I have been coaching with Chris now for almost a year. I have really enjoyed his style of coaching and we have achieved some pretty epic results with my physique since having Chris as my coach. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to level up there physique.
Not only has Chris’s coaching completely transformed me physically, I have never been better mentally. His care and attention to detail is obvious in everything he does. Him and Val have endless support, nothing is too much for them. My training has always been perfectly adapted in every season, and I am supported to make my own choices and felt strength in them. The whole team is incredible. I can’t more highly recommend Bold Physique.
Chris is an incredible mentor. From day one, I could tell how personalized and holistic his coaching approach is, making sure every part of my growth – both in the gym and mentally – is covered. His guidance has been invaluable, and I’m not just getting stronger physically, I’m becoming a more disciplined person overall. I’m also super grateful to Val for welcoming me into Team Bold Physique and always supporting me along the way. Proud to be a Team Bold Physique athlete!
Being with Bold Physique has really changed my life for the good I feel more supported than ever before, just like being a part of the family. And if I screw up like we all do, as we are all human I always get support a little hard word and help to keep going. My mental health since being with Chris has become more who I am as the person I use to be. Also the food and workout plans are so good and help you get creative! Just overall I cannot speak highly enough of him and this team exciting for the future to come!
Where to start about recommending Chris bold as a fitness trainer.
He is a fitness guru and knows a lot about a lot in the fitness field.
Great to know him as a trainer but with actually working close beside him, my knowledge and also my training has gone through the roof. His guidelines with training and nutrition is top notch and he would be the very first person I would seek for assistance. Very professional, approachable and will give you his experienced time and effort to anyone with any goals, being first time in the gym to an complete athlete.
Number 1 coach!
Chris was coaching me from a amateur to an IFBB bikini PRO. He is really passionate about bodybuilding and helped me through a very hard time when I try to get my pro card. He knows about what I need to bring on the stage and how I can do better. I couldn’t find my better image without him. I just can’t thank enough to Chris.
I trained with Chris for a year in the lead up to my first bodybuilding show and it was the fittest I’ve ever been. He was incredibly knowledgeable and motivational even when i really didn’t want to work out. He was able to get me working out at an incredibly high level every session and it was the most motivated I’ve ever been with a trainer. I highly recommend working with Chris since he is able to get results i never thought possible
Chris has always been super caring, helpful and knowledgeable when it comes to his passion – being anything health and fitness related! Chris Has always been open and honest with myself and I appreciate the effort put in highly recommend and always have time for ya
He has the expertise and knowledge in body building training and torture (sometimes it seems they are one and the same); he finds new ways to push the body to improve and grow, providing alternative exercises due to injuries and gave valuable feedback during training leading up to the competition date. Thanks Chris!
Pain, torture, adds more weight’s, profanities, more pain, more torture, more profanity, gleeful laughter at the one being tortured, more pain…… and then death!
This is, from the outside what a Session with Chris looks like…. however there is much, much more. There is the ear that is always there to listen, the voice that motivates, the ability to entertain when you need to focus and the humour to pull you away from the reality of there being 50 more hip thrusts left to do.
I cannot thank Chris enough for what he does as trainer. He has kept me invested and pushed me when I needed. Once the torture was over he always followed up if he thought he may have actually killed you, cue Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness!!!!
Have worked with Chris for just about five years now. In that time, I have trained him to be methodical, disciplined, empathetic to the different preferences of training, and sympathetic to the different styles of client (whingers like myself and non-whingers like no one). Most of all, I have given him Pride certification with a pinch of fabulosity as required. (He even hung up a rainbow flag in the gym last pride season without me beckoning!) *jokes* He has always been all of those things, and an awesome trainer.Chris adds a wry sense of humour to his sessions and most importantly, never gets agro or judgemental. What stands out is his very common sense and mature approach to helping me achieve my goals. Reflected in his method is wisdom gained from his years of experience in the industry, his thorough understanding of psychological health, and of course from all the songs he knows from a time that predates my birth! His understanding and flexibility have been especially important for me going through GP training. The sessions are always fun and I have definitely seen results. I am happy to recommend Master Bold!!
Chris is a wealth of knowledge and experience in fitness, nutrition, and all things competition. A lot of fun to work with too, he knows how to make me sweat!
I was referred to Chris for rehab (prolapsed disc)From the beginning he gained my trust by meeting with me and having a consultation. He understood the psychological and physical impact of my injury and individualised my training. The pace of the training allowed me to further trust in him and pushed me to the point where I was confident in completing movements that I never thought I would be able to achieve again. In Covid 19 I have the strength and the confidence to exercise without fear because Chris made me stronger and showed me how I can be active without further injury. A big thank you
Always a killer workout. Please train hard by yourself (around 4 weeks minimum) to warm up then get prepared for a huge workout that will leave you sore for a few days.
Want results look no further then CHRIS – but you’ll be made to work hard, push your body beyond what you thought it could but you’ll get the results you planned out from the start – also at the end of the day you’ll have a coach that you can trust, that will look after you and your body and will keep the EGO at the door.The knowledge I have learnt since knowing CHRIS is ridiculous and he continues to share it.
Great workout environment. Chris has an extensive knowledge base. I highly recommend him for anyone who is serious about achieving results.
I read that someone referred to Chris as a GURU. It is true, he really is!I joined Calibre being a bit sceptical because I came from CrossFit where things are hard and fast. Calibre is controlled & heavy! I was not used to this, but fast forward 3 months and I now can hand on heart say, I wish I found Chris sooner. I’m stronger, lifting heavier and have found the drive and motivation to train 4+ times a week.
Chris genuinely cares about you as a person. You’re not just another dollar to him. You become part of the Bold family and he looks out for you where he can.
Chris Bold provides a great training environment. He is down to earth, very pragmatic, experienced, knowledgeable and incredibly supportive. He has this superhuman ability to know what level each individual is at.If you haven’t had a chance to check them out yet, I’d highly recommend you give him a go!
