General

Absolutely. Both personal training and group classes are tailored to your fitness level. Personal training sessions provide one-on-one guidance, helping beginners build confidence and progress safely at their own pace. Group classes are designed to accommodate all abilities, with progressions and regressions offered for each exercise, ensuring a supportive and inclusive environment for everyone

This notion is predominantly a misconception. Engaging in Strenth training once or twice a week does not typically result in bulky musculature.

Nevertheless, it offers benefits such as weight management, joint injury prevention, skill acquisition for proper form and technique, thereby enhancing overall quality of life and functional capacity for daily tasks.

Personal training and group sessions are open to all ages, provided there are no medical conditions preventing participation. Sessions can be tailored to meet the needs of children, adults, and seniors.

It is advisable to prioritise rest and consult with your general practitioner (GP) before engaging in any physical activity.

If you do decide to attend, please be aware that we reserve the right to turn away individuals whom we deem too unwell to safely participate.

It is recommended that you consult with your trainer before attending your session, as decisions will be made on a case-by-case basis.

Your session may be adjusted to accommodate or work around the injury, but we advise seeking guidance from a medical professional, such as a registered physiotherapist, if you have any doubts. Depending on the severity of your injury, updating your PAR-Q may be necessary.

Physical training improves cardiovascular health, increases strength, enhances flexibility, boosts mental health, and helps manage weight. It can also improve sleep, energy levels, and reduce the risk of chronic diseases.

Training logistics

This depends on your goals, but most clients see progress with 2–3 sessions per week, combined with consistent effort outside of training and proper nutrition.

No, all necessary equipment is provided. However, if you prefer to use your own, you are welcome to bring it.

Comfortable, breathable clothing and supportive footwear are ideal. Make sure you can move freely during exercises.

Group classes are designed for all fitness levels, with progressions and regressions offered for each exercise. Beginners are always welcome and fully supported.

No, unfortunately, we do not currently offer virtual sessions for those who prefer to train remotely or cannot attend in person.

Health & Safety

No, it is best to rest and recover if you are unwell to avoid prolonging illness or spreading germs to others. Notify your trainer as soon as possible to discuss rescheduling.

It depends on the nature of the injury. Always inform your trainer in advance so they can adapt the session to avoid aggravating the injury or focus on rehabilitation exercises if necessary.

Certain medical conditions or injuries may require modifications to your training programme. Always disclose any conditions to your trainer, and they will advise you accordingly.

Progress & Results

No, strength and conditioning training is designed to improve overall strength, endurance, and fitness. Building excessive muscle bulk typically requires specific training and a calorie surplus diet.

Your trainer will provide regular feedback and monitor your progress throughout the sessions. You can also keep track of your achievements in a personal logbook to visually capture your progress over time.

Nutritional guidance is available for 1:1 personal training clients and can be tailored to support your goals.

Setting Goals & starting Your Journey

Start by identifying realistic, specific, and measurable goals that align with your health needs. Consult a healthcare professional or personal trainer to ensure your plan aligns with your health needs. If you have dietary restrictions, work with a registered dietitian to create a meal plan that supports your goals while accommodating your limitations.

The NHS recommends at least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity per week, combined with strength training exercises on two or more days. Tailor your routine to your goals and fitness level.

Professionals can create personalised meal plans based on your goals, preferences, and medical history. They provide evidence-based advice, helping you avoid misinformation and achieve sustainable results.

Managing Weight & Health

Combine regular physical activity with a balanced diet that includes appropriate portions of protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats. Focus on long-term habits, such as meal planning, mindful eating, and staying hydrated. Consistency is key.

Rapid weight loss is often unsustainable and can negatively impact your health. Instead, aim for a gradual loss of 0.5–1kg (1–2 pounds) per week through a combination of calorie control, regular exercise, and healthy lifestyle changes. Focus on creating a sustainable calorie deficit.

Weight loss can be affected by factors such as inconsistent calorie tracking, inadequate sleep, stress, or hormonal imbalances. Review your eating habits, activity levels, and lifestyle. A trainer or dietitian can help identify obstacles and suggest adjustments.

Nutrition & Hydration

Eat a variety of whole foods, including fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats. Limit processed foods, added sugars, and excessive salt. Balance your macronutrient intake to meet your energy needs and activity level.

• Macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, and fats) provide the energy and building blocks needed for performance and recovery.
• Micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) support immune function, bone health, and energy production. A well-rounded diet ensures you meet both requirements.

 

Drink water consistently throughout the day, aiming for 6–8 glasses (approximately 2 litres) as a baseline. Increase intake during exercise or in hot weather. Monitor your thirst and the colour of your urine as hydration indicators.

Hydration helps regulate body temperature, maintain energy levels, and prevent muscle cramps or fatigue. Even mild dehydration can impair performance and recovery, so it’s essential to hydrate before, during, and after exercise.

Sustainability & Long-Term Success

Gradual changes allow your body and mind to adapt, reducing the risk of burnout or injury. They also make it easier to form lasting habits, leading to sustainable progress over time.

• Get enough sleep and manage stress levels.
• Prioritise consistency rather than perfection.
• Find physical activities you enjoy to stay motivated.
• Plan and prepare meals in advance to avoid unhealthy choices.
• Regularly reassess your goals and adjust your routine as needed.

Pre-Natal

Yes, personal training is safe during pregnancy, as long as you are cleared by your healthcare provider. Your trainer will tailor the sessions to accommodate your changing body and specific needs, focusing on maintaining fitness, improving posture, and preparing for labour. We modify exercises to ensure your safety and comfort.

