MEMBER STORIES

I have been having PT sessions with Megan since July/August 2021. Honestly, it has been the best decision I have made. She is everything I could ask for in a PT. Megan is supportive, dedicated and the best hype girl anyone could ask for. My sessions with her are hard but fun and I couldn’t have got the results I have so far without her. 110% recommend Megan as a PT and cannot wait to keep my training going and see further results!

Frequently asked questions

There is a general misconception that you need an underlying level of fitness to work with a PT, but this is not the case. Personal Trainers are able to deliver exercise programmes and training sessions which are suitable for a range of abilities, from those who have never exercised through to those with years of training under their belt. Personal Training can be really helpful for those with limited experience or confidence with exercising. A PT can build an effective workout programme to achieve your goals, ensure you have the correct form, and answer any questions you have, helping you to build a strong foundation for years to come.

Most PTs will have a consultation session with their clients prior to their first session so that they can understand their current fitness levels, goals, and lifestyle is, so that the PT can build out a tailored plan.

There is no set rule for what a first session looks like, but it may include:

  •  A run through of your new workout programme to make sure you are comfortable with the exercises.
  • Asking you to perform certain exercises so the PT can check your form and understand your baseline level of fitness.
  • Taking you through the first workout of your new programme.
  • You may have your measurements and photo taken.

 

You will also have the chance to ask any questions, whether that’s about nutrition, certain exercises, or tracking your progress.

We have PTs across all our FHF gyms to choose from, which means you are sure to find someone suitable for your needs.

Personal Trainers prices vary as PTs set their own rates. As a rough benchmark, o, a PT session will typically cost between £30 – £65 for a 45-60 minute session. Factors that might influence the cost include their experience and expertise, location, and demographic, as well as the package – for example, if they offer WhatsApp support. Some PTs may offer discounted rates for online coaching, or if multiple sessions are paid for in advance. Many offer a range of products and services to suit different budgets, so it’s always best to speak to a Personal Trainer directly.
The cost of a Personal Trainer is not included in your FHF membership, so you will need to pay for your PT sessions on top of your membership. This can be arranged directly with the Personal Trainer you choose.

training style

Most of my clients are focus on functional training . Functional training is a type of intense exercise aimed at comprehensive muscle strengthening with building muscle mass. It consists in imitating the movements that we make every day in ordinary activities, but at a faster pace and with many repetitions. Which means , my clients except improvement they body shape ( buliding muscle or loosing body fat – which depends from weight and intensity) they also can by imitating frequently performed movements, functional fitness reduces the risk of injuries in everyday activities and allows us to move more confidently and efficiently. Due to the fact that it combines several types of movement simultaneously, it improves flexibility and coordination. In addition, a fast pace of exercise increases overall body performance and improves blood circulation. Also I specialised in bodybuilding workouts for bodybuilding competitions, which I am bringing for clients workout to improve they shape in areas which are they goals .This is my favourite type of training .

While building my experience, I realised how important it is to build deep muscles that interfere with everyday life and protect us from injuries. for this reason, I often introduce elements yoga and pilates to the training plans of my clients.

Tracking progress

My clients’ progress is measured by their smile. Everything depends from they goals, if is a loosing weight, we follow weight, we analyse pictures which they have to do every 2 weeks and we measure the circumference of the body.

For building muscle procedures are almost similar . With specific goals , most of the time I prepare challenges workout ,so my clients are able to see they performance in it .
