PT costs?

Just realised how expensive mine is. I do live in the Channel Islands which is a very high cost of living area. 30 mins is £35.50 if I buy 12 sessions and 60 mins is £56.50 if I buy 12 sessions. I also have to pay my gym membership on top. I try not to think of the cost and just think of the benefits to my health, my PT provides me with the accountability that I just find I lack without them. I realise I am incredibly lucky to be able to afford to pay this during a cost of living crisis.

£57.50 p/h or £50 for a block of 10 paid in advance. They have a studio, SE London.

I use a PT through Simply Gym in S Wales - £250 for 10 sessions I train 3 times a week but only see the PT once a week. I hav only recently started strength training so wanted to be sure which exercises I needed and how to make sure I was doing them properly.

£35 where I used to live (70 miles outside London). My son is just starting out and he is charging £20/hour but at a gym with use of equipment there. The £35/hour was just with what she could cart around in her van and most PTs that go to your home expect you to have a certain amount of equipment (dumbbells/kettlebells etc).

I've been seeing my PT for years and years, so he may be doing me a discount, but not sure. He has his own gym, and I block book 10 sessions for £330. I now tend to go fortnightly (sometimes ramp it up to weekly before a holiday 😁). He also used to do a circuits class weekly, but he stopped that in Covid and never went back, so I do a different boot camp class twice a week now when I can.

I find spreading out my sessions is fine, the sessions themselves keep me accountable in between, but inevitably, I see much better fitness when I go more frequently.

I started off weekly & gradually stretched the PT sessions out as I got more confident.
For me, having PT sessions every 3 weeks or so while following her plan in between means that I feel held accountable, and that she’s able to see how I’m doing & update the plan accordingly. Monthly would also work fine.

My plan has 3 workouts on it which I rotate between, and I move to heavier weights when I feel ready.

I’d be looking at £39 per hour if I booked 5 sessions.

Is once per month worth it? That’s what I feel I can afford. I’d want a plan (progressing each month ideally) specific to my needs and a full run though to check form. Maybe weekly for the first month then monthly?

I don't get my nails done, get injectables and get cheap haircuts so it's my main indulgence for myself and it's really changed my body but also been great for my mental health. Worth every penny.

Snap. I told mine what I wanted to achieve & she’s brilliant.

37.50 a week in east anglia. For that I get a 30-40mins session at her house weekly one on one ( mixture of weights and bodyweight) and 4 x20minute group online sessions ( mainly with dumbells/ some cardio). I don't go to gym but have dumbells/ barbell at home to use.
She is also great at suggesting other sessions to do by myself in the week.

Mine’s £35 per hour & £30 if I block book, out of a gym in South-West London. She did me an exercise plan and I have a session with her once or twice a month, the rest of the time I work out by myself.

Yes I had a PT who charged £30 a session if I paid 10 sessions in a block. She stopped being a PT to retrain as a teacher, and I got a shock when I looked around and people were asking £60 for online sessions!

Clearly she undercharged.

I recently found an outdoor group PT session which is £8 a session.

I pay £152 a month for my PT sessions - one face to face PT session a week. I do 2 gym sessions a week (one with PT and one myself). Access to fitness app to see my workout details and progress and food tracking app (similar to My Fitness Pal).
Have worked it out as about £35 per session (1 hour)

£25/hr in a private gym, north west.

£45 in Surrey

£55 at the local Nuffield Health. I find that excessive, though I get how they don’t actually make that much overall.

That should say £175

I used to pay £174 for 5 x 1hr sessions in the south east but it all depends on the PT as they set their own prices. Another I know charges £50 per 1 hour session.

That sounds awesome. I have a spin bike crammed into my home office / laundry drying room and that's about all I can fit 😂

I have a gym at home. I don't have a smiths machine but I have a squat rack and pretty full set up

I paid £30 ph but with discount for block booking. So ten sessions for £275. In the south west, working out of his gym.

I prefer to do it within a gym environment for the fact he wouldn't be able to lug the Smith machine and the squat rack to my house!

I think it also depends if you’re hiring one through a gym you’re already a member of or if you go to an independent person who runs their own business as a PT. I think it’s £35 an hour at my gym but that’s obviously with the gym giving them the use of their facilities.

I pay £100 per month. She meets with me in person for one hour once per month to review form and discuss any problems. Then she writes the program out for the following month and if there are any queries she answers those by email.

I also attend a group training session one time per month with the same coach, which I pay for separately. I pay for my gym membership separately from my coaching. I don’t train at her gym except when I am there for my 1:1 or for the group training session.

I need someone to set out what to do. I don’t need someone standing over me telling me what to do in the moment - if I needed that I think I would pick classes because that many hours of 1:1 coaching would be out of my price range.

I do a strength sport and my coach is a strength coach. The coaching is an investment, but we get results and it is good for my mental health so I am still going.

Yes I guess if they are coming to your house thats an additional cost to factor in. The one I see doesn't travel, he just works out of an independent gym and I go to him.
