Advanced diagnostic tools

Our VALD diagnostic technology measures your strength, movement and asymmetry with precision used at the highest levels of professional sport. This gives you an accurate baseline from the start and objective, trackable evidence of your progress at every milestone.

Individual Goal Setting

No goal is too big or too small. From pain-free movement to peak performance, your targets are set in your first consultation and measured at formal milestones — so you always know your program is heading in the right direction.

Clear Roadmap & Tracking

Our app makes following your program effortless. See exactly what to do each session, log your work, and receive live updates from your personal practitioner as they adjust your plan. No confusion, no second-guessing. Just clear direction and visible progress every step of the way.

Small Studio, Big Impact

Our Cotton Tree studio keeps things intentionally small. You're never just a client number or rushed through sessions. This boutique approach means focused attention, accountability that feels supportive not stressful, and a community that genuinely wants you to succeed.

  • Susan Gray

    I have been with BMF for three months now and have been doing one-on-one sessions with Jayrd to achieve my strength and resistance goals. His patience, teaching style, and willingness to listen make the sessions incredibly supportive.
    I also join Wednesdays a Core and Flow class, Mondays an Osteoporosis class with Stacie and more recently their Open Gym sessions. The Open Gym environment is quieter, not crowded and you follow a program specifically designed for you.
    Jaryd and Stacie, Exercise Physiologists, make an amazing team. They are supportive, knowledgeable and genuinely invested in helping their clients achieve their goals. I always feel 100% supported in my training.
    If you're someone like me living with osteoporosis or osteopenia, I love their small Monday classes which focus on weight-bearing impact, resistance, and balance exercises in a fun circuit-style format that makes training both effective, fun and enjoyable.
    I would definitely recommend BMF to anyone wanting to improve their fitness, rebuild strength, or simply start moving again. The programs and guidance they provide are a real credit to them both.

  • Hannah

    Body Mechanics and Function are professionals, best exercise physiologist on the Sunshine Coast! They actually care about helping you achieve your goals and the results are worth way more than you pay for. The only allied health to follow through and exceed my expectations in a long time.

  • Julie-Anne Smedley

    My husband and I have been training with Jaryd and Stacie at BMF for the past four months after dealing with chronic pain and limited mobility. Their expertise has been exceptional. Through their careful programming and consistent support, we have both regained a lot of strength and mobility, enabling us to return to the activities we love.

  • Patricia Howe

    I have been seeing Jaryd regularly at BMF x 3 months as I have experienced chronic lumbar back pain for many years with little relief from it despite regular walks, stretches, analgesia, chiropractic treatments etc. It had come to the point of considering an invasive medical procedure to manage the pain which had no guarentee of success, and which I didn't want.
    Aware that I was initially anxious and not trusting my back pain wouldn't be triggered by some of the exercises, Jaryd reassured me and worked with me to a point where I am now experiencing significantly less pain, increased and easier movement, strength and energy. I am also enjoying completing my home exercise plan as well as visiting his gym 1-2 a week
    Jaryd is patient, inspires trust and very experienced and knowledgeable. He assesses my progress regularly, adjusts my exercise program accordingly which keeps me motivated as well as challenged. Its also great fun!
    I wish I'd found BMF and Jaryd sooner and can highly recommend him to anyone, no matter your age or problem. I can honestly say my life has changed and will no doubt, continue to improve so I can live life fully. Thank you Jaryd.

  • Belle Smith

    We’ve had such a positive experience with BMF! Jaryd has been incredibly supportive of my son, who has additional needs and faces daily challenges. From the moment we walked in, Jaryd has made my son feel welcomed, understood, and respected.
    He is not only highly knowledgeable but also patient and genuinely invested in helping my son succeed. Jaryd tailors each session to meet his individual needs, building his confidence and physical strength in ways that carry over into everyday life.
    It’s so encouraging to see my son enjoy his sessions and make real progress, both physically and emotionally. I can’t thank Jaryd enough for the care and dedication he’s shown. I highly recommend this clinic to any families looking for support!

  • Karin Littleton

    What can I say about Jaryd @ BMF. He is amazing at what he does whether you have injuries, illness or just haven't moved in awhile, Jaryd can help. And what a view to enjoy while moving your body. Oh and don't forget the fun!

  • Sally Mills

    Thank you Jaryd for your work on my knee! I'm walking so smoothly now and back to running! Amazing! Thank you!

  • Nelson Singh

    Off the back of multiple recommendations, I booked in with Jaryd at Body Mechanics and Function to help with rehab following an L5/S1 disc herniation. From the very first session, it was clear that Jaryd is not only highly knowledgeable but also genuinely committed to his clients’ recovery. He developed a personalised, progressive plan tailored to my needs, and within just three sessions, the results have far exceeded my expectations. I’m already feeling stronger, more confident, and well on the way to full recovery. Jaryd is someone I would highly recommend to anyone needing expert, effective rehab support.

  • Nerissa Mapes

    Jaryd has put together a great program to help keep us mobility and balance challenged folks on our feet. Highly recommended!

About Us

Evidence-Based, People-Focused.

BMF was founded by Jaryd, an Accredited Exercise Physiologist with close to two decades in coaching, strength training and clinical exercise. What started with grassroots athletic coaching in 2005 evolved into a purpose-built practice grounded in one principle: exercise is medicine, and it should be tailored to how you actually live. Alongside Jaryd, Exercise Physiologist Stacie brings a strong focus on rehabilitation, movement confidence and return to activity. Together, they work with people across the Sunshine Coast, from post-injury recovery and chronic pain management to performance and everyday function.

FAQs

What We Hear Most

I already walk each week, do I really need to do more exercise?

Walking is great for cardiovascular health, but it doesn't build strength, bone density, or balance the way resistance training does. Most people need both — we can show you where the gaps are.

How busy does your gym get?

We deliberately cap our open gym to 5 members at any one time. No waiting for machines, no crowds, and it means we actually know every member and can check in with you regularly.

What group classes do you have?

We run a range of group classes — see our group classes page for the full list and up-to-date schedule: [link to group classes page — send me the URL and I'll drop it in].
