About Eddie.

My name is Eddie, I’m a simple guy. What you see is what you get.

I decided to study at the age of 47 and do my PT course with AIPT. This is when my life lit up and changed for the better. I now own my house, a sports car, and am the owner and director of Fitrme in Truganina, Melbourne. Thanks to AIPT I have gone from a 35 years career in corporate, where I was just a number, to owning my own company. They provided me with knowledge and support to share with others.

I am here to help you make the right decision to choose a company to teach you to become an amazing PT.

What inspired you to get into the Fitness Industry?

People. I studied to be a group and personal trainer. The invaluable knowledge I gained during my 12 months with AIPT gave me the key to my future, my world.

Making a difference is my passion, not just for my clients but for myself. Everyone is unique, and they all provide me with an opportunity to learn more to meet their needs and goals. I love that I can help people see more inside themselves, whether mentally or physically. I’m privileged to have the position of a personal trainer. My legacy is the family I am putting together, and feeling proud that I have made a positive change whilst earning a living.

What do you love about your job?

I am about to leave my full-time job after 35 years of retail at all levels. With the skills I learned through AIPT, I have the key to a door of opportunities. I bounce out of bed at 5 or 6 am, ready for a PT session. I know my client has put themselves out to come to train with me and that they trust me to help them. WOW! What an amazing feeling to be wanted for your skills and knowledge. I love, love, love what I do more than anyone can imagine.

Why did you partner with AIPT?

I love AIPT with a passion. The best training company in Australia and maybe the world. The people are down-to-earth and cannot help enough. It’s the perfect opportunity to share my experience, mentor new PTs and help them reach their dreams. Why would I not want to partner with AIPT?
