ARC Instructors are available to demonstrate how to use our gym equipment and to provide expert advice. With fixed slots every day of the week and at various times, we should be able to accommodate you. If you wish you have both an induction and a fitness programme, we recommend having an induction first as both cannot be done at the same appointment.

Appointments for inductions or fitness programmes can only be made in-person at the ARC reception desk and are only available to those with a gold membership.

Induction

Suited to those who are new to the gym environment or those who need a refresher.

Meet with one of our qualified and experienced instructors who will give you a tour of the facility whilst showing you how to safely and effectively use all of our cardiovascular, strength and resistance gym equipment.

An induction lasts approximately 45 minutes and will typically be one-on-one with an instructor. Please come to the ARC reception desk five minutes before your appointment and make sure to wear suitable gym clothing.

During the induction, you are welcome to ask the instructor questions.

Fitness programme

If you know what you want to achieve, such as weight loss or greater flexibility, but you are not sure of the best or a varied way to do this, then a fitness programme is what you need.

A fitness programme appointment will typically last up to 30 minutes and, unlike inductions, you do not need to wear suitable gym clothing.

During the one-on-one appointment with the instructor, you can discuss any pre-existing medical conditions and previous or current injuries, as these are relevant factors when creating the overall programme.

You can then discuss what you want to achieve and a realistic time frame for this. At the end of the appointment you may be given some suitable exercises in the meantime but the fitness programme itself, which will be in written form and will likely contain easy-to-follow diagrams, will be emailed to you.

Your fitness programme can be reviewed by an instructor and appropriate changes made if required.
