Costs, options and what affects them

Pay-As-You-Go vs Committing to a Block

Pay-as-you-go means booking single sessions with no commitment but the highest per-session price. Committing to a block lowers that price and locks in your slots, but ties up cash and a validity window. The right choice depends on how certain you are and how much flexibility you value.

Two honest ways to pay for training, and neither is a trap. Pay-as-you-go means you book one session at a time, pay the full single-session rate, and owe nothing beyond it. Committing to a block means you buy several sessions together at a lower per-session price, in exchange for tying up some cash and using them within a fair window. Both are legitimate; they suit different people and moments.

The decision is really about certainty and flexibility versus price. If you know you want to train consistently, a block saves money and cements your habit. If you are testing the water, travelling soon, or your schedule is chaotic, pay-as-you-go keeps you free at a small premium. Below are the honest trade-offs so you can pick without feeling pushed toward the bigger sale.

Pay-as-you-go: pros and cons

  • Pro: total flexibility, no commitment, stop any time
  • Pro: ideal for testing us or an unpredictable schedule
  • Con: the highest price per session
  • Con: harder to schedule regular slots, so progress can stall

Committing to a block: pros and cons

  • Pro: a lower per-session price than pay-as-you-go
  • Pro: locked-in slots and a planned, progressive programme
  • Con: ties up cash up front and has a validity window
  • Con: less flexibility if your life is genuinely unpredictable

How to choose honestly

Ask yourself one question: are you confident you will train consistently for the next couple of months? If yes, a block is cheaper and better for results. If you truly do not know, start pay-as-you-go for a session or two, then commit once you are sure. Do not buy a block to save money if you are not certain you will use it.

A low-risk path to decide

  1. Start with one or two pay-as-you-go sessions
  2. See if the coaching and habit are working for you
  3. If you are consistent and keen, price up a block
  4. We credit sensibly from your pay-as-you-go sessions
  5. Commit only when you are genuinely sure it fits

Frequently Asked Questions

Is pay-as-you-go a rip-off because it costs more?+

No. You pay a small premium for total flexibility and zero commitment, which is fair. It is the right choice when you are unsure or your schedule is chaotic. A block is cheaper only if you will actually use it.

Will you pressure me into a block?+

No. We would rather you pay-as-you-go and stay happy than buy a block you resent. If you are unsure, we will suggest starting flexibly and committing later, only when you are ready.

Can I switch from pay-as-you-go to a block later?+

Yes, and many do. Once you know you are consistent, moving to a block lowers your rate. We credit your recent pay-as-you-go sessions sensibly so you are not penalised for testing first.

What if I commit to a block then my life changes?+

Our blocks have a fair validity window and we pause for genuine reasons like travel, illness or Ramadan. We would rather flex with you than have you lose sessions. We explain the policy clearly before you buy.

Strength Baseline Test

A strength baseline test measures how much you can safely handle at the start, using controlled reps, not one-rep maxes. It gives us a fair number to progress from, highlights left-right imbalances, and keeps early training safe. It is a fitness marker, not an injury diagnosis.

How Often Should I Train?

For Many people, two personal training sessions a week is the sweet spot, enough to progress steadily while recovering well, with simple homework in between. The right number depends on your goal, your recovery and your schedule, which is why we set it after your assessment.

Balance Assessment

A balance assessment measures how steady you are on your feet, standing, shifting weight, single-leg holds. It is a fitness screen, not a neurological diagnosis. It tells us how much stability to build before loading balance-heavy exercises, and it matters most for older adults and anyone who feels unsteady.
