ROHAN REID - "THE CHIEF"

6x IFBB Mr. Australia

"The Chief" is living legend in the world of fitness. Born in 1972, he embarked on his fitness journey at just 12, setting the stage for an extraordinary career. Competing in bodybuilding since 17, he's amassed a wealth of experience. With over three decades of training clients since 1991, his expertise is unparalleled.

Returning from Japan in 2000, he founded Body Matrix personal training, touching hundreds of lives with transformative results. The Chief boasts an impressive track record, including 6x IFBB Mr. Australia titles and a 2018 IFBB Masters World Cup runner-up. His true passion lies in Adventure fitness development, where he shares his vast wisdom, sculpting not just bodies but incredible life journeys with his clientele.

If you think Body Matrix Gym is just for hardcore bodybuilders, think again. Rohan Reid, better known as “The Chief,” is not just a six-time Mr. Australia—he’s a world-class personal trainer with over 30 years of experience helping everyday people get in shape, build confidence, and improve their quality of life.

He’s trained hundreds of clients from all walks of life—from total beginners who just want to feel healthier to seasoned gym-goers looking to level up. His passion? Helping people move better, feel stronger, and live longer—without the fluff, fads, or fitness industry BS.

That’s exactly what Rohan offers as a personal trainer in South Melbourne—decades of experience, straight-talking guidance, and a training style that’s all about results.
