In this article we will be looking a bit more closely at our 1:1 and small group coaching programs. Weighing up the pros and cons of each and helping you decide which is right for you. Let's start with our 1:1 Personal Training Options first. 

1:1 Personal Training

So our 1:1 Coaching (personal training) options are built entirely around you, your goals and the information we obtain from your individual assessment. The programs can be tailored to help you achieve anything you need to. All our 1:1 Coaching Packages include full nutrition support and daily habit coaching to ensure you are optimally fuelling yourself to get the most out of your training sessions. 

You will benefit more from 1:1 coaching if you:
  • Have a very specific training goal. You might be training specifically for a run or a specific endurance event, a combat sport, body building or any other specific sport. This is where we can build you a specific program to target the demands of you sport and track improvements in your fitness and performance. 
  • You might have a current injury that means we would need to do some specific rehab work in order to get you back to being pain free
  • You might have a very low starting point and low in confidence. Here 1:1 training will help you build a solid foundation and we will be able to improve your fitness, strength and movement capabilities at your own pace. 
  • Work shifts and are unable to attend the gym at regular time slots each week. Our 1:1 sessions are a bit more flexible, you can change the appointment days/times each week and we can set you up with a specific program that you can do in-between sessions at your convenience. 
  • If you feel you would benefit more from having your coaches undivided attention and simply prefer that to being in a group.

Small Group Coaching

Our Small Group Coaching Programs are designed specifically to turn you into a well rounded athlete, giving you a good balance between strength, power, endurance and flexibility. We use tried and tested strength and conditioning principles to help you enhance and maintain all aspects of your health and fitness. We vary the focus of our training sessions every week to ensure you are able to focus on both strength and power and erobic conditioning every week. 

Both our Evening Club and our Morning Club Small Group Programs include full nutrition and habit coaching support and guidance, just like we provide to our 1:1 coaching clients. 

You will benefit more from our Small Group Coaching Program if you: 
  • If your overall goal is to improve general fitness and overall health
  • If you want to make general changes to your body composition (to look fitter and leaner by reducing body fat and increasing muscle mass)
  • If you feel like you would enjoy and thrive in a team environment (friendly competition, banter and camaraderie
  • Cannot afford to attend more than 1 personal training session per week
  • If you struggle to motivate yourself to get into the gym and complete your program by yourself 
  • If you can commit 45 mins per day 3-5 days per week to imporving your health
  • If you would like to make fitness your new sport

How much does each one cost?

Our 1:1 personal training sessions start at £30 for you first 4 sessions then they are proced at £35 per session thereafter. This does include individual program design and nutrition coaching as standard (minimum attendance is one session per week)

Monthly Cost- £140 (1 session per week) rising to £420 (3 sessions per week)

Our Small Group Program starts at £10 for a 1 week trial (training only) then rises to a standard cost of £95 per month, which includes up to 5 small group coaching sessions per week plus full nutrition and habit coaching support. 

Which do we as coaches beleive is the best option for someone who's goal is weight loss and general health and fitness?

The group program is designed specifically to cross the bridge between 1:1 personal training and group fitness classes. In all honesty, once you achieve a reasonable level of competence in basic movments like the squat, lunge, press up and overhead press, we can train you just as effectively in a group environment as we can 1:1. We track your performance in a variety of strength and endurance workouts to help you see how you are progressing and we provide the exact same habit coaching and nutrition coaching as we do to our 1:1 PT clients. 

So unless you have very specific training needs like we outlined earlier in the article. IN terms of bang for your buck, the group programs are a no brainer!
