Rob W, 31yrs

Chef

I came to Tighten Up to build strength and muscle , I’d always felt like a skinny guy.

 

The team has guided me every step of the way, from training to nutrition.

 

A year later, I feel fitter, stronger, and more confident than ever. Even my friends can see the difference.

Niall H, 37yrs

Accountant

We joined Tighten Up after being stuck on the couch through lockdown, picking it by chance turned out to be exceptional luck.

 

The trainers and members are so welcoming, and we feel right at home every time we walk in.

 

The session times fit perfectly around my work in education, and the results have been remarkable, not just for fitness but for mental health too.

 

The team have supported me through a couple of injuries, and I can’t recommend them enough.

 

This is by far the longest I’ve ever stayed with one gym, a true testament to the environment they’ve created.

Dani J, 35yrs

Tighten Up has trained me through two pregnancies and two major car accidents.

 

The careful attention given to me by my trainer Jewelz always has me feeling strong and fit and back on my feet in no time.

 

 

The latest addition to my family had me up over 100kg and I’m happy to say that after only 5 months of training twice a week my most recent purchase was a size 9 pair of skinny jeans!

 

I put this down to the constant encouragement and advice of my amazing trainer!

Gianluca M, 46yrs

Very friendly staff.

 

Jewelz is amazing and she always looks after you while exercising to make sure you’re doing it properly!

 

Great little boutique gym!!

John S, 55yrs

Architect

Now entering my third midlife crisis, I realised I needed a mentor to keep me focused on my health.

 

Thankfully, I found Tighten Up.

 

The team have been welcoming, thoughtful, and helped me rebuild the habits I’d lost.

 

Just 4 weeks in, I’m already noticing better strength and stability.

 

Cardio’s still my challenge, but I’m a work in progress and loving it.”

Bek V, 32yrs

Psychologist

I started seeing Jewelz over 5 years ago with a goal of losing weight. I shed over 10 kilos in my time with her; I went from a size 16 to a size 10, more importantly I gained so much self confidence.

 

I feel so strong and alive now! Jewelz has taught me ‘Strong is Sexy’ and every woman deserves to feel beautiful and powerful!

 

I would recommend her to anyone, of any fitness level. Jewelz has changed my life. She can change yours too!

Sara M, 33yrs

Law Student

I have lost 2.6% body fat, 13cm around my waist, 2.5 cms around my hips, 2.7 cms around my chest, and 4 cms off my thighs.

 

My arms are toned and muscular and I began to see my six pack after 4 weeks and I dropped two dress sizes!

 

Jewelz is by far one of the most knowledgeable, inspirational, supportive and driving personal trainers I have ever met!

Braith B, 57yrs

Marketing

I first started working with Jewelz over 10 years ago but circumstances had me have a break until last year.

 

What I can say is that Jewelz has really kept up with contemporary workout ideas and strategies.

 

The studio is so well run - you’ll not find a more professional gym.

 

As I was returning from injury, the care and attention given to me was first class.

 

No matter what your motivation to visit this studio, you’ll be treated as an individual and leave feeling heard, supported and maybe a little bit sore (in a good way)

Wayne K, 50yrs

Musician and Composer

I hated exercise until now! I love going to Tighten Up!

 

The staff are ultra friendly, attentive and professional and I feel taken care of. And I like the small group classes as a compromise between one on one training and large classes.

 

These people make going to an exercise class fun for me, and believe me, that is a major achievement and is definitely worth five stars.

 
 

Tarn E, 43yrs

Change Manager

I started personal training with Tighten Up over six years ago, and I don’t think I’d ever really been fit before that. Jewelz made me feel comfortable from day one and knew exactly how far to push me.

 

Since then, my strength and fitness have improved more than I ever thought possible. Every session is tailored to where I’m at, and the focus on overall health has made a huge difference.

 

I’ve trained one on one, two on one, and in small groups, and every session has been enjoyable, challenging, and rewarding. I genuinely look forward to every workout.

