Nathan Merlino, Founder and Coach

Nathan Merlino
Nathan understands the demands of the corporate world because he lived them. Formerly a corporate accountant, he pivoted his career to become a personal trainer and gym-owner, alongside becoming a boxer, powerlifter, and marathon runner. This unique background lets him bridge the gap between high-pressure professional lives and high-performance physical health.
Nathan specialises in delivering structured, measurable results through a hybrid and holistic approach to fitness. Whether you’re looking to build foundational strength, train for a specific athletic milestone, or unlock how fitness can enhance your personal and professional life, his coaching is designed to be sustainable and effective for the long term.

Harry Turner, Personal Trainer

Harry Turner

Harry is a results-driven coach who leads from the front, combining an athlete’s mindset with structured, purposeful training. He prides himself on holding high standards while building strong bonds with clients, creating an environment of trust, accountability, and consistency. His coaching goes beyond the gym floor, helping clients build resilience, confidence, and habits that carry over into everyday life. The goal isn’t just to look better, it’s to move better, perform better, and become the best you that you can be.

Harry specialises in weight loss, body composition, and athletic performance. He also plays rugby at a high level, bringing a hybrid approach that blends strength, conditioning, and real-world athleticism into every program.

“The right environment and the right guidance can turn discipline into momentum.

That’s why I created The Refinery Studio.”
