I feel so privileged to have been a part of the Paramount Family since they first began 21 years ago. I say ‘family’ as this fitness centre is no ordinary gym. From the moment you walk through the door you realise this is not just a local neighbourhood gym. Brent, Reece and their families have built a welcoming community that treat all with respect and focus not just on fitness but physical and mental well being as well. The gym offers a wide variety of programs that cater for everyone. There is always an alternative if you are unable to participate in a certain exercise. The gym offers fantastic group training classes that will challenge you and keep you motivated as no two classes are ever the same. They offer other programs such as Bootcamp, Body Transformation and MyZone challenges, LIFT which is a heavy weights program for women and of course professional training sessions with some of the most talented and respected trainers in the business . These programs are designed for members to work at their own pace and to build upon their own abilities. Paramount has also been the cornerstone of our local community and this has been highlighted in the work they have put in over this CoVid period to ensure members keep fit and healthy. Brent and Reece have worked tirelessly to bring the training sessions into members and non members homes through live streaming classes and challenges that you can do at the time or retrospectively. There have been virtual Bootcamp challenges, constant updates from the guys and a lot of laughs along the way to keep the morale of their members as high as possible. They also selflessly lent equipment out to ensure members had the the best opportunities to train at home. They have also magnanimously opened up their online platform to family and friends of members free of charge throughout these lockdown periods. This is why I refer to Paramount as family, as they sincerely care about people. I can’t recommend Paramount more highly. I am proud to call Paramount my second home.

If you’re looking for a new gym that ticks all the boxes, I highly recommend Paramount. The owners of 20+ years (Brent, Reece & Caz) run all the classes, so there isn’t a high turnover of inexperienced staff who don’t know you, or your fitness levels. They are all extremely experienced and knowledgeable trainers, who are also invested in you achieving results and enjoying yourself, and genuinely know every member by name. They have a high retention of long term and committed members, who are all very friendly and welcoming to new faces. If you need assistance with your technique (or lack thereof), they are thoughtful and discrete, and will cover their microphone whilst giving you directions during the class. They even provide microfibres clothes and spray for cleaning purposes in each class, rather than a single use wet wipe (like many other gyms). The pricing is super reasonable and flexible, and they don’t have contracts that lock you in. Highly recommended!

I discovered Paramount during the COVID lockdown period as a friend convinced me to join their free online classes. Post COVID lockdown, 18 months ago, I ditched my fitness first membership of 10 years which I hardly ever used and joined Paramount. I am loving it so much, attending classes regularly and starting to get pretty fit!! Paramount has a great relaxed and friendly vibe due to the way Brent, Reece and Caz run the gym and take the classes. They don't take themselves too seriously and have a unique ability to have the entire class in stiches with laughter whilst challenging us at the same time all to ensure we are getting the most out of our workouts! These guys really care about their members and will go out of their way to make sure we have everything we need! The Paramount app is a simple and easy way to book into the classes and regular instagram posts and emails keep you updated with any program changes or news... So easy!!

If you're looking for a great gym culture and motivating classes, look no further than Paramount Health and Fitness. The owners and trainers are absolute experts in their field and are also shining examples of how to maintain health and fitness as an ongoing lifestyle. What I love the most is the way the trainers customise every session. There's a consistent weekly timetable, but no class is ever the same. For example each class always begins with a thorough explanation and demonstration which is super helpful for keeping your form in check. Whilst training you can expect fun upbeat choons, motivational encouragement, and some epic dad jokes. It's also not uncommon for many to grab a coffee together after a morning sesh. That's the awesome community vibe you get at this gym. I couldn't recommend Paramount Health and Fitness more highly. Come and see for yourself!

I feel privileged to be a foundation member of Paramount since it began 22 years ago! I think my attendance longevity speaks volumes! Prior to Paramount I had attended other gyms but felt I was just another number without the individual attention that I receive at Paramount, that caters for my fitness needs. ParamountHFC has become a second family to me. The group classes led by Brent and Reece ,the most experienced of trainers and great guys …have become almost legendary. No two classes are ever the same and I can guarantee you will receive a fabulous workout in a fun and friendly atmosphere. I’m now in my mid 60’s but I’ve never felt out of place in the group classes . Thank you ParamountHFC for keeping me fit, healthy and motivated over all these years! You are indeed 5 stars all the way!

