We all know the hardest part of fitness isn’t the workout itself…it’s showing up. Whether you’re juggling work, kids, or just struggling to find motivation, staying consistent can be tough. But here’s the good news: you don’t have to do it alone.
At AB Health & Fitness in Tullamarine, small group training has become one of the most popular and effective ways for locals to stay on track. It combines the best parts of personal training… expert guidance and tailored workouts… with the fun and energy of training alongside others.
It’s not just about getting stronger or fitter. It’s about connection, accountability, and the simple truth we live by: Movement is Life.
What Is Small Group Training?
Small group training is a structured workout led by a qualified trainer, usually with 4–8 people in each session. It’s personal enough for the coach to give you feedback and adjust your form, but social enough to keep you motivated.
Unlike large fitness classes, you won’t get lost in the crowd. Each session focuses on your goals… whether that’s improving strength, building endurance, or just moving better day to day.
At AB Health & Fitness, our small group sessions include a mix of:
- Strength training: To build muscle and improve posture.
- Functional movements: To make everyday tasks easier.
- Cardio bursts: To boost heart health and burn energy.
- Mobility work: To improve flexibility and prevent injuries.
It’s everything your body needs, in a session designed to challenge you at your own pace.
Why Small Group Training Works
If you’ve ever tried to stick to a solo gym routine, you’ll know how easy it is to lose motivation. Small group training changes that.
Here’s why it works so well:
- Accountability: When you know others are showing up, you’re more likely to do the same.
- Support: Your trainer and teammates cheer you on every step of the way.
- Structure: You don’t have to plan your workouts — we do that for you.
- Fun: The energy of a group makes every session more enjoyable.
- Results: You’ll push harder and stay consistent, which means real progress over time.
There’s a real sense of community, especially here in Tullamarine and nearby suburbs like Keilor Park, Airport West, and Gladstone Park. Many of our members say their training group feels like family.. and that’s exactly what we love to hear.
Real Results, Real People
We’ve seen incredible transformations from locals who joined our small group sessions. Some came in wanting to lose weight, others to gain strength or confidence. But no matter their goal, they all found the same thing: a group that kept them going.
One member from Gladstone Park shared, “I never thought I’d enjoy group training, but now it’s the best part of my week. I’ve made friends, I feel stronger, and I’m finally sticking to a routine.”
That’s what small group training is about… consistency built through connection.
The Community Factor
At AB Health & Fitness, we believe fitness should feel personal, not intimidating. Our small group sessions are about belonging as much as they are about sweating.
You’ll find:
- Friendly, supportive trainers who know your name and your goals.
- A welcoming mix of ages, fitness levels, and backgrounds.
- Encouragement without pressure.. we focus on progress, not perfection.
And because we’re a local Tullamarine gym, you’ll often find familiar faces from Keilor Park, Westmeadows, and Airport West training together. It’s that strong local connection that makes AB Health & Fitness more than just a gym… it’s a community.
What to Expect in a Session
Each small group session lasts around 45–50 minutes. You’ll start with a warm-up, move into a structured workout (with strength, cardio, and core elements), then finish with stretching or mobility work.
Every movement can be scaled to your fitness level.. whether you’re just starting out or ready for something more challenging.
And unlike big commercial gyms, you’ll never feel like you’re on your own. Our trainers are there every session to guide your form, track your progress, and keep things fun.
Why It Fits Busy Lives
For many people in Melbourne’s north-west, time is the biggest barrier to fitness. Between work commutes, school runs, and weekend plans, it’s easy to put health on hold.
Small group training helps solve that by keeping things simple:
- Fixed session times make it easier to plan your week.
- Short, focused workouts deliver results without hours at the gym.
- Encouragement from others keeps you committed, even when motivation dips.
It’s fitness that fits into real life…and that’s what makes it so powerful.
Movement Is Life
At AB Health & Fitness, Movement is Life isn’t just a tagline… it’s what drives everything we do. Every time you show up, you’re doing something good for your body, mind, and community.
Small group training is more than exercise. It’s about moving well, feeling supported, and living better… together.
