Don’t hesitate don’t wait another day message him and join an amazing community of people on a successful journey led by an amazing coach who has the answers.

Fantastic experience: Shannon has been a wonderful coach for me over the past 16 weeks. With so many online calculators for your calories and macros it was too overwhelming and confusing to know exactly what would suit best for me. Shannon’s approach is so straightforward and easy to follow. I really appreciate how Shannon individually reviews how the week has gone for each of his clients and suggests tweaks to ensure we are on the right track. Thank you for all your support in helping me achieve my goals!

Fantastic experience: Shannon excels at simplifying and individualizing the weight-loss/muscle gain process. He is encouraging and supportive, and I have found success when I have followed his program (which is sustainable and not extreme). Shannon also sticks to proven methods that center on nutrition, strength-training, steps, and sleep. I am grateful to have discovered him!

Fantastic experience: Shannon has helped me for a positive relationship with food as well as created a program that is so easy to follow for a busy mum like me! I’ve lost 9kg in just under 12 weeks and went from a size 14-16 to a size 10-12! I’ll definitely continue using his program and tools until I reach my goal and beyond! 10/10 would recommend Shannon for your weight loss and health journey!

Fantastic experience: Highly recommend. I started Shannon’s program 12 weeks ago. It is simple to follow. I have lost 12 kg in that time resulting in a big improvement in my health. Shannon always responds to my questions quickly and provides great advice and is very knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience: Shannon has completely transformed my life by giving me the tools to lose my weight. He is worth every dollar spent and I would have no hesitation in doing another program with him as I have never felt or been slimmer and healthier in a very long time. 5 stars all the way!! Thank you

Fantastic experience: I've really enjoyed my coaching experience with Shannon! As a coach myself, I understand the huge advantage you have when you have a coach. The accountability and a fresh approach can really accelerate your goals and choosing Shannon to help with the next stage of my body re-comp was a great decision. I've made great progress in 8 weeks. 10cms off my waist and scale weight reduced from 72.9 to 66.1 - 6.9kgs. This included 6 weeks at a rapid fat loss deficit, a holiday week and a couple of weeks at a more moderate deficit. I thoroughly enjoyed my time working with Shannon. His simple yet pragmatic approach works so well that you just want to get on with the job. His relaxed easy going nature also made it way more enjoyable than the more inflexible experiences I've had. From the beginning, all the information I needed to get started was clear and organised and Shannon's resources were really helpful. I wasn't sure how I'd go with the rapid protocol weeks but to be honest with Shannon coaching me through, it felt like a breeze. When you reduce the emotion, it's much easier to just get on with the job! With Christmas on the horizon, I'm planning to continue making progress whilst still enjoying my favourite foods. This tells me my mindset and my confidence in my ability to get the job done is exactly where it needs to be. Thanks for all of your help Shannon, its been a great coaching experience!

Fantastic experience: I have done Shannon’s Lean in 6 challenge in the past and this really worked for me. I found his knowledge a huge help. I've tried all sorts of 'diets' however, his approach to weight loss was easy to follow. After some major life upsets I gained quite a few kilos and needed accountability. I signed up for Shannon's 1 to 1 and haven't looked back. Just knowing he is there keeps me accountable and his advice works for me. I am grateful for his support and his programme works. I'm losing weight and learning how to keep it off.

Fantastic experience: Shannon has been great for me, I was recovering from a knee injury and reached out to Shannon to help in recovery and build up muscles near the injury, as well help in weight loss. Following the guidance of Shannon as a PT my injury recovered well and was able to regain strength and build up relevant muscles which reduced pain from the injury. Also following the weight loss program I lost 12kgs in 12 weeks, throughout the process Shannon was great with guidance and general support, could not have asked for any more, would highly recommend to anyone, especially those who have tried many weight loss programs where they have not worked.

