FAQ

What makes your training sessions different?

Each session follows a proven 6-phase system that focuses on mobility, strength, fitness, and recovery — not just burning calories.
We don’t just train hard; we train smart. Every phase has a purpose, ensuring you move better, feel stronger, and stay injury-free.

What are the six phases of training?

Your session includes:

  1. Prehab – injury prevention and activation

  2. Movement Prep – dynamic warm-up

  3. Resistance Training – strength and toning

  4. Energy Systems Development – cardio and endurance work

  5. Core Training – balance and stability

  6. Regeneration – stretching and recovery
    Together, these make every workout balanced, effective, and sustainable.

Do all sessions include every phase?

Yes — each session is designed to flow through all six phases.
Depending on your goals, the focus might shift (for example, more resistance work for strength or more ESD for fat loss), but you’ll always experience a complete, structured workout.

Is this suitable for beginners?

Absolutely. Every phase is tailored to your fitness level, so you’ll always feel challenged but never overwhelmed.
We focus on proper form, gradual progress, and building confidence every step of the way.

What if I have an injury or medical condition?

Your plan is fully individualised. We start with a movement screen and adapt exercises around your needs.
The Prehab and Regeneration phases are designed specifically to keep you training safely, even if you have old injuries or mobility limitations.

Will I get results from this system?

Yes — this format is science-backed and results-proven.
By combining strength, cardio, and recovery into one seamless flow, you’ll improve energy, body composition, and performance faster than with random workouts.

How often should I train?

Most clients see great results with 2–3 sessions per week, depending on their goals and recovery.
We’ll build a plan that fits your schedule and keeps your progress consistent.

Do you offer online or in-person sessions?

Both! You can train in-studio for hands-on guidance or online for flexibility and convenience.
Either way, the same 6-phase system ensures you get professional structure and real results.
