The Global Fitness Powerhouse That Just Landed In Devonport Is Changing Everything

If you’ve been wandering past Forbes Street lately and wondering where that surge of high-octane energy is coming from, we’ve found the source. BFT Devonport is officially making its mark, and it’s not your average 'run-until-you-drop' cardio box. Founded by Cameron Falloon—a man who literally used to train Princess Diana and elite AFL stars—this spot is bringing pro-athlete science to our local fitness scene.

The Athlete Secret For Everyday Humans

The vibe here is lowkey obsessed with "progressive programming." While most HIIT spots just want to see you sweat, BFT is all about getting you stronger using the same periodisation cycles the pros use. With 14 distinct workouts rotating through the week, you’re hitting different energy systems every time you walk through the door. It’s smart, it’s science-backed, and it’s surprisingly addictive.

One of the best parts? You don't have to spend half your session figuring out what a 'kettlebell snatch' is. The studio is decked out with massive digital screens that guide you through every station, showing you exactly what to do while your heart rate stays tracked in real-time. It’s like having a personal trainer's brain inside a high-tech studio.

What Do The Locals Think?

The community in Devonport is already smashing it, and the feedback is loud. Michelle is a total convert, saying: "I’ve never been able to stick to a gym until BFT! The programs are great and I love training in the heart rate zones with screens to show you what to do. It takes away having to think what to do."

It’s not just about the tech, though—the trainers are the real deal. Payton describes it as "an incredibly welcoming and inclusive environment!! The trainers are incredibly kind, supportive and of course fun! They have great knowledge of form and technique, and excellent ability to progress/regress movements to suit each client’s fitness level."

Heavy Lifts and High Energy

Whether it’s a dedicated strength day with barbells and racks or a hybrid conditioning session using rowers and air bikes, the energy is always at 100. Despite the elite-level programming, there's a serious lack of ego here. It’s all about the banter and the collective push to get that one extra rep.

As Peter puts it: "Love BFT Devonport. Such a welcoming place to work out and train, build fitness and meet new people. The trainers are always so friendly... Can’t recommend highly enough."

If you're tired of the same old gym routine and want a program that actually has a plan for your progress, grab your sneakers and head down to Forbes Street. Your future, stronger self will probably thank you for it.