We do not offer specific post-natal group classes at this time. In the early stages of post-natal recovery, we strongly recommend 1:1 personal training sessions. These allow for personalised attention tailored to your recovery needs and ensure a safe and effective build-up to fitness.
Once you’ve regained strength and confidence, you may be able to join our general classes, which can be adapted for post-natal participants, including those with conditions such as diastasis recti or pelvic floor issues. However, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider and discussing your needs with our instructors before attending any group classes.

Yes, there are certain exercises you should avoid during pregnancy to ensure both your safety and the safety of your baby. Some exercises may need to be modified or avoided entirely as your pregnancy progresses. These include:

Lying flat on your back (especially after the first trimester): This can put pressure on the vena cava, reducing blood flow to your heart and potentially affecting the oxygen supply to the baby.

High-impact exercises: Activities that involve jumping, running, or sudden, jarring movements can increase the risk of injury and may be uncomfortable as your pregnancy progresses.

Deep abdominal exercises: Movements such as crunches or sit-ups can put excessive strain on the abdominal muscles, leading to diastasisrecti (separation of the abdominal muscles) or increased pressure on the pelvic floor.

Exercises that involve heavy lifting: Lifting excessively heavy weights can put undue strain on your joints, back, and core, and may cause discomfort or injury.

Overstretching: Hormonal changes during pregnancy cause your ligaments to become more relaxed, so excessive stretching could increase the risk of injury.

Always consult with your personal trainer and healthcare provider to ensure you’re making safe and appropriate exercise choices. Your trainer can help modify exercises and suggest safer alternatives to suit your changing body and specific needs during pregnancy.

 

In most cases, it’s safe to continue your regular fitness routine during pregnancy, but modifications are likely necessary. It’s best to reduce intensity and focus on lower-impact exercises to maintain strength, flexibility, and cardiovascular health without overexerting yourself. Always consult your healthcare provider before continuing or starting any exercise programme.

Personal training can help you maintain or improve strength, flexibility, and cardiovascular fitness, all of which can support a healthier pregnancy. Tailored training will help prevent back pain, manage weight gain, and improve circulation. Additionally, strength training can help prepare your body for the physical demands of childbirth.

 

Post-Natal

Yes, personal training is beneficial post-natal, but it’s essential to wait until you have been cleared by your healthcare provider (usually around six weeks after delivery). Your trainer will design a programme to help you regain strength, improve posture, and focus on pelvic floor exercises. Exercises will start gently and progress as your body recovers.

We do not offer specific post-natal group classes at this time. In the early stages of post-natal recovery, we strongly recommend 1:1 personal training sessions. These allow for personalised attention tailored to your recovery needs and ensure a safe and effective build-up to fitness.

Once you’ve regained strength and confidence, you may be able to join our general classes, which can be adapted for post-natal participants, including those with conditions such as diastasis recti or pelvic floor issues. However, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider and discussing your needs with our instructors before attending any group classes.

The timing for resuming exercise after childbirth depends on your individual recovery and the advice of your healthcare provider. While some women may be able to start light activities such as walking within the first few weeks, more intense exercise should generally be postponed until after the six-week post-natal check-up. It’s crucial to consult your healthcare provider before resuming any physical activity to ensure it’s safe for you. Once cleared, personal training can be tailored to your specific recovery stage, with a focus on gradual progression to avoid injury or complications. Always prioritise safety and follow medical guidance when returning to exercise.

The key focus areas post-natal include core strength (particularly the pelvic floor), improving posture (to counteract the effects of pregnancy and breastfeeding), rebuilding strength, and regaining overall fitness. Exercises targeting the lower back, hips, and glutes can also be important to improve functional strength and stability.

Immediately after childbirth, it’s essential to avoid high-impact exercises, intense core exercises (such as crunches), and any movement that places excessive pressure on your pelvic floor. These exercises can strain your body while it is still recovering, especially if your pelvic floor muscles are weak or stretched. Additionally, movements that involve heavy lifting or rapid, jerky motions should be avoided until your body has regained strength and stability.

In the early stages of post-natal recovery, focus on gentle, low-impact activities that support healing, such as pelvic floor exercises, walking, and breathing techniques. Your personal trainer will guide you through exercises that are safe for your recovery phase, prioritising pelvic floor strengthening, gentle core activation, and overall body conditioning to gradually build strength without risking injury. Always listen to your body and consult with your healthcare provider to ensure that you’re ready to progress to more intense exercises.

Personal training can help you regain your pre-pregnancy fitness levels, improve your pelvic floor strength, and address common issues like diastasisrecti. Personalised training ensures you’re recovering safely and effectively, rebuilding strength, improving mobility, and managing any discomfort or post-natal conditions you may experience.

While we don’t offer post-natal group classes, we recommend them as an excellent option for post-natal recovery once your body is ready. It’s important to wait until you’ve fully recovered and received clearance from your healthcare provider before joining any group class. In the early post-natal phase, particularly before your six-week check-up, high-impact and intense exercises should be avoided to ensure safe recovery.

Post-natal recovery group classes are specifically designed to support gradual strength rebuilding, focusing on core rehabilitation, pelvic floor exercises, and overall body conditioning. These classes are tailored for mums who are further along in their recovery journey.

We advise you consult with your healthcare provider before participating in post-natal group classes. Once cleared, these classes can provide a safe and supportive environment for new mums to connect while focusing on rebuilding strength. For the early stages of recovery, we recommend 1:1 personal training sessions, where your trainer can provide a more personalised approach based on your individual needs.
