Frequently asked questions

Do I need a gym membership for coaching?
No, whether you choose in-person or online coaching, we can adapt to your available environment and equipment. Many of our online clients use home gyms or condo gyms.

Can you provide specific meal plans?
While we don’t offer meal plans, our nutrition guidance covers calories, macro nutrients, meal timing, and healthy food choices to support your fitness goals.

Which coaching option is best for me?
The best plan depends on your goals, history, budget, and preferences. A free consultation call can help determine the most suitable approach for you. If you prefer a more hands-on coaching setup, in-person training or virtual personal training would be good choices. If you are more self-directed, remote coaching may be a better option. A consultation call to discuss your unique goals, preferences, and abilities, is the best way to choose what would work for you!
