Ethan Fleming, 24, is the founder and CEO of Get Going PT, one of Australia’s most disruptive and fast-growing, mobile personal training fitness chains.

Born in Hobart, Ethan grew up in many pockets of Australia and changed schools fourteen times before the age of 14, an experience that he credits as helping him to develop excellent relationship skills which are now paying dividends in business.

He left school in Year 10 to pursue carpentry because he was interested in starting his own construction company but during his apprenticeship switched to personal training, returning to his early love of sports and fitness. After completing his certification he worked for brands such as Vision and Fitness First.

It was a stint in a mobile cocktail bartending role that led him to identify a gap in the fitness market. Entrepreneurial since the age of 17, when he began a gardening business as a side hustle to his carpentry apprenticeship, he elevated personal training from a job to a business when he started Get Going PT in December 2016, where mobile trainers travel to clients to conduct workouts and offer associated health services such as nutritional advice.

Get Going PT has become a million-dollar business in three years, and offers a holistic mobile fitness service, with trainers traveling to clients’ homes to do workouts, alongside custom nutrition plans and a 24-hour helpline. As the business has expanded Ethan has taken on two co-owners, Ashley Nelson and Sam Steeg, and in 2020 the brand will offer franchising opportunities across Australia for aspiring business owners.

In addition to running Get Going PT, Ethan is also known as the guy who did 11,400 burpees in 24 hours to raise money for LIVIN.org, as seen on Channel 7, Channel 9 and The Herald-Sun, and is currently in training for a burpee-related Guinness World Record. His aim is to make or break 40 world records before the age of 40.