Eve W, 38 yrs

Physiotherapy Manager

Since training with Tighten Up, I’ve seen my body change shape and developed a strength and confidence that others have noticed too.

 

Jewelz’s insight, care, and deep knowledge mean every session is tailored to exactly what I need. She keeps things fun and challenging, and it’s the reason I get up at 5am every week to travel from Northcote to St Kilda.

 

I train with my partner as well, and Jewelz always finds ways for us both to get the most out of every session. She’s not just a great trainer but a genuinely awesome person who wants to see people shine.

Nev Mc, 47yrs

IT Consultant

I’ve been training regularly for 30 years and have been a qualified fitness instructor myself, and I love my sessions at Tighten Up, they’re fun (most of the time) & challenging.

 

I’ve noticed a marked improvement in muscle strength, tone, and overall conditioning.

 

Their knowledge and diligence is perfect for reaching your fitness goals and also great peace of mind against potential injury.

 

I may curse when the alarm goes off at 5am, but I can’t recommend the team highly enough!

Stacey L, 28yrs

Property Development Officer

I drive from the Northern suburbs to train every Saturday. I just feel so happy here!

You walk away from every session knowing that you’ve achieved something.

 

Jewelz will always check in with us during the week and forward healthy food ideas as well as ‘need to know’ information that we can implement into our routines.

 

Jewelz is always happy to offer her advice, nutrition tips, food ideas or answer any questions you might have. I have learnt so much in my time here, I have made many changes to my lifestyle, and to top it off I feel stronger every week.

 

Strong is sexy!

Benjamin G-S, 27yrs

Sound & AV Specialist

My trainer Jewelz is an outstanding personal trainer who knows exactly how to get the best out of me.

 

She built a plan around my goals and continues to tweak it as I improve. She’s tough when I need it, always encouraging, and genuinely cares about helping me get results.

 

She’s also incredibly knowledgeable and always takes the time to explain the why behind what we do. On top of that, she’s smart, friendly, and fun to train with.

 

Since starting, I’ve felt more energised and confident, and I highly recommend her group sessions, especially Sweatbox. It’s a great way to stay fit, have fun, and train with a motivating crew.

Jax B, 50yrs

Hospitality Manager

I started training with Tighten Up over six years ago, and Jewelz is easily the most motivated and innovative trainer I’ve ever worked with. She’s passionate about helping her clients push through challenges and build both mind and body.

 

Every session is tailored to my fitness level, and never boring.

 

Training with Jewelz has been genuinely life changing, she inspired me so much that I enrolled with the A.I.F. to become a personal trainer myself.

 

She’s helped me build a stronger body and a new sense of focus, and I couldn’t be more grateful.

Lorraine M, 28yrs

Enviromental Consultant

I started training with Tighten Up while recovering from a knee injury and had completely lost my motivation to exercise.

 

Jewelz was incredibly thorough from the start, taking the time to understand my medical history, goals, and what I needed to rebuild my strength.

 

Since then, my fitness, strength, and stability have improved massively. I’ve lost weight, gained lean muscle, and feel stronger both physically and mentally.

 

Jewelz knows exactly when to push me and when to pull back, and she always keeps sessions challenging. She’s also given me great nutrition advice and support with recovery when I’ve needed it.

 

Training with Jewelz has been one of the best decisions I’ve made, it’s helped me feel confident, capable, and back in control of my body.

Anna K, 47yrs

Executive Assistant

One day I just knew it was time to get serious about my health, and that’s when I met Jewelz. A year later, I’ve lost over 10 kilos and feel stronger, healthier, and happier in myself.

 

Jewelz guided me to keep a food diary for the first few months gave me real insight into my habits. That step alone made a huge difference.

 

The training is fun and varied, and I love the boxing sessions. The steady progress has kept me motivated.

 

Jewelz’s encouragement, energy, and genuine care go well beyond what you’d expect from a trainer.
