Our team is made up of professionals from a wide range of backgrounds. Whether your goal is bodybuilding, athletic performance, powerlifting, or just sustainable success, we've got you covered.
What could be better than a heart-racing workout that keeps your muscles moving and pushes you to stay motivated week after week?

We're pushing you to move your body more efficiently and complete each exercise with a combination of speed, safety, and sustainability.
We're here to help beginners and experienced athletes find success. Our Powerlifting class is a great way to build your strength from the ground up or push yourself to see gains week in and week out. At Ben's Army 24/7 Fitness, you'll be led by experienced coaches who can help you stay safe and injury free while also avoiding the frustrations of the plateau.
Ben has over a decade of experience as a fitness instructor, beginning in the army and has created a gym to suit a vast array of clients. Since finding his passion for the sport, Ben specializes in all things Powerlifting and has created a friendly and vibrant Powerlifting community here at the gym.

I've been coming to Ben's Army for over 2 years now and it's been one of the best gym experiences I've ever had. Extremely affordable and Ben has been very supportive to his community during the pandemic.
The staff are kind and friendly, and the community within the gym is very encouraging as a whole.
The equipment is awesome; heaps of different machines to target specific accessories, and great equipment for powerlifting and strongman. Plenty of space in the place as well, so it never feels too crowded.
I've felt a true transformation in myself both physically and mentally since coming to this

Found this place from the reddit thread, glad its not my gym!
"Australian consumer law clearly states that businesses can't receive funds for services not rendered - so direct debits should stop and, if they haven't, you should be entitled to a refund."
So nice of the gym owner to offer to sort it out for members who called him out on it. That makes it so much worse. Refund them all, not just the ones who noticed that you were stealing from them. Emailed the herald sun and the courier, encourage everyone else to do the same until the gym owner makes this right for everyone.

Hands down the best gym in Ballarat, tonnes of equipment (literally) and such a versatile range of machines and weights. The power lifting equipment is brilliant and there is plenty of space for the gym to not feel too crowded. The staff are super friendly, and the community in the gym is wholesome and encouraging. You can even play your own music on the gyms speakers.

Ben's is the best gym for range of equipment (Powerlifting, Strongman, CrossFit, Bodybuilding.) in Ballarat by far, the fees are cheap and Ben and Staff are always willing to sort out any issues if you contact them. Even during peak times I have never had an issue getting equipment to myself. Happy to be a part of the gym for a little over a year now since moving back from Melbourne and can appreciate the difference between the experience had at Melbourne gyms vs Ben's.

This a great gym which has enabled me to go from a diabetic diagnosis to Powerlifting Maters 1 National Title and record in 18 months! I was initially hesitant and very apprehensive about going to a gym but… this feeling soon disappeared after only a few sessions. All the staff are extremely dedicated and do all they can to help you achieve your goals at any level. Ben himself has dedicated a lot of time to help me overcome my health issues and help me achieve more than I ever though I could.... I have now competed several powerlifting competitions and all at the gym have been supportive

Ben's Army is an amazing place to get fit. I've been to a lot of gyms over the years and nowhere cares more about looking after members than Ben's. They have an enormous range of equipment, friendly staff and an excellent mix of strength and cardio programs. There's a lot to like, but one of my favourite things is the way they always make sure you learn the correct techniques. The trainers also get to know you as a friend and not just a client, so they always know what you are capable of and how best to motivate you. Ben's is a down to earth gym that is just right for men and women of all ages

The PT sessions are like something straight out of the Karate Kid. Some Mr Miagi stuff going on right here. Been about 2 months since I started going twice a week and my strength and stamina has improved heaps. I'm hitting harder in gridiron and generally feel a whole lot more confident.
2/6/14 Gridiron season is we'll underway. Four games into… the season and as a cornerback I've never let a pass through and have yet to meet a wide receiver who can't best my speed. This is all thanks to Ben and his strength conditioning training which makes you feel like your in a Rocky movie. Will defiantly
