PTC style gym in Melb

[Russell Coight]

Hi guys,

Is there a PTC or PTC type of gym in the northern suburbs of Melb?

thanks

Frankston is the only Ptc in Melbourne.

Not sure on any other real gyms open to the public apart from melb uni.

About 90 mins away from me hehe, seems like a good place to train.

I travel 90mins to ptc sydney, worth the drive.

I drive 70 mins, each way, 6 days a week to get to my local PTC!

Straight down the eastern, should be quicker than 90?

70 both ways? That's discombobulating!

other than PTC in Frankston and Melb Uni (PL group),
there is also Definition 352 (they also have the home of strongman comps here):

plus there's Doherty's gyms: Doherty's Gym - Brunswick + City + Dandenong + Campbellfield

PTC isn't the only cool place (stop throwing things, ppl )

I travel about an hour to PTC Perth. It's not very far away, just our highways are shit.

If it's a place that you enjoy, training becomes that much more enjoyable and you're much more likely to not skip a session or find justification to stop. I could travel an hour each way to PTC Perth any day of the week, but before it existed, really had trouble going to Fitness First with any sort of regularity which was walking distance away.

TLDR: It's worth the travel.

there is also elite sports performance in spotswood -
Elite Sports - ELITE SPORTS PERFORMANCE

and Daniel Portelli's gym in dandenong. Callan knows the deets on that one.

It's no PTC, but bodyworld balaclava is a proper gym (i.e allows chalk, has power-racks, a deadlift platform etc). I believe that the St Kilda Powerlifting Club is based there.

MTS is Daniel Portelli's gym. We're in Dandenong. 35 Cheltenham road right near Doherty's.

Doherty's is also in Campbellfield and Brunswick.

im thinking somewhere around 10-15km out from the city

for example somewhere between st kilda and dandenong.

I have a basic home setup in Reservoir.

It would be nice to have something in the northern burbs, the occasional trip to Frankston is worth it.
