SEMI-PRIVATE PERSONAL TRAINING FOR COUPLES IN MONTREAL

Semi-Private Personal Training: Working Out Together

The principle is simple: you get the same time slot, the same coach, but a session adapted to each person's level.

So you won't necessarily have the same exercises, the same loads or the same number of reps.

We start with an individual assessment to understand your fitness level, your experience and any pain you might have.

From there, I adapt the training to each of you.

You can have different levels and different needs while training together in the same session.

Personal Training for Two People at Different Levels

You don't need to be at the exact same level to train together.

One of you might already have years of gym experience while the other is coming back after several months off.

In that case, I don't try to force you into the same program.

I can keep a common base, then adjust the loads, the number of reps, the rest times or certain exercises.

You stay together during the session, but the work is adjusted to each of you.

Semi-Private Coaching for Weight Loss and Getting Back in Shape

Weight loss is one of the goals couples reach out to me for.

A couple already training together, for example, told me they wanted to lose weight and improve their habits.

In that case, I'm not just going to have you do the same exercises side by side.

I look at your current level and what each of you is capable of.

So even with a shared goal, the training can be different for each of you.

You move forward together, but each at your own level.

How a Semi-Private Personal Training Session Works

The first session starts with an individual assessment.

I take about twenty minutes with each of you to get a clearer picture of your situation before starting the training.

This assessment covers:

• your general health and any precautions to take into account;
• your sports background and current level;
• any pain or old injuries, to identify which movements to adapt or avoid;
• your eating habits, especially if your goal involves weight loss or body composition;
• your lifestyle, your daily activity and your habits;
• your goals, to determine what you actually want to get out of the coaching.

Based on this assessment, I can build training adapted to your condition rather than handing you a standard program.

And even though you're training as a couple, this part stays individual: your needs aren't necessarily the same as your partner's.

Semi-Private Personal Training Rates in Montreal

For reference, my individual rates are currently:

• $50 for a one-hour session at the gym;
• $50 for thirty minutes online.

The individual session rate shouldn't be confused with the rate for training as a couple.

Semi-Private Personal Training Online

You can follow your training from home without needing to travel to the gym.

Sessions are adapted to whatever equipment you have.

One client I've worked with remotely, for example, had resistance bands, loop bands, 6 lb dumbbells and a balance pad at home.

And if you have little or no equipment, bodyweight training works too.

The principle stays the same: I adapt the training to your level and to what you actually have available. Online personal training has its own page.

Personal Trainer on the Plateau in Montreal

I've been coaching in Montreal since 2016.

Individual gym sessions currently take place at MFitness, at 4200 Saint-Laurent Boulevard, on the Plateau.

If you'd rather avoid traveling, then semi-private training online works well.
