Luke Marshall

Personal Trainer

Luke began his studies in Exercise Science in 1998 and has not looked back. He owes a lot of credit to his first personal trainer who changed his mind set on exercise and helped him see the importance of functional and corrective exercise methods for a stronger, stable body inside and out.

With so much to offer his clients, Luke will match his training style to suit the needs of anyone he works with. He has key knowledge and experience in correcting movement discrepancies allowing the body to move more functionally.

Luke has a diverse skillset allowing him to work with anyone from professional athletes and bodybuilders to pregnant women and people with disabilities. He follows a holistic approach to health and wellbeing and believes one size does not fit all when it comes to exercise prescription. It is important to first get an assessment on how your body moves and then form a program based on sports, occupation, previous injuries, etc.

Luke has a keen interest in skiing, running, gym work and golf. When he is not at the Health & Fitness Centre, he may be out on the golf course hitting balls or building up kilometres on the roads.

He loves working with all his clients and really thrives seeing them happy, pain-free and achieving their goals, whatever they may be.
