Jane / 59 / Legend
Jane is 59 and proudly known as a StrengthWorks legend. She came to us already in good health, having regularly trained 1-to-1 with a personal trainer, but felt unsure about taking the step into group training — something she’d never tried before.
The Challenge
Although Jane was used to training on her own, the idea of group sessions felt like a leap into the unknown.
She wasn’t sure whether group training would suit her, whether she’d feel comfortable, or if it would give her the same quality of coaching she was used to.
The concern wasn’t about effort — it was about whether she’d still feel supported, confident, and challenged in a group environment.
Why She Nearly Didn't Start
Like many people transitioning from 1-to-1 training, Jane questioned whether group training could really work for her.
She worried it might feel overwhelming, too fast-paced, or not tailored enough to individual needs.
The Turning Point
Once Jane started group training at StrengthWorks, her concerns quickly disappeared.
Training alongside people of different ages and abilities became a source of inspiration rather than intimidation.
The coaches ensured every session was coached properly, with clear guidance, encouragement, and attention to detail — allowing Jane to push herself safely while continuing to progress.
The Results
Since making the switch to group training, Jane has experienced:
Increased strength and fitness
Greater confidence to push herself
Consistent training she enjoys
Motivation from training alongside others
Continued progress without 1-to-1 sessions
Here’s what Jane had to say:
“I feel stronger, fitter and much more confident to push myself.
The knowledge of the coaches at StrengthWorks and the commitment they show to their members is second to none.”
What This Means for You
If you’re wondering whether group training could work for you — even if you’ve only ever trained 1-to-1 — Jane’s experience shows just how powerful the right environment can be.
With expert coaching, a supportive group, and sessions designed to adapt to everyone, group training can be motivating, effective, and genuinely enjoyable.