Fantastic experience: I am incredibly grateful for stumbling upon Shannon Billows. Let me tell you, as someone who struggled with weight loss, Shannon's coaching has truly been a game-changer for me. With his guidance, I've managed to shed a significant amount of weight! But you know what? It's not just about the numbers. I've also gained this newfound confidence in my ability to take charge of my health and well-being. Shannon's approach is really one-of-a-kind. It's not just about physical fitness for him, he also incorporates valuable nutritional guidance into his coaching. You can tell he's an expert in these areas, but what sets him apart is his personalised approach. He took the time to understand my specific needs and goals, and created a tailored program that was just right for me. One thing I really appreciate about Shannon is how he's always been there for me, supporting and motivating me without fail. No matter how tough things got, he never stopped giving me words of encouragement. And whenever I achieved something, big or small, he was right there celebrating with me.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Shannon for a number of years now and I would not be where I am today without him. He’s been super supportive and helped me shift my mindset to be successful with my health and fitness goals. Shannon’s approach is no frills and methodical which comes from his wealth of knowledge and years of experience. Highly recommend Shannon as a coach!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working out with Shannon for about two years now, and honestly, he’s been awesome. I’ve dropped a massive 30 kilograms with his help, and I couldn’t be happier. Shannon’s workouts, his constant encouragement, and his nutrition tips have made all the difference. Thanks, Shannon!

Negative experience: Trigger warning: B*limia Whilst Shannon is highly knowledgeable and has no doubt helped many people lose weight, I, unfortunately, regret investing considerable money into his service for four reasons: 1. I was accepted as a client despite disclosing my struggles with B*limia (which is binge eating alternating with calorie restriction/calorie p*rging), without a medical clearance or, at the very least, further enquiry about my eating disorder and whether embarking on a restrictive diet would be conducive to my health and ED, 2. I was provided very low calories to eat every day, despite already being within a healthy weight range and despite, as mentioned, actively struggling with B*limia, 3. Upon prematurely pulling out of his program to focus on my ED recovery, I was met with little to no compassion, even after raising my concerns about his service with him. A partial refund would've been really professional considering he shouldn't have accepted me as a client in the first place and considering how early I pulled out, but he was very quick to say goodbye. In my experience, he is kind and personable when you work one-on-one with him but rather dismissive if you challenge him on any level, and 4. I found Shannon via TikTok because I was actively searching for ways to eat 1,000-1,200 calories a day to lose weight rapidly, and these videos (he has posted countless videos with the same sentiment for a long time) are distributed to the public with little to no disclaimers or trigger warnings. According to the comment section on his videos, I am not the only person who disagrees with his repetitive promotion of potentially dangerous ways of eating to the general public, especially on a social media platform like TikTok where millions of young and impressionable people are susceptible to being negatively influenced and affected by such content. I personally will not ever invest in another weight loss coach or service for obvious reasons, but if you are seeking a weight loss coach in Australia, then please be aware that there are coaches, weight loss services and nutrition/fitness programs that promote healthier and more evidence-based approaches to diet and long-term weight maintenance, and that do not contribute anywhere near as much to the increasing rates of eating d*sorders or prevalence of yoyo dieting. EDIT [27.10.2023] -- response to Shannon as I am unsure how to comment back: * Shannon has blocked me on every social media platform so I unfortunately cannot retrieve our conversations and thus cannot prove that he indeed knew I was struggling with bulimia whilst working with me as a client * I want to emphasise that I did not make any meaningful "progress" with Shannon because I was actively binging and purging whilst working with him -- the suggestion that I made weekly progress is a wild exaggeration * I did not request any additional services from Shannon free of charge... WHAT? I exited the program early after having paid for a whole month! The our conversations ceased very shortly after. This is a blatant lie...? * Shannon's delayed response to my review was prompted by a TikTok I made yesterday which may gain some traction, so his 8-month late response is merely damage control Shannon, you could have just apologised from the beginning and offered a partial refund. You have spent so much energy defending yourself when you could just accept responsibility as a business owner. Your actions have been reprehensible and I hope my TikTok highlighting this case gains more views because people need to be aware of dangerous money hungry weight-loss coaches like yourself. You are part of a much bigger problem, and you will never see it this way, but I have faith that other people do (you are not that popular online already for a reason!) I sincerely hope that you do not put anybody else through this.