I’ve tried different gyms over the years but never found one I felt comfortable in. That was until I found Paramount. I’ve been associated with Paramount in one way or another for close to 20 years now and have participated in personal training, bootcamp, body transformation, and various other events they run. And now, I’m a member. Paramount isn’t just a gym, it’s a community. Somewhere you can walk in and just know people. Brent, Reece & the rest of the Paramount team are highly experienced having been in the industry for many years, and are always looking to change things up & offer something new & innovative. If you're going to try a gym, don’t just try any gym, try Paramount, and experience the difference. Real people, real results, unreal culture!

I’ve been a member for nearly 5 years and can honestly say Brent, Reece and the whole team at Paramount are awesome! The classes change every time so your body can’t get used to the same thing. It’s always a challenge but there is a good variety of classes so it doesn’t have to be high intensity all the time. There is a great gym upstairs and cardio equipment downstairs so you can do your own thing too. Plus the classes are great for fat loss and toning. Community is a big deal at Paramount and everyone is always so friendly and welcoming. It’s not the type of place you’re going to get looked at and judged (you know those gyms) everyone works hard, gets ugly and smiles at the end. Wouldn’t go anywhere else!

I have been coming to Paramount for classes or PT (or participating in their programs like Bootcamp) for the past 20 years. I couldn't recommend Brent, Caz, Reece and the team more highly. They provide a sense of community - and at all times I feel like a valued member of that community. They go above and beyond to help me achieve my goals (sometimes just getting myself to the gym is an achievement in itself). They always remember everybody's name and make sure you are pushing yourself to be better, fitter, stronger... whatever your goal is. Get yourself to Paramount - no matter what your age or fitness levels are, they will make you feel welcome!

I've been a member of Paramount since 2010 and there are others who have been members longer than me! That says something about the place, the people and the culture...it's AMAZING! They have changed with the times, and they have survived the toughest of times. There is always something new on the horizon, but you can always rely on the 25+ classes a week to push you to your limits. Brent, Reece & Caz know their stuff and they have created an amazing environment for those of us lucky enough to have stumbled upon this gem in Union Road. Can't recommend them highly enough

Paramount is a fitness haven that has exceeded my expectations in every aspect. Having been a member for almost 10 years and having 2 kids in the time as a member, Brent and Reece have always been accomodating, friendly, knowledgeable, and push you to achieve your best self. The sense of community is exceptional. Whether you're a seasoned fitness enthusiast or just starting your journey to a healthier lifestyle, I wholeheartedly recommend Paramount Health and Fitness. Prepare to unleash your inner beast and embark on an inspiring fitness journey like no other.

Brent and Reece are at the heart of this incredible fitness community, Paramount Health and Fitness. With their expansive knowledge, experience, energy, positivity, and guidance you will be catered for - Beginner to Advanced. Paramount's personal approach makes it the ultimate inner city hub for fitness and friendship. Awesome sessions that are constantly refreshed to keep you interested. Engaging club challenges, courses, fitness tests, theme days. Paramount offers it all! Build strength. Belong. Thrive! Thank you Brent and Reece for your authentic approach!

I have recently started attending Paramount and have enjoyed it from the start. The gym itself caters to all levels of fitness and has a wide range of classes to pick from. Whether you've been going to the gym for a while or are just a beginner on your fitness journey, you'll find support, encouragement, and a sense of community at Paramount. The trainers are all very experienced and very accommodating, getting to know all members personally and offering guidance, advice (and motivation) when needed. I would recommend Paramount to anyone looking to get fit.

I have been a member of Paramount Health & Fitness for close to 10 years now and I can honestly say that every single class has been not only motivational but different, challenging and made me feel incredible! The members are always so lovely and so helpful and it has a really family feel about it…..it really is it’s own community! Brent and Reece are the absolute best trainers and always have its members best interest at heart. They go above and beyond “just owning a gym”, it’s a family, a lifestyle and a passion. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!

