Group fitness: how trainers, counselors, and coaches everywhere are harnessing its benefits

When it comes to achieving goals, they say you go further together than you can alone. As a coach, trainer, or counselor, you may have experienced the rewards of working with individual clients. However, there are several advantages to offering group training or sessions that you may not have considered. Help your customers go further with these unmissable advantages of group instruction.

Social support

Group training provides a supportive and encouraging environment that can help customers stick to their fitness goals. When clients see others working towards their similar goals, it can be a powerful motivator–whether it’s collaborative or competitive. Either way, they’re inspired to continue their own progress under your instruction. Group training also provides an opportunity for clients to socialize and make new connections, which can be especially beneficial for those who are new to the sport, camp, gym, or even working out in general. 

However, the more people under your supervisor, the harder it can be to manage. Luckily, Captyn has easy-to-use features to set up group training for small or large sets of participants. And if you’re shifting locations or objectives, worry not; Captyn shows all the important details to all of your customers on all devices.

Variety of workouts

When working with individual customers, it can be challenging to come up with new and engaging activities or workouts every session. However, in a group setting, you have the opportunity to design workouts or practices that cater to different fitness levels and goals. This can make each session more dynamic and interesting for clients, which can keep them engaged and coming back for more.

When you’ve crafted a group program you’re proud of, easily duplicate it for multiple sessions–with just one click on Captyn. 

More revenue (and time)

More customers, more money. Need we say more?

Ok fine, we will. Charge less per person than you would for individual training sessions to maximize your turnout, reaching a larger client base without sacrificing the quality of your services. You’ll also be more time-efficient! With individuals, you may need to spend time waiting for your client to arrive, setting up equipment, and discussing their progress. However, with group training, you can use that time to start warming up and getting the group ready for whatever’s to come. That means more time and more clients.

And if demand for your services really starts booming, Captyn lets you add a coach or staff member and easily assign them to programs for your customers to choose. You can also maintain and manage a waitlist if your sessions fill up, so you’ll always be at full capacity. 

Brand exposure

Finally, group training can be an excellent way to increase your brand exposure, which can be crucially important for trainers or coaches. By training multiple clients at once, you have the opportunity to showcase your expertise and build a reputation for delivering high-quality services. Additionally, clients who enjoy your group training sessions are more likely to recommend you to friends and family, which can help you grow your client base and increase your revenue. Coupons can be a great incentive for them to do this, and are simple to generate and dispense with Captyn. Our platform even allows you to add your logo and colors to your public pages, so you can truly stand out from the pack. 

Ultimately, group training can be a highly beneficial addition to your personal training business. It provides a supportive environment for clients, increases your revenue, allows for more variety in workouts, saves time, and can help you build your brand. And Captyn supports you in all of this! But if you’re still juggling individual customers for the time being, our platform allows you to schedule these through the platform as well. Good things happen when groups work together. Group up with Captyn today, and see for yourself!
