100% recommend Jack! I competed in university varsity athletics, but stopped exercising after my playing career. In the decade since, I failed numerous times to recommit to an exercise program. That changed when I started working with Jack. In three months, I've hit new PRs, stayed injury-free, and rediscovered my excitement for working out. Whether it's his encouragement and motivation, programming, or focus on mechanics and form, Jack's passion for helping his clients is always on display, and I look forward to continuing to work with him and push toward new goals.

I have never felt I needed a personal trainer until recently. I have been a very active person through my entire life but found myself stagnating in my late 30s. I have been seeing Jack at Iron Mind Athletics and it has changed the way I feel. He helps correct my form, my mindset, my effort level and also helps me stay accountable to a program that stays dynamic and interesting. In under a year I've lost 20lbs and had substantial recomposition of the remaining 190lbs. Thanks Iron Mind!!!

Working with Jack has been a great experience. His knowledge of exercise mechanics and motivational attitude drove me in each workout to push hard and get the most out of my myself. Highly recommend training with him!

I have been training at Forge gym with the Iron Mind Athletics Founder Jack Li for nearly four years, under the guidance and mentorship of his exercise program. Jack is a phenominal trainer with a plethora of technical and nutritional knowledge under his belt, and I am honoured to be under his diligent care. I have seen a substantial development in my strength and endurance whilst using the program he provided, and I am extremely proud of the progress I was able to achieve through his efforts.

Thanks to the amazing advice provided by Jack, I am the strongest and fittest I have ever been. I signed up for personal training in order to get more explosive for rugby and Jack has helped me get there and so much more! I cannot recommend Iron Mind enough.

Excellent personal and bespoke training for all your fitness goals. The experience and friendliness of Jack will ensure you have alot of fun and achieving your overall goals.

Easily one of the top trainers in Victoria.

What started out as some strength conditioning for my marathon training transitioned into a great journey with Jack on learning about strength, mobility, flexibility and form. I continue to learn a great deal from him about different exercises and things I can do to help improve my form and my physical health. He has also helped me to train and improve while we adapt to any limitations in my mobility. Jack's help has allowed me to understand my own body better, and has made exercise and physical wellness a higher priority so that it benefits my long term health.

I've been training with Jack for over three years now, starting from barely knowing how to barbell squat, deadlift, and bench to joining the 500 club two years later! Over time working together, and through Jack's close attention and custom-made programs, I've become stronger and more confident -- often surprising myself with what I have accomplished. I highly recommend Jack to anyone, whether starting out as a beginner (like me, we started with beginner-friendly workouts and progressed in difficulty), working through injuries (he will use his extensive knowledge to adapt the workout), or if you're already a pro (not me, but I've seen him train with other impressive athletes in the gym). I'm looking forward to seeing what other positive changes I can experience continuing to train with Jack!

Jack is very professional and experienced. As someone with knee injuries from playing hockey competitively, he’s been very understanding of my strengths and weaknesses when developing my programs while still pushing me to improve weekly. I’ve gotten stronger than I’ve ever been in short periods of time. Than you Jack!

Jack is extremely attentive to proper form and injury prevention. He has a talent for building strength and conditioning programs that match my goals and is always friendly and professional. If you want a great trainer who can build a strength and conditioning program tailored to your needs and train you in proper form, Jack is your guy!

I have trained with Jack for the past 1.5 years, and the positive impact has been transformative. Jack is very professional and experienced in different approaches to achieving our goals. He doesn't just focus on physical fitness; he has a unique ability to identify and help you push through weaknesses. This increased physical strength has directly translated into better focus and stamina in my professional life. If you are looking for a trainer who understands the connection between physical health and performance, I highly recommend Jack. He has not only become a great trainer of mine but also a great friend!

Jack is a great trainer! Responsive, smart and patient. I’ve noticed a substantial difference and I’m not even training that often. He pushes me to test my limits without being a jerk about it, which is refreshing. I’ve had trainers whose only goal is to make their clients as tired as possible without much strategy and everything with Jack feels intentional and goal-oriented. Highly recommend.

Jack is an excellent trainer for all levels. I started as a complete beginner in April 2025, training with him weekly (plus two solo sessions). I’ve gained strength, confidence, and a solid exercise repertoire through his programming. His clear guidance and observation have been invaluable, setting me up for continued progress.

I turned from zero to beast within a few months, the best coach and personal trainer in Victoria by far.

We’ve trained with Jack for over 7 months, initially with a plan to build our knowledge and technique for weightlifting while focusing on specific goals. Jack was able to adapt our program to support us both in achieving our personal goals. We would highly recommend Jack as a trainer! He makes the training session fun & effective.

Jack has been training me in past 6 months, i have improved strength and lost weight at the same time. We always have a great time working out. Congratulations on your achievement.

Working with Jack has been fantastic. Over the past 6 months I’ve become stronger and improved my conditioning. He really helped me learn the basic movements and perfect my form so that I can lift heavier and heavier without ever risking injury. I’m definitely doing things that I never thought I’d be able to achieve. It’s also really enjoyable working with Jack. He’s a lovely person with a great sense of humour and he really cares about the success of his clients. Couldn’t recommend Jack more!!! Would give 10 stars if an option

Jack is an amazing personal trainer. He has an attention to detail that means he'll have your form up to shape in no time to get you the most out of your exercise and your time with him. I did Olympic lifting with him for several months and felt a sense of confidence that I had not had in the several years that I have been training on-and-off with those lifts. Not only is he a great trainer, but also a very sociable person with great humor, a curated outlook on life, and a great amount of care for his clients. I highly recommend him if your looking to get strong.

Thank you Jack for your training. I have significantly increased my squat bench and deadlift. I would highly recommend Jack as a personal trainer, he’s very knowledgeable on form and technique. You’ll learn a lot from him. He being strict will motivate you to do your best.

My experience training with Jack Li has been nothing short of extraordinary. Jack's expertise and personalized approach have propelled my fitness journey to new heights. Right from our initial session, Jack took the time to understand my goals and limitations, crafting a program that perfectly balanced challenge and attainability. Jack's ability to motivate is truly exceptional. Each session is dynamic, pushing me beyond my comfort zone while ensuring impeccable form and safety. Regular assessments and program tweaks reflect Jack's meticulous attention to detail, resulting in remarkable progress. Beyond exercise, Jack offers invaluable nutrition and lifestyle guidance, creating a holistic approach to wellness. Jack's sincere care and unwavering support have been pivotal in my journey. Training with Jack Li has not only amplified my strength and endurance but also instilled a newfound confidence in my abilities. I wholeheartedly recommend Jack to anyone seeking a transformative fitness experience.

Jack is a great trainer who is focused on your goals but pushes you to the max and within reasons. He has helped me reach my goals and beyond with incredible patience and resiliency. If you’re ever looking for a trainer, he’s your guy!
