TestimonialsHere are some direct quotes from some of Edge 1st Fitness clients.
Testimonial: Sara Cuneo, 38, Self-employedBeing someone who has never had success at all the gyms I have joined ( whether or not it be the biggest and best , the most convenient, friends were there etc ) I have never been so enthused nor successful.I have battled to resume my weight over the last 8 years since the birth of my first child. It has now been 2 years since my second and have never felt better. From Day one of meeting with Daran I knew I was going to SUCEED. It was no longer a quick fix but a lifestyle change that I have now adapted with my life. I have always seeked quick fixes through diets , excersice and never been successful. I followed Darans advice , started slow and have never been more satisfied with my results – fitness, physical etc. I have been training with Daran now for 6-8 weeks and have been so AMAZED by my transformation – 50 cm lost overall and yes my muffin top is nearly something of the past !! I would never have imagined. I Love every time I go – you never know what to expect , but always feel that sense of satisfaction that you can do it . I am still amazed how I keep turning up as I am one to usually get very bored , but there is no such thing as boredom. Daz you rock and I would recommend you to anyone – if you can create these results for me , anyone can succeed. Love your work! Testimonial: Phoebe, 16, StudentUnlike other gyms I have been to in the past, Edge First truly is a total life centre. Whilst most gyms simply aim to improve your fitness, Daran understands that exercise is not just a physical journey, that it includes emotional and mental challenges as well.While the wide range of classes provide something for every age, fitness level and ability, Daran is passionate and aspires to understand his clients and help them overcome their own struggles so that they can accomplish their personal goals.I have constantly enjoyed the varying exercises and by working without machines I know that I am actually working hard and can feel proud of my achievements, knowing that I did all the hard work. At Edge First not only have I seen real results, I have also learnt how fitness is about mind body and spirit. Testimonial: Angela Sullivan, Master Success CoachIf total transformation of body and mind is what you are looking for then look no further than training with Daran. I feel so encouraged and supported with my health goals. Having been involved with the personal development industry for a number of years now in my role as a master success coach I have spent so much time and energy helping other people get their goals and dreams, I have always put myself second and my clients first, Daran has taught me to value my health and respect my body and what I put into it, to love the energy rush I get from exercise and looking after myself. He has helped me break through barriers I never would have believed I could get through.If you had told me 6 months ago I would be running and working out most days I would have laughed at you, but with Daran’s support that’s what’s happening! A huge very big deal as I was once bed ridden and suffered from quite a life threatening illness a few years ago and I had the mindset off I don’t have a strong enough body, and I’m too tired. I have just recently purchased my first size 12 top and bottoms and feel so amazing! This is a far cry from the size 20 I used to be. I am consistently and pleasantly surprised about what my body can now do, and I feel less emotional as Daran has expertly guided me through many a freak-out and has been there for me to help me dust off my grazed knees and get through the pain barrier and cheer me on! He is one of my favorite people in my environment and one of my greatest inspirational role models and I would entrust any of my personal business and coaching clients to his expert training. If a new outlook on life, more emotional stability, a new lifestyle and a hot new body is what you want... Daran is your man. Testimonial: Graham, 51, East GosfordI originally contacted Daran Pratt at Edge first group about personal training in July 2008.I had been considering joining the defence force as a tradesman and thought I would need to be fitter to pass the test. I was type 2 diabetic, managed by medication, and needed to lose 5 points on the BMI. From the moment I walked into the studio I knew there was something different about this place compared to other “gyms”. To start with there were no machines, no treadmills or exercise bikes, just padded floors and these strange looking things that Daran was calling KETTLEBELLS. He also showed me a range of sandbags, and other things that I had no idea what they were or what they did. We talked about my goals and Daran immediately told me that we could easily achieve what I wanted. He told me it would be tough and that I would have to work hard to get there, but that he was here to support me. We discussed prices and I was pleasantly surprised to find out how affordable it was to train at Edge First GroupDaran certainly knows his stuff. He gave me an eating plan, complete with vitamins, fibre tablets and protein supplements. He took my measurements, did a body fat analysis and fitness test. Then we began the training. Fast forward 12 weeks and I have just had my 3 measure in. Not only have I lost a total of 31.5 cm and 5% body fat, I have also been able to stop taking my diabetic medication. My blood sugar count has fallen from 11.4 to 5.6, well within non medication parameters. My doctor was so amazed that he asked for Daran’s business card so he could start training as well. The changes in my life are countless. I have more energy, I sleep better, I feel and look years younger. In fact the only bad thing is that I had to buy all new clothes because my old ones no longer fit me. The best thing about my journey is that I now know how to maintain my new lifestyle, it really is no mystery.If you have a health goal that you would like to attain, don’t waste time, go directly to see Daran and Trinity at Edge First Group.

Testimonial: Jane, 46, SydneyHaving started on Edge First’s internet based program only a couple of months ago, I have moved from very poor emotional based eating patterns that had my metabolism and hormones all over the place, to a solid and easy to follow eating plan that’s resulted in my sleeping peacefully, thinking clearly, and feeling really good about myself. Not to mention shedding kilos and building muscle slowly but steadily as well. This result, for a person who has spent their life on and off every diet under the sun with an embedded eating disorder, is nothing short of huge. To cut a long story short, I feel like I’ve been given my life back.What you get at Edge First is not only advice and guidance on food and exercise that really works (and lets’ face it, that sets them well above many others in the marketplace), but you get genuine support from someone who knows how to predict the onset of self sabotage and work with you to avoid and/or overcome it. Last but not least, I’m forever grateful to Daran for massaging intractable, persistent pain out of parts of my body that I don’t ever remember not having some kind of pain in. When people ask me if it’s worth driving from Sydney to the Central Coast for a massage, all I say is YES. Testimonial: Philip Walton, Head Coach Kincumber U/15sThankyou for all your time and effort during this season.All the boys have thoroughly enjoyed the time spent at your gym. Several of them have spoke to me about the effects they have felt from your style of “GRUNT” training and as a coach I have been impressed with the result that I have witnessed on the field. I have no doubt that they are a direct result of your training. Your professionalism and patience have been greatly appreciated and I look forward to working with you again next season.