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Shannon in person for nearly 2 years twice a week. In the first 9 months I dropped 13 kilos and since then have fluctuated a few kilos here and there but have kept the majority of it off as he keeps me constantly accountable with my calorie intake. Shannon is very knowledgeable in his area and helps me with injuries and nutrition advice. If you want Shannon to tell you what you want to hear, he is not for you, but if you want honesty and shed the kilos and cm's, you are in the right place. Can't recommend him highly enough.

Fantastic experience: I have had the privilege of working with Shannon as my personal trainer for nearly a year. From our initial consultation, it was clear that Shannon possesses a deep understanding of personal fitness, nutrition, and the tailored approach needed to meet individual goals. His professional demeanour, coupled with a motivational attitude, has been instrumental in guiding me through this part of my transformative journey towards better health and fitness. Shannon's adeptness at creating balanced workout regimes that cater to my evolving personal needs and limitations has fostered not only physical growth, but also my general gym IQ. His emphasis on correct form and safe practices ensures a beneficial and injury-free training environment. Moreover, Shannon's nutrition advice has been invaluable, providing a clear path towards maintaining a healthy lifestyle outside of our training sessions. What sets Shannon apart is his genuine interest in my progress and the fact that I never felt judged but always feel challenged to be the best version of myself. His commitment is showcased through his consistent follow-ups, adaptations to my training program to keep it engaging and effective, and his availability to answer any queries I have, no matter how minor. The progress I have witnessed in myself is a testament to Shannon's expertise and supportive guidance. I would highly recommend Shannon to anyone seeking a personal trainer who is committed to delivering real, achievable results in a professional and comfortable environment.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing guidance and support from Shannon, and the program absolutely works .

Fantastic experience: I joined Shannon as a 1 to 1 client last year after completing a Lean in 6 program. It has been the best decision I have ever made!! I find Shannon offers an informative, helpful and sensible approach to weight loss. I have lost 18kgs in a year and I'm on the home stretch to lose the last 12kgs. Weight loss is hard and there are times I struggle and feel unmotivated but Shannon always provides support and advice no matter how good or bad a week I have had. The most impressive part of Shannons program (as I have tried other weight loss programs) is his constant and reliable weekly check in. If you're undecided on taking up the challenge to get rid of those excess kilos and change your life for healthiness and happiness, then Shannon won't disappoint! You will lose weight if you follow Shannon's program! It works!!!!

Fantastic experience: Although we are on different continents, Shannon is a fabulous online coach. Ready and willing to answer in depth any questions and always offered tips or explanations to propel me forward with my weight loss. In my opinion, Shannon is one of the best coaches out there. If you’re serious about losing weight and getting fit, Shannon should be your go-to coach!

Fantastic experience: As someone who has tenure in both diet and exercise, I can sincerely say that Shannon is by far one the best coaches out there. It is clear this isn't just a job to him. He is as invested in your health as you are, and has the knowledge and experience to back it up. I have received help from Shannon over the years in various ways, whether it be casual online coaching to full on PT, or just checking in every now and then to talk about goals, performance, or something as simple as form check. He can be no frills and down the line, but has a diversified enough approach that he can be as intensive as you want him to be - all the whilst sticking to logical and achievable mantras on health, diet, and exercise. Most reviews are stellar, and those that aren't - I'd put my money on them being the issue. Shannon won't tell you what you want to hear. He will tell you what you need to hear (albeit with a smile and hug).

Fantastic experience: I joined Shannon’s online 6 week challenge. I found his support and knowledge a huge help. He had a simple approach to weight loss and was easy to follow. Shannon always made time to answer any questions, concerns and gave me so much encouragement. Even when I had days that I struggled. The Facebook group he had was great too as others would share their experiences and we all kept each other motivated. After the 6 weeks I continued one on one as I felt training every week with Shannon gave me accountability. I couldn’t have lost without his help and support. Thanks Shannon!!!

Fantastic experience: Shannon is a knowledgeable PT who listens carefully to what your goals are and helps you achieve them. He will motivate you, share experiences and give you the skills to be able to meet your goal. I highly recommend Shannon for anyone wanting to learn more about Heath/fitness and the world of weight loss.
