Our Story
Innovate Exercise Physiology, is a small Exercise Physiology clinic based in Croydon, in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne. Originally started by the owner, Accredited Exercise Physiology, Bennett Tucker in 2016. Our previous name of Tucker Strength and Performance was created to bridge the gap between local athletes and up to date training principles. Over the years, Bennett realised that his passion for helping people overcome chronic disease and injuries far outweighed his desire to train athletes, and as such was getting more Exercise Physiology clients. With the health care setting growing, especially in the years during the pandemic, the need for Exercise Physiology services grow thanks to years in and out of lockdown with gyms closed and people not moving as much. Bennett decided that the name no longer suited his business services and his passion for Exercise Physiology. Thus Innovate Exercise Physiology was created.
Innovate Exercise Physiology was founded with one goal in mind: to create a welcoming, professional space where people of all ages and abilities can take control of their health through movement.
As Accredited Exercise Physiologists, we saw the need for a clinic that prioritised personalised, evidence-based care, not just for athletes or gym-goers, but for everyday people living with chronic conditions, recovering from injury, managing disability, or simply wanting to improve their wellbeing.
Since opening our doors in 2022, we’ve helped hundreds of clients build strength, confidence, and independence. We’re proud to support a wide range of people, including NDIS participants, older adults, and those living with diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, and more. Every exercise plan we deliver is tailored to the individual, with a focus on long-term outcomes and functional, sustainable progress.
What sets us apart is our commitment to education, not just for our clients, but for the next generation of health professionals. As a teaching clinic, we regularly mentor exercise physiology students, helping them build real-world skills in a supportive clinical environment.
We also work closely with local GPs, specialists, and allied health providers to ensure our clients receive coordinated, high-quality care. Our team approach means you’re not just getting an exercise plan, you’re getting a partner in your health journey.
At Innovate Exercise Physiology, we believe movement is powerful. It can heal, it can build resilience, and it can change lives.
By 2023 more space was a must as our group classes were filling fast! Every week we see more than 80 participants in our classes and 35 1:1 clients in the clinic, as we get results!
That’s our story, and we’d love to be part of yours
