One-on-one coaching at Olympia Performance in West Island Montreal

Private and semi-private personal training at Olympia Performance pairs you with an expert coach inside our 24/7 West Island facility.

What is private and semi-private personal training at Olympia?

Private personal training is one coach to one client; semi-private is one coach training two clients on a synchronized program. Both formats give you direct programming, hands-on technique correction, and accountability — without the noise of a generic class.

You train inside our specialized multi-purpose performance centre at 16869 Hymus, with the floor space and equipment to support strength, power, conditioning, and rehab work in the same session. Your coach owns the plan; you own the effort.

Which training format is right for me?

Choose the format that matches the attention you need and the budget you have. Both formats are coached by the same expert team and run in the same 24/7 facility.

Private (1:1)

One coach, one client, full attention. Best for fastest progress, complex goals, return-from-injury, sport-specific prep, or clients who want every rep watched. Programming, demos, and load adjustments are made live, in the moment.

  • Full coach attention every minute
  • Programming written for your goal and schedule
  • Real-time technique correction
  • Best for fastest results and complex cases

Semi-Private (2:1)

One coach, two clients on synchronized programs. Train with a friend, partner, or family member and split the cost without losing coach contact. Ideal for accountability, shared goals, and athletes who push harder with someone next to them.

  • Lower per-session cost than private
  • Built-in accountability partner
  • Same expert coaches, same facility
  • Programs synchronized to both clients

Who is private & semi-private training built for?

Olympia coaches train clients from youth all the way to ninety years old, with the same standard of programming. Private and semi-private sessions are the right entry point if you want a coach owning the details rather than figuring it out on the gym floor.

Competitive & high-performance athletes

In-season and off-season blocks for bodybuilders, powerlifters, HYROX racers, endurance athletes, and team-sport players. Programs respect the demands of your sport, not a generic template.

Weekend warriors

You train hard around a real job and a real life. Sessions are designed so you walk in, follow the plan, and leave with a clear next step — every visit moves you forward.

First-timers and re-starters

If you have never trained before, or you are coming back after years away, a coach removes the guesswork. We teach the lifts, scale the loads, and protect what matters: your joints, your confidence, your consistency.

Rehab and post-injury rebuilds

Returning from injury or chronic pain takes patient programming. Our coaches collaborate with your therapist or doctor where appropriate and progress load only when movement quality earns it.

How does the coaching process work?

Every private and semi-private engagement follows the same simple arc: assess, program, coach, progress.

  1. Free tour and intake. Visit 16869 Hymus, see the facility, and tell us your goal, your history, and your weekly availability.
  2. Assessment. A movement, strength, and conditioning baseline so the program is honest about where you are right now.
  3. Programming. A written plan tied to your goal — strength, hypertrophy, body composition, sport performance, HYROX prep, or rehab — and your real schedule.
  4. Coached sessions. 1:1 or 2:1 on the floor, with technique correction, load progression, and conditioning work integrated.
  5. Reassess and progress. Numbers and movement get retested. The plan updates. You keep moving forward.

What do I get access to as a personal training client?

Your sessions happen inside the same specialized multi-purpose facility used by every Olympia member — and the equipment is part of the program.

  • Top-of-the-line strength and conditioning equipment
  • Expansive floor space — no zig-zagging between people and racks
  • Sleds, rowers, runners, and conditioning gear for HYROX-style work
  • Coaches with 25+ years as fitness professionals on the floor
  • 24/7 facility access via electronic key fob for members who pair training with a membership

Frequently asked questions about private & semi-private training

What is the difference between private and semi-private personal training?

Private training is one coach with one client — full attention, fully personalized programming. Semi-private is one coach with two clients on synchronized programs, which lowers the per-session cost while keeping expert coaching. Both run inside the same Olympia Performance facility with the same coaches.

Do I need experience to start personal training at Olympia?

No. Our coaches train clients from first-timers through national-level athletes, and from youth to ninety years old. If you have never lifted before, the first sessions are about teaching movement and building a base. Programs scale to your level, not the other way around.

How often should I train with a coach to see results?

Most private and semi-private clients train two to three sessions per week, paired with one or two solo sessions on the 24/7 floor. That cadence is usually enough to drive real strength, conditioning, or body-composition change while staying sustainable around work and family life.

Can I bring a partner or friend for semi-private sessions?

Yes — semi-private sessions are designed for that. You and your partner are programmed together with synchronized work, so you push each other instead of waiting around. It is one of the most popular formats for couples, siblings, and training partners with similar goals.
