Why Choose Group Coaching?

There are muscle bound men, no doubt in sleeveless shirts, performing countless bicep curls mere inches from full length mirrors; women in spandex outfits that look as if they may have been painted on that morning striding effortlessly on elliptical machines and reading Cosmo simultaneously; and some weirdo off in the back doing something on a large rubber ball that looks like it should be occurring on a stage in Cirque de Soleil. Rather than risk embarrassment, you shuffle over to a stationary bike, sit back and begin to peddle while watching Oprah, barely breaking a sweat, only to leave in less than an hour. Sound familiar? If so then it is time to step beyond your comfort zone and into the supportive and energetic atmosphere of group coaching.

For half the price of personal training you can reap the benefits of working with a qualified trainer, performing a periodized program designed to help you reach your goals and become familiar and comfortable with the oft misunderstood and intimidating beast that is fitness. Not only that, you will be surrounded by likeminded people with similar goals who will support you, and push you. If you are like most of us, it is easy to find excuses to skip a workout if you’re slightly fatigued or just not “feeling it” on a given day, but when you’re accountable to a group who knows you and expects you, it is much more difficult to rationalize skipping a workout.

So if you are one of the many people who are daunted by fitness and are looking for a leg-up when it comes to getting in shape, group coaching is for you!
