Our philosophy can be summed up in three simple principles:
SIMPLICITY.

DISCIPLINE.
We believe that making progress doesn't have to be complicated. You don't need to be an expert, train for three hours a day, or perform fancy exercises to achieve great results. If you focus on the fundamentals, train with intent, and
Our philosophy can be summed up in three simple principles:
SIMPLICITY.
QUALITY OVER QUANTITY.
DISCIPLINE.
We believe that making progress doesn't have to be complicated. You don't need to be an expert, train for three hours a day, or perform fancy exercises to achieve great results. If you focus on the fundamentals, train with intent, and remain consistent over time, you WILL make progress.
Of course, this is often easier said than done. Over the years, we've learned countless lessons through both our successes and failures, and we're excited to share those lessons with our clients to help make their journey a little smoother.
By purchasing any of our products, you will receive the Mental PT Training & Nutrition Blueprint, which outlines our training and nutrition philosophy in detail, helping you better understand the principles behind our approach.
GET TO KNOW US
Meet Ross
I grew up in Cape Town, South Africa, before moving to Australia 9 years ago. If there's one thing you'll quickly learn about me, it's that I have an endless supply of energy when it comes to the things I'm passionate about.
I've been obsessed with sport and exercise for as long as I can remember and have a very diverse background in both. Having tried just about every sport under the sun including competing in athletics at a semi-professional level, I've been fortunate enough to learn countless lessons through both success and failure.
Exercise has had an incredibly positive impact on my life, and I'm passionate about helping others experience those same benefits whilst achieving goals they once thought were out of reach.

• Bachelor of Science – The University of Melbourne

Meet Hudson
Born and raised in Melbourne, I’ve played sport for as long as I can remember. I grew up competing across a range of sports, with my greatest success coming in swimming and surf lifesaving.
I’ve experienced training at a high level, training purely for enjoyment, training for ultra-endurance events, and periods where training became less of a priority. Despite my passion for exercise, the periods of inactivity taught me the most and are a big part of why I wanted to become a coach.
I’ve seen firsthand how much exercise can contribute to someone’s life, and especially appreciate that the benefits extend far beyond physical health. Having experienced that side of exercise, I couldn’t think of anything better than helping other people experience it too.
Personal highlights:
- 70.3 IRONMAN (5:17)
- 10+ x Victorian Swimming State Champs
