So, you’ve made the decision to join a private studio gym, great move! Whether you’re new to fitness or looking to elevate your routine, your first visit sets the tone for your entire journey. At a studio like Athletic Development Club, the process is designed to be welcoming, supportive, and highly personalised.
Meet Your Coach and Explore the Space
Your introduction begins with meeting your dedicated personal trainer or coach. They’ll guide you through the facility, including the gym floor, changing rooms, and other key areas, ensuring you feel completely at ease. It’s the perfect time to ask questions and start building that all important coach-client rapport.
Goal Setting and Consultation
After the tour, you’ll sit down for a one-on-one consultation to discuss your fitness goals, training history, and any special requirements you might have. Whether you’re training for an event, recovering from injury, or just aiming to feel stronger and healthier, your coach will work with you to map out a realistic timeline and supportive plan for both your training and nutrition.
Fitness and Movement Assessment
Next, your first session. It starts with a movement and fitness assessment, where your trainer will identify any physical imbalances or areas of weakness. You’ll also have a body composition analysis scan to understand your current metrics such as muscle mass and body fat. These insights help tailor your program right from the start.
Equipment Walkthrough and Warm-Up
Once assessments are done, it’s time to get moving. You’ll be introduced to the gym equipment and learn how to use it safely and effectively. After a guided warm-up (think mobility work and dynamic stretches) you’ll be coached through basic movements with light weights to find your comfort level and establish good form. Depending on how everything feels, we may up the weight and try some more challenging exercises, but all at your pace.
Your Personalised Program Begins
Finally, you’ll review what your personalised training and nutrition plan will look like moving forward. This overview sets the foundation for your future sessions and ensures everything is aligned with your goals.
Your first session is just the beginning, but it’s a crucial step toward lasting progress. At a private gym, it’s not just about the workout, it’s about building a fitness journey that’s truly yours.
