Athletic Culture

A conversation could change a life. 💛

1 in 5 Australians will experience a mental health issue this year. R U OK? Day is a reminder that we all have the power to make a difference by simply asking, “Are you OK?” Checking in on your mates, family members, or gym buddy could be just the support they need.

At Athletic Culture, we’re more than just a gym—we’re a community. Today, and every day, let’s break the stigma and show up for each other, because mental health matters just as much as physical strength.

✨TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY✨
This is the huge difference 4kg down and regular resistance training can make 😳 Legends, meet .rosee, another superstar client of coach 👑

Prior to coaching with Danny, Angie hadn’t step foot into a gym and wasn’t watching her food intake, eating approx. 2500-3000 cals a day.

After an initial goal-setting session, Angie aimed to train x3 a week, reduce her daily intake to 1700 cals, increase her daily protein to 110g and work on improving her confidence to train at the gym solo.

Fast forward to today 👉🏻 and Angie now trains x4-5 times week and mostly on her own, is a nutrition-tracking queen, is down 4KG in body weight AND has smashed FOUR PBs 🥳 —

Squats: 40kg —> 70kg
Hip thrusts: Bodyweight —> 110kg
Chest press: 12kg —> 35kg
Chin-up: 0 —> x4 reps

Angie credits coach Danny with all her newfound knowledge on fitness and food, and building the courage to step onto the gym floor. In her own words — “When I first started, I felt like I didn’t belong in the gym. Dan helped me grow out of that, and now gym sessions have become my favourite part of the day. My life has completely changed, I’m so much healthier and happier and I could not have done that without Dan. Everyone needs a Dan in their life!!” 🥲🥰

We love to hear it!

Spring has officially sprung 🌸
What we love the most about this season is that it is all about new beginnings and transformations.

That being said, here at AC we are gearing up for exciting finish to the year — our annual challenge is coming, a new website to be launched and a couple of events are in the pipeline.

✨️TRANSFORMATION TUESDAY✨️ ⁠
This before & after has truly blown our minds...⁠
is 45KG DOWN with coach 🤯 but the REAL transformation here is her self-worth, confidence, and overall happiness.⁠
⁠
In her own words, Kesara hit rock bottom when the pandemic hit. She lost her job, was severely depressed, binge drinking and eating every day, and did not exercise at all. "I wish I was joking. I didn't leave my house."⁠
⁠
Kesara knew she had to make a change, and that's when she found coach Danny B. Fast forward to today, Kesara has gone from no training to now completing a boxing match and powerlifting competition. She's lost weight, gained strength, found a new job that she loves, and has an all-new appreciation for her body and life.⁠
⁠
From her coach — "Not only has she made tremendous physical growth, but what shines is the mental growth on this journey. Kesara embraces change with a smile and absolute determination and always looks to raise the bar. She continues to be an inspiration to others, and without a doubt, I could not be more proud to be a part of her four-year journey." ⁠
⁠
We second that! Besides being an absolute legend, Kesara truly represents the AC core values of achieving ultimate human performance, commitment, and respect for the culture. We're honored to have you as a longtime member Kesara and have loved watching your journey with coach Danny. 👑⁠
⁠
Crew, let's give Kesara a 👏🏻 in the comment section for her incredible work.⁠
