Week 4 complete - 10.10.2026 ✅

Another busy Saturday for our Personal Training students! 💪🔥

This week was all about connecting the theory with real-life coaching and learning how to design effective training sessions.

We covered:
✔️ Periodisation recap
✔️ F**T & SPORT principles
✔️ Coaching strategies & client assessments
✔️ Different training methods
✔️ Training for strength, power & muscular endurance

In the gym, students continued developing their coaching skills, focusing on technique, exercise modifications, and teaching points. We also introduced a range of cable machine exercises, exploring correct setup, technique, and muscle engagement. 🏋️‍♀️

Another great week of learning and building confidence!

After all, being a great PT isn't just about knowing exercises - it's about understanding WHY, WHEN and HOW to use them! 💪🔥

A special shoutout to my amazing students this week! ❤️👏

I was a little out of action following a minor surgical procedure, which meant I couldn't demonstrate the exercises as I normally would.

But everyone stepped up, helped with demonstrations, and kept everything running smoothly! 💪

Thank you all so much for your support, teamwork, and understanding. It's lovely to see you already putting your skills and knowledge into practice - and making my job a little easier along the way! 🥰👏

This week we focused on:

✔️ SMART goals & client planning
✔️ Periodisation – understanding macrocycles, mesocycles, and microcycles and how to structure effective training plans

We even had a little test to check everyone's understanding! 👀😂

In the studio, we explored different stretching techniques and when to use them during warm-ups and cool-downs. Sara and Joanna also stepped up to coach their prepared warm-ups using RAMP principles 👏

In the gym, students continued developing their coaching skills using NAMSET principles, while exploring push-up and bench press modifications, along with a variety of plank progressions and adaptations for different clients. 🏋️‍♀️

Another great week of learning and building coaching confidence!

Well done everyone! Roll on Week 4! 🔥💪

A little apology for being quiet on here over the last few weeks! 🙈

The last three weeks have been incredibly busy as we've been preparing our students for their Practical Assessments and then recording their final assessments. Between teaching, giving individual feedback, and supporting everyone through the process, social media had to take a back seat!

Here's a quick recap of what we've been up to... 💪

Over the last few weeks, our students have been putting everything they've learned throughout the course into practice. We focused heavily on preparing for the Practical Assessments, building professional PAR-Q forms, designing complete PT sessions, refining coaching techniques, and understanding exactly what is expected during their final assessments.

We also spent time discussing business and the next steps after qualification, helping students start thinking about turning their passion into a career.

In the studio, our students continued delivering their group class assessments, with everyone doing a fantastic job! 👏

In the gym, the focus shifted to technique. We analysed videos of the students techniques together, discussed how to improve movement quality, explored the anatomy behind different exercises, and looked at how small technique changes can better target specific muscles.

The biggest highlight of the past few weeks has been watching our students complete their Practical Assessments. Congratulations to all students on completing theirs, and well done to everyone who has stepped up and put months of hard work into practice. You should all be incredibly proud of yourselves. 👏

Seeing the confidence, knowledge and coaching ability develop from Week 1 to now has been amazing, and we can't wait to celebrate everyone crossing the finish line.

The end of the course is in sight... keep pushing! 🔥💪

Week 6 complete ✅

Another big step towards assessments for our PT students 💪

This week we discussed how to prepare for the Mock Assessments, recapped exercise modifications for different fitness components, and explored how nutrition works in real-life settings.

Students also designed and exchanged 30-minute group classes, meaning they'll soon be coaching sessions created by someone else, a great way to develop adaptability and coaching confidence 👏

The practical side included a 35-minute spinning class where we analysed the class structure and fitness components being trained, followed by a range of bodyweight exercises and progressions.

The highlight of the day was the gym practical, where students completed their 30-minute PT Mock Assessments. It was fantastic to see everyone applying the knowledge and coaching skills they've developed over the last six weeks 🔥

We're getting closer to the final assessments now - keep practising, keep learning, and keep building confidence 💪
