Frequently Asked Questions

Thinking About Hiring a Personal Trainer in Newcastle?

You are not alone. Most people who consider personal training have plenty of questions about costs, timescales, qualifications, and whether it is the right choice for them.

Here are the answers to the questions we hear most often at Newcastle Personal Trainer.

General Personal Training Questions

What does a personal trainer do?

A personal trainer designs and delivers tailored fitness programmes to help you reach your goals safely and effectively. This might involve strength training, weight loss coaching, nutritional support, and accountability to keep you on track.

Is personal training suitable for beginners?

Absolutely. Many of our clients start with no gym experience at all. Your programme is adapted to your fitness level, so you never feel overwhelmed.

What types of training do you offer?

We provide one-on-one coaching, small group training, and online programmes. Our services cover weight loss, strength and toning, fitness for confidence, and long-term habit building.

How is personal training right for me?

If you have tried to reach your goals on your own but struggled with consistency or results, personal training gives you the support and structure to succeed.

Do I need to be fit before starting?

No. You start from where you are. Every session is tailored to your current ability, and we help you progress step by step.

Costs and Investment

How much does personal training cost?

Prices vary depending on the type of coaching:

  • One-to-one personal training: From £30–£50 per session, depending on package.
  • Online training: From £100–£200 per month for full programme support.
  • Small group training: Lower cost per person while still providing professional coaching.

What factors affect the cost?

Session frequency, package length, and whether you choose in-person or online coaching. Longer packages often offer better value.

Is personal training worth the investment?

Yes. Our clients regularly report improved confidence, better health, increased energy, and long-term results that are far more effective than going it alone.

Can I spread the cost?

Yes. We offer flexible payment options and packages to suit different budgets.

Timescales and Progress

How long before I see results?

It depends on your starting point, consistency, and goals. Most clients begin noticing changes in energy, mood, and fitness within 4–6 weeks. Visible results often come within 8–12 weeks.

How often should I train with a personal trainer?

Many clients start with two sessions per week. Others combine weekly sessions with independent workouts supported by our guidance. The key is consistency.

What if I miss a session?

Life happens. Sessions can often be rearranged with notice, and online coaching ensures you stay on track even during busy weeks.

Do I need to commit long-term?

You can start with a short package to see how you get on. Most clients choose to continue once they see the benefits.

Nutrition and Lifestyle

Do you provide meal plans?

We provide practical nutrition guidance tailored to your lifestyle. Instead of strict diets, we focus on realistic changes that support your goals and fit into your routine.

Can I still enjoy meals out or social events?

Yes. Our philosophy is balance, not restriction. You do not need to cut out everything you enjoy to see results.

Will you track my progress?

Yes. We regularly review your progress through measurements, fitness testing, or goal check-ins. Tracking helps keep you motivated and ensures you stay on course.

Training Experience

What happens in a session?

Each session is structured to fit your goals. A typical session includes a warm-up, targeted exercises, and a cool-down. Sessions are challenging but always achievable.

Will I need equipment?

For gym-based sessions, we provide access to equipment. For online training, workouts can be adapted to use little or no equipment.

Can you help with injuries or health conditions?

Yes, where appropriate. We adapt sessions to suit your needs and liaise with healthcare professionals if required.
