Exercise Physiology for Performance
Strength, conditioning and performance testing for athletes in Geelong from Accredited Exercise Physiologists. Evidence-based training for elite, sub-elite and serious recreational athletes.
Better performance doesn’t come from training harder. It comes from training smarter.
Exercise physiologists aren’t just for people managing chronic conditions. We work with athletes at all levels, from national-level competitors to passionate recreational athletes, applying the same evidence-based approach to performance that we bring to our clinical work. At Core Health Group, we’re set up to deliver genuine strength and conditioning support alongside performance testing and individualised programming.
How exercise physiology helps with athletic performance
An accredited exercise physiologist brings a level of scientific rigour to training that goes beyond most coaching or personal training backgrounds. We understand the physiology of adaptation, the mechanisms of fatigue, the interaction between training load and recovery, and how to design programs that produce results without breaking the athlete in the process.
We work with athletes across team sports, individual endurance events, strength sports, and racquet sports. Our clinical background also means we’re well-placed to support athletes managing injury history, health conditions, or complex training demands that require more than a standard coaching approach.

A note on funding
Who is this for?
Competitive athletes at any level who want a more scientific, individualised approach to their training. Serious recreational athletes who are passionate about improving and want expert guidance. Athletes returning from injury who want a structured, progressive path back to full performance. We currently work with national-level athletes, elite junior programs, and recreational competitors across a wide range of sports, and we take every athlete’s goals equally seriously.
Performance-based exercise physiology is typically self-funded, though private health insurance extras often cover exercise physiology sessions regardless of the reason for attending. If you’re an athlete managing an injury under WorkCover or TAC, your sessions may be covered through those schemes. DVA clients who are active athletes are also covered. Get in touch and we can talk through your specific situation.
