Virtual PT

Do You live outside of Christchurch? Or outside of New Zealand? Do You fancy having a personal training session in your home or back yard as well as learning how to shop, cook and eat well? Then the Virtual PT Session is for You!

This is the online (Skype, FaceTime or iChat) version of personal training. I will come into Your home via Your computer screen and assess Your health and nutrition, take You through a full body workout, and advise You on healthy eating for You and Your family. Each session is designed to cover a workout as well as a nutrition consultation, to ensure that You are getting the most out of Your time with me. I will also email You any programmes, templates, food diaries and recipes necessary to kick-start Your new lifestyle. You are also welcome to ask me any questions by email before and after Your sessions.

*Please note: the Virtual PT is not the same as the Trinity Health online coaching program for nutrition for weight loss – it is an experiential service whereby You will learn how to conduct safe and effective exercises in Your home and garden (or gym, as most exercises taught can be transferred to the gym environment) that are specific to Your fitness goals. For in-depth nutrition advice on how to achieve permanent weight loss and ongoing wellbeing, my cookbook, shown to the right of this page or in the About OXYGEN services tab, and the 12-week online coaching program are for You. Although separate courses one thing is for sure – when used in conjunction, the Virtual PT sessions and the online food education will enhance and help to speed up Your weight loss efforts, so get on it today!

Session times can be changed up to 12 hours before the start of Your original booking (simply go to Your Ezybook booking again and make the changes) and these will not incur a fee if re-booked within 7 days.

Training sessions can be as flexible as You wish. If You have a specific set of exercise equipment You want me to take You through, have it with You! If You have specific dietary requirements, email me the details in advance so that we can discuss this during Your consultation. If You have family members or friends who would benefit from being there during Your scheduled workout or nutrition assessment then share the fee with them and do it as a team! If you need stress-management and “me-time” advice, cooking and snack-making tips, or are out in the grocery store and can’t decide between two different jars of tomato sauce then call me up (if You have a smart phone with the Viber application, international phone calls and texts are free without the need for wifi, and with WhatsApp, text messaging is free without the need for wifi) – I am Your trainer at Your fingertips!
