Fantastic experience: The best community to be a part of! To the difference in classes each and everyday, the focus of technique in Strength training rather than the pace and the targeted heart rates when a Cardio focus, rather than an expectation to exceed your limits.

Rami Delana 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: These guys are amazing! I have been a member with BFT Ballarat South for 3 months, and the support I have had from the team to push me to my limits is incredible! I have tried normal gyms in the past. I have trained by myself, with a gym buddy and even hired a PT at the gym. But it never stuck. Until I tried this. You have constant support from the PTs there, and even other members are always willing to help you out. If you want to change your life style and feel like going to a normal gym is hard, then try BFT Ballarat South! You will be surprised how quick your life can change! Well done to everyone at BFT Ballarat South staff and all members, you are smashing it out there!

BFT Ballarat South

We are so stoked that we have been able to support you with sticking to your lifestyle changes Rami, you're making big gains in the gym now and its a testament to you consistently showing up, taking feedback on board and training to the best of your ability. Love it!!
