You do not need to have masses of equipment. If you have a fully stocked home gym, then that’s brilliant but you will also get the same results from a set of dumbbells and resistance bands. Our trainers are first and foremost used to working with clients on a bodyweight approach so that they can fully assess you. From there, our fitness pros can suggest the most appropriate lightweight and affordable equipment. This will often be bits and pieces that you can purchase on Amazon or your nearest sports store. So please don’t panic, you will be guided on anything additional when you start your training, and it will always be your decision about what to purchase.

Safety is of utmost importance to us and as many of us have experienced, this is a fast moving situation with regular updates and changes. We feel a huge responsibility to keep you and our PT’s safe during sessions. The following measures have been implemented to make sure we are adhering to government guidelines:

• All in person sessions should be conducted outdoors where possible with social distancing in place of 1 metre
• There will be no hands on adjustments by your trainer
• Your personal trainer will wear a face mask if appropriate, if training you indoors or entering via your house to reach a garden/outdoor space.
• We won’t be sharing any of our personal fitness equipment with you during this period
• If we or your PT feel that you are in a vulnerable category e.g. elderly or with underlying health conditions, we will flag this with our trainer so that you can reach a plan of action together on the best option for your training plan. We are doing our best to help all of our clients navigate this tricky time.
• We have introduced online personal training sessions, which are very much here to stay as hundreds of our clients have enjoyed the efficiency and results of this new option.

As a team, we pay close attention to government updates and adjust these guidelines as necessary.

Matching people to one another is an art form, and we take it seriously because we know you will achieve far better results and enjoyment if we get this right. Personal training is a very human business, and so our team of fitness matchmakers will review your answers carefully to understand you in more detail. It will then be over to you and your personal trainer to connect in your consultation. Luckily, we get around 95% of our matches spot on, and we are always on the other end of the phone if you aren’t sure.

In short, no. Many of you talk to us about how much you don’t enjoy being in these environments and so at Motivate we are keen to show our clients that you do not need to be in a gym to achieve the results that you want. Our approach is about education, showing you in your sessions how you can achieve long term, sustainable results, for your body type, because we are all unique. The most brilliant thing about training from home or outdoors, is that, as soon as you feel ready, you can craft your own sessions in between your scheduled personal training sessions. We love inspiring you to feel confident enough to know that you can train anywhere and achieve real transformation.
