About VEP
As an Accredited Clinical Exercise Physiologist in Melbourne, I help clients recover from injuries and manage chronic conditions through personalised, evidence-based programs. Whether you're dealing with lower back pain, recovering from ACL reconstruction, or managing type 2 diabetes, I create realistic programs that fit your life.
Having personally navigated ACL reconstruction, multiple ankle injuries, and chronic lower back pain from my Australian Rules Football and basketball days, I understand the frustration of cookie-cutter rehab programs that don't work in the real world. That's why I combine my Masters in Clinical Exercise Physiology with real-world experience to deliver programs that actually get results.
Success Stories
Client Testimonials
"Zach has been nothing but helpful in what I wanted to achieve with my fitness goals, he’s precise with his structure and is motivating when I need it, always asks the right questions to build the perfect structure for my sessions I’ve only seen progress for the short time I’ve been with him and can’t wait for the off season to really dig in with him!"
Silvester Spice
"I started training with Zach as I had been training for running events on my own and felt that I wasn’t progressing as quickly as I would like. Training with Zach took the guess work out of it. I had confidence in the plans he set and saw results quickly which kept me motivated. The biggest change has been my confidence. I now feel more confident in my capability and that I’m on the right path to reach my goals. Zach is supportive, approachable, and makes it easy to stay on track by tailoring training to fit into my busy routine."
Jessica Sutherland
“I chose to work with Zach because I trusted him — he’s been through the same injury I had and really understands it. The biggest benefit has been being able to reach out anytime with questions and get a straight up answer. Since starting, I’m now almost completely pain-free and have the confidence to trust my leg again. The program is easy to follow, Zach takes the time to explain things clearly, and he helps me avoid old habits so I can keep improving.”
