BEYOND THE PRESCRIPTION
Medicine opens the door. WRK maps the way forward.
GLP-1 medications have changed what is possible in weight management. We provide the intelligent movement, muscle preservation, and habit frameworks to support your physical body alongside it.

I’m Hayden.
Structured strength without the exhaustion. We replace extreme diets and high-volume gym routines with targeted, 30-minute sessions that protect your joints, your energy, and your metabolic health.
I founded WRK Personal Training to bridge the gap between medical weight management and physical capability—providing the supervised strength training, muscle preservation, and habit structure your body needs alongside medication.
The Three Core Principles
Every session, app track, and habit cue is built on these foundations.
Muscular Defence First
Rapid weight loss without targeted resistance training can sacrifice lean muscle and resting metabolism. We prioritise joint-friendly lifting patterns so the weight lost is fat, while your physical strength stays protected.
Compassionate Calibration
Your body is changing rapidly. Dose adjustments, low appetite, and fluctuating recovery mean training must adapt to where you are each week—swapping rigid perfectionism for smart, sustainable progress.
Real-World Integration
Fitness should support your life, not consume it. We focus on foundational routines—digestible protein anchoring, hydration, and 30-minute sessions—that stick with you for decades to come.
Two decades of hands-on client results across strength and body recomposition.
Strict adherence to non-diagnostic lifestyle coaching, PAR-Q+ screening, and seamless GP collaboration.
Coaching in-person from 12 Show Place, Addington — a quiet, uncrowded space with dedicated parking and zero gym posturing.
