I've had buckets of personal trainers over the years but Peter is absolutely exceptional. I'm a doctor so I feel obliged to take my own fitness seriously, since I should practice what I preach. I had been doing alright for a while, but then my weight was creeping up over the years, I'd stopped running and cycling, and I wasn't getting anywhere with weight loss.
Peter got me on track and I dropped 18kg working with him. I'm back fitting into my old clothes. But I'm also stronger and he's the first personal trainer who has ever managed to get my deadlift form to feel good. So many times, he has

I am a professional in my early 40's - I was fit and was regularly running and swimming and doing triathlons, but I wasn't able to make changes to my body composition. I exercised and ate well, but as a vegetarian I struggled to get enough protein and I didn't really know what I was doing in regards to food. I had the added obstacle of a bad back, which used to flare up regularly and after surgery I was not supposed to lift over 18kg. I wanted to build muscle and reduce fat, but had no idea how to do that as a vegetarian with back issues. I hadn't used a trainer or coach before, but did some searching

Peter is an exceptional personal trainer and mentor. He is very data driven and evidence based which has proven to be both effective and enlightening for me. I wouldn't know where I would be without his guidance. I now feel confident about what to eat and how to track it. Now I am watching the results take care of themselves.

Ive been working with Peter for more than 2 years and Ive found him to be the most professional and systematic PT Ive ever had. His thorough approach to data collection when charting my weekly progress has been instrumental in helping me to remain consistent with my nutrition and fitness goals. He has been positive and encouraging throughout my journey and his knowledge is second to none. I would recommend him to anyone who is serious about getting healthy.

100g at 60 led me to Peter Nguyen. Testimonials on Peters website convinced me to give fitness one more go. What he offered was a program unique to me and adaptable as my fitness and weight loss progressed. And so many choices particularly with food and drink. In fact nothing seems to be off limits. Early results have motivated accelerated take up - but decisions have always been mine. Peter is incredibly personable and engaging in his approach and is great fun to train with. His strong personal values and genuine commitment to his clients mean he wants us to be the best we can be. So 10
