HUGH PERRETT, Maxfit Co-Founder, Strength & Conditioning Coach, Sports Performance Coach
I am a Certified Strength and Conditioning Coach with over a decade of experience, a professional rugby background in Australia and the UK, and a career in the medical industry as a weight loss specialist since 2012. Living with type 1 diabetes has given me a unique perspective on health, deepening my understanding of how nutrition, exercise, sleep, and lifestyle choices shape long-term wellbeing.
My professional journey has included roles at Diabetes Australia, an Education degree from Macquarie University, and more than 20 years dedicated to learning and applying the principles of performance, health, and human movement.
As the Co-Founder of MaxFit, my mission is to build a supportive community that values evidence-based training and sustainable lifestyle change. I believe training should be enjoyable, empowering, and accessible to everyone—whether you’re a beginner or an experienced athlete. By focusing on proper movement, strength, and balance, MaxFit helps people push beyond their comfort zones, improve confidence, and embrace the lifelong benefits of an active, healthy lifestyle.
