single thing they could do to improve the experience, but AA have achieved that. My son’s injury rehab has tracked amazingly, and he’s blitzed his milestones. I expect he’ll return to his sport fitter and stronger than ever. Special mention to physio Erin (Melbourne) who is just superb and no doubt key to how well my son has progressed. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: As a student Physio and practising PT, I really enjoy it here! The staff are great at what they do and they know their stuff! And being there for around 3 months, I have seen very good improvements and results for my sport which is track 200 & 400 metres. Equipment and facilities are top of the range as well!

Fantastic experience: My son joined Athletes Authority in February 2023 when we were looking for a conditioning and strength program for junior athletes. He loves the gym and looks forward to each session. Staff and fellow athletes are very friendly so it becomes a team where they cheer each other when they achieve their goals. He is much stronger now and more balanced in his swimming. We are setting up our son for success in the future and we believe AA will give him the advantage over his competitors later in life.Strongly recommend !

Fantastic experience: Unreal facility and facilitators. Highly recommend

Fantastic experience: My 14 year old son Thomas has been training with Athletes Authority for over a year, and the results have been outstanding. The tailored programs and support from the coaches have helped him improve his strength, conditioning and overall athletic performance. The team’s professionalism and attention to detail have been impressive. I highly recommend Athletes Authority for any young athlete looking to take their training to the next level.

Fantastic experience: AA has been such a great place to train over the last year. Coaches have been great and it’s a great environment to be around. Have seen a huge improvement in my on field performance and within the gym.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a rehab athelete with AA Melbourne since they opened in 2022. I can say with all my heart I mentally and physically would not have gotten through both my acl and Achilles rehab without the support of this gym. It’s become a second home and I cannot thank this place enough. The knowledge the coaches have and the time and effort they always put into every athlete here is amazing. Special shout out to Nathan Williams and ezzy for always being there and also Ian and Ebzy. Cannot forget about general coach dools This place has been the best investment I have ever made.

Fantastic experience: Great facilities and programs led by very knowledgeable coaches. My 12YO son has improved his performance a lot since he started the emerging athlete program a year ago. He enjoys very much going to his training sessions. I am very pleased and grateful to have found this program for my son.

Fantastic experience: AA has been awesome for me on the journey trying to level up my strength, speed and athleticism to reach the elite sides of my sport. The facilities are awesome in Melbourne and have all the equipment and space needed for people who want to upgrade themselves and turn into beasts. The 3 coaches (Nathan X2 and Ian) have always been very good coaches and mentors who always look to help when they can. Ian has particularly been the most help since he’s taken over my program, he has been able to adjust to what I need quickly and has everything ready by when I need it. Simply the GOAT Very stoked to have AA part of the journey and am excited to see how far we can go!

Fantastic experience: AA is an amazing and gold class facility! I’ve been at AA in Melbourne for just over a year and it’s been truly a massive life changing and transformative experience! This is a massive credit to the coaches (Nathan Williams, Nathan Ebenezer and Ian Kahui) as they have the utmost faith and hold you accountable to your goals! Thank you all for your unbelievable support and guidance so far, and I look forward to continuing!

Fantastic experience: AA has been excellent - I did not have the most straightforward rehab journey after 2 ankle surgeries and Erin was amazing with keeping me on track and figuring out different strategies to keep me progressing. The professionality and and care is always top shelf!

