    From Hating Running To Representing Australia & Running 120km Ultra Marathons: Meagan Brown

    As a world trail running competitor, ultra-marathon runner and someone who has represented Australia on the world stage, it’s something of a surprise to know that Meagan Brown hated running when she started out. Her first memory of running a marathon was at the Gold Coast Half Marathon, which she hated, to say the least. “I ran it in 2 hours 20 mins, I got to 17K and walked the rest and thought I never have to do this ever again,” confesses Brown. Coming from an army background, Brown moved around the country a fair bit, but what remained constant was her participation in sports. Basketball, tennis, netball, badminton – sports she showed much interest in ....

    Should Restaurants Put Calorie Counts On Their Menus?

    There have been calls from the public to include calorie counts on menus for meals. But is this a good idea? It could mean more information for people to make educated decisions, but the ramifications on mental health could do far more harm than good according to James and Sean, Rebuild’s in-house nutritionists. Yes it could be helpful to those looking to make an educated decision on eating out, but going out for a meal is about more than calorie counting. James says, “It would make sense if everyone had the same mindset (in terms of eating better) then it could give people a little bit of guidance to what they are eating, therefore make people more mindful about their ....

Chris Cantwell

I've been a member of Rebuild Health and Fitness for just over a year.  The coaches have diverse backgrounds, but their education and knowledge bases are incredibly complementary.  Pair that with a dedication to make every member a better version of themselves, and you end up with a gym community that is second to none. There are no overbearing egos here. The coaches strive for continuous improvement and are really receptive to ideas to stay ahead of the curve and to give their members the best possible value for money.
