Training Day Gym near Vermont South, Vic

Enter our driveway from Ferntree Gully Road near the Corner of Stud Road, into our 60 space car park. Tap your membership pass and be greeted by a friendly team member. You'll spend most of your heavy lifting days on the ground floor, hypertrophy and accessory work on the upper floor. Wave at a few familiar faces, say a hello or two. Now you're about to get in the zone!

The ground floor is a heaven for weightlifters, powerlifters, group training lovers, and functional athletes. Two turf tracks, 10 and 20 meters in length. 6 designated weightlifting platforms, 3 carpet surfaced powerlifting platforms, 3 competition spec combo racks, 10 cell squat rig with monkey bars in between. A group training section where we run our boxing and lifting classes, a yoga studio, showers and changeroom amentities, and a shop to top up your training supplies.

This floor is where we keep the common but neccesary stuff. Machines for every muscle group, 6 more bench press stations, dumbbells up to 70kg, cable stations, arms area, and a row of cardio machines facing the windows. We've kitted out this floor with some of the most reputable brands such as Nautilus, Hammer Strength and True Fitness. We've even got an elevator for you to avoid those post legday stairs.

All of our bench presses are Australian made and have spotter arms (not shown in the render), so you can feel safe during those quiet hours where spotters aren't easy to find. Most of our plate loaded machines are Hammer Strength branded, and pin loaded machines are Nautilus branded. We have a few pieces of specialty machines such as the Pendulum squat, the Glute drive, and the rarely seen Lateral Deltoid.

4 rows of dumbbells from 1kg all the way up to 70kg. We've learnt that it's actually not the equipment in this section that matters the most, but the space. We've ensured to leave enough space between the dumbbell racks and the benches so someone can return their weights while you're doing your dumbbell presses. The arms section is also separated and instead of filling the space with extra benches, we've left it empty. And we're 100% you will appreciate this on arms day.

On top of two big cable stations, we've added an extra tricep station on the end of each one, so you can still do your cable flies when someone just wants to use one end for tricep pushdowns. Apart of those cable stations, are also 2 lat pulldowns and 2 cable seated rows. Common but neccesary.

TRUE Fitness treadmills, with incline and decline functions. The usual Ellipticals, all kinds of bikes, and of course, the ultimate Stairmaster stair mills. Overlooking Ferntree Gully Road, you get reminded that you are in the gym making the progress that those people driving home are missing out on. Go you!

Sometimes you just need to hit something. These bags are here to keep you out of trouble. If that's not fun enough for you. Our Boxfit classes are the most popular classes we have. On top of this, the floor in this group training zone is designed to handle weight dumping. It comes in handy in our Barbell Fit and HIIT classes where you simply don't have the energy left to put the weights down softly. So you let the weights know how much you're hurting!

We can run a variety of classes in this room, from Yoga to High Intensity Interval Training. Take a look at the 'Classes' section to find out more. Two floor to ceiling windows in this room which looks out to Ferntree Gully Road. When classes are not running, this is another open training space for anything you want. Or just pose!

This is probably what Training Day is known for more than anything else. Yes we have the highly sought after Swedish made Eleiko Barbells out on the gym floor for members to use. If you're not familiar with what that is, a quick Google of their pricetags should indicate the cult. It doesn't stop there, Rogue powerlifting and weightlifting bars, Comp spec combo racks, and your favourite carpet surfaced deadlifting platforms that we have to resurface regularly... but we get it, because training is life!

For those who are asking: why are calibrated weight plates important? Here's your answer: A regular weight plate, (like the ones most health and fitness gyms use) can vary up to 300g in weight per plate. Sure, that doesn't sound like much, instead of bench pressing 20kg I'm doing 19.7kg. But let's now imagine you are lifting 5 plates per side, training for your first competition. In total, that's 3kg off the actual weight you think you're lifting. You head off to competition thinking you've done this weight before, and on the day, it doesn't move! Now you go searching for a gym with proper weight plates! We've saved you that painful experience.

Speed up recovery, detoxification, relax, burn more calories, increase collagen production, the list goes on. This is such a great method to aid your recovery, especially if you're training as hard as we think you are. If you haven't tried, or don't know what an infrared sauna is, don't miss out any longer. Our infrared sauna in Scoresby can be booked " HERE " on the website or phone us up.
