Benefits of having a PT at a private studio vs going to the gym alone…

What do you get from working with a PT in a private studio vs going to the gym alone? I wanted to highlight these differences in my own words as it’s important for people to realise it doens’t matter what your goals are – there are SO MANY benefits to working with a personal trainer! Obviously, the individual sessions are more expensive than your typical gym membership… BUT, it’s important to see this an investment in yourself, as this is what you’ll get in return…

  • Real, tangible progression ; actually notice yourself getting better and stronger and fitter

 

  • Results ; lift heavier weights, do more reps, have someone keeping track and helping you achieve goals

 

  • Education; learn how to use the equipment, learn the correct technique to develop muscle and keep you injury free

 

  • Accountability ; book your session in, then all you’ve got to do is turn up! You can’t talk yourself out of it, you can’t just back out – we’ve set a date, don’t let me down!

 

  • Frequent check ins ; talk regularly about progress and lifestyle changes which happen outside of the gym as well as in the gym; nutrition, steps, other exercise, sleep, water, alcohol, etc…

 

  • A chat or a therapy session (if you want one!); I WILL get to know you and we WILL talk about all kinds of stuff and have a laugh whilst getting in a great workout!

 

  • Privacy – the long term goal is to build your confidence in a gym environment, but if you feel anxious when visiting a commercial gym, then you needn’t worry. PT sessions take place in a lovely, friendly, fully equipped, private studio space.

 

  • Push yourself further and harder than you would by yourself; I will show you that you are capable of more than you thought!

 

  • Accessibility to all the equipment you need. No queuing/waiting around for machines or weights… you get in the gym, do your workout and leave. Efficiency is the name of the game!

 

  • Your own playlist. Kind of. Workout to music you LOVE! I will always ask if there’s anything you prefer to listen to and if we can get it playing, we will. Anything to help you through your workout!

 

  • FUN – it’s always better going to the gym with a mate, it just makes the time pass quicker and it’s more enjoyable – that’s exactly what a PT session is like. (Don’t worry, you will still be pushed…!)

 

  • Reassurance ; sometimes you just need someone telling you you’re doing it right, it helps with confidence and consistency!

 

  • Someone who cares and wants you to WIN ; I make sure all my clients are happy with their sessions and goals. I want you to bloody smash them! And I get excited when you do!

I offer discounts for block bookings and I also offer 2:1 and 1:1 sessions – please get in touch if you’d like a female PT and you’re based in Chester – I can help you ahcieve those goals!
