personal training 4 all

about the service plans

All service plans use an individual program created and tailored especially for your needs, objectives and capacities. So you can achieve the results you want without having to think about what to do, it's all prepared for you.

You chose the level of personal direction required, that is the amount of time you want to work directly with Kym.

This direction can occur every Monday, Wednesday and Friday or as little as once every 5 weeks.

It can be organised into weekly or fortnightly blocks or sessionally based.

You can now have a regular session/s once, twice or three times a week. Or perhaps once every two, three, four or five weeks. You choose!

Now you can have the flexibility to have a personal trainer, as much or as little as you like, without the associated price tag!

Obviously the more personal direction involved, the greater the cost. Costs range from $290 per month to $85 per month, so everyone can afford and enjoy the benefits of personal training with Kym.

what are the different service plans available?

The service plans are arranged into full, block and sessionally based structures.

Full service denotes that you can work under Kym's personal direction every session (Monday, Wednesday, Friday)

Block services use a hyphen (-)

ie 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 2-4, 1-1, 1-2. 1-3, 1-4, 1-5

    the first number represents "weeks of personal direction"

    the second number represents "weeks following the program

    individually"

e.g. 2-4 would be a service plan with 2 weeks of personal direction (Monday, Wednesday, Friday), followed by 4 weeks where you'd follow your program individually.

 

Sessional services use a colon (:) or written titles

ie 1:4, 1:5, 1:7, or 2 per week, 1 every week, 1 every 2 weeks, 1 every 3 weeks, 1 every 4 weeks, 1 every 5 weeks

    the first number represents "session/s of personal direction"

    the second number represents "sessions"

    the colon should be read as "every"

e.g. 1:5 would be a service plan that provides 1 session of personal direction every 5 sessions. That is , one session with Kym, followed by 4 sessions where you'd follow your program individually.

1 every 3 weeks would be a service plan where you have 1 session of personal direction every 3 weeks. That is , one session with Kym, followed by the remainder of the 3 weeks where you'd follow your program individually.

 

 

 

what's the catch?

There is none.

"Personal Training 4 all" provides the benefits of personal training without the cost, essentially through three key factors:

1. The development of sophisticated computer software to generate periodized personal programs
2. The concept of personal direction which replaces conventional personal training sessions
3. The use of flexible Service Plans

Kym had already developed the sophisticated software to allow him to easily generate and replicate programs. This process would otherwise be a time consuming and therefore expensive process.

Kym noticed in many conventional personal training sessions that although his clients wanted him to help, motivate, direct and guide them, (providing them the detail of what to do), they didn't necessarily need him to be with them throughout the whole session, nor indeed often for many sessions.   

He therefore developed the concept of pt4all including a range of fee structures and personal direction so as to provide the benefits of personal training without the cost.

Personal direction sessions replace conventional personal training sessions. To see what you'll do in a personal direction session click on this link.

Personal direction allows Kym to guide and oversee your session and program without you having his exclusive attention.

It's not 1:1 necessarily, although at times it may be, but at most times there'll be others doing personal direction sessions simultaneously.

Personal direction allows you to "share" Kym's time, and therefore share the cost, making training with him a more economical method.

can I change my service plan?

Yes, you can change service plans, but some conditions apply.

Firstly, there needs to be a position open in the service plan you want to change to.

• That's easy to check, just have a look at what places are still available?

Secondly, you need to provide formal written notice of at least 7 days prior to the end of the current unit of your existing service plan.

• use form entitled "changing services"

        or

• e-mail, SMS these details

Thirdly you will need to receive confirmation from Kym of your formal written notice

• This will be sent by e-mail and will contain
  
  • confirmation of the changes
  • start date of your new service plan
  • details of a bridging fee due which reflects the changes for the upcoming month and replaces the monthly fee for that month
  • details your new arrangements, including your new monthly fee

Finally, you need to complete the current unit of your existing service plan.

• Service plans are arranged into units, depending on their composition

• For full service, the unit corresponds to the billing period, and is considered to be of one month's duration (4.33 weeks)

• For block services, this is done by adding together the two numbers that represent the service (personal direction and the time working individually following the program)
  • eg 2-4 service would have a unit of 6 weeks, (2+4)

• For sessional services, ( excepting "1 every 5 weeks" ) the unit corresponds to the billing period, and is considered to be of one month's duration (4.33 weeks)
  
  • For "1 every 5 weeks" the unit is 5 weeks

• The start of each unit is designated by the start of time under personal direction with Kym
• The finish of the unit is the date calculated by adding the unit length to the start of the unit.

can I suspend my service plan?

No.

You should carefully choose the length of your agreement before committing to it, taking into consideration any vacations or travel you have planned.

what if I can't complete my agreement?

Should you be unable to complete the agreement you will need to give written notice and receive confirmation of that notice.

• You will need to pay for any unit you have commenced.

• You will be due to pay a cancellation fee (within 7 days of confirmation)

• The cancellation fee represents the difference between what you have paid and what you should have paid for the term you've completed

• eg A yearly agreement is terminated after 4 months. You have therefore completed a 4 month agreement (cost $20 per month more than yearly agreement), so you would be due to pay $80, (4 X $20) as a cancellation.

