Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about 1-to-1 personal training in Clapham with Parlanti Fitness.
How much does a personal trainer cost in Clapham?
1-to-1 personal training with Parlanti Fitness starts at £70 per session, with better rates on blocks of 5, 10 or 20 sessions. 2-to-1 and mobile training are also available at different rates. See the Pricing page for full details, or book a free trial to get a tailored recommendation based on your goals.
Do I need to be fit already to start?
No. Most clients start as complete beginners or are returning to exercise after a break. Every programme is built around your current fitness level and progresses at a pace that's challenging but sustainable.
How many sessions per week do I need?
Most clients train 1 to 3 times per week with John and follow a simple plan on the days in between. I'll agree the right frequency for your goals, schedule and recovery in your free trial session.
What's included in the free trial?
The free trial is a full 1-to-1 session with John: a movement and goals assessment, a real training session so you can feel what coaching is like, and a clear plan for what comes next. No commitment required.
Where do sessions take place?
Sessions are held in and around Clapham, at a gym and outdoor locations depending on your programme and preference. Exact locations are confirmed when you book your free trial.
Is nutrition guidance included?
Yes. Every client gets practical nutrition guidance alongside their training plan, focused on sustainable habits rather than restrictive diets, so results last beyond the programme.
How long until I see results?
Most clients notice improvements in energy and strength within the first 2 to 3 weeks, with visible fat loss and body composition changes typically appearing from around week 6 to 8, depending on starting point and consistency.
Can I still train with an injury or health condition?
In most cases, yes. John works with clients managing joint issues, past injuries and other health considerations, adapting programming around any medical guidance you've been given. Mention any conditions when you book your free trial.
What's your cancellation policy?
Sessions can be moved or cancelled with at least 24 hours' notice at no charge. Cancellations inside 24 hours may be charged in full. Full details are confirmed when you sign up.
What should I wear or bring to a session?
Comfortable training clothes and trainers you can move freely in, plus a water bottle. If your session is outdoors, dress for the weather; everything else is provided.
