Facilities at Training Day Gym
Cables N’ Things
You won’t be caught waiting to get some cable curls or tricep pushdowns here! On top of two big cable stations, we’ve added an extra tricep station on the end of it, so you can still do your cable flies when someone just wants to use one end for tricep pushdowns.
The Playground
This part of the gym is a heaven for weightlifters, powerlifters, and functional athletes. A turf track 15m in length. 5 designated weightlifting platforms, 2 carpet surfaced powerlifting platforms, 2 competition spec combo racks (not shown), 4 double cell squat rigs with monkey bars in between.
Squat Station
Rogue cages, calibrated steel plates, power bars, deadlift bars, GHRs and a whole lot of chalk; hell, we even have some Eleiko bars! We’re blessed with over 15 squatting stations at our Clayton gym.
Lift Zone
Tons of flooring had to be laid down to prepare our platforms for what your weight are about to do them! With facilities catering to both Weightlifting & Powerilfting; these areas will be loud and PR’s will be broken.
Machine Central
All of our bench presses are Australian made and have spotter arms (not shown in the render), so you can feel safe during those quiet hours where spotters aren’t easy to find. Most of our machines are Nautilus branded, with a few pieces of specialty machines such as the Pendulum squat, and the Glute drive.
Cardio Section
Startrac treadmills, Ellipticals, all kinds of bikes, and of course, the ultimate Stairmaster stair mills. Overlooking Princes Highway, you get reminded that you are in the gym making the progress that those people driving home are missing out on. Go you!
Bags N’ Group Zone
Sometimes you just need to hit something. These bags are here to keep you out of trouble. If that’s not fun enough for you. Our Boxfit classes are the most popular classes we have. On top of this, the floor in this group training zone is designed to handle weight dumping. It comes in handy in our Barbell Fit and Hiit classes where you simply don’t have the energy left to put the weights down softly. So you let the weights know how much you’re hurting!
Class Room
We run a variety of classes in this room, from Yoga, floor Pilates, to High Intensity Interval sessions. Take a look at the ‘Classes’ section to find out more. Two floor to ceiling windows in this room which looks out to Ferntree Gully Road. When classes are not running, this is another open training space for anything you want. Or just pose!
Barbells
This is probably what Training Day is known for more than anything else. Yes we have the highly sought after Swedish made Eleiko Barbells out on the gym floor for members to use. If you’re not familiar with what that is, a quick Google of their pricetags should indicate the cult. It doesn’t stop there, Rogue powerlifting and weightlifting bars, Comp spec combo racks, and your favourite carpet surfaced deadlifting platforms that we have to resurface regularly… but we get it, because training is life!
Calibrated Weights
CALIBRATED AND BUMPER PLATES For those who are asking: why are calibrated weight plates important? Here’s your answer: A regular weight plate, (like the ones most health and fitness gyms use) can vary up to 300g in weight per plate. Sure, that doesn’t sound like much, instead of bench pressing 20kg I’m doing 19.7kg. But let’s now imagine you are lifting 5 plates per side, training for your first competition. In total, that’s 3kg off the actual weight you think you’re lifting. You head off to competition thinking you’ve done this weight before, and on the day, it doesn’t move! Now you go searching for a gym with proper weight plates! We’ve saved you that painful experience.
Sunlighten Infrared Sauna
Speed up recovery, detoxification, relax, burn more calories, increase collagen production, the list goes on. This is such a great method to aid your recovery, especially if you’re training as hard as we think you are. If you haven’t tried, or don’t know what an infrared sauna is, don’t miss out any longer. Our infrared sauna in Clayton can be booked ” HERE ” on the website or phone us up.

5 fitness exercises for beginners at Training Day
There are many fitness workout exercises that beginners of all ages can participate in to improve their mobility and endurance. Here are our top five recommendations to get you started!
1. Treadmill
Walking or running on a treadmill is a great cardiovascular exercise to get your heart rate up and boost your overall health. If you’re new to fitness exercises, start by walking for 20-30 minutes, three times per week, and gradually increase your time as you become more fit.
2. Stationary biking
Biking is an excellent fitness activity for people of all ages, from adults to teens to young children. If you don’t have access to a bike or you’re new to cycling, you can use a stationary bike at one of our gyms! We recommend that you start by pedalling for 15 minutes, two times per week.
3. Strength training exercises
Strength training is important for muscle building and improving bone density. Beginners should start with body-weight fitness exercises like push-ups, pull-ups and squats. As you become stronger, you can add dumbbells or resistance bands to increase the difficulty of your fitness workouts. We have lots of strength-training equipment available at our Burwood and Clayton gyms, so come and check them out!
4. Boxing
Boxing engages all the major muscle groups, including the arms, legs, back and core, making it an effective full-body workout. At Training Day, we have boxing classes designed for beginners and intermediate participants, allowing you to learn the basics of boxing techniques while having fun!
5. Pilates
Pilates is a great way to improve flexibility, balance, mobility and core strength. Our weekly mat pilates classes are ideal for beginners and intermediate participants. These fitness workouts will help you gain more awareness of your body and boost your overall health in a lively and supportive environment.
Tips for starting fitness exercises
Before beginning your new workout routine, you should do a few things to ensure you’re participating in fitness activities safely and effectively.
Assess your current fitness levels
Assessing your current fitness level is essential before starting any new fitness exercises. By knowing your baseline, you can:
- better gauge your progress;
- avoid overexerting or injuring yourself; and
- tailor your fitness workouts to ensure you’re challenging yourself enough to see results.
If you’re new to exercise, starting slow and gradually building your fitness workouts is important. Our Burwood and Clayton gyms offer a range of beginner and intermediate fitness classes so you can go at your own pace.
Identify your workout goals
Before beginning your fitness exercises, it might also be useful to identify your workout goals. Whether you want to lose weight, build muscle or simply improve your overall health, knowing your goals will help you choose the right fitness exercises to get you where you want to go.
Create a plan for your fitness activities
Our trainers can help you design an exercise program tailored to your specific goals and skill level. We will work with you to determine things like how long you should workout for and what different exercises you should incorporate into your routine. With our help, you can smash your fitness exercises with confidence, knowing that your workout routine is safe and designed for real results.
