Personal Training

• What is personal training?

  • Personal training consists of one on one coaching from a certified personal fitness trainer… this trainer teaches you, motivates you, and gets you to work hard consistently while following a detailed fitness and nutrition plan which the trainer develops for you based on you and your goals.

    Personal training is the most effective method of achieving your health, fitness, and/or weight loss goals as it utilizes the most effective exercise and nutrition strategies while at the same time it keeps you continuously making progress.

• How will I benefit from working with a personal trainer?

  • You WILL benefit in so many different ways… here’s just a short list:

    • advanced knowledge
    • motivation
    • accountability
    • consistency
    • most effective exercise and nutrition strategies
    • measure and track your progress

    Here are some more benefits:

    • increased strength
    • lose weight
    • reduce risk of injury
    • burn off stubborn body fat
    • increase metabolism
    • improve flexibility
    • eliminate aches and pains
    • tighten and tone muscles
• What kind of results can I expect?

  • It honestly depends primarily on how bad you want to achieve your goals and how hard you are willing to work. Our personal training programs will allow you to get the most out of your fitness and nutrition.

• How often should I meet with a personal trainer?

  • This will depend upon your goals, how quickly you want to achieve them, your schedule and time available to exercise, and your budget… but when considering the cost, be sure to remember that this is your health and there is nothing on earth that is more important… because without it you have nothing.

    On average, most clients do best when they meet with a personal trainer 2-3 times per week… less than that many people will slack off and not get nearly as much out of it. Here are a few things to keep in mind when determining how often you’ll meet with your trainer…

    1. How fast do you want to achieve your goal and see results? The more frequently you meet with your trainer the faster you’ll see results and achieve your goals and there are several reasons for this… consistency, accountability, motivation, guidance, you’ll work much harder with your trainer than on your own, etc.

    2. How much experience with exercise do you have and how much do you really know? While many people have exercised before, many for years… but do you really know it all? It’s not likely… we spend years and years studying and learning to know what we know and our primary focus is on helping and teaching you. Why leave your fitness results to chance?

• What areas do you service?

  • Sessions are held at Gold’s Gym Omotesando, in your home or outdoors.

• Do I need to have equipment if I am going to be working with a trainer in my home?

  • You do not need equipment to have a good work out, your trainer will bring equipment along but at the end of the day the more equipment you have the more variety you get! I recommend the following:

    • WEIGHTS: At the least, a barbell, two dumbbell handles and various weight plates from 1.25kg to 20kg.
    • SWISS BALL: A good strong ball for core training either 55-65cm in diameter.
    • CARDIO EQUIPMENT: If you have the extra money a bike or treadmill is very useful. Good for bad weather but, also so you never have an excuse to having the facilities or it being too hot to train outside!
• Are all of your personal trainers certified? Insured?

  • Yes, all of our personal trainers hold multiple certifications, and/or degrees, we carry a comprehensive insurance policy, and we have both male and female personal trainers available.

Group Classes

• What Group Training classes do you have?

  • Boot camp, core & cardio and boxing.

• I am not fit, can I still do Boot Camp?

  • Yes! Your instructor ensures participants of all fitness levels are catered for.

• Do I have to book in advance?

  • No. All classes are “drop-in”. Please pay your instructor on the day.

• Can I participate if I am injured?

  • It depends on your injury. Your instructor is qualified to modify exercises for most injuries. Please inform your instructor of any known injuries prior to the session.

• How many particiants per class?

  • The average number is around 6 people per class.

• What if it rains?

  • It really depends on how wet it is! We are not afraid of a little rain but if it is deemed dangerous, the class will be cancelled.

    Killer Push (chest) Superset!
