What A Pratt Session is Like

 Curious about Pratt but not sure what you’re walking into? 🧠

Here’s exactly what your first training session will look like.

Before this, you’ll do a Free One-on-One Starting Point Session where we talk about your goals, past injuries, and take you through a short, simple workout. That’s how we build your custom program.


1. Booking Your Session

  • We offer 58 sessions per week. 🗓️
  • You can book any time that works for you. ⏱️
  • This is not a “Monday is legs, Tuesday is cardio” class schedule. ❌
  • You get a completely customized program, and a trainer coaches you through it every time you come in. ✅
  • The schedule is built to be as convenient as possible for you. 🙂

2. Walking In

When you arrive:

  • Check in at the front desk. 
  • Put your belongings in the cubbies and get settled. 🧥

At Warren:

  • Check the whiteboard near the desk for your name, trainer, and zone.

At Hillsborough:

  • One trainer, one zone—just check in and then warm up.

3. Warm-Up ♨️

  • You’ll do 3–5 minutes on a cardio machine.
  • It’s not meant to crush you—just to get you moving so you’re physically and mentally ready.

Then you’ll head to your trainer/zone to start your workout.


4. Your Trainer & The Group

  • Your trainer has your custom program ready that was designed by our programmers after your Starting Point Session.
  • We take a maximum of six members per trainer per session so you’re getting a personal training ✅ session, NOT a big group class ❌.

There will be other people working with the same trainer—likely future friends (unless you don’t want to make any 😆). It’s important to know:

  • Nobody has the same program.
  • Exercises, weights, and timing are all based on each person’s goals and ability.
  • There’s no one to compare yourself to because everyone is on a different “page” in their program.

What your trainer does:

  • Shows you each exercise 💪
  • Tells you what to focus on
  • Coaches and corrects your form ✅✅✅
  • Moves between members, but never leaves you guessing 😵‍💫

When you finish your sets, you tell the trainer. They log your weights, reps, and notes so we can track your progress.


5. What You’ll Be Doing

We prioritize strength training and include cardio work in your plan.

We adjust your program based on:

  • Your goals
  • Your experience level
  • Any injuries or limitations 
  • Reasonable preferences (what you like/don’t like)

You might use:

  • Dumbbells and free weights 🏋️
  • Machines for all major muscle groups
  • Cables
  • Barbells and racks

Some people use a lot of equipment. Others keep it simple. Our trainers and programmers decide what makes sense for you and with you, and your program is written before you arrive, not made up on the spot.


6. Recap & Next Steps

At the end of your workout:

  • Your trainer will recap the session with you. 🧑‍🎓
  • They’ll confirm what you did and what might increase or change next time.
  • You’ll file your sheet in the front desk folders so it’s ready for your next visit. 📂
  • We’ll remind you to book your next session to stay consistent.

7. Optional Feedback

On your way out, you’ll see a QR code for feedback.

  • Scan it
  • Pick your trainer
  • Rate your session 1–10 😁
  • Add comments if you’d like

It’s anonymous, and we genuinely use it to get better.


If you’re on the fence, know this:

You won’t be thrown into a random class. ❌❌❌
You won’t be left to figure things out alone. ❌❌❌

You’ll have a trainer with you every session, coaching you through a structured, customized program built just for you. ✅✅✅
