There are only several factors that will determine how successful a program really is, the programming itself AND the coach. The Amazing 12 was created over a ten year period by legendary Irish strength coach Paul McIlroy. Up until 2014 the only way you could’ve experienced these results was by training with Paul himself at his gym Centaur in Belfast, Ireland.
After changing hundreds of physiques over ten years Paul created the most prestigious certification program to change even more lives, all over the world. We are very honored to have been selected as the only gym in Hobart to feature the most revolutionary physique transformation available today.
"I have been lifting weights I never thought imaginable. I felt successful in that my strength continued to increase and the mental toughness I developed was my favourite part of the program. " Danielle Kannegiesser, Fitness Coach
"I had more strength goals than aesthetic goals, but people did notice the physical changes; there were comments here and there, like I was ‘buff’ or looking ‘super fit’. I learned perseverance and resilience during the 12 weeks, I wanted to prove to myself that I could stick it out.
" Doug Christie, Social Worker
"In terms of exercise safety, A12 seem to only certify very experienced strength trainers." Caitlin McArthur, Physiotherapist
"Other people did comment on the physical changes. For me it was a mental game, of trying to be more confident in myself, of telling myself that I was capable.
" Kylie Wiaczek, Insurance Broker
"I lost a lot of fat and visibly increased my muscle mass very early on, which was really motivating. My back, arms and chest evened out and were more in proportion to each other.
" John Glinatsis, Professional Chef
"I liked having a strict program to follow, and being consistent with my exercise and diet, it ended up giving me structure in other areas of my life." Moe Aljaidi
"I found myself at the end of 12 weeks with the strongest abdominal muscles I have had in 14-15 years, since the birth of my second child" Eilish Kidd, Artgym owner
"At the start of the year...the most my dog was getting [for walks] was probably two blocks. And now [l'm doing] 5 ks - and a two-hour workout." Gus Leighton, musician
"This is genuinely the best shape I have ever been in.
I'm 50 and I've worked in gyms for 30 years." Miskad, Artgym owner
The Amazing 12 Classic is the original version of the A12 program. Designed by A12 creator Paul McIlroy to create the biggest aesthetic changes possible in the shortest possible time-frame. Muscle gain and fat loss aren’t supposed to be able to happen simultaneously to any significant degree, but the Amazing 12 Classic (and all A12 based programs) have proven this to false almost ten THOUSAND times, all over the world, for over 15 years.
We’ll show you step-by-step the optimal (and required) techniques and their subtleties to master each exercise and minimise risk of injury even as you progress through higher and higher strength levels.
Looking for a quick A12 fix?
The A12 Express is another installment of the proud A12 lineage, designed by A12 creator Paul McIlroy, specifically for people on the go! At just 35 minutes per session, 3 times per week, the A12 Express is designed to produce the biggest ‘pound-for-pound’ (or minute-for minute) result imaginable in THE most efficient way possible.
The Express version of the program is 3 times a week instead of 5, and must be done on non-consecutive days, but ANY non-consecutive days will do. Altogether the A12 classic is between 5 and 6.5hours per week, the A12 Express is a maximum of 1 hour 45 minutes…per WEEK.
Many of the exercises used in the A12 classic do not reoccur in the A12 Express. As simple as the A12 Classic is with regards exercise selection, the A12 express is even simpler. On the inside, the mathematical structure and progression pattern of the A12 express is very different, but the quality is just as high. Because of this you can expect NEW never before experienced gains, even if you’ve previously completed the A12 Classic Program.
