“Hi, my name is Vic!
My humble Eastern European roots predisposed me to gymnastics, which I started at the age of 5. I fell in love with this sport. The balance, the strength, the somersaults; it had me enthralled. My form was strict but never perfect, and for this I was reprimanded. It was this that eventually lead me to seek alternatives. I wanted to move fast and to learn quickly, I wanted the adrenaline that I had become so addicted to. They say you need to learn the rules to break them; and having learned them I left behind all the ostentatious baggage, keeping only the most essential principles.
In the years that followed I had diversified my interests and had discovered other disciplines that I took up parallel to gymnastics. These included street workout/calisthenics, tricking, breakdance and yoga. In these new found interests I was no longer restricted by the strict code of gymnastics, and could explore movement with new-found liberty.
These new commitments helped me develop a strong intuition for movement, where through experimentation, I began to invent my own movement patterns and skills. To me, this became the most rewarding part of streetworkout/ calisthenics, where through creativity, I could come up with patterns of movement that perhaps, no one else in the world had yet discovered!”

Our Philosophy
Build your castle on the ruins of your obstacles.
Through our experience, empathy and knowledge; we will guide you to success. We do what we preach. We know that what we teach works because we do it ourselves, and have achieved enormous success. Our Melbourne-based personal trainers exert an aura of authority that stems from many years of experience in various disciplines of movement. In addition to this intuitive mastery of movement, each personal trainer possesses a relevant degree in science and nationally recognised fitness qualifications.
In training there are many factors that constitute success. Everyone is different. Therefore it’s essential to treat every case individually. In saying this, it is important to realise that there is a common lowest denominator. That is to say, it is essential that a strong foundation be laid out, especially when it comes to Street Workout.
Our philosophy surrounding success is four-fold: training, diet, sleep and state-of-mind. It is important to realise that these things are interconnected. It is not only the effort put into each individual determinant, but also the balance of them that holds significance for achieving results.

FAQs
Why Are We The Best Personal Trainers in Melbourne?
Street Workout St Kilda hires only the best of the best. Our personal trainers are all university qualified, with knowledge and experience to get you the results you need. We have no membership fee, and have the capacity to travel to you with our own equipment. We win on price, quality of trainers, convenience, and most importantly, results.
Want To Try Calisthenics Training But Not Quite Ready?
During the first session we can help determine whether you’re ready or not. In the case that you’re not we will provide training that will help develop the necessary components to get you there – whether that means weight loss or fundamental strength training.
As a way to get into shape as quickly as possible we highly recommend our Cardiovascular Training. Cardiovascular training (cardio) is a great way to smash out some exercise and is particularly accommodating to beginners. You will definitely break a sweat, but you’ll love yourself for it.
High intensity interval training (HIIT), also known as Tabata, is the current standard for cardiovascular training and is both the most efficient, and most effective cardiovascular regiment out there. Forget running for an entire hour to lose the caloric equivalent of a candy bar. It’s boring, ineffective and can damage yours knees in the long run.
The idea behind HIIT is that you do exercise for short bursts of high intensity (ideally anaerobically i.e. 85-100% of your heart rate max). There are many different exercises that can go into HIIT, but they are generally selected for their capacity to keep heart rate up. This means that HIIT style exercises can be different for different people based on individual fitness levels.
Why Hire Our Melbourne-based Personal Trainers?
Many among us are simply biomechanically illiterate. Even simple movements can be surprisingly technical – it’s important to have a second pair of eyes and a trainer’s expert opinion.
Motivation can run dry
A trainer is there to motivate you on your best days and your worst. They are there to back you and help you achieve your goals. Having a second person in your fitness journey can be incredibly rewarding – and can really push you over the line.
Injuries are virtually nullified by good trainers
Trainers are always watching, vigilant to prevent injury. Advanced exercises can be dangerous under certain circumstances and spotting can help prevent serious injury.
Enjoyment is what ultimately decides your lifestyle
Training can be fun. In fact, training should be fun. If it’s not fun, then you’re doing something very wrong. It’s unsurprising that many people that train alone are dissatisfied with their training. Often the grind is simply to push that extra plate or to run that extra mile – for many people these goals are not exactly exciting. Trainers can help make training fun and give diversity to your routine.
