Train with intent.
Learn weightlifting properly.
Get strong for the long term.

Welcome to Summit Strength & Performance

  • Learn to Lift is a short, personalised coaching pathway designed for people who care about their training but feel unsure, stuck, or under-confident.

    We slow the process down, break the lifts into manageable pieces, and give you clarity on what to feel, fix, and focus on, before moving into ongoing training.

  • Small-group coaching built around in-person feedback, personalised training structure, and a supportive community.

    You’ll follow a clear weekly program, train alongside like-minded lifters, and actually understand what you’re working on, not just show up and guess.

  • Structured programming and feedback for athletes and lifters training remotely.

    You’ll know exactly what to do each session, why it matters, and how it fits into your bigger picture, without second-guessing your training.

“Patty is an amazing coach who always ensures everyone lifts well and has fun. He is very supportive and has helped my confidence and weightlifting capabilities grow exponentially as a new lifter navigating the weightlifting field. He pays great attention to detail and creates personalised plans that help suit your individual abilities and goals. Summit is a fantastic club! Every member is so lovely and supportive and it is great to train alongside a team of likeminded people. I look forward to every session and love training with Patty and the Summit team!”
