If you’re looking for a personal trainer in Brisbane, one of the first questions you’ll probably ask is: how much does personal training actually cost?

The answer varies depending on the trainer, location, session type and level of individual attention you’re looking for. But price isn’t the only thing worth comparing. What you’re actually getting for that money matters just as much.

What does personal training cost?

At Recharged Personal Training in Virginia, 1-on-1 personal training is $80 per session.

For people who want personalised coaching but would prefer to keep the cost lower, small-group personal training is $45 per person, with groups of two or three people training with one trainer.

That means you can choose the level of individual attention and investment that makes sense for you.

What are you paying for?

A personal trainer isn’t simply someone counting repetitions while you lift weights.

Good personal training should give you:

  • A structured workout rather than having to decide what to do
  • Coaching on technique and movement
  • Training that is appropriate for your current ability
  • Someone keeping you accountable
  • Progression as your fitness and strength improve
  • An environment where you can train without feeling lost or intimidated

That’s particularly useful if you’ve tried joining a gym before, only to find yourself wondering what to do once you walk through the doors.

Is $80 a session worth it?

That depends on what you want from your training.

If you’re happy designing your own workouts, motivating yourself and keeping track of your progress, a standard gym membership may be enough.

But if you value expert guidance, accountability and a structured approach, personal training can offer considerably more than access to equipment.

The other option is small-group training. At Recharged, you still train with a qualified trainer and receive personalised guidance, but share the session with one or two other people.
