Fortitude Barbell

Brisbane’s Premier Private Personal Training & Powerlifting Gym

We don’t have to tell you that everyone is different. From training history and work-life balance to lifestyle and goals, we’re all unique. That’s why you won’t find any one-size-fits-all training routines at our gym in Fortitude Valley.

All our coaches are fitness specialists and are passionate about leading by example. They’ll take the time to get to know you. Because by understanding what you’re seeking to achieve at the gym, we can be there to push you forwards when the going gets tough and to celebrate your successes.

Each of you has come from a different starting point, but we hope you’ll come together to share the same goal – to be the best version of yourself!
