Personal Training Sessions Descriptions
Initial Package
Before starting your personal training journey, it’s essential for your trainer to understand your unique preferences, movement patterns, and fitness background. The Initial Package is designed to do just that. This package can be scheduled as either one 60-minute session or two 30-minute sessions, depending on your availability and preference. During these sessions, your trainer will gather key information such as:
- Your exercise history
- Functional movement assessments
- Personal goals and preferences
- Any other relevant details to support your success
These sessions serve as a baseline assessment, providing valuable insights that will guide your trainer to create a plan for when you work together and allow for progress tracking over time. Note: Completion of the Initial Package is required before purchasing any ongoing training packages.
One-on-One Training Sessions
Once you’ve completed the Initial Package, you’re ready to begin working one-on-one with your personal trainer to pursue the goals you’ve outlined together. These sessions are fully customized to your needs, preferences, and the program your trainer has designed specifically for you.
Choose from packages of 4, 8, or 12 sessions, depending on your goals, timeline, and how frequently you’d like to train. With each session, you’ll receive expert guidance, accountability, and motivation from a dedicated coach who’s committed to your success. Note: Completion of the Initial Package is required before purchasing any one-on-one training sessions.
Partner Training Sessions
Want to train but not quite ready to go at it alone? Partner Training is a fun, motivating, and cost-effective way to work toward your fitness goals—with someone by your side. After completing your Initial Packages, your trainer will design customized workouts that align with both you and your partner’s goals.
Whether you’re teaming up with a friend, spouse/partner, or workout buddy, you’ll benefit from:
- Built-in accountability
- A shared support system
- Personalized programming for both individuals
- And—you both save money! Win. Win. Win.
Before You Sign Up:
- Coordinate schedules with your partner in advance to ensure consistent attendance and easier trainer scheduling.
- Both clients must be present for each session. If one person can’t attend, the session will still be deducted from both accounts.
- Each person must purchase their own training package—prices are per individual.
- An Initial Package is required for each participant before starting. This can be completed individually or together, depending on your shared goals.
