Getting Started

Getting Started and Money Back Guarantee

The first step is to meet us for a chat at the studio. There is no obligation to take things any further as we know only if you feel happy and at ease will you want to train with us. After your chat it’s entirely up to you if you would like to book any sessions – we don’t chase you. You’ll only be successful if you feel confident in us and committed to helping yourself.

We also need to assess if we can help you. We don’t just take on anyone who can walk with a credit card! We are looking for people who are committed to change and ready to try the successful methods we’ve devised that achieve your goals. You are our walking advertisements so we are looking for people who are willing, no matter what your current fitness level, to live a healthier, more active life. Remember we’re so confident we can help that we take the entire risk of your first 3 months on ourselves. If you don’t see, feel and measure the results after 3 months you GET YOUR MONEY BACK!

Based on your consultation we will suggest a programme of Personal Training, Pilates or both and prescribe an ideal frequency and duration. Then we’ll tailor an ideal programme to achieve your goals.

When you book your sessions we suggest a comprehensive Health Appraisal. We start with a lifestyle consultation, assess resting parameters such as heart rate, blood pressure, anthropometry (inclusive of stature, mass, circumferences, BMI, body fat %, TBW%), aerobic fitness, muscular strength and endurance, cholesterol, glucose levels and coronary risk assessment.

We also suggest having a Postural Analysis which involves an assessment of posture type, range of movement, balance and core function tests and advice given on day to day changes to help attain optimum posture.

With this information you are not only guaranteed the targets we set are achievable and realistic, you know that the exercise programme will be as safe as possible as we know comprehensively where you’re starting from and what to do to get to your goals.

Regular checks are made so you can see your progress as well as feel it. We promise realistic results but also that what you can achieve is amazing with the correct support and information on how to do it!

"I started training with Jon when I weighed 14 stone and was not very fit. I would not have dreamt of going to an ordinary gym. Apart from anything else you are never going to slip into bad habits (no point in doing exercise incorrectly and damaging yourself). Also with help and encouragement you get the best out of the exercise and probably do it better and longer than if you were on your own. With Jon's help and support I have gradually lost over 3 stones, and am still losing. I am also much fitter. I happily chose the stairs over escalators these days and when I squat down on the floor to sort something out I can get up easily. The training sessions are varied, fun and never boring. Jon also advises on food and drink. This combination has helped me not only lose weight but, unlike previous lone attempts, keep on that downward trend. I am not on a diet that I am waiting to finish but one with which I am happy to live. I can highly recommend Jon Wray, a true professional."
