A common misconception that I often hear when speaking to new clients or prospects is the belief that a certain level of fitness is required to start personal training. I want to clarify that regardless of where you currently stand on your fitness journey – whether you're a complete beginner, haven't trained in 20 years, or are a regular gym-goer looking to advance – the perfect time to start is now.
There is absolutely no prerequisite fitness level required to begin training. In fact, if you feel too out of shape to start training, you're likely one of the best candidates for personal training.
Personal training or coaching serves as a valuable tool to help you progress much faster than you might be able to on your own. Similar to consulting or mentorship in business, coaching can save you a lot of time and headache on your fitness journey.
At Integra, our goal with a new client is never to crush you in your training sessions, especially if you're a beginner. Instead, we aim to set you up with plenty of early wins to help you build confidence in the gym. The program we design specifically for you will meet you where you're currently at with your fitness and is intended to establish a foundation so that more challenging training can be implemented later on.
We often showcase our clients' achievements on our social media platforms, highlighting some truly remarkable feats in the gym. However, it's important to remember that what you see online typically represents years of coaching and training to reach that level of performance.
If you're someone who feels too out of shape to start training, I want you to know that you're in the perfect position to begin now.
