I look forward to my sessions at Vision because of the personal Program that the trainers have worked out for me. I don’t get a standard one size fits all but one that changes as my needs change. All the trainers but especially Hayden are enthusiastic, knowledgeable and professional. At the end of each session, I feel energised, stronger and better prepared to take on the day. More...

Vision, St Ives has been a game changer for me! The staff are friendly, the environment is welcoming, particularly for someone who hasn't been to the gym in years and felt pretty nervous restarting my fitness journey. Hayden is an incredible trainer. I have a few injuries that really require a tailored approach, and Hayden goes above and beyond to help me work with my restrictions, whilst also pushing me hard enough to see a real transformation in my body. I am feeling stronger, and way more conscious of muscle function and form. If you want a gym that is 💯 client focused, friendly, kind and educational, then I highly recommend Hayden, Christian and the team at Vision, St Ives! More...

Trained here for just over a year with Hayden, and it was hands down one of the best gym experiences I’ve had.

Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great place to train! More...

It was the best decision to join Vision St Ives 5 years ago. Training regularly with Hayden has helped not only with my fitness but also self confidence. Before I had joined the Vision St Ives, I was afraid of going to the gym and train on my own. Now, I am actually excited about my every session. All the trainers are extremely knowledgeable, friendly but also push you hard! Thank you, guys! More...

Great Gym with Amazing PT’s! I’ve been training here for a little while now and couldn’t be happier. The gym has a great atmosphere and solid equipment, but what really stands out is my personal trainer, Matt. He’s incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and really takes the time to personalise each session. Thanks to him, I’ve made noticeable progress much faster than I expected. Highly recommend! More...

Phenomenal experience working with my trainer Matt. Lost 5 kg in 8 weeks and couldn’t have done it without his constant motivation, accountability and ongoing guidance with nutrition and training. I have tried working out in other gyms few times before - only this time I feel transformed; feels great to loose a couple of inches on my waistline 💪 More...

I have joined Vision St Ives about 6 weeks ago, it’s been a great experience all around with the lovely and professional staff but mostly my trainer Matt, he’s amazing, so caring and so professional, always making sure I am pushing myself enough but only within my limits, he listens and guides me as often as I need, I am so grateful for all he does, thank you Matt 🙏☺️

How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
At Vision Personal Training, we focus on holistic goals setting, measuring your results, creating your program and nutritional plan, then keeping you motivated and accountable each step of the way with one on one personal training sessions weekly.
We are so confident in getting your result, we guarantee it.
Follow your program entirely for the first 9 weeks and in the unlikely event you don't achieve your goal, not only will we give you your money back: We will train you for free until you do. That's our Vision Promise!
What’s the secret to getting the body of your dreams?
Well if there was one secret that fixed everything, everyone would already have that body!
If I were to highlight perhaps a few keys..
1) Believe it or not, exercising is the easy part - It's what happens in the kitchen that really counts!
2) Be realistic - I've seen it before: Setting a large goal with big swooping statements like 'I'm going to exercise every day', or I'm going to only eat clean food.
These huge goals are far too unrealistic and subconsciously we are setting ourselves up to fail. Instead, start small with achievable goals you can manage. Recognise that 200g weight loss per week is still 10kilos over a year. That's better than losing 10 kilos in a few months and putting 4 back on across the rest of the year!
3) Ever heard that saying, "You are who you spend your time with"?
Big shock, it's true! If you're goal is to become healthier, it's a wise move to encourage the people who are closest to you to start adopting healthier habits, too. In helping them, you're actually helping yourself!
Instead of meeting friends for lunch and eating out, meet them and catch up over a walk.
Try some small group training and you'll find lots of like-minded people for some social accountability.
What do you love most about your job?
I love that every day, I get to work with inspiring, healthy and motivated young trainers who encourage me to be my best.
I also love seeing our members transform - in so many ways. When a person loses 30 kilos - they are no longer the same person - ever again! It's the same when someone runs 10km for the first time, or finds they now have no more back pain, more strength, etc..
A stronger, healthier, fitter body has a transformative effect on both the body and the mind. That's my favourite part!
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have a degree in Communications, Theatre and Literature (go figure)
In my uni days I had 2 trainers across 6 years. I trained with my first trainer for 3 years. She had lost 80kg and looked amazing. It was like she was reborn - she was vibrant, outgoing and a people-magnet. She LOVED her job, I was so inspired and I wanted that!
I was hooked and loved Personal Training from the moment I started, back in 2010. I love every part of my job and naturally, that evolved into owning my own personal training business, where I train with and mentor other trainers, help them build careers, and by extension, make a bigger impact in the health and lives of our community here in St Ives.
Why should our clients choose you?
Experience and community. We are the longest-standing Personal Training Gym in St Ives and have created a positive impact on literally thousands of people in our community over the years. Please check out or Google Reviews for real testimonies of what it's like being a member with VPT St Ives!
We are not your notmal gym.
Our members love us, because it's a safe, clean, bright, unintimidating environment for them to work out with their trainer, without a trainer or in our fun group exercise sessions.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
Yes, we can. Our trainers are experienced in providing challenging One on One live Personal Training Sessions over Zoom.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
Being a private personal training studio we have the upfront advantage of far less "foot traffic" through our doors than your traditional gym or 24-hour gym.
Your safety is, of course, a priority. Our equipment is frequently cleaned and rostered.
We have sanitiser wipes for when people have finished with equipment and hand sanitisers placed around the studio for ease of use.
Personal Training
One on one Personal Training specialising in resistance training, cardio vascular fitness and boxing for fitness.
Some of our trainers also have highly specialised boxing and bodybuilding skills.
Goals Setting
We take care in sitting down with you to map out your goals and priorities, realistic time frames and what it would take to get you there. We then continue to measure your progress and help keep you motivated as your goals inevitably change and evolve over time.
Body Composition Analysis
We have our own in-house body composition machine, called an Evolt 360, which uses Bioimpedance Analysis.
This means a small electrical signal is transported through the body and back to the machine, allowing for a highly accurate snapshot of how much and where your muscle and body fat distribution is spread through your body. We conduct these scans with our members every two months to ensure measured and sustained progress.
Personalised Nutrition Coaching
At least 70% of your result is going to come from food! Whether your goal is fat loss, toning, building muscle or improving your cardiovascular fitness - If food is fuel, then you have know what and how to fuel your body for best, fastest and most sustained results.
We look at each member's individual body type, body composition, goal, time frame and activity level, then we create a food plan with you.
No printouts, no cookie-cutter approach. Just you and your trainer creating a healthy plan together that they will keep you accountable to each step of the way.
Group Training
Exercise is more fun when you're training with friends!
To complement your regular Personal Training Sessions, members have unlimited access to our weekly Group Training classes.
You won't get lost in the crowd with our Group Training classes. We keep them small so you have more attention from our trainers who lead them. With a great variety and likeminded members around you, Group Training is a great way to increase your fitness.
Seminars and Workshops
We host monthly seminars and workshops. Each year, we host a myriad of events for you to get involved in. Whether it is a seminar on nutrition, mindset or exercise - or something a bit more hands-on and interactive, like a mobility or running workshop or cooking demonstration. We like to keep our members engaged and always learning!
Nutritional Shopping Tours
We host monthly shopping tours - Yes, that's right!
Each month we take a small group of members through Coles in St Ives to help educate our members on best food practices according to their goals, how to read food labels and what to be aware of with companies' marketing strategies, appropriate portion sizes etc..
We encourage our members to bring family members like spouses, because if Mums and Dads are healthier, so are the families!
