One coach, one connected program

Your first conversation is about the person, not a package. The coach learns your goals and training history, then builds sessions that belong to the same program instead of starting over each week.

Personal training at Adapt

How you get started

Four steps from your message to your first coached session on the gym floor.

  1. Share your goal

    Tell us what you want from training, what you have done before and how much coaching you want each week.

  2. Match with a coach

    We suggest a coach whose approach fits your goal and the times that work for you.

  3. Meet on the floor

    Your first session happens in the North Sydney gym, with exercises chosen for where you are now.

  4. Agree the block

    You and your coach set the first training block and how often you will meet.

Coached sessions on the strength floor

Personal training happens in the same North Sydney gym where members train independently and where physiotherapists write rehab programs, so your coach can coordinate with the wider team when that helps your training.

Questions about starting

Send a message

How long is a personal training session?

A personal training session is usually 45 to 60 minutes. Your coach confirms the length when you arrange training.

Do I need gym experience to start?

No. Your coach starts with what you can do now and teaches the movements in your program as you go.

How do I choose a coach?

Tell us your goal and schedule in your message. We match you with a coach whose approach fits, and you can ask to train with someone specific if you already know who you want.

Can I train on my own between sessions?

Yes. Your coach can build independent work into the same program, so coached and solo sessions move in one direction.

What if I have an old injury?

Tell your coach before you start. They shape training around your current capacity, and you can book a physiotherapist at Adapt if something needs assessing first.

How do I cancel or move a session?

Contact us at least 24 hours before your session to move or cancel it with no fee. Changes inside 24 hours may be charged the full session fee.
