EFM Health Clubs

Following an appointment with my doctor five months ago and a routine health checkup, I was advised that I had high cholesterol and needed to make a positive and healthy change. The doc was right I was eating junk and not excercising, and I had become a real lounge lizard! Even walking to the local shops was a real chore!
 
One day I noticed an EFM gym downstairs at the bottom of the building I work at and decided to 'bite the bullet' and walk in and sign up.
 
It was one of the best decisions I ever made!
 
Since joining EFM five months ago, and with the help and support of Simon and his team (Jenna and Pat) I have gone from 107kg to 82kg!  Losing 20kilos in five months!
 
The programs at EFM Herston are tough but enjoyable, especially when you start seeing the results. Accessing the gym is nice and easy and all I have to do is bring a change of clothes and when I finish work just pop into the gym.
 
Unlike other gyms who seem to be only after your money and to service the 'beautiful people', Simon and his team are 110% committed to you and your health.   They are so supportive, friendly and down to earth....and they make working out a pleasurable and fulfilling experience.
 
Simon, Jenna and Pat really stood beside me and looked after me during the training sessions always with helpful advice and encouragement, especially when times got tough and I was ready to 'give up'!
 
Well I'm now enjoying life to the full and able to play and excercise with my two kids, oh yeah and my cholesterol is back to normal and I have never felt better in my life!!!!

Since joining EFM 8 months ago, I have noticed a big difference in my health and energy levels. I love EFM's gym membership model of a different training program each day in addition to weekly challenges. The trainers are second to none at EFM in terms of motivation and friendliness. They know you by name, know your strengths and weaknesses and challenge you every session to improve your results. Bel is one of the nicest people I know, however she knows how to put that aside and push you to achieve your full potential

I can highly recommend the Thump Boxing classes for a total and complete body workout. I can also recommend the Personal Training sessions with any of the trainers to get that extra 10% out of you that you never knew was there.

EFM is the best gym I have ever been to and they have my membership for life.

“I have been attending the Currie Street EFM for over two years and I couldn’t imagine training anywhere else. From my first session it was clear to me that Bel and her team were ready to support and encourage me, while allowing me to go at my own pace. Having never exercised before I was initially felt completely out of my depth, but the EFM crew were always ready to take me through the exercises. Having a new exercise program written everyday means I never get bored and I always know I’m going to get an effective overall workout. I’m able do my own thing if I wish and there’s always a trainer there to ask for advice or give me that little extra push. I love the classes best. Working out in a group makes the time go faster and I find myself working harder during my exercise program without even realizing! The best thing about the gym is the atmosphere, Bel’s warm, friendly personality seems to positively affect everyone in the club. Whether I want to have a chat between exercises or just want to go in and sweat it out I always feel great after.”

"I have been part of EFM Health Club Caulfield for about 4 years now and I just love it. I have M.S. and I have become so much stronger and healthier since attending EFM. The fitness coaches and members are very friendly and the fitness coaches trainers are always happy to give me exercises to suit my needs. It's great to be treated as an individual where everyone knows your name and are aware of your capabilities. Lately I've forgotten I have M.S. because I've been so well. I would recommend EFM to anyone who has been put off by those huge gyms. Thankyyou so much to all the fitness coaches at EFM Caulfield who have helped me achieve so much." - Jody O'Connor.

After being a member of a huge well-known gym for about 18 months, I got sick and tired of nobody talking to me so I decided to take a look around. I'd heard good things about EFMs so when a friend suggested I check out the EFM at Holdfast Shores, I did. And with a free trial, I thought "what have you got to lose?

Well, that was last October and I haven't looked back. No membership card needed because you're not a number and they know your name! Smaller, friendly gym, lots of personal attention and really nice people who know their stuff. I am re-motivated and getting some great results too.

This is the first time in my life that I have actually felt motivated to go to the 'gym', I'm 45 and keep pretty active running around after my two little boys, but regular visits to EFM Noosaville have made me feel fitter and faster than some of the mums who are close to half my age.

I wanted to write to you about my experience at EFM. I had worked next door since 2004 but had never been in. I had recognized a couple of people by sight or the car they drove, but that was all. On October 31st last year I weighed myself and was horrified to see that I was the heaviest that I had ever been, 84 kg. I joined EFM the next day. Ten months later my weight is 73 kg.

My nephew still calls me Jelly Belly, but my sister puts me up as an example of hope, that there can be life for those over forty years old. I have had to put extra holes in all my belts! The new wardrobe that I have bought to fit my slim line figure is being noticed by other people. And I am fitter too. I hadn't run for years, and finding that I can now run 10 kilometres without stopping is amazing. I find that the everyday changes that my fitness coaches make to the training program keep me motivated – The programs are rewarding. And then there are my fellow 'EFMers', who I find are fun and friendly to train alongside and also help motivate me to look forward to training tomorrow.

I originally started to attend EFM as part of my winter fitness program. As it was close to work I could get one hour of training in a few days a week straight after work.

In the past, I did all of my training outdoors and I was a bit apprehensive to join a GYM. EFM on the other hand was not as intimidating as some Gyms I attended years ago. I found the Fitness Coaches to be helpful and professional in their approach. Further to this, I found the other members to be very friendly and supportive in my efforts to achieve my goals.

I have just recently passed the 50 Visit milestone and I can see myself being a part of the EFM family for many visits to come.

EFM, keep up the good work in helping me achieve my life changing goals.

I go to EFM to enable me to get more out of life for longer. There really are no mirrors, there really is no waiting for machines and the personal care and attention is second to none. I "enjoy" it because it's more than just a gym, it's quality support for a great rate and it's convenient.

All my mates go there and half of them I met at the club. We do fun activities outside our gym sessions and they must be doing something right to get me to the gym more times in the past 6 months than I've ever been in my life.

Most importantly at EFM I've had the support and training to set realistic goals and for the first time in my life I'm actually nailing them!!!! THANKS TARKYN........... I O U!!!!

EFM for me is a challenge which I love. I have been able to achieve some personal fitness goals and the training sessions offer lots of variety.

This keeps me interested, motivated and coming back for more!
