Personal training

One on one and small group coaching, in person or online.

Short answer

Personal training is not a regulated profession in Canada, so certifications vary widely. Ask which certification a trainer holds, how they would adapt sessions to your experience, and whether they offer a trial session.

Personal training appointment

Common personal training services

  • One on one training
  • Small group and partner training
  • Online coaching
  • Strength and conditioning
  • Training for beginners and older adults

What to expect

A first session often includes a conversation about your goals, schedule and any limitations.

Good trainers explain why each exercise is in your plan and adjust as you go.

Progress is gradual. Be cautious of anyone promising dramatic results in a few weeks.

How to choose a professional

  • Ask which organization issued their certification and whether it is current.
  • Ask whether they carry liability insurance.
  • Compare package terms, including what happens to unused sessions.
