Testimonials & Pregnancy Testimonials:

I cannot believe how much of a difference going to the gym has made to my life. I watched my husband improve his well being for six months and decided to give it a go myself. Having a great fear of not being able to move the next day, I asked Matt to introduce me gently to exercise; given I had not done anything regularly for many years! In fact I was so skeptical that I would only last a few weeks, I only joined for three months. I've been so surprised with how I feel! I haven't suddenly become a twiggy, nor do I want to be, but for the first time in my life I actually look forward to exercising! I enjoy it so much, after the first three months I signed up for a year and I'm already three months into that! When I go walking now my pace is faster and I cannot begin to say how wonderful it is to be able to go for a decent walk and then go shopping without having to come home for a rest in between!

Hi my name is Elizabeth; I’m 76 years old and was one of the first members at FTPG
Health, Fitness and Rehabilitation Centre. I started here in March 2007 and have attended over 100 times since. Matt has helped me improve my quality of life through exercise and strengthening and I can know do things I haven’t been able to for years. Kneeling down and standing up when gardening used to be such a chore but no longer does it hamper me, I can get up and down when gardening as often as I like. My Back Feels Great! This place is great.

Hi my name is Nick; I’m 36 years old and started at FTPG Health 7 months ago. Since starting there my strength has improved allot and my body feels better than it did when I was in my 20’s. My muscles are bigger and stronger. I love it.

Hi Matt,
It is hard to believe but I have been coming to your gym for nearly a year (next month) and wondered if from next month I could sign up for a 12 month membership. When I first came to you I thought be best to just sign up for 3 months and see how I go and take it from there and now here it is almost 12 months down the track and my overall health and well being has never been better and it is thanks to you for setting up my programme and giving me lots of motivation along the way. Thanks so much Matt for what you are doing for not only myself and my son but for all the other current members - so greatly appreciated. Before I forget it was so nice to see my name up on the whiteboard - one doesn't see that in the larger gyms so a very nice and motivating idea.

Kind Regards
M. Lord

I have been with Fitness Edge Gym for a number of years and now with 2 children. They have been fantastic, providing me with general strengthening work, rehab after birth and exercises that helped my back, neck and legs during both pregnancies.  I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Matt gave me great confidence that I could exercise during pregnancy. I started seeing him at 8 weeks and worked with him 2 times a week until 38 weeks. 4 weeks after I gave birth to a beautiful healthy boy Matt helped me re train my tummy muscles and re-strengthen my low back.  Thanks.

I had no idea what to do and what not to do. Thanks to Sue at Functional Training I was able to remain active throughout my pregnancy. The flexibility exercises were great and easy to do absolutely anywhere, even at work. They even fixed my sore shoulders and neck.

I really believe that regularly doing your exercises helped me immensely throughout my pregnancy and labour and continues to be of benefit now that I'm a new mum. I am fitter and stronger than I was before I fell pregnant. I continue to do the exercises at home and love the simplicity.
Lizzy.
 
I found Matts pre-pregnancy conditioning classes to be extremely beneficial in preparing me for a positive natural labour and birth. His systematic way of strengthening and stretching my body was fantastic. We now have a happy and healthy 6lb 12oz baby girl.
Anna.
 
I went to Functional Training with sore neck and shoulders. Within 2 weeks the pain had resolved. I loved the way all the exercises were adaptable and could be done at home. This made it so much easier to find the time to do the work. Something they said really hit home for me, you only get out of it what you put in, like life and relationships, even being a mum. Thanks for your unique approach.
Susan.
 
My mobility and strength have improved enormously; I have more energy now and since the birth of my beautiful baby girl. I found my recovery was much quicker after Talia was born than when we had our first child. I feel much fitter and stronger.
Hannah.
 
Working in a comfortable environment with quality trainers who are positive and friendly who really understand the changes a woman’s body goes through throughout the different stages of pregnancy has been a fantastic. What I like the most about what the team at Functional Training  have been able to provide is a easy to follow structure which can be done at home or at the gym. I did a combination of both and I must say thank you for your support.
Ashley.
