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 💪

Last Saturday we completed WEEK 5! Half way through this course ✅

It was all about putting theory into practice 💪

We started by discussing how to modify exercises for different fitness components and training goals before moving into a full day of practical coaching.

Working in groups, students used a client case study to:
✔️ Build SMART goals
✔️ Create a periodisation plan
✔️ Design a 30-minute PT session

They also designed two different styles of 30-minute group fitness classes.

The real challenge came next 👀

In the studio, students coached sections of their group classes, and in the gym they stepped into the role of Personal Trainer for the first time, delivering a full 30-minute PT session to another member of the group.

The day finished with feedback, reflection, and plenty of learning opportunities. It was fantastic to see everyone applying the knowledge they've built over the last few weeks and growing in confidence as coaches.

Well done everyone 👏 Roll on the Mock Assessments!

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 👏
