Kylie Jackes

“After losing 59kg by doing personal training with Kylie, I feel like I can achieve anything. Back when I was 127kg, I knew something needed to change. My health was suffering and my self-confidence was at an all-time low. The task of losing weight felt huge, but from the minute I started working with Kylie I felt like it was achievable. Her confidence in my ability to reach my goal, along with the accountability our sessions gave me, was exactly what I needed. Kylie’s dedication to my goals was and remains unwavering. Her help with nutrition was essential, and her constant messages of motivation were so important. Our sessions are now the highlight of my week – I enjoy nothing more than a good kettlebell or weights session! Training with Kylie has changed my life, I am fit, strong, and I have found a self-confidence I never thought possible.”

“Before I started personal training sessions with Kylie I was someone who went to the gym, did classes and gravitated towards the cardio machines. I wasn’t confident in using other equipment and I didn’t know much about form and technique. I decided to start PT sessions and, here we are, 10 years later, where I have the confidence to walk into any gym and just get on with it. Working out with Kylie has had huge benefits for my mental health. So much so that I increased my weekly sessions with her during COVID lockdowns, because no matter what else was going on, I always felt good after our time together. I love the variety in our sessions. One day I’ll be deadlifting over 55kg and the next day I will be doing boxing drills and timed runs (which I love, BTW). Kylie is firm but fair and holds you accountable. If you are going to invest in a Personal Trainer, you want someone who is as passionate about you reaching your goals as you are, so on the days where maybe you don’t feel that passion, that trainer is in your corner keeping you motivated, telling you that you can do it and coaching you to success. That’s Kylie. I’ve had a few injuries over the years, including torn ligaments in my ankle, but I’ve never had to stop training. Kylie works with you to ensure you stay safe and still get a great workout, no matter what the challenge of the moment might be. I love when we hit a few PBs during a session, but what’s even more satisfying is when I get compliments on my strength, especially from men as I’m helping them move bulky furniture down flights of stairs. Mission accomplished! I wouldn’t train with anyone else.”

“Before I started doing personal training with Kylie I was in a rut, not feeling confident and really up and down with my moods. What I love most about working with Kylie is that she gets my goals, she challenges my bullshit and she makes me be a better me. After just 6 weeks of training with Kylie, I wore an outfit for Mardi Gras that I would never have entertained before. My fitness is so much better and I look forward to getting to the gym to do the program Kylie designed for me. I’m much happier, more energised, sleeping better and able to deal with the stress of life much better.”
