FAQ

Asked and answered clearly.

The practice

Who do you typically work with?

Most clients are (time-poor) professionals and business owners around Brisbane CBD who want visible results with no wasted time. However, the practice is built on standards, so anyone committed to the process is welcome.

How experienced is the coach?

Isaac Furlani is a certified coach who has trained clients directly for 11 years. Furlani Fitness is a single-coach private practice: every session, you'll work with Isaac directly.

I find gyms intimidating. Will that be a problem?

It's a common fear and it fades faster than you'd expect. The fear is largely an 'illusion of inexperience': you assume everyone around you knows what they're doing. In reality, most people, even the very fit, train with shocking form and waste a lot of time/effort. Once you're taught properly, you'll be confident within ~3 weeks. My benchmark is that you're coached well enough that you start noticing who around the gym has bad form.

The coaching

What does coaching actually include?

You receive solutions, feedback, and direct attention from an experienced coach holding a decade of custom solutions.

This includes: blood test review, DNA analysis review, biohacking protocols, nootropic guidance, peptide education, training, measurements, program review and adjustments, technique corrections, personalised warm-ups, nutritional analysis and planning, supplement advice, massage release work, posture and mobility work, and psychology for self-improvement.

Should I choose 30 or 45 minute sessions?

The 30-min option is great for focused fat-loss work and people newer to training.

The 45-minute option allows the volume needed for muscle gain alongside fat loss, and also gives us more time to learn more complex movements.

Which one suits you depends on your goal and time budget. During the consultation we can clarify and ensure it fits you properly first.

How often will we train together?

Clients train between one and five times per week, depending on their goals, schedule, deadlines, and budget. People usually maintain a consistent weekly rhythm, but a few also change times week to week.

Do you offer online coaching?

Yes. Programming, nutrition and progress tracking through the Furlani Fitness app, reviewed at each check-in. Standard is $60 per week with a monthly check-in. Premium is $85 per week with a fortnightly check-in.

Can you help with diet and training while I travel overseas?

Yes, it's a standard part of my coaching, not an added extra. I've built many travel nutrition plans and hotel-friendly workouts around whatever equipment clients have, so we don't lose momentum while travelling.

Results

What results can I expect?

Progress is tracked and reviewed monthly, so you know what's changing and by how much. The practice averages are 9.4kg of fat loss and 7kg of muscle gain. Your own result depends on where you start, how big your goals are, and how consistent you are.

How often do I need to train to get results?

Some clients see real results from a single session per week. However, more frequency brings results much faster. Consistency really matters more than pure volume, and the right starting point depends on your goals and schedule.

How quickly will I lose weight with a personal trainer?

As a general guide, I expect ~500 grams of fat loss per week as realistic and sustainable. If that isn't happening, your training & nutrition are adjusted immediately to get you back on track. The weekly review and monthly measurements are designed to catch drift early.

Can I lose stubborn fat?

Stubborn fat usually reflects a mix of hormones, nutrition, and other physiological factors rather than a lack of effort. My approach is to identify and address the underlying contributors, which is where blood work and body-composition scans prove really useful.

Prices and joining

How much does personal training cost?

Weekly memberships range from $97 per week (one 30-minute session) up to $500 per week (five 45-minute sessions). Five-session packs are $415 (30-minute) and $535 (45-minute); ten-session packs are $784 and $1,039. Online coaching is $60 to $85 per week.

How does payment work?

Coaching is billed weekly by direct debit through Ezidebit, or by bank transfer. Bitcoin is also accepted. Session packs are purchased up front and booked ad hoc.

Do I need a gym membership to train with Isaac?

No. Training with Isaac does not require a separate gym membership, and you are welcome to use the recovery facilities, sauna, steam room, snow room, massage chairs, and pools after your session.

Is there a referral program?

Yes. A guest referred by a current client receives a complimentary consultation and session, while the referring client receives three complimentary sessions when their referral joins.

What are the cancellation, rescheduling and refund policies?

Sessions can be rescheduled with at least 12 hours' notice (subject to calendar space) and cancelled with 24 hours' notice. Pausing, for travel or a heavy fortnight, just needs a text or email. Refunds apply to packs that have not been started and sessions that have not been delivered.

Furlani Fitness operates from 157 Ann St, Brisbane CBD, inside a four-level performance and recovery facility. Online coaching is available regardless of location.

The Brisbane GPO and MacArthur Central are about 7 minutes on foot, Eagle Street Pier and Roma Street Station about 9.

Is there parking near 157 Ann St?
