   One on one

Confused or frustrated with your progress? Need a push to get you to lift that extra few kg’s? Want to go heavy
but afraid without a good spotter? I offer all sorts of training, indoor, outdoor, strength and cardiovascular.
In the gym or at home, whatever suits you... Read more

The real secret to weight loss (body fat reduction) is strength training. If you are doing the same exercise and weight every week you will most likely look the same next week and the week after. So we have to increase the size of your engine (muscles) and you will burn more fuel doing your day to day activities. A record of all your weights and reps will be kept so you can track your progress.

Service includes:
Initial 60 min induction includes:
- Questions for goal setting,
- Nutrition talk and instruction,
- Blood pressure and girths,
- Postural assessment,
- Progress photos (on request),
- Personal Training sessions are 60 min 1-5 times a week depending on your goal.

 

These services are offered by most PT’s, but I’ll make sure you understand why they are important.
I’ll explain what your blood pressure measurement means and how to improve it. Establish a baseline set of girth measurements to see if you have made any gains or losses.

A postural assessment followed by explanation as to why they exist and how to improve them.
Armed with this information i will make sure you understand the results so you can evaluate your priorities and take steps with or without me to gain a better quality of life.

If some of these services are something that interests you then I would love to catch up for a chat and we can see what it is you’re after and what kind of steps you should take to achieve it.

   Group training

Want to train with some friends? Group training is a great way to share exercise with friends and family.
It’s also great for relationships as training with your partner brings you closer together... Read more

After an hour working out together, it will feel great as you will all know what you just did, how hard you pushed it and the buzz you get from being flushed with endorphins. It is also very affordable as the more people that train, the cheaper it becomes for the individual.

Training can be both indoor and outdoor.
Whether it’s a high intensity circuit style session or a more concentrated rep for rep strength training session, you will learn a lot of new things.

Another advantage of training this way would be to learn how some new exercises, how to spot effectively and break through plateaus that training alone have created.

This is very popular for people that want the benefits of personal training as far as the knowledge, experience and safety, whilst also being more cost effective individually. This leads to more frequent training and faster results.

Service includes:
- Initial 60 min induction to understand what everyone is after, likes and dislikes, injuries and other restrictions and most importantly what the ultimate goal you’d like to achieve,
- Training sessions may range from 60-90 min, 1-5 times a week depending on your goal and number of participants.

   Contest preparation

"Kristian Porthill never ceases to amaze me with his outstanding condition contest after contest.
Backing up world class conditioning within the same year of competition is remarkable.
It shows great determination, perseverance and knowledge. Keep up the great work Kris!"

Nick Jones, NABBA Mr World

I’m now offering contest preparation. With the contest calendar usually set for May or October shows there is
nearly always a show to be prepping for. I know all the ins and outs of trying to incorporate day to day life into
the hectic schedule that entering a contest can bring.... Read more

Sodium loading, carb loading, depletion, crap loading, clean carbs, shots of Jim Beam/Rum, jelly beans, niacin tabs etc. I’ve seen it all both here and internationally.

Hair spray, dream tan, hot stuff, contest colour, cooking spray, rollers or brushes where do you start? If these are things you would like to know more about then I’d love to help.

If this is your first show then let’s start off with a great first showing. If you’re a seasoned veteran that is looking for that extra conditioning to get you over the top, then there are a lot of tips and secrets that I’d love to share with you.

My contest prep plans vary depending on how much you would like to get help with. Maybe you just need to be given a diet or you need someone to give you a basic plan. Or maybe you want a comprehensive pack that covers, diet, training, posing, tanning, and the infamous last 48 hours before you get on stage where it all can come undone.

   Nutrition and Supplements

Want to know what to eat, and when to eat it? Want to go shopping and have the complex food
labeling/contents explained?.... Read more

When it comes to diet it’s as simple as - Energy in, energy out. The scales need to balance and then the changes occur.

Everyone has different likes and dislikes when it comes to food. Nutrient timing is essential. Eat the right food at the wrong time and it is no longer the right food!


Service includes:
- Initial 60 min food chat and food diary instruction, explanation on what certain foods do and how the body uses it,
- Follow up 30 min adjustments and modifications based on progress.

   Program writing

Need a program to follow at your gym? Is your current program boring and not yielding results? There are often
a lot of gyms with a lot of useless or non practical equipment. Sometimes trainers will give you a stock standard
routine without really considering your goals..... Read more

I can help you arrange your work out plan to best suit your time and your ultimate goal.
I can offer variations so you never have to have the same work out twice. I can also give you variations on supersets and body part splits that will really give a shock to your body.

I’ll not only demonstrate how to use it, but explain why certain equipment is repetitive and therefore unnecessary. Most importantly I will explain to you which rep range will promote the best form of growth, when you need to use low reps/heavy weight and high reps/light.

Myofibrillar hypertrophy versus is sarcoplasmic hypertrophy. Lactate tolerance and how the burn may impede your strength/muscle building goals. “Peripheral heart action” and how to incorporate it into your training. Why good old “back and biceps” together in the same work out is counterproductive.

If any of these things interest you or you would like to learn some more successful world champion building advice then feel free to contact me to learn more.

Service includes:
- Initial 60 min induction to discuss current training, contra-indications, goals, training preference/method/split,
- 60 min (dependent on split) program show demonstrating exercise technique, sets and reps.

   Motivational speaking and seminars

I offer presentations or interactive seminar for people wanting to promote their facilities/products or
encourage productivity in students or business..... Read more

Through my years as a senior course presenter with the Australian Institute of Fitness I am able to deliver insightful and educational seminars on a healthy lifestyle and exercise.
As a successful multiple world champion and Australian Legend in bodybuilding I can also offer motivational presentations and provide tools for both groups and individuals to set and achieve goals.


Sometimes sitting and listening to someone talk may not be enough though. Maybe you would like your organisation to get a little hands on? Whether it’s simple games or more physical exercise challenges I’m sure I can help build rapport within a group as well as set up individuals to excel in performance in both work and home lives.
