The Biomechanics

The Biomechanics is more than a gym; its a community and I highly recommend the Biomechanics Glen Iris, especially with Samuel Padarcic at the helm as Practice Lead. It is a real pleasure training under Sam's guidance. Sam is extremely personable and empathetic. He takes my training goals seriously and pushes me to reach them but is just as comfortable providing me with the compassion and encouragement I need when experiencing set backs in my health and training.

Samuel (exercise physiologist) was incredibly knowledgeable and helped me with longstanding issues I’ve been having with my knee. He listened intently and asked questions to make sure he understood what pain I was having but also turned his mind to my lifestyle and training and how that would affect my pain. Samuel devised a personal training plan for me and my pain has now diminished greatly to almost be nonexistent. This has greatly improved my quality of life and given me back my confidence with my running and strength training. Samuel also took the time to discuss with me the psychological factors in injury management and healing, truly demonstrating a wholistic approach to his practice. Could not recommend anyone higher.

Samuel Padarcic is an outstanding exercise physiologist. I went to him with three goals - improve strength, improve muscle definition, and improve my running. I had asked him to turn me into Terminator 2 mum as a bit of a joke (I’m in my 50s). He set me a fun program that actually did those three things. My running is the fastest it’s ever been (age graded score 74.66%). People comment on my defined arms. My deadlifts are progressing well (on my way to deadlift double my weight). So if you are wanting to get stronger, improve definition, run faster, or even all of the above (without injuries) - Sam is the man to see.

The Biomechanics are very professional. My experience at Glen Iris has been first rate. Exercise Physiologist Mel is dedicated and incredibly knowledgable- she keeps my program dynamic and keeps me motivated with her positive and thoughtful demeanour.

I have had the most amazing experience with Emma from the Bio Mechanics over years. She is knowledgeable, compassionate, encouraging and a heap of fun to work with. She tailors sessions to the deal with the effects of chronic illness and always gets the best outcome possible. I always look forward to going - highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
