Meet your coach
Training with purpose, not pressure.
I started Mind Core Fitness because I believe change is possible for everyone. With the right mindset and the right person in your corner, you can do more than you think. Fitness doesn't need to be complicated or extreme. It's about simplifying your life, building strong habits, and proving to yourself that you can.
Every session I run is tailored to you. Your goals, your body, your pace. Whether you're starting from scratch or pushing for peak performance, I'm here to guide you, challenge you, and keep you accountable.

“So far I have lost 25 kilos and still going. Ross is a good motivator, pushing me onwards to better and more physical workouts even at my tender age of 53. The monthly weigh ins are a very strong motivator to get to my target.”

“Wish I contacted Ross sooner, but what a difference he has made in such a short period. Not only physically but also mentally. Our workouts are non-negotiable, and he makes sure I get the most out of whatever we are doing. He communicates well and you know exactly what he expects of you. I would recommend Ross to anyone, from beginners to experienced.”