Fantastic experience: AA is a phenomenal gym to be a part of. It has great people, vibes and facilities! Nathan is an incredible coach and person, his helped me get back on track (pun intended) supporting me through the highs and lows of being an athlete. His coaching is the finest in the field. Big shout out to ebz and lan for being exceptional coaches and humans, their knowledge and coaching is unmatched. I would recommend AA for anyone wanting to develop themselves as an athlete.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of AA Melbourne for almost a year now and it has truly exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by the amazing staff, modern facilities and the welcoming atmosphere. All the staff that have or currently work for AA are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. A special shoutout to Nathan, one of the best Strength & Conditioning coaches I’ve had the pleasure to work with. His expertise, personalised approach, and unwavering support have been instrumental in helping me strive towards my fitness goals whilst battling a tough period of rehab. Nathan’s guidance, humour and professionalism has made every session productive and enjoyable, and he always caters to my individual needs with a smile on his face! What really sets AA apart is their commitment to creating a supportive community, and that you don't have to fit into a particular mould to come here, everyone from all walks of life and sports are welcomed. I have met some incredible friends and mentors throughout my time at AA who push you in the most supportive and genuine way. Overall, AA is more than just a place to work out, it is a community that supports you and your sporting ambitions. I highly recommend AA to anyone looking for a top-quality gym experience that compares to a professional and elite sports setting.

Fantastic experience: Atheletes Authority have been best help throughout my ACL rehab

Fantastic experience: Nick Ragg is the best physio so professional and knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience: The best in the business, a place that genuinely cares about your growth as an athlete!

Fantastic experience: Could not recommend this place enough!!!! I did my ACL in January and decided to go with AA for my rehab. It has been the best journey I could of asked for, this place turned a negative injury/experience into a positive one. The team are incredible, so helpful and experienced. I could have never got this far without them, I look forward to staying with them for a lot longer!

Fantastic experience: I, Sasha, was at AA for over a year and my experience with the team was great. The atmosphere in the gym is always positive with lots of equipment and the PT's are around the gym which are always extremely helpful and supportive. Having lots of knowledge, the AA team was always happy to assist when I was in need. My trainer would always check up on me and made me feel like I really belonged to the AA community. AA has a really strong mastery and understanding in exercise science which really benefited my experience, and my programmes were made specifically to what I was intended to work on. I highly recommend this place. Thanks guys, you are awesome!!!

Fantastic experience: Joined AA Melbourne when they first arrived in Melbourne and I couldn't recommend them enough. Perfectly encapsulates the word "Elite" with their coaching practices, exercise programming and testing protocols and makes you feel as though you are a top-level athlete everyday! Couldn't recommend them enough!

Fantastic experience: Such an amazing gym for all athletes, such high quality coaches and people. highly recommend giving it a go!

Fantastic experience: I joined Athletes Authority in early March , and I couldn't be happier with my decision. They have exceeded my expectations in every way. The trainers are incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, helping me get the absolute best out of myself. They have been able to take me from no sport and two hip surgeries to being back out doing what I love and I couldn’t be more thankful. Fantastic place with a great vibe and not going anywhere.

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend this place enough, from the structure and detail of their programs, their facilities, their team, EVERYTHING! They are a credit to themselves, the amount of time and effort they put into it is incredible. You will go a long way to find a better and more professional set up than this place!

Fantastic experience: Very Intelligent coaches who look after there athletes

Fantastic experience: The place I wish I found 15 years ago. All the coaches, physiotherapists and staff are passionate, knowledgeable and actually care about you and your goals. If you want to reach your athletic potential then I definitely recommend these guys here at AA.

Fantastic experience: AA in Melbourne is unreal, and is unmatched to any other gyms I have been too. The facilities within AA are incredible. Matt and Nath have really created an unbelievable atmosphere and they both just want the best out of all their athletes. I am loving it AA, it has allowed me to become better on the field but also off. With the experience Nath brings to the gym is unbelievable. He has top notch acknowledge, and genuinely cares about his athletes. The programs are set up for each individual athlete, this allows to get the best out of everyone. But the people within AA in Melbourne make training 100 x better.

Fantastic experience: I joined Athletes Authority when it first open last year and haven't wanted to leave since. The dedication and quality from the staff that they put into each athlete are amazing. They are always pushing me to my limits and to help me reach my goals. My overall strength and ability to play footy has improved immaculately this year and I'm excited to see what else is in store for the future whilst training at Athletes Authority. I couldn't recommend this gym enough to anyone with any ability who wants to achieve their goals on or off the field.

