You’re in the right place if you want to increase your stamina and flexibility, tone up your wobbly bits, add size and strength to your frame or even win a fitness, bikini or sports model contest.

Muscle And Body Shape (MBS) has developed a solid track record of transforming ordinary bodies into extraordinary physiques and assisting ordinary athletes place high at prime national and international fitness and body sculpting competitions.

We offer 3-, 6- and 12-month memberships to suit your goals, lifestyle and budget. We also offer $9 casual visits if you want the freedom to train without being tied down to a contract.

Our programs have been developed by George Tabban (a.k.a. The Godfather of Bodybuilding) and perfected and refined by his son, Michael Tabban, a leader in the Australian Figure and Body Sculpting industry. They are facilitated by their hand-picked personal trainers at both of our prime locations – MBS Richmond and MBS Prahran.

Not only do we have more pin-loaded and free weight equipment than most gyms in the area, but we also offer fitness classes from Yoga and Pilates to Spin,  Boxing, Circuit and Zumba so you can have fun downsizing your thighs and zip into your best body ever!

Imagine hitting longer drives on the golf course and harder serves on the tennis court … imagine being able to catch up to your kids and grandkids while playing ball … Imagine being able to climb flights of stairs without puffing like a steam engine!  Does it all sound like an impossible dream?

Book a casual visit and come on down to MBS to see how we transform ordinary bodies, turning them into magnificent, healthy looking physiques.

If you like what you see at our facilities,  then our friendly reception staff will advise you as to how a typical membership works. Our trainers are experienced in all levels of skill and strength and if you choose a personal training package,  then (at an additional cost) a trainer,  together with you will develop a program based upon your personal needs to achieve your goals.

Why join Muscle & Body Shape Gyms.

We breed champions. MBS guides and assists ordinary individuals like you collect first-place trophies at prime national and international fitness, model and body sculpting competitions. One member for example, a 50-year old mother of three won the World Title in New York and seven other body sculpting competitions. Imagine, being 50+ and looking so fabulous!

We have experienced, multi-award winning athlete trainers in our clubs! MBS trainers have won one or multiple muscle and fitness competitions – they are not just personal trainers. Many of them are competing world-class athletes.

A reciprocal membership gives you access to multiple gyms! We have two spacious modern gyms here in Melbourne – MBS Richmond and MBS Prahran and can also offer clients free entry at a number of other facilities across Australia with our interstate partner gyms arrangement.

Our gyms are popular but not crowded. Unlike other gyms, we cap our membership numbers to avoid overcrowding so that you can get on a  treadmill or free-weight machine without having to stand around endlessly waiting for your turn!

Our members range from early 20s to late 60s! You’re never too young or old to train. No matter what your age or body shape, you will feel comfortable training at MBS.

People come here to train and not to show off or intimidate others.

There is no point joining a gym where you don’t feel comfortable. The happy and supportive atmosphere in our gyms will put you at ease and ready to hit the weights and focus on your goals instead of feeling embarrassed or intimidated.

No aggressive sales techniques. Many fitness centres probe their members with leading questions and sales techniques to determine how much you can afford to pay – WE WON’T DO THAT! Our pricing is fixed, no matter what your income.

We have different plans to suit YOUR needs and YOUR budget. We make it easy for you to fit our membership into your life… we offer you several membership plans so you can choose the one that suits you best. Our friendly reception staff are happy to answer any questions you might have about training with MBS.

As you know exercise improves health and lengthens life.

It’s good for you!
