Gold Coast-based Fitness Enhancement Personal Training has won the Australian “Employer of Choice” award for the fitness industry, beating out other reputable finalists such as Fernwood Fitness and World Gym.
The awards were announced at the AUSactive national awards on Friday the 21st of October at the Ivy Ballroom in Sydney, attended by the best of the best in the Australian fitness industry. Fitness Enhancement won the Employer of Choice award for a brand with 10+ locations. Currently, there are over 100 gyms or fitness brands in Australia that have more than 10 locations each.
Fitness Enhancement CEO and founder Scott Hunt accepted the award for the company and said:
“Since 1999, we’ve always been about putting the “personal” in Personal Training and seeing everyone as an individual with their own goals. This doesn’t stop at our clients; this extends to our staff, our franchisees, and our franchisee staff. It’s a team effort, so this win is for our team, especially after the last couple of years. However, it’s just the beginning. We look forward to this award bringing more amazing people with shared values to our team. And we look forward to this award helping to raise awareness that the right Personal Trainer is for anyone, no matter what their ability or disability.”
Fitness Enhancement Personal Training was founded in 1999 in Nerang, on the Gold Coast, by then 19-year-old Scott Hunt for just $400. A passion for helping those who can’t or won’t attend a gym has also led to their National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) registration in 2019 and the launch of their sub-brand Fit Your Ability, Australia’s only multi-city fitness company specialising in disability fitness.
A desire to help clients beyond the Gold Coast and a desire to provide career growth opportunities for Personal Trainers saw the Fitness Enhancement franchise in 2014. Today, their 100% private Personal Training Studios and Mobile Personal Trainers across Fitness Enhancement and Fit Your Ability service over 2000 suburbs across 7 cities around Australia. They are the largest Personal Training company in QLD; the largest mobile Personal Training company in Australia; and the largest NDIS-registered PT company in Australia.
