Gong number 2 at the AUSactive National Fitness Industry Awards. I was extremely humbled to receive the highest acknowledgement of all, being inducted into the Roll of Honour for achievements and contributions to the Australian and International Fitness Industry. I've always loved what I do and the people I get to work with, both peers and clients, make the journey always special.
Thankyou to AUSactive for the tremendous work you do in promoting professionalism in the health and fitness sector and to my family and many friends and valued clients who have always supported me, this one's for you.

Success inspires.
Part of my latest project with Paradise Fitness Clubs includes refining our Personal Training systems and that means I'm back on the tools doing Private sessions with select clients, and I LOVE it.
For all my years of global jet-setting, speaking at conferences, consulting and leading large-scale team training courses, you put me in room one on one with a committed client and for me, that's when the real magic happens. Take Damien here for example. His goal is hypertrophy (muscle growth) and in six weeks we added 5.5 cms (2 inches) onto each of his thighs and 3.5cms on each arm. Moreover he is now significantly stronger and in his own words, "feels amazing". Other clients have weight loss goals, others again need injury rehabilitation, all are succeeding and that inspires me further.
I'm looking forward to further sharing our highly successful approach and uniquely designed equipment at future international fitness conferences.

The future is in good hands.

The best minds and motivators of the Australian Health and Fitness Industry came together recently at the 2022 FILEX Fitness Business Conference in Sydney, and for me it was a welcome return to speaking at live events after a two and a half year, mostly self-imposed hiatus from live presenting. The chance to reconnect with great friends and people I genuinely respect and enjoy learning from, including the likes of Greg Oliver, Andrew Simmons and Emmett Williams (left to right) is always welcomed, but to be frank, after 28 years of seemingly non-stop international consulting, coaching and speaking, the pandemic and associated travel restrictions provided me the perfect smoke screen to take a much needed break, spend more time with my family and focus on creating local projects while also updating our existing client retention systems.

One of those projects is in partnership with with my son Ben (2nd from right) and his best mate and my dear friend, William Harlow. Both boys are just 17 years old and still completing high school but already proving to be highly competent business operators, hard workers and creative thinkers.

Our primary project is Paradise Fitness Clubs and within that we have created a number of unique fitness training and operational systems that set us apart from any other current offerings or model.

More on that to come, but it provides an immense sense of pride to see these boys stepping up to this challenge and I believe our industry will continue to grow and thrive as long as we listen to and encourage our youth to get involved and be empowered to drive our evolution. Experience counts, but to see the world with fresh eyes as our offspring do, is a gift we must embrace. Thankyou FILEX and AUSactive for putting on such a great event and for welcoming these young men into our industry as you have. It will surely pay dividends for us all and greatly serve our ultimate customers, the fitness clients and valued members of our clubs.

The business of fitness.
Wow, my first flight in over 2 years, speaking at my first live conference in 2.5 years and the first for these fine young men.
Proud to have Ben and William joining me at FILEX Fitness Business conference in Sydney and excited to be reconnecting with many of great friends and industry peers as we teach, learn and network for the betterment of all our clients. Fitness is an essential element to loving your life and has been a highly rewarding career for me since 1980. Time to pass the torch.

Regular posts of all things fitness, sport and business can now be viewed on Paul Brown MrRetention but suffice to say the past three months have been very hectic and exciting for the Face2Face team as we developed and launched our own new Fitness Studio format.
Paradise Fitness Clubs encompass the best of our Face2Face Fitness and Retention Systems along with all the lessons we have learned from 25 years of global travel, working with the best fitness brands in the world and attending and speaking at hundreds of international fitness conferences.
Our mission is simple, to create the best little fitness club model in the world, and if you ask our Founders Club members, they might just say that's what we've already done, however we are far from finished as we let our innovative minds run free, daily creating, testing and refining the ultimate workout formats and delivering the most complete and personalised member experience possible in the concentrated space of 120 square metres. (1200 sq ft).
We know every member's story, where they are now, where they want to be. We are clear on their needs and preferences and we deliver accordingly. We know every one of them by name and more often than not that of their family. Indeed our number one source of new members is current ones insisting their partner and closest friends come see what they keep talking about. Why not, it's all for them. It is not about us, who we are or what we have built. It is what we can do with all that experience, expertise and unique equipment to better their lives. We are laser focused on ensuring our members feel like they are the only one that counts, while at the same time they all embrace the powerful community spirit that brings us all together as one unit.
This was always the aim of Face to Face Fitness and now, in this laboratory, we will perfect our model and then share with the world yet again.
Fitness is a journey, not a destination. Our mission has equally been so, taking many forms since my first role as a gym floor supervisor in 1980 and now, here, we rise to a new challenge and set new standards. Please. come see and experience it fully for yourself. Once you get immersed, you will surely love Paradise Fitness because you will Love your Life!