Paramount Gym and it's team are part of my day to day life having now been a member for 20+ years. I love the atmosphere, the classes (always something different), the support & guidance, the friendships and importantly both the mental & physical aspects of regularly going. I wouldn't have been a member for this long if it didn't tick all these boxes. To be honest I see myself as very lucky having this gym in my neighbourhood - thanks guys for all the amazing work you continue to do. You are the BEST!

This is one of the best gyms I’ve ever been to. The classes are always varied and challenging, Brent and Reece are lovely and have great banter throughout the sessions and I am forever amazed how organised the classes are! The room is a decent size and equipment is in good condition, there is plenty to go around and it’s a super hygienic place. I’m fairly new to this gym but not to exercise and have noticed great improvements in the short time I’ve been there. Thanks so much guys!

Paramount is high up on keeping members of all ages motivated with a variety of group class sessions and different programs throughout the year. Brent, Caz and Reece possess world of knowledge about human body and what really works to get the results. I also applaud their community spirit and charitable side. I first joined in 2003, had 3 kids since, and I still feel fit now in my mid 40’s. And it doesn't work just for the body, but more importantly for the mind too.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I wasn't a 'gym person' and now I can't stay away. Lots of places say "whatever your level" but it's true here. Just see the members - total range of shapes, sizes and ages but all enjoying it just the same. If you want to just move the body but are intimidated by classic gyms, come. If you are already fit and want to challenge yourself, come. If you like people, come. Also, really handy app to help you plan what you want to do weeks ahead.

Brent, Reece and Caz offer a truly local, friendly, welcoming and physically challenging gym experience. The classes are always different, engaging and full of people working hard. I go to the 6am classes and it’s a great way to start the day. Paramount is a great supporter of the local community and genuinely friendly people. Definitely a personal, focused team who work hard to make work outs enjoyable and worth getting up at 5.30am for!!

Great range of hiit and general fitness classes held at convenient times throughout the day with people of all fitness levels. Classes are always well attended and staff are extremely helpful and friendly with an emphasis on building a community. Also includes a dedicated gym for those preferring to exercise alone or following their own programme Great quality equipment and a safe, clean environment, very highly recommended!

Love this place! I've done many different group training classes, formats, you name it over the years but this is definitely the most fun I've had whilst busting my hump. Reece and Brent mix their knowledge and experience with a solid dose of dad-joke humour to keep us all energised even when we are feeling the pain. The gym is really well kept, ultra-hygienic and with great equipment throughout. Highly recommended.

There are plenty of gyms that provide classes that might challenge and get you fit but what separates Paramount to other gyms is the people, from the people running the show bringing the sparkle - Reece and Brent making tough seem enjoyable to the people taking the classes who all put in and sweat with a smile and treat everyone like a big family with their encouragement and friendships that started at Paramount.

Paramount health and fitness, are the most caring bunch of trainers and cater to your individual needs .. no matter what your health needs are for a fitter and healthier you, they are there to help .. Brent and Reece take all the time you need to help you in fitness journey.. classes are varied and always safe .. under their watchful eye .. the space is a great size too. I’m so glad I walked into this club ..

After a few years considering, I took the plunge and joined Paramount nine months ago and it's turned out to be a great decision. The classes are never the same, always challenging but enjoyable as well. Reece, Brent and Caz know their members well and ensure that they are catering for all levels. After a relatively short time. I think that they may have me the fittest I have ever been. Thanks Guys!

Old-school style high-intensity training that works! Brent and Reece are fun trainers, excellent motivators and offer flexibility for workouts to be modified as needed for injury or pregnancy. I felt comfortable and welcomed at their classes. No issues with pausing or cancelling my membership for whatever reason. Fabulous workouts that make you leave feeling better about yourself!

