Train Like a Pro: AFL-Level Conditioning with Daniel Nicholls

Train Smarter. Train Stronger. Train Like a Pro

 

Hi, I’m Daniel — a certified personal trainer with years of high-performance AFL training under my belt. I know what it’s like to push your body and mind to the limit, to train through the hard days, and to stay disciplined when the finish line feels miles away.
Now, I help everyday people experience the same benefits that professional athletes enjoy — strength, resilience, confidence, and results that last.

what we have to offer and how we can contribute to your success.

Beyond the ordinary

About Me

I didn’t just study fitness — I lived it.
From my years playing AFL at a competitive level, I learned the discipline, structure, and drive it takes to perform at your absolute best. Every training session, every early morning, every sprint taught me that results don’t come from shortcuts — they come from showing up, giving your all, and trusting the process.

That experience is now at the core of how I train my clients. Whether your goal is to build muscle, improve your endurance, lose weight, or simply feel fitter and healthier, I’ll create a plan that’s tailored to you — and I’ll be with you every step of the way.

What I Bring to the Table

  • First-Hand High-Performance Experience – I know what it takes to train like an athlete because I’ve done it for years.

  • Team-Driven Motivation – I thrive on building a positive training environment where you feel supported and inspired.

  • Clear, Structured Plans – Every workout has a purpose. You’ll know why you’re doing it and how it moves you toward your goal.

  • Injury-Aware Training – I understand the toll training can take, so I build programs that challenge you but keep you safe.

  • Mental Resilience Coaching – Fitness isn’t just physical — I’ll help you develop the mindset to stick with it even when it gets tough.

Training with Me...

Think of our sessions as part workout, part coaching, and part game plan. I’ll push you when you need it, adjust when something’s not working, and celebrate every win with you — big or small.

I bring the same energy I had on the footy field into every session: discipline, focus, and an unshakable belief that you can do more than you think you can.
