Project Y Training

Two people. Same session. Same coach.

But they might need two very different things from their training that day.

One person might be ready to push. Another might need to dial things back, clean up their technique or make a change to an exercise.

And next session? That could be completely different again.

That’s why we coach the person in front of us.

We look at how you’re moving, what you’re working towards and what you need from that session.

Because at Project Y, the coaching happens around the person, not the programme.

“I’m 74.”

Sometimes that’s all you need to hear.

If you’ve been thinking about starting strength training but feel like you’ve left it too late, listen to the people who’ve already walked through the door.

You don’t need to be the youngest person in the gym. You don’t need to know what you’re doing before you arrive.

You need somewhere you feel comfortable starting, with people around you who want to see you do well.

As our members put it...

“You’re never too old to start lifting.”

And they would know. 👊🏻

If age has been the thing holding you back, maybe it’s time to see what you’re capable of.

One size doesn’t fit all when it comes to training.

Anna and Sue were hip thrusting for the first time in this block, so we started them unloaded. They learned the movement, got comfortable with it, and then we gradually added weight.

At the same time, other members were using a barbell because they’d already spent time building up the movement.

They’re training in the same session, but that doesn’t mean they all need to be doing the exact same thing.

Some people need more weight. Some need less. Some need time to learn the movement first. Some need a movement that suits them better.

That’s where the coaching comes in.

At Project Y, we meet you where you’re at and help you progress from there, rather than expecting you to fit into a one-size-fits-all programme.

If you’ve been putting off getting fitter because gyms have never felt like your thing, you’re not alone.

Maybe you’re worried you won’t know what to do. Or that everyone else will be fitter than you.

That’s exactly why the right place to start matters.

Somewhere you can begin at your level, with a coach who knows your name, knows what you can do and helps you get a little stronger each time you come in.

You haven’t left it too late.

You can start from where you are today.

Community gets talked about by pretty much every gym.

For us, it means having people around you who expect you to show up, give your best and do your bit for the group. 👥

Nobody here expects you to be the fittest person in the room. You don’t have to compete with anyone either.

But there is a standard.

Turn up on time. Give your best effort. Be coachable. Treat the people around you with respect. 🤝

And on the days when you’re struggling, there’ll be people here who pick you up and help you get through the session.

You do the same for them when they need it.

Because quitting on a training plan is easy.

Quitting on people who are expecting you to walk through the door is a lot harder.

That accountability is a big part of why people stick with Project Y.

What do our members value most about coaching at Project Y?

“I don’t have to think.”

And we get why.

You turn up and your session is ready. You know what you’re doing, and there’s a coach there to make small corrections, answer questions and adapt things when you need it.

Got an injury? We work around it.

Struggling with something? We change it.

Not sure if you’re doing it right? We’re there.

As one of our members put it:

“You just come in and do what you have to do. Work hard and get it done.”

Good coaching takes away the guesswork.

You turn up, train and get stronger. We’ll take care of the rest.

And yes, there’ll probably be a few laughs along the way 😅

If that sounds like the kind of gym you’ve been looking for, drop us a message and come see what Project Y is all about.

You build it up in your head before you ever walk through the door.

Everyone will be fitter than me.
Everyone will know what they’re doing.
Everyone will be watching me.
I’m going to feel completely out of place.

Then you actually walk in…

And realise everyone’s just normal.

Different ages. Different abilities. Different starting points.

People getting coached, working hard, having a laugh and occasionally having absolutely no idea what exercise they’re supposed to be doing next 😂

So if worrying about being judged is one of the things stopping you from walking through the door…

We might just be your kind of place.
