About the program

​

​

Q: Is online training as effective as in-person training?

​

A: Yes, online training can be just as effective, if not more so, because it puts you in the driver's seat. Your success depends on your consistency and dedication. My role is to provide you with the structure, knowledge, and accountability needed to achieve your goals, and I am available to answer questions and provide support at any time.

​

Q: Who is online training for?

​

A: Online training is ideal for individuals who are motivated to work out on their own but need a structured plan and ongoing support.

​

Q: What results can I expect?

The training process

 

Q: What happens during the initial consultation?

​

A: The process begins with several detailed intake questionnaires including lifestyle, goal setting, medical history, and nutrition. A video or phone call might be arranged to discuss further. We'll discuss your fitness history, health status, goals, and lifestyle. This information allows me to create a fully customized plan that is effective and sustainable for you.

​

Q: Do I need a gym membership or special equipment?

​

A: No, a gym membership is not required, but is highly recommended. That said,  your program will be customized to fit your specific needs and what's available to you. This could be a full gym, a set of resistance bands, a home gym setup, or just your body weight.

​

Q: How is my workout program designed?

​

A: Your custom program is based on the information we gather during your initial assessments. It is not a generic, "cookie-cutter" plan, but will include all 8 basic human movement patterns, appropriate cardio, and nutritional guidance. Your program will be adjusted over time based on your consistency, progress, feedback, and any changes in your schedule or fitness level.

​

Q: How do you handle exercise form correction?

​

A: Your program automatically includes detailed instructional videos for each exercise. If you want specific feedback, you can submit a video of yourself performing the movement through the app. I will review it and provide corrections and coaching cues to ensure proper and safe form. Should the exercise be unsuitable for you at any given time, I will replace it with a more appropriate one.

​

Q: What if I get sick or injured?

​

A: If you get sick or injured, it's important to let me know right away. We can adjust your programming to include lighter movements, rest, and mobility work to support your recovery without derailing your progress. I may also recommend you seek professional medical attention in certain situations.

​

Q: Can you help me with a nutrition plan?

​

A: As a Certified Nutrition Coach, I will be helping you with the nutrition side of your program.

You have an option to upgrade to full Nutrition Coaching, where I can provide sample meal plans tailored to you, recipes, shopping lists and more. Note that any meal plan supplied is a suggestion only.  Should you be seeking a diet to treat a specific illness or diet requirement, I will recommend that you consult. a registered dietitian for more specific dietary guidance.

​

Q: What should I do on my "off" days?

​

A: For you your non-workout session days, I may include active recovery (such as a walk), extra cardio, stretching or foam rolling and other SMR techniques. However I will also recommend complete off days to promote full recovery. This ensures you stay on track toward your goals, avoid overtraining and keeps your motivation high.

​

Q: How will you track my progress?

​

A: All progress will be tracked through my training app. such as body composition measurements, girth measurements and progress photos. This will be discussed in more detail during your onboarding process.
