SIM Bondi

SIM Bondi is a strength and conditioning gym in Bondi Beach, Sydney, built around movement quality, sustainable training and individual progression. Members can choose from group training, one-to-one training, open gym access and personalised programs, with the facility capped at 200 members to support a more focused experience. Membership is listed at $68 per week, with the option to add further coaching and support depending on your goals.

The gym is divided into dedicated training areas. The Movement Zone is set up for mobility, bodyweight strength and movement practice, with wall bars, gymnastics rings, mace bells, kettlebells and other functional equipment. The Strength and Conditioning Zone includes eight squat racks, five cable machines, a sled track, free weights, resistance machines and conditioning equipment. Together, the spaces cater to people developing foundational strength as well as those working towards more advanced performance goals.

Training at SIM follows a process that starts with understanding the member’s background, aims, habits, training history and previous injuries. A movement screening then helps identify weaknesses, before the team recommends or creates a suitable program. The gym’s broader approach brings together movement, health and performance, with guidance that can cover mobility, coordination, strength, lifting technique, fitness, nutrition, recovery and sustainable habits. The stated focus is on building useful foundations for staying active over the long term rather than chasing a short-term program.

For more individual attention, the Squad Program offers small-group sessions with no more than six members per coach, while the Focus Program provides personal training tailored to specific goals. Members can also use the SIM App for program advice and support with training, recovery and wellbeing. The environment is spacious and climate-controlled, with curated lighting, music, towel service and 90 minutes of free parking. SIM was co-founded by Matt Waterton and Josh Allen, and the coaching team includes Jack Marsh, Mackenzie Clark, Brett Harris, Luana Deusing and Charlie Matheson. It suits solo members looking for structured support, as well as people who prefer coached small-group training or independent gym access at 75–79 Hall Street, Bondi Beach.
