Min Sessions
You hit snooze again.
You're running on caffeine and not much else.
You told them "tomorrow". Tomorrow never came.
You're doing everything for everyone except yourself.
You've started and stopped more times than you can count.
You know what to do. You just never actually do it.
The problem isn't motivation. It isn't time.
It's that you've made your health the last thing on the list. For too long.

AW Performance Systems is for busy people who are done putting themselves last.

I coach everyday busy people — mums, dads, professionals — to move better, eliminate pain, feel stronger, look better, and feel like themselves again. Not next year. Not when things slow down. Now. With the time you actually have.

If you're a mum or dad who's lost themselves to the juggle — work, school runs, sport, everything except you — this is where that changes. Your kids need you showing up with energy, strength and presence. They need you to be their superhero. You can't pour from an empty cup.

Movement is medicine. And the biggest thing holding most of us back isn't time or ability — it's procrastination. The doomscrolling, the Netflix binge, the endless putting off of the one thing that has the biggest reward attached. A structured system with someone in your corner changes all of that.

The coach
behind the system.

22 years coaching. NRL environments. Queensland Cup football — Redcliffe Dolphins, Sunshine Coast Falcons, Souths Magpies and Ipswich Jets. Corporate clients. First responders. Everyday professionals who give everything to everyone else — and have nothing left for themselves.

I've worked with elite athletes and I've worked with people who haven't trained in a decade. Athletes, executives, nurses, tradies, parents. The ones who put themselves last.

What I've learned coaching all of them is the same thing every single time. The problem isn't motivation. The problem is no structure, no support, and no one holding the line for you.

Tough roads can lead to beautiful destinations. But too many of us never take those first steps because we feel like we're doing it alone — and that journey on your own is scary. What if you had someone supporting you, encouraging you, challenging you, keeping you accountable, celebrating your wins?

That person is me. I'm a dad, a husband, a grandad. I believe in people. I believe in you.

"I coach everyday busy people to move better, feel stronger, eliminate pain, and feel like themselves again. In person and online. That's it. That's what I do."

Elite Coaching Pedigree
"I've worked with Aaron since his early days in the NRL system under me at Manly. From the moment he came into that environment it was clear he had a natural ability to connect with people and get results. His understanding of strength, conditioning and what it actually takes to build a high performing body is the real deal.

What separates Aaron from most coaches is that he doesn't just understand the science — he understands people. That combination is rare. Anyone who gets access to his systems is getting something built from genuine elite experience."
Don Singe
Head of Performance — Manly Warringah Sea Eagles NRL 2003–2015, 2019–2022 Head of Performance — Canterbury Bulldogs NRL 2015–2018 Head of Leadership & Culture — North Queensland Cowboys NRL 2026
"At 60, I was overweight, unfit and embarrassed. Two cortisone injections, a doctor recommending surgery, a shoulder I couldn't use. I'd spent most of my life being the boss — the one people came to for answers. But I had none for myself. I found Aaron. Within two months I felt different. Better. Over two years I went from not being able to curl 5kg to deadlifting 180kg on a trap bar. My weight was under control. My mind was clearer. My job is demanding — it always will be. But I had found something I didn't know I'd lost. For anyone time-poor and looking to reclaim control — I'm the proof his systems work."

Louis & Cathy Murray — back training at Fitness Cartel
"When our business took off, our health paid the price. My wife and I trained with Aaron for three years — twice a week, no excuses, no variation. Just consistent work. We lost over 35kg between us and learned how to actually live well, not just survive. Aaron programmed every week for us and held the line when life got busy. The results went far beyond what we expected."
Louis Murray, Co-Owner, What's Your Team (Redcliffe & Suncorp Stadium)
"I had a serious neck injury and was told prescription medication was my only path to a pain-free life. I came back to Aaron. He didn't hesitate. Through structured rehab, strength work and consistency, I rebuilt what I'd lost — mobility, strength and quality of life. I never went on medication. I'm still using what he taught me."
Cathy Murray, Co-Owner, What's Your Team (Redcliffe & Suncorp Stadium)
"Aaron has been a lifelong mentor with a profound impact on me personally and professionally. We first met when I was 15. The lessons he taught me then still shape who I am and how I coach today. His guidance instilled discipline, a strong work ethic, and an understanding of preparation, nutrition and accountability that I carry with me every single week."

"For years, I treated training like something I squeezed into life when I had time. I'd train hard, skip recovery, sacrifice sleep, then wonder why I constantly battled injuries. Aaron from AW Performance Systems completely changed how I look at health and fitness. I'm feeling stronger, healthier and full of life again. I realised health isn't built by one hard workout. It's built by the choices you make every day. Movement. Recovery. Sleep. Nutrition. The biggest improvements aren't in the gym. I sleep better. I manage stress better. I'm more patient at home. I have more energy. I recover faster. I feel capable again."
Joel Davidson, Queensland Police Dog Squad, Mt Isa

Everything you want to know
before you book.

Will this work if I'm starting from zero?
Yes. I've coached complete beginners and elite athletes. The program is built around where you are right now, not where you think you should be. Your starting point is just that — a starting point.
How much does it cost?
Online coaching starts from $49 per week for the Foundation tier. Performance and Elite pricing is discussed on your free consultation call — both are tailored to what you need. In-person coaching at Fitness Cartel Kippa-Ring is also available and pricing is covered on the call.
I work shifts / FIFO / odd hours. Can this still work for me?
This is built for exactly that. I coach police officers, firefighters, FIFO workers and shift workers. The program is mapped around your roster, not a standard Monday to Friday schedule. Online access means you can train anywhere, anytime.
I've tried before and it hasn't worked. Why would this be different?
Because most programs give you a plan and leave you to it. This comes with structure, accountability and a coach who monitors your progress and adjusts when life gets in the way. Consistency is built into the system — it's not left up to willpower.
How much time do I need?
Sessions are 25, 35 or 45 minutes — 2 to 3 times per week. That's it. The program is designed for people with real lives and real schedules. If you have 25 minutes, you have enough.
Do I need to join a gym?
For in-person coaching, sessions are at Fitness Cartel Kippa-Ring. For online coaching, you can train at any gym — or the program can be adapted for home training with minimal equipment. We discuss this on your free call.
What happens after I apply?
You fill out the short application form — takes 2 minutes. I review it personally and reach out to book a free consultation call. No payment, no pressure. We work out if we're the right fit and which package suits you best.
Are there limited spots for in-person coaching?
Yes. In-person coaching at Fitness Cartel Kippa-Ring has limited availability. Online coaching has more flexibility but I keep my client numbers manageable to protect the quality of coaching everyone receives.
