Working Out With Personal Guidance in De Pijp: How to Get Started at Fresh

Do you want to start working out but aren’t sure which exercises are right for you? Or are you looking to get back into fitness and would like someone to guide you? At Fresh Fitness, you can enjoy working out with personal guidance in De Pijp, Amsterdam South. With our
12-week program, you’ll receive a personalized training plan and five coaching appointments. The program is included in your membership and helps you get started step by step.

When Can Personal Fitness Coaching Help?

Maybe you’ve started working out enthusiastically before but struggled to maintain a routine. Perhaps you feel unsure about using gym equipment. Or maybe you already train regularly but wonder whether your exercises still match your goals.

That’s when having a coach by your side can make a difference. Someone who listens, explains exercises, answers your questions, and helps you find a realistic routine that fits around work, family, and other commitments.

At Fresh, your personal guidance starts with you. What do you want to achieve? What kind of exercise do you enjoy? And what do you need to keep coming back? You don’t have to be fit before joining our gym.

Your First Step: An Intake and Personalized Training Plan

Our 12-week program starts with a comprehensive intake and baseline assessment. We’ll discuss your goals, previous training experience, and physical capabilities. We’ll also look at how exercise can fit into your weekly routine.

Based on this information, we’ll create a personalized training plan. This gives you a clear starting point and helps you understand which exercises to focus on. Throughout the program, you’ll have opportunities to ask questions about your exercises and how to perform them correctly.

What Happens During the Five Coaching Appointments?

Throughout the 12-week program, you’ll have five personal appointments with a coach. During these sessions, we’ll discuss how your training is going, answer your questions, and adjust your training plan whenever necessary.

We don’t just focus on your progress, but also on how you’re experiencing your workouts. Are you managing to train regularly? Do you understand the exercises? And does your training plan still match your goals?

Between appointments, you’ll train independently using your personalized plan. You can also stay in touch with your coach through the Fresh app. This helps you better understand what you’re doing and why, while building confidence in the gym.

What’s the Difference Between This Program and Personal Training?

With our 12-week program, you receive guidance during scheduled coaching appointments and train independently between sessions. This means a coach won’t be standing next to you during every workout.

Would you prefer more one-on-one attention during your workouts? You can also choose
personal training at Fresh Fitness in De Pijp. Your personal trainer will guide you through your exercises, help improve your technique, and support you as you progress.

We Also Focus on Nutrition, Sleep, and Stress

How you feel during exercise is closely connected to your everyday lifestyle. That’s why our program also covers nutrition, sleep, and stress. Together, we’ll identify small, realistic changes that suit your situation. You don’t have to change everything at once.

Do you have a specific nutrition-related question or need additional support? As part of your membership, you can also schedule an appointment with
our dietitian.

Does the Coaching Continue After Twelve Weeks?

Yes! Even after completing the program, personal guidance remains part of your fitness journey. Every six weeks, we’ll schedule a 30-minute follow-up appointment to review your progress and adjust your training plan when needed.

Have your goals changed, or are you finding it difficult to maintain your routine? We’ll work together to find a solution. You don’t have to wait until everything is going well again before asking for support.
