When Andrew started with us in 2018 his goal was to get under 100kgs. 12 Months later he smashed that goal and has now set his sights on even bigger things. He also recently competed in the Australian National DragonBoat Race Championships, and said that there is no way he could have achieved that before his transformation at Iron Lion.

I was 107 kg, had osteoarthritis in my feet so bad I was crying with the pain at the end of the day. I had high blood pressure and was taking medication to keep it under control. Over 12 months at Iron Lion I lost 33kg, my arthritis is 80% better, I am off blood pressure meds and I have more self confidence! Apart from having my 4 children this is one of my proudest achievements, I have not been this weight since I was 14! I cannot express my gratitude enough, its affected every facet of my life and made me a better me .. thankyou from the bottom of my heart.

From first contact Iron Lion was welcoming, and since starting it has been an infinitely better use of my time than grazing around a normal gym doing a standard program ever was. The scheduling and variety is great. The coaches have a great eye for what the right scale is for you, and moving you forward in your skills and ability. It seems to be a place people can just be themselves and take some time for themselves – that’s a really rare thing in this world.

CrossFit Iron Lion saved my life. After a recent complication during heart surgery the doctors told me that If I wasn’t so fit I probably wouldn’t have survived. For the previous 4 years I had been training under the guidance of Luke, Blair and Jill. They are exceptional coaches and have changed my life in so many ways. CrossFit Iron Lion is a very special community and my family are so lucky to be a part of it.

The coaches are supportive, enthusiastic, patient and encouraging, and the community is awesome, l have met so many new friends! I didn’t think a gym would have such an impact on me, I don’t know where I would be now without Iron Lion… THANK YOU.

Initially I thought I would come a couple of times a week, however with the varied training program, the awesome coaches and an incredible environment that is not only supportive, but encourages you to want to be the best you can be, this quickly changed to 5 times! I love it! Since joining I have had less issues with my heart and I am feeling healthier and stronger!

BEST SHAPE OF MY LIFE
BEFORE CROSSFIT, I was a fat kid and always found it really hard to lose weight. I had come to the conclusion that I would never be able to get into ideal shape. Working as a dentist, I had poor posture and experienced significant shoulder, neck, back and hip pain. NOW, At age 32 I am in the best shape of my life, pain free and stronger and fitter than ever before. I have more energy and sleep better.

I know it sounds cheesy…but you really have changed my life!!! I had always focused on weight loss, but after training with you, it’s more about health and well-being and constantly challenging myself. But despite weight loss not being the focus, your approach has resulted in me losing over 12kg of fat!
