Frequently Asked Questions
What is PT?
Personal Training (or PT) is not about someone else barking orders at you. Nor is it only for top-level athletes training towards a major event, or just for celebs who fancy some pampering. PT means you exercise one-on-one with your own highly trained instructor beside you to guide, advise and motivate. As a beginner it can be a great introduction to the gym and will soon boost your knowledge and confidence. Experienced gym goers can use PT to take them to the next level of fitness.
Who is PT For?
Personal Training is for anyone who wants to reach their peak fitness level, improve their exercise and fitness knowledge or who finds it tough to motivate themselves. It’s also really helpful for anyone with a specific condition, illness or injury who wants to be sure they’re exercising safely, such as people with asthma, diabetes, high blood pressure or prolapsed discs, those recovering from surgery or pregnancy. It’s a great introduction to the gym for beginners and it can ensure that experienced gym members can progress to the next fitness level without getting stuck in an exercise rut.
Why is Personal Training so Effective?
Quite simply, Personal Training works because every exercise is designed to achieve your goals. You learn why ‘X’ weight or ‘Y’ repetitions are the right way forward, giving you the satisfaction that all your hard work is striving for maximum effect. It’s reassuring to know that with a Personal Trainer each lift, push, stretch or bend you do will be done correctly and safely and with your body in the right position. It’s also a fact that everyone pushes themselves much harder in the gym with another person alongside. On your own, it’s tempting to go easy on yourself. Seeing the physical results more quickly will in turn motivate you to stick with it. You’re much less likely to skip a gym visit if you’ve got a PT appointment to keep! As you progress, your Personal Trainer will introduce new ideas and vary the training so it never gets stale. We believe that once you try Personal Training and experience the benefits, you’ll be kicking yourself for not having done it sooner.—
