    Check around at Doherty's gyms.

    http://www.dohertysgym.com/
    You guys with the huge sponsor ads in your signatures make reading the forums annoying.

    hey man, any idea what part of Melbourne you going to be living/working?

    I moved here a few weeks ago. Still havent settled in a gym yet, just been doing week trials to suss them out, 2 left to try, stay away from "fitness first" gyms and "genesis" gyms for sure. Dumbells dont go high enough and there is zero athmosphere!

    Where are you from?

    Sammy Ioannidis has a gym in Melbourne and Coaches/PT's.
    I have trained at his gym, it has kilos and pounds and lots of equipment!

    As GirlyMuscle said, there are a lot of guys at Dohertys Gym that can help you.

    Also, you could check out Eyad at Next Level Fitness. He's a very popular Melborune prep coach. http://www.localfitness.com.au/next-...ess-noble-park

    Hey don't forget about Sammy! He still looks Incredible and has a ton of experience, as well as being a super down to earth incredibly nice (and a little bit hot, hehe) guy....
    I am pushing for Sammy, as if I was going to move back to Melbourne then he would be my choice as a coach/pt!

    Eyad has coached many of the top Australian Amateurs to titles.

    The amazing thing is that Abe became a monster all on his lonesome - no guru, no trainer, no contests..

    Eyad is an amazing trainer however, and easily one of the country's best. I've seen him work wonders on some pretty advanced guys. He's a great guy with a very loyal following. I recommend at least going in and meeting him.

    Sounds great, I would be stupid if I chose not meeting him