Fantastic experience: Joining Athletes Authority was genuinely one of the best decisions I could have made almost 12 months ago. The expertise and professionalism the staff have, while still keeping the environment fun and inclusive is like nothing else. The support and patience the team have is amazing, everything is personalised for you and your sport, and the team help you stay accountable to reach the goals you set. I feel so much more confident and prepared going into a season after training at AA. If you want an environment and people that are going to help you succeed, AA is the place to be.

Fantastic experience: Had the opportunity to attend Melbourne’s First Coach Immersion Program (CIP) with Athletes Authority and was absolutely blown away by the immense value provided by the team. Very knowledgeable practitioners and even better people. A great place for both coaches to learn and athletes to thrive.

Fantastic experience: As a professional athlete, Athletes Authority - Melbourne is one of the best workout facilities I’ve ever been to. The coaches, the atmosphere, the facility and equipment as well as the workout programming were all top class. I would highly recommend them to any athlete looking to improve their overall strength, maintain or develop healthy fitness habits and work to prevent injuries.

Fantastic experience: Stoked to have joined the new Athletes Authority facility in Melbourne, VIC to support me in all my S&C needs for competing in triathlons. Exactly what I'm after with the level of support, expertise and professionalism these guys show on the daily. From carefully and accurately designed objective performance testing assessments, to tailored S&C programs and solid recovery protocols, these guys are leaders in the industry. Huge shout out to my coach Nathan Williams on his consistent advice and diligent care he has not just for my athletic journey, but for all athletes that walk through those doors. His knowledge is second to none! Hit these guys up for any S&C, high performance, recovery needs!

Fantastic experience: ATHLETES AUTHORITY is number one in the game! I’ve been working with AA for a few months now, having trained under one of their senior coaches prior and couldn’t be more grateful for their dedication, knowledge and genuine athlete development experience. The amount of time taken to assess and understand the athlete is second to none, with individualised programs targeting athlete sport-specific development as well as rehabilitation just shows how committed Athletes Authority is to their athletes. The gym and equipment is unreal, with all the essential training and recovery tools to reach your goals. I couldn’t recommend AA enough if you’re looking to take your performance to a new level!

Fantastic experience: After recently joining athletes authority in melbourne i can confidently say that this space is like no other! As an athlete trying to level up my performance, AA provides such valuable knowledge and expertise in sport mechanics and strength training to effectively tailor a program (gym and field specific) to enhance my individual goals and help me become the strongest athlete possible. Adding on, the environment established by the coaches at AA is unmatched. Nathan and Mat put in immense efforts to better their crew and have created such a positive and energetic vibe in the gym with never ending support and fun alongside training. This has made AA feel like another home and one big community of like-minded athletes across various sports. I can’t wait to continue working with the coaches at AA and see the team keep growing.

Fantastic experience: A great environment at the Melbourne branch with awesome staff and athletes putting in the hard work. Always a friendly vibe and great to train with.

Fantastic experience: Unbelievable coaches and even better athletes.

Fantastic experience: Amazing place, has the ideal set up for any athlete and the coaches to match

Fantastic experience: Great gym and incredible coaches!!

Fantastic experience: Been training out of AA Melbourne now for the last 2 months, after follwing the brand for about 5 years. Unreal environment to train in, sick equipment, good people, the only downfall is some questionable music choices (Nath & Dools, i'm looking at you here). Really enjoying the systematic exposure to higher plyometric & variable resistance training rep/set schemes to what I've seen elsewhere. Excited to see how the numbers continue to climb across the rest of the season!

Fantastic experience: Athletes Authority were a key part of my end stage return to play following a shoulder reconstruction. Great facility, even better staff

Fantastic experience: By far the next best thing outside of a pro setting. A really welcoming and motivating environment that’s helped re-build confidence back into what my body can do and taken my performance up a level. Absolutely worth it.

