Hi, I’m James Mac. My journey to MacFit began a long way back. As an adolescent I struggled to sit still and learn at school. I felt there were barriers in my way, that I couldn’t break through, I knew I had more to give but I was unable to for a long time. I carried this feeling into my work life, finding ways to avoid doing things I didn’t like.
My early twenties were my dark years, I felt alone, abandoned and defensive. I realised I was sabotaging myself and put my faith into the hands of a therapist. Together we worked through my patterns of behaviour and the emotions that were underlying them. At the time exercise was the only thing that made me feel good. I could see the connection between my mental health and my physical body.
I completed my Certificate 3 & 4 at the Australian Institute of Fitness and realised I had many unique strengths that set me apart from other coaches. With this perspective I knew that I wanted to help other people navigate learning and working with their own turbulence. From this realisation MacFit was born, it was more than just a gym, it was a place to build belief in yourself.
Hello everybody, my name is Jaxon. From a very young age I grew up playing a variety of different sports. Cricket, soccer, football and fitness have been a part of my life from day one. My love for strength and conditioning, hypertrophy and teaching complete novice gym-goers about the learnings of safe and effective exercise is something I have been mastering since joining MacFit. My passion is for developing new and inexperienced members into capable and confident gym-goers. Watching people kick goals on a day-to-day basis is the reason I love coming to work everyday!