Paramount health and fitness truely is the best gym I’ve ever been to. I love the group training classes, especially SAS (strength and sculpt). The owners are super friendly and encouraging, and really knowledgeable about training. The culture at paramount is exceptional, and really integrated with the local union road community. Highly recommend paramount to everyone!

Paramount is more of a community than a gym. Brent, Reece, Caz and the team make sure to include all abilities and fitness levels and their classes are challenging but fun and full of variety. Classes are definitely Paramount's main attraction, but there's plenty of cardio and weights equipment for other workouts. Simply the best gym I've been a member of.

such a welcoming environment at paramount. being a new member i always feel comfortable to ask questions, and the crew are never shy to assist with form and feedback during a session. all the classes are challenging but tailored to whatever weight ability you have. i can always count on the team to work up a sweat! love it and will definitely continue!!

The best gym I have ever been a member of! Such a great variety of classes! I know I'll always get an amazing workout. Brent, Reece & Caz are all so supportive and encouraging, they push you to always go that bit further & I'd definitely say, since joining the gym, I'm the fittest I've ever been! They've created such a wonderful community at Paramount!

Could not recommend Paramount more highly. It is truly a unique gym, in that the quality training you get at Paramount is unlike anywhere else. I, myself have been a member for 10+ years and my love for health and fitness has not wavered since. Get down to Paramount to work hard and join a community of amazing welcoming trainers and members.

I'm so glad to have found this local gym and would highly recommend it to anyone. All fitness levels are accommodated, no 2 classes are ever the same and there's heaps of extras available if you're interested such as PT and BootCamp. Firstly, it's run by an awesome crew who keep everyone motivated and energised throughout the exercises.

Best gym in Melbourne. Brent, Reece and Caz are amazing trainers with over 25 years experience. Always encouraging when you workout and helpful with proper techniques and method to ensure you get the best results. Thanks guys for always taking care of your clients and your friendly personality. Jase and I love training at Paramount.

I absolutely love going to Paramount a few times a week for their MET-CON and SAS classes. Brent and Reece keep their classes fresh and engaging with a great variety of exercises to challenge your fitness. There's no egos and everyone is there to have a great time and support one another. Try them out you won't regret it!

My wife and I have been members at Paramount for around 6-7 years. The sessions are always creative, the comoraderie second to none and our fitness results have added zest to life and given us the ability to tackle challenges beyond our age expectations. The staff team are friendly and committed. Awesome place to train.

This gym is awesome. I have been a member at Paramount for 7 years and every session is different. The trainers, Brent, Reece and Caz are all invested into making every workout challenging but also fun. They have created a true gym ‘club ‘ atmosphere where the focus is on it’s members not on number of memberships.

The best gym in Melbourne hands down. The owners and trainers are welcoming, motivating and supportive. Such a fun and positive vibe. The workouts are challenging and different every time. They are meticulous is keeping the gym organised and clean and have all the right protocols in place for a safe workout.

I can't say enough about this gym! The convenience of having it right across from my work is a huge plus. After a year of contemplating, I finally joined. Reece and Brent, the trainers, are incredibly experienced. The workouts are intense but the results are totally worth it. Highly recommend!

I’ve trained for 15+ years in a number of gyms and can honestly say that Paramount Health & Fitness is up there with the best of them. Brent and Reece are professional, knowledgeable and super passionate coaches, and most importantly make training FUN! Highly highly recommend.

Great gym Brent and Reece are professional instructors. If you are looking to train hard with real people who don't judge you this is the place for you. Give paramount a try today. There is a fantastic 30 day trial offer for new members. Check it out you won't be disappointed

Really impressed, so much so I signed up this morning after the intro offer. Classes have a ton of variety with knowledgeable, enthusiastic instructors who pull you aside to correct technique where needed great community vibe too, glad to become a member! …

I have been training at Paramount for over 10 years now it is easily the best gym environment I have seen catering for people of all fitness levels It is a very inclusive club, professionally run and very supportive of the members. A real community focused gym.

Great fitness club! Classes incorporate cardio and strength. Trainers are great and there to push you if you want but also just happy for you to go at your own pace. Non judgemental environment and great facilities, makes exercise enjoyable and fun!

