Vision Personal Training Marrickville

Fantastic experience: I've been training with Ben for over 1.5 years, and I can't recommend him highly enough. I came to him after years of severe shoulder arthritis and pain, trying to get back into lifting after a long break. His professionalism, passion, and deep knowledge of health and fitness have been absolutely fundamental in my journey. We train twice a week, and I'm now seeing better results than when I used to go to the gym five times a week on my own. Every session is tailored, safe, and effective, and he's helped me rebuild strength and confidence in ways I didn’t think were possible. If you're looking for a PT who truly understands how to work with your body and goals—especially if you're overcoming injury or limitations. Thank you Ben

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Paul for six months now and I’m overjoyed at the results I’m seeing in my body. My body fat has dropped, my muscle mass has increased and I’m loving my new shape. I was sitting on the fence about getting a personal trainer, and I’m so happy I did it. It’s an investment in my health and I’m reaping the rewards.

Fantastic experience: I've never been keen on what I thought of as 'gym culture'. Turns out, I just hadn't ever experienced a gym that really suited me - until Vision at Marrickville. There's no show-off-y competitive pervy posturing. Just regular people being supported to improve their health. My trainer Ben is attentive, particular, experienced and hard-working. He makes me want to do better. Paul the owner has always been welcoming and supportive. That's good culture in my book.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Vision Marrickville for its outstanding trainers and supportive environment. Since I started working with Ben earlier this year, he’s been instrumental in helping me achieve my fitness goals and manage chronic knee and elbow pain that I have had for many years now. Ben took the time to understand my history and tailored a program that has not only alleviated my pain but also significantly improved my strength, endurance, and overall fitness. His extensive knowledge of nutrition and exercise is evident in every session, and he takes a thoughtful, methodical approach to explaining each movement to ensure I perform it safely and effectively. Ben’s enthusiasm for fitness is contagious—he’s been amazing at keeping me motivated, and he’s always ready with tips, encouragement, and personalised advice that help me stay focused. Training with Ben has truly been a rewarding experience, and I look forward to every session. It's been a great year and I look forward to continuing my journey at Vision!

Fantastic experience: Trainer Ben N 10/10 Very tough and thorough trainer who makes a hard training session seem a little easier by explaining the movements and its benefits to great detail. Very professional and friendly, and I would highly recommend Ben if you'd like to see improvements and positive results. The whole team at marrickville and very friendly and welcoming.

Fantastic experience: The team at Vision Marrickville have been unreal; Paul was very helpful and welcoming when I first enquired about joining, and my trainer Ben has been terrific since our first session. He's a lovely dude, tough in all the right ways, and his expertise in the realm of fitness has been invaluable to not just getting results in my training but also understanding every aspect of how and why it's working. Coming here has been the best decision I've made for my physical health.

Fantastic experience: Joined the team at VPT Marrickville 6 months ago. I was introduced to personal trainer Ben, who has been guiding me through what has been a life changing journey. I was asked what my goal was and my reply was quite simple, lose some weight. What has transpired so far has been amazing. So far, it has resulted in a 17kg weight loss and strength has increased. Good habits have become a part of life. The guidance, support and knowledge Ben has given me has not only made this experience enjoyable but everything I have learnt is very sustainable. I throw a lot of questions at Ben ranging from why we do certain exercises to nutrition and everything is clearly explained. He is the ultimate professional whose passion and enthusiasm rubs off on you. He genuinely cares. Let’s keep going. Thank you Ben.

Fantastic experience: It's been one year since I joined Vision PT Marrickville, and I want to take this moment to celebrate my awesome trainer, Michelle Murphy, and the supportive community at the gym. Michelle has been a guiding light throughout my fitness journey, helping me lose weight, increase strength, return to running, and rehab various injuries. Her patience, generosity, and fun, personable approach have made all the difference. Fitness progress is rarely linear, but Michelle has a way of reassuring me that it's okay when I stumble, face obstacles, or get stuck in my head. She normalizes these challenges and keeps me on track, especially when I have a tendency to catastrophize setbacks. Even though I haven’t been perfect with my diet and exercise, her quiet, steady guidance has helped me lose over 30kg, drop three to four clothing sizes, achieve personal bests in my lifts, and run a 5km race—something I once thought was out of reach. Michelle truly goes above and beyond for her clients. When I mentioned my interest in running and signed up for a race, she not only signed up to support me but also encouraged other members to join in. She often extends my sessions if she has time, ensuring I get the most out of each workout. Despite the chaos of work and social commitments, she is always flexible and accommodating, making sure we fit in our sessions. The accountability I have to Michelle and my fellow classmates is what gets me to the gym on those days when I’m exhausted from work. I know I’ll always have fun and feel better afterward, and that consistency is what drives results. Consistency + effort = results. So, a heartfelt thank you to Michelle and the Vision crew for helping me achieve what I never thought possible a year ago.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training here for years first with Paul and then with Ben. The whole team is fantastic, but I would like to, in this review, make special mention of my training with Ben. When I started with Ben, my lower back pain was at its worst. And so Ben designed a new program that provides a full body workout with key exercises that build strength in the muscle groups that support the lower back. And over time, problems with my lower back faded and today, I simply do not have any lower back pain at all. I had been to doctors and physiotherapists for a year with no success. Anyone with lower back pain knows how difficult it is to live with. And while everyone’s situation is different and each person should seek professional medical advice as a first step, I can tell you, that Bens program has worked for me and I am extremely grateful. I should say that the Vision team always defer to the advice of your medical experts, and when I started with Ben, it was slow and steady and very careful and light training, working the muscles with close attention to movement and posture to avoid any stress on the back. But as my strength increased we started to build intensity into the training. Without question, Ben is an excellent personal trainer.

The other clients who also train are all in the same mindset and every body says hello to each other in passing which is a great perk of training at a small gym. I am loving my time at vision, these guys are the best :)
