Why Hybrid Personal Training is the Future of Fitness
For a while now, you’ve had two choices:
Traditional Personal Training:
Effective,
But very expensive and often inflexible.
Online coaching:
Affordable and convenient
But lacks the real accountability
And hands-on guidance that gets results.
But what if you didn’t have to choose?
Imagine Face to Face PT at one end
And Online Personal Training at the other
Hybrid Personal Training sits right in the middle
It combines the best of both worlds
Giving you expert in-person coaching
Plus structured online support
To keep you progressing between sessions
This isn’t just another fitness trend
Hybrid training is the smarter,
More sustainable way to get results
In this blog...
I’ll break down exactly
Why hybrid personal training is the future
And why it’s the best way for you to:
Train smarter,
Stay accountable,
And finally see real progress
Ok, so lets look about the obvious problems
With Traditional 1-1 PT
The Problems with Traditional Personal Training
For years 1-1 PT has been the gold standard
And I whole heartedly agree with this!
I used to see the very best results
In the shortest time period
With my face to face clients
Not my online clients
So you'd train on the gym floor with me
3 - 4 times a week
And we'd guide you through everything
Sounds familiar right?
Gets results,
But it does come with its downfalls:
Its expensive!
Most personal trainers charge
$75-150 per session
(I used to charge $80 - $120 depending)
And thats just for one workout
Then, train with me 3 times a week every week
And you're looking at a monthly bill around
$1200 before tax!
Alienating 99.9% of the population
Who could really benefit from PT
Next up,
Personal training can be slightly limiting
You only get coached when you're at the gym
That means when you leave the gym
And in between sessions, you're on your own!
No ongoing accountability
No real support
Which can lead to a yo-yo'in affect
And finally
Us "PT's" can be quite inflexible
I would be very strict about missing sessions
And still charging for them!
Plus, i was alway very busy
So I had little,
To no flexibility in my timetable
To change clients sessions around
The result?
Many people cant access Personal Training
And quite a few quit
Not because they dont want results
But because it becomes too expensive
Or becomes too limiting
On the other end of the spectrum,
We have online personal training
So lets have a look at:
The Problems with Online-Only Coaching:
Online Personal Training is:
Flexible,
Affordable
And gives your access to expert trainers from anywhere.
But let's be honest!
Online coaching has some major flaws too!
And i know,
I started my online PT business way before Covid
Before the popularity of online PT
And these issues still persist today!
Issue #1 there is no Real accountability.
Without in person check ins
Its easy to fall off track
Sure,
Your coach might send you a check in message
But thats not the same as having someone there 1-1
Making sure you are staying consistent.
People always talk about motivation
And it comes in many different shapes and sizes
One type of motivation you cant miss
Is knowing in 4 weeks
You are going to see your coach face to face
And they are going to ask how your plan has gone
Knowing the type of results you should have got
This will keep you on track
(or at least help)
You dont get this with online.
Issue #2 is the lack of hands on guidance.
The reason why a lot of PT's are so young on online
Is because they lack the knowledge
And experience of the gym floor
Being able to que properly and see movements patterns
And being able to correct them
With online personal training,
These PT's dont have to do this.
Because they cant!
And so you dont get the guidance you need.
Watching a YouTube video
Or reading instruction on their app
Is not the same as real-time coaching.
Without a trainer correcting your form in person
You are risking making mistakes
That can slow your progress down.
And finally #3
Probably the worst one
The one we all know happens,
But somehow believe
"Not My Coach"
The one size fits all plans
Every personal trainer goes online
So they can serve more clients
(make more money)
and do less work
They write 1-5 programs
And every clients does them.
This isn't me saying this, this is just fact!
Now in their defence
The basics dont ever change
I always used to say this
Back when i was a PE teacher
Teaching basketball
Year on year out, never changes!
And the same goes here.
But every individual should have a plan
That matched these goals and lifestyle.
Lets get to the point
