A Bit About Me
Chris Nayna is a health professional with more than five years of clinical experience as a Registered Nurse. After specialising in critical care cardiology, Chris decided to shift his passion for health out of the hospital, with an interest in reaching and helping people in the prevention phase of their health journey. He merged his love of fitness and health and created a personal training studio called Train Station Fitness. He now works with clients in person and online and seeks to inspire, motivate and educate individuals by way of personalised training regimes.

Chris Nayna has been an incredibly supportive, knowledgeable and motivational PT. The environment he consistently creates pushes me to keep striving for more without demotivating me from both the environment or the routine. Developing a routine was extremely difficult for me and with Chris' help, I was able to fit the gym, training and active activities in to my lifestyle which I had significant difficult doing. His knowledge in associated areas which directly relate to training have also been exceptional and extremely helpful. I never hesitate recommending Chris to anyone regardless of their fitness level.

"Give a man a fish, you'll feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, you've fed him for a lifetime" Chris is an amazing PT, his sessions are fun, engaging and just the right level of punishing. But his true skill lies in his ability to set you up to succeed on your own. I don't see him as often as I'd like (my fault not his) but he has given me the skills to work towards my goals regardless. I'd recommend him to anyone that has struggled with consistency in the past, thanks to him I'm 10kg lighter and counting.

Chris is not only an amazing PT but also an amazing human! He is kind, caring, intelligent and passionate. He is a wealth of knowledge and can always answer any questions I ask but is also constantly striving to learn more himself. His training sessions are tough but enjoyable, lots of variety and I always come away from Chris feeling so much better than when I arrived. A fantastic person who not only trains your body but also your mind! Highly recommended!