• eg A six month agreement is terminated after 2 months. You have therefore completed a 2 month agreement (cost $10 per month more than the 6 month agreement), so you would be due to pay $20, (2 X $10) as a cancellation.

• The fees outlined above will be due and payable within 7 days of the confirmation of your written notice.

what is a unit?

• Service plans are arranged into units, depending on their composition

• For full service, the unit corresponds to the billing period, and is considered to be of one month's duration

• For block services, this is done by adding together the two numbers that represent the service (personal direction and the time working individually following the program)
  • eg 2-4 service would have a unit of 6 weeks, (2+4)

• For sessional services, ( excepting "1 every 5 weeks" ) the unit corresponds to the billing period, and is considered to be of one month's duration
  • For "1 every 5 weeks" the unit is 5 weeks

• The start of each unit is designated by the start of time under personal direction with Kym
• The finish of the unit is the date calculated by adding the unit length to the start of the unit.

can I combine service plans?

Yes, you can combine units from up to 5 service plans to make a unique service plan that fits your requirements perfectly.

Lets look at an example.

You've decided to commit to 6 months (26 weeks).

You'd like to start with a lot of personal direction, but feel you'd like to try a little less after a month.

Just to make sure you're completely on the right track, you'd like some more intense personal direction for another month or so before trying to complete  your agreement with some sparse sessional work.

So you choose:

1. full service for a month (counts as 4.33 weeks)
2. 1:3 for two units (8 weeks)
3. 1:1 for two months (counts as 8.67 weeks)
4. 1 session every 5 weeks for the remainder of the agreement = 5 weeks (26 - 4.33 - 8 - 8.67 weeks)

Costing is unique for each combination and can be provided by e-mail

Some conditions apply.

Firstly, there needs to be positions available in the service plans you want to use.

• That's easy to check, just have a look at what places are still available?

Secondly, you need to choose full units in the service plans you wish to use.

• Service plans are arranged into units, depending on their composition

• For full service, the unit corresponds to the billing period, and is considered to be of one month's duration (4.33 weeks)

• For block services, this is done by adding together the two numbers that represent the service (personal direction and the time working individually following the program)
  • eg 2-4 service would have a unit of 6 weeks, (2+4)

• For sessional services, ( excepting "1 every 5 weeks" ) the unit corresponds to the billing period, and is considered to be of one month's duration (4.33 weeks)
  
  • For "1 every 5 weeks" the unit is 5 weeks

• The start of each unit is designated by the start of time under personal direction with Kym
• The finish of the unit is the date calculated by adding the unit length to the start of the unit

Finally, once you've decided upon your unique service plan you will be unable to alter it during the period of the agreement.

what days can I have personal direction?

personal direction is available Monday, Wednesday and Friday

See session availabilty for times

what happens on public holidays?

All Public Holidays are recognised and as such Kym will be unavailable for personal direction sessions. However, as your program is prepared and available for you to use any time, you can follow it should you desire.

how is it different to conventional personal training?

Traditionally in personal training you "buy" the trainer's time.

You have their exclusive attention for the period of time you buy it (usually 30 or 60 minutes).

They plan and tell you what to do, they stay beside you, count your repetitions, demonstrate and correct technique, provide "motivational" encouragement and tell you "well done" at the end of each exercise or set.

It's fine if you've got plenty of money, because you pay for this. You achieve the benefits of personal training but it's expensive, with prices ranging upwards from $40 per hour.

Really, what needs to be addressed is; what am I trying to achieve and what benefits can I get from personal training?

Generally, you want results.

You want to improve the way you look and feel, your health and your ability to manage stress.

You want to see and feel a difference.

You want more energy to do the things that matter to you.

You want the guidance of an experienced professional. You want access to their expertise, experience and knowledge and attention when you need it.

You want a personalized program to get faster results, a program which is varied, safe and preferably enjoyable.

You want the motivation that comes from achieving results and having confidence in the person preparing, implementing and guiding your program.

You want accurate information and you want to understand why you are doing things.

So all that sounds great, but you just can't afford traditional personal training. It costs too much!

Training the "Personal Training 4 all" way provides the benefits of excellent traditional personal training without the cost.

In many ways it's better than conventional personal training.

Kym's experience and knowledge are excellent.

The high quality, periodized programs that he provides for you are individualized and available for you whenever and where-ever you want to workout.

The service plans include all the positive elements of great personal training.

Personal direction sessions replace traditional personal training sessions allowing it to be a far more economical method.

There are no time restrictions on your workouts, no hourly rates.

And because it takes the intensive one on one time contact out of the equation, by using personal direction instead of traditional personal training it also takes out the prohibitive cost.

So you can now afford to get the results you want.

what happens when Kym has a holiday?

Any scheduled personal direction sessions that fall due during Kym's time-off will be made up prior to his departure.

Any program update will be forwarded by e-mail when required.

For Full service patrons, their program will be downgraded to a block 2:2 or 2:3 program to cover the vacation period and the immediate period before Kym's departure:

• An associated price reduction will apply
• Your program will revert automatically to the agreed conditions upon Kym's resumption
• The period of "downgrading" will count towards fulfilling the agreed term
