Dr David Trotter is an exercise physiologist and exercise scientist based in Moorabbin, VIC. His clinic is at 1, 3 Tuck Street, Moorabbin VIC 3189. He works with people who want exercise that feels doable, safe, and targeted to what they’re dealing with day to day.
Exercise can help with a lot of things, but it doesn’t have to be the same for everyone. In many cases, Dr Trotter creates personalised exercise plans that fit around your routine, your level of fitness, and your goals. Some people are starting from scratch. Others are getting back into movement after time off, and they want a clear, step-by-step way to build confidence again.
A big part of the work is making sure the exercise is done the right way. Dr Trotter provides guidance on proper exercise techniques, especially where small changes in movement can make a big difference. Over time, he monitors progress and adjusts exercise routines as your body responds. That means the plan doesn’t just sit on paper—it gets updated when you need it.
Sessions can also include education on the benefits of physical activity. It’s about understanding what you’re doing and why, not just “being given a workout”. At times, it can help to know how activity can support day-to-day energy, strength, and general wellbeing, so it feels more manageable to keep going.
Dr Trotter speaks English and Dutch, which can make appointments easier for people who prefer either language. This helps with explaining what’s happening, what to expect, and how to stay on track between visits.
