This gym has helped me to transform my life. I have been a member for 3 years and the thing I LOVE about the entire team @Rubens is that I was as supported, encouraged, challenged and welcomed on my first day (when I could barely make it through a beginner’s yoga class) as I am today (when I can smash out a boxing class and do some extra training afterwards). @Rubens truly is a gym for EVERYONE. All shapes, all sizes, all fitness levels coming together to share laughter and energy as we improve our health. It feels more like a community centre than a gym – and that is a culture that has been consciously fostered by Ruben and his incredible team. The other tip I would offer is give personal training a try. I was always against personal training. For many years I had thought, “Why would I pay someone just to make me turn up? I know what I have to do – I just need to do it”. What I didn’t realise then is that PT is so much more than someone making you accountable for turning up. With personal training you get a tailored program to suit your goals, you get professional expertise to correct form and avoid/manage injuries and you get VARIETY! A trainer has the ability to introduce you to so many different movements and exercises that it never gets boring. I can honestly say that training twice a week with Tegan @Rubens has changed my life. The physical changes have been fantastic: I’ve lost 20kg and kept it off for 18 months. When I started I could barely do step ups onto a box and got out of breath walking on the treadmill. Now I can do 20 “on toes” push ups in a row, I can do box jumps, burpees, I can run 7km and I can deadlift 100kg. But the biggest gains I have made working with Tegan have been psychological. I now use exercise to manage stress. I have learnt the joy of challenging myself, failing and challenging myself again. I have gained the confidence to get out of my comfort zone both within the gym and outside of it. And all the time I have had the most amazing coach in my corner: supporting me, pushing me, challenging my assumptions, picking me up when I needed it, giving me a kick in the backside when I needed it, celebrating my victories and sharing lots of laughter and wisdom along the way. So come and join the @Rubens family – and give personal training a try! Bernadette

  My current gym. Love the atmosphere, equipment and people. Shout out to Ruben for knowing everyone's name and being incredibly welcoming. And Lachlan for being such a great trainer.

  Such an awesome gym! Ruben and the team are fantastic trainers, highly motivating and always pushing you to achieve your best result. I have also done the personal training sessions with Tegan and she definitely encourages and challenges me to achieve things I didn't know I could. @rubens is a great gym and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great to place to workout, make friends and have fun!!!

  The whole team @Ruben are working at my fitness level to improve my health. Highly recommend this gym to others looking to get fitter. Loving the spin classes - huge call out to Lauren who manages to bring a smile to my face though the workout (so much fun) & to Ruben for his encouragement & expertise. Wish I’d joined sooner. What are you waiting for?

  Thankyou @Rubens, I always feel welcome here. The staff are professional, down to earth, kind and very, very good at their jobs. I have enjoyed excellent classes with Tegan, Ruben and Lachlan. @Rubens is a small gym with enough machines so you dont have to wait. Always clean. For the introvert- they have group classes with all solo exercises here so if (like me) you prefer not to pair up, its a win here. Its more expensive than some gyms but for me its worth it as a treat. I drive 4 suburbs past a lot of other gyms to come here, I highly recommend.
