READ OUR AMAZING REVIEWS
“Such an amazing gym! Started around 6 months ago for the 6 week challenge, and still getting such good results each week! Strongest I have ever been! The trainers and sessions are so awesome and made heaps of good friends. Absolutely love it and would and have 10/10 recommended it to others!! Also accountability part is awesome, not like a normal gym where they don’t care if you come or not. They are just as invested in your fitness journey as you are!!”

“Just completed the 6 week challenge with HIIT45 and loved it! I’ve never really been to the gym or done any classes before so was an absolute newbie but felt supported and had lots of fun. I found the early class times fantastic as a busy working mum of two – I could be done and home by 6.20 ready to “start” the day. The training is tough but doable. HIIT45 has increased my overall fitness, made me stronger, and feel so much healthier and energetic!”
