Benjamin Rose

Accredited Exercise Physiologist

Bio

Ben Rose grew up in Canberra before moving to the rural community of Murrumbateman. Raised by his mother and grandmother, he experienced firsthand the unwavering support of a close family. As he entered young adulthood, he watched his grandmother’s health decline dramatically. Once a strong and independent woman, she faced dementia, cancer, osteoporosis, depression, and an increased risk of falls. Witnessing the profound impact that physical inactivity and chronic disease had on her quality of life inspired Ben to pursue a career dedicated to helping others live healthier, stronger lives.

Driven by this personal experience, Ben completed a Master of Clinical Exercise Physiology at Charles Sturt University. Combining evidence based practice with genuine compassion, he works with people to improve strength, cardiovascular fitness, bone health, balance, and mobility while reducing falls risk and managing metabolic health conditions. While Ben enjoys working with people of all ages and abilities, he has a particular passion for supporting older adults. His close relationship with his grandmother gave him a deep appreciation for the challenges that ageing can bring and the life-changing difference that appropriate exercise can make in maintaining independence, confidence, and quality of life.

Ben also brings valuable personal experience as an athlete. Having competed in Australian Rules Football at the state level and in powerlifting, he understands the physical and mental demands of high-performance sport. Throughout his athletic career, he has overcome several significant injuries, including a shoulder dislocation, Achilles tendinopathy from overtraining, a broken arm, and sciatica. These experiences have reinforced his belief that sustainable progress comes from balancing training, recovery, and long-term health.

Today, Ben is passionate about using exercise as medicine. Whether helping someone recover from injury, manage a chronic condition, or improve their physical performance, he is committed to delivering personalised, evidence-based care that helps people build confidence, improve function, and live healthier, more active lives.
