Fitness assessment and program
Fully qualified staff supervise the gym floor at all times and will take you through a fitness appraisal and tailor a work out program to suit your personal needs. We cater for people of all levels of fitness, from the beginner to the elderly, more advanced clients and rehabilitation programs.
Book in a time for your one on one assessment with our qualified fitness instructor. They will develop a training program just for you. You will then receive a Program Show with our instructor to take you through the gym equipment and safety aspects.
The gym instructor will help you monitor your progress.
Continue at your own pace and change your program when it suits you. We encourage you to have your program re-assessed by our staff every 6 - 8 weeks.