Fantastic experience: After being plagued by injury in the 2022 season and doing what I felt was all the right things off the field, AA was my last drawcard. Being a coach myself I felt like I had left no stone unturned with my strength and conditioning but I kept getting repetitive hamstring and calf strains. I had followed AA for a long time and when they announced their Melbourne facility I wanted in immediately with the hopes of getting on top of these issues. From the first time I spoke with Nath, followed by the in depth pre testing, I knew I was making the right decision. The level of detail was exactly what I had been missing to really narrow down the root cause of my issues and setup up my training accordingly to overcome these. Fast forward 4 months and I’m in the best physical condition I have ever been. Strong, fast, powerful and robust heading in to the 2023 season! Training at the AA facility is great. All the staff are extremely supportive and push you to be the best athlete you can be and they are creating a strong community of athletes. They also have a go at being funny from time to time, not with any great success though… Thanks legends!

Fantastic experience: Athletes Authority’s Melbourne facility based in Moorabbin has been instrumental in my return to sport post surgery. The facility is decked out like a pro sport team hq, with both S&C + Physio’s present. It’s an ideal place for anyone looking to perform at their best or return to play post injury.

Fantastic experience: Couldn’t rate Athletes Authority (melbourne) highly enough. If you want to train like an athlete and take your desired sport to the next level this is the place to be, best coaches, best people and the best training/results.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely loving having AA in Melbourne. Since joining a few months ago, I’ve noticed immediate improvements in my training and overall strength. The whole team and environment is great and all so welcoming/knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience: I just want to start off by saying if you are looking to be trained like a professional athlete look no further than ATHLETES AUTHORITY! These guys are the real deal and very knowledgeable across all aspects of sports science and specific strength training. After starting gym for first time in my life early in 2022 i realised that i wanted to be more athletic as opposed to just building muscle mass. Sport is a big part of my life and i enjoy running,tennis,soccer & bicycle riding. The gym was starting to feel like a dead end with repetitive workouts and spending more time trying to find different things to workout then actually doing them. I felt lonely going to gym by myself all the time and not having a support circle within that environment had me feeling quite negative at times. I came across ATHLETES AUTHORITY on instagram and loved how much effort they put in to better there athletes and just the great energy+positive vibes they have in the gym. I am only 2 weeks in to my year training program with AA but i am so over the moon with the positiveness all the staff at the melbourne base have bought into my life, the support is unreal. The training programs are creative and very versatile. I love how AA has many things to offer besides the training. I also love the on field leg session which is to help your running mechanics, i have already noticed differences in my running pattern and distribution of force through the whole body. Recovery rooms, 24/7 access to gym, Support circle, Sauna. This place will literally become your 2nd home. If you are wanting to unlock your full athletic potential and become the strongest athlete possible look no further then ATHLETES AUTHORITY! Shoutout to Nathan, Nathan Benezer & Mat the support from you guys has been amazing thank you so much and looking forward to smashing out 2023 with the best

Fantastic experience: Athletes Authority offers unique and exceptional insights into sporting performance. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable and supportive. The programs and training space are second to none. They have definitely helped me enhance my netball game and I cannot wait to continue to work with them ahead of the upcoming season. Would highly recommend to any athlete seeking improvements!

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Matt Dooley at Athletes Authority since the announcement of the Melbourne facility a couple of months ago. The specific strength program designed for me has significantly improved my ability to deal with big ocean swells and tides which has improved my times and placings in major open water swimming competitions. I look forward to continuing to work with Matt at Athletes Authority to further improve my strength and swimming performance.

Fantastic experience: Training has been great Matt has identified my weaknesses and improvements I need to make to perform better. Learning a lot Also very fun and enjoyable

Fantastic experience: Been signed up for a few months now with AA. They are a super friendly and welcoming team with expert knowledge around sports mechanics and training that enables you to get the best out of your performance. In addition to this they have brand new & modern facilities kitted out with everything you can need from weight training to recovery including in an house physio. Certainly worth looking into further if you're considering taking your performance to the next level

Fantastic experience: I would say this is the best facility and services in Melbourne. With the best coaches, physiotherapy and even recovery, I wouldn’t recommend anywhere else if your an athlete and come to Athletes Authority!!!

Fantastic experience: Extremely professional, state of the art facility with recovery and Physiotherapy all in the one place.