I joined Para when I moved to the area and have not left since! True testament to making you accountable, active, and motivated. I have met people that are my dear friends through Para while working out, another testament to what community is.

Simply the best Gym in Melbourne. Brent, Reece & Kaz do an amazing job of motivating people at all levels of fitness. Great instructors all around, fantastic and friendly environment and it is a pleasure to participate in all their classes.

Gym culture is something I was so intimidated by but everyone at this gym is SO NICE. Brent and Reece learnt my name within the week- the sense of community is so nice. Classes are probably the best I've been to. Genuinely love coming here!

Brent, Reece and Caz have created an inclusive and supportive gym. They are experienced and knowledgeable and provide engaging and challenging classes. Most of all they are sensational people that care. Can't recommend Paramount enough!!

A great, friendly gym, that has an accepting of 'all fitness levels and types' culture. The class times and styles are diverse and the variety suits all needs - whether that is weight bearing or cardio fitness. Highly reccomend.

Paramount is a enjoyable place to workout. The classes are challenging and different each time and the atmosphere is great. I have been a member there for over 10 years after leaving a soulless gym. This is the very opposite.

Fantastic gym, One guy has big arms and no calves (You know who you are Reeceys), the other guy is as honest as the day is long (Brently), and the Lady is lovely as well (Kaz). Keeping Ascot Vale and surrounding suburbs fit

This place turned me from a covid couch potato into the fittest I’ve ever been. Love Brent and Reece’s classes, I definitely push myself more than I would on my own, and the variety of sessions keeps it interesting

Best gym run by dedicated & passionate guys who have created a unique culture where you work hard, get results and meet great people. The Paramount Community is so much more than just a gym. Highly recommend.

Best gym in the West! The crew at Paramount make it fun while still keeping you accountable on your fitness and/or training journey. Always on hand to give advice. Cleanest gym i have ever been to too!

We have been going to Paramount for over 5 years and we absolutely love it. Brent and Reece are amazing trainers and have created a real community atmosphere. Plus it is fantastic value for money!

Paramount has a great community atmosphere, with welcoming trainers and member base! Brent and Rhys keep the classes fun (but tough!) and easily adaptable to any fitness level. Highly recommend!!

The classes at Paramount are fun, varied and sure to give you a good workout! Reece and Brent are always energetic, welcoming and organised. Great way to meet some of the local community too!

Welcoming environment, with a true local feel. A gym owned and led by an experienced team, who are always looking for new ways to motivate members & help them achieve their fitness goals.

This is the best gym I have ever been a member of. I recently moved out of the suburb but still come to the gym. Their tagline says it all Real People. Real Results. Unreal Culture.

I been going here for about 2 1/2 years, best gym I have ever been to, love the variety and help, fun and friendships you form. It's certainly helped me live a healthier lifestyle.

I couldn't find a Gym like this one. I absolutely love the people, the culture and the building. There are variety of classes available for all levels of fitness.

I absolutely LOVE this place! The team at Paramount are the BEST! They are fun, motivating, and clearly love what they do! I'm so happy to have found this gym!

Great gym. I would highly recommend joining. They work you hard if you are up for it but you can also scale back if you are injured or just starting out.

Best gym ever! No others have compared. Love the culture, friendly members, awesome trainers and programs. Do yourself a favor and check it out….. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Absolutely love Paramount. Classes are always different and interesting. Super challenging but so good. Reece, Brent and Caz are phenomenal instructors.

Awesome culture and awesome team cannot recommend more highly, the team can take your fitness to a new level thanks Brent, Kaz and Reece

Started going when I weighed 80kg. 20 plus years on and now weigh 90 kg but Reece reassures me that muscle is heavier then fat …

Super friendly staff. I just joined for 3 walk in classes. Sometimes a bit overwhelming with so many people, but still enjoyed it.

An outstanding mix of authenticity, fun and technical knowledge makes Paramount the best health and fitness outfit around.

Best gym I have ever been to!! The trainers/owners are fantastic love the classes it’s a fantastic culture Pamela
