ACE Performance is a sports performance company which specialises in helping athletes and teams.
Our point of difference is that we test and educate our athletes. ACE Performance athletes learn exercise techniques and methods to maintain their bodies' stability, flexibility and strength throughout their lives.

A late but massive congratulations to Emily Whitehead OLY and Waverley Gymnastics Centre on achieving gold at the recent Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.
2025 was a year of rehab
2026 was a year of proof that hard work and belief gets results.
We’re so proud of you Em and never doubted seeing you back on the top step 🥇
Not everyone’s cup of tea. Definitely a few people’s pre workout. 😉🫶🏼

ACL. Twelve months. Then Best & Fairest.
Brit Bonnici came to ACE not because she was broken.
She came because elite athletes don't leave their performance to chance.
In 2022, Brit tore her ACL. One of Collingwood's best midfielders since the AFLW's very first game. Gone for twelve months.
She came back in 2023 and won Club Best & Fairest.
Then won it again in 2025.
What you do in the months they count you out — that's what separates the ones who return from the ones who come back better.
At ACE, we work with athletes like Brit on the things that actually decide outcomes: force output, movement quality, and the physical capacity to stay elite for an entire season.

This is what a High Performance Program session looks like at our Fairfield facility.
No machines. No mirrors. Just the work.
HPP is built for athletes who've outgrown general fitness and need a structured program around their actual performance demands — speed, strength, power, and the capacity to sustain it across a full season.
Every session has a purpose. Every block has a target. Nothing is random.
If your training feels like it's maintaining rather than building — this is what the alternative looks like.

Zach Guthrie. AFL Premiership player. Geelong Cats.
The last few pre-seasons, Zach has come back to ACE to rebuild the physical qualities that keep him at the top of the competition.
Speed and strength don't maintain themselves at the elite level. The off-season is where the edge gets built — before anyone is watching, before the season puts it to the test.
What that looks like in practice:
→ Maximal strength work — squats, bench, compound loading under heavy load
→ Speed mechanics on the oval — acceleration, max velocity, sprint mechanics
→ Building the physical reserve that a full AFL season will draw down on
The gap between a good season and a great season is often decided in the months between them.
This is where Zach does that work.
