Small Group Personal Training

More trainers, boutique studios, and even large chain gyms offered small group (typically 10 people or less) sessions, with classes available in bootcamp, TRX, Pilates, ViPR, and more. You get the best of both worlds with these types of sessions, Matthews says: the personalized expertise and guidance of a personal trainer plus the social aspect of working alongside others (which can be much less intimidating than working one-on-one). And it’s all at a price point that is very reasonable.
