Kickstart Your Personal Training Journey
no bs. made for you. in person. online.​​​
New to strength training, or ready to find consistency with your routine? Our Kickstart package is designed to help you get comfortable in the gym, build confidence and find your stride with strength training. You'll start with a one-on-one consultation, followed by four personal training sessions with one of our coaches. We meet you where you're at and show you that you're capable of achieving your goals with some guidance. It's a great way to experience what personal training at beSTRONG is all about before committing to an ongoing package.
What to Expect
Your Initial Consultation
We'll start with a one-on-one consultation to get to know you better. We'll chat about your goals, training experience and any injuries or limitations, and take you through a movement assessment. This gives your coach a chance to understand where you're starting from and how we can best support you.
Your Four Training Sessions
You'll have four one-hour personal training sessions led by your coach. Each session includes a warm-up, a workout built on fundamental strength training principles and a cool-down. Our goal is that you learn something new, feel challenged and enjoy the session enough to be excited for the next one. Not be so sore you can't walk for the week!
No cookie-cutter workouts or expectations to keep up with anyone else. Just thoughtful, individualized coaching that meets you where you're at.

Who Kickstart Is For
Strength training isn't one-size-fits-all, and neither is our coaching. At beSTRONG, we work with people of all ages, abilities and experience levels to help build strength in a way that makes sense for your body, your goals and your life. The Kickstart package is a great fit if you are:
​
-
New to strength training and not sure where to begin
-
Coming back to training after injury, illness or a long break
-
Navigating a life transition like pregnancy, postpartum or perimenopause
-
Managing pain, hypermobility or a chronic condition
-
Training for athletic performance such as running, hiking, skiing or climbing
-
Curious about personal training and want to see what it's all about before committing to an ongoing package
-
Looking for personalized coaching and a sense of community, with training tailored to you and a supportive group of like-minded people behind you
​
You don't need to be fit to get started. That's what we're here to help with.
Gym Anxiety? We Get It.
Walking into a gym for the first time (or the first time in a long time!) can feel intimidating. Maybe you're unsure what to do, worried about using equipment incorrectly, or feel like everyone else knows what they're doing. That feeling has a name: gym anxiety. It's the nervousness, self-doubt or self-consciousness that can come with stepping into a gym, especially when you're new to training or coming back after time away. If you've ever felt anxiety at the gym, you're far from alone.
We want you to know that you don't need to be fit, confident or know your way around a gym to get started. At beSTRONG, we're all about creating a welcoming, supportive space where you can learn, ask questions and build confidence at your own pace.
How to Overcome Gym Anxiety with Kickstar
​
-
Let's chat first. Our free Meet and Greet gives you a chance to get to know us, ask questions and see if we're the right fit before stepping into the gym.
-
Start small. Four sessions over five weeks gives you time to learn, get comfortable and start building a routine without feeling overwhelmed.
-
Have a coach in your corner. You'll work one-on-one with a coach who's there to guide you, answer your questions and help you feel confident with every movement.
-
Go at your own pace. There's no pressure to lift a certain weight, keep up with anyone else or prove anything. We'll meet you where you're at and build from there.
-
Find your people. You're not just joining a gym. You're becoming part of a community of people who are showing up, working on themselves and cheering each other on.
How It Works

Book a Short
Meet and Greet

Step 2
Initial
Consultation ​
​
Your coach meets with you in person for your Kickstart consultation to dive deeper into your goals, your training history and any injuries or limitations. Your coach also takes you through a movement assessment to build a plan tailored to you.

Things To Know
Is Kickstart personal training for beginners?
Absolutely! You don't need any previous gym experience to get started. Kickstart is personal training for beginners and for anyone returning to the gym after time away. Your coach will meet you where you are and teach you proper form from day one.
What is included in the Kickstart package?
For $349 + GST, you'll get an initial consultation and four 60-minute, one-on-one personal training sessions with your beSTRONG coach. You'll have five weeks to complete your sessions.
How is Kickstart different from an ongoing personal training package?
Kickstart is our introductory package, designed to give you a feel for personal training at beSTRONG before making a longer-term commitment. It's available once per person. Our ongoing Personal Training and Hybrid Training memberships offer continued coaching support.
What happens after I finish my four Kickstart sessions?
Many clients choose to continue with one of our ongoing Personal Training or Hybrid Training memberships and become ongoing beSTRONG members. Your coach can help you choose the option that fits your goals and schedule.
Can I do the Kickstart package with a friend or partner?
You sure can! Rates for 2-on-1 training are available; ask your coach for details when you book.
What if I have an injury or health condition?
That's exactly the kind of thing we'd love to chat about during your consultation. Our coaches have experience working with a wide range of injuries, chronic conditions and movement limitations. We'll tailor your training to your needs and collaborate with your healthcare team when appropriate.
Can I do the Kickstart package while pregnant or postpartum?
Absolutely! We have coaches experienced in prenatal and postpartum strength training who can help you navigate exercise through these stages of life. We'll work with you to find an approach that feels right for your body, your goals and your stage of recovery.
Is there a group version of Kickstart?
Sometimes! We occasionally offer a small-group version of Kickstart at select locations. It's a more budget-friendly way to experience beSTRONG coaching, with the bonus of training alongside others. Group Kickstart isn't always available, so ask us about upcoming dates during your Meet and Greet.
