Week 4 complete ✅

Another busy day for our PT students 💪

This week we recapped periodisation before covering:
✔️ Coaching strategies
✔️ Client assessments
✔️ Different training methods
✔️ F**T & SPORT principles
✔️ Set variations for different training styles

In the studio, Marcio and Alex coached the warm-ups 👏 and everyone took part in a 45-minute workout where we learned how to coach EMOM and AMRAP training.

We also covered stretching techniques and discussed the importance of using the correct methods during warm-ups and cool-downs.

The gym session was packed 😅 We went through different cardio machines, coaching points, and a variety of cable exercises while continuing to build confidence using NAMSET principles and coaching each other.

Lots of learning, lots of coaching, and plenty to practise before Week 5 🔥

Week 3 complete ✅

This week our PT students recapped key foundations like fitness components, fundamental movements, NAMSET, and RAMP principles before adding new topics like F**T, SPORT principles, contraindications in fitness, and one of our biggest topics yet… periodisation 🔥

We learned how to structure training plans through:

✔️ Macrocycles
✔️ Mesocycles
✔️ Microcycles

In the studio, two more students coached their warm-ups and everyone took part in a 30-minute circuits class.

In the gym, students continued practising their coaching skills while learning new exercises like pull-ups, bicep curls, and plank progressions.

Every week their confidence continues to grow 💪 Roll on Week 4!

Week 2 complete ✅

Another big day on our 6th Personal Training Course 💪

We recapped key course info, deadlines, PAR-Q forms, and continued building SMART goals for our client case studies.

On the theory side, we covered:

✅ Health & skill-related fitness components
✅ Fitness testing for different goals
✅ Fundamental movement patterns
✅ The stabilisation system & core training and why this matters when working with clients

We also revisited warm-up principles, and two students stepped up to coach the group through their own warm-ups 👏

Gym practical was all about building confidence through coaching and technique using our NAMSET principles.

We revised last week’s lifts and added new exercises like RDLs, hex bar deadlifts, planks, push-ups, goblet squats, split squats, and more 🔥

Each week the group is becoming more confident coaching one another, and it’s great to watch 👏

Roll on week 3 💯

Week 1 complete ✅

What a way to kick off our 6th Personal Training Course 💪

2nd of May was our first day - we covered everything from course expectations, assessments and deadlines to key theory topics like PAR-Q forms, fitness testing, SMART goals and the 7 fundamental movement patterns.

Then it was straight into the gym where students got familiar with the facility and began learning how to coach foundational exercises like squats, deadlifts, bench press, rows and carries using our NAMSET teaching principles.

A lot of information for day one, but everyone showed up ready to learn and absolutely smashed it 👏

It starts with one decision.

This Saturday, 2nd May, you could begin your journey to becoming a qualified Personal Trainer.
