What is a Personal Trainer? A personal trainer is a person who helps people exercise. The scope of practice for a personal trainer is to enhance the components of fitness for the general, healthy population. The 5 classic components of fitness are muscular strength, muscular endurance, body composition, cardiovascular endurance, and flexibility, although there are other subsets like power, skill, and speed. The general population is defined as an age range of 18 to about 50 (45 and younger for males, 55 and younger for females). The definition of healthy in this context means an absence of a disease that would affect one's ability to exercise. Anyone outside that scope of practice should be placed in a trainer's scope after a visit to the doctor to see what kind, if any, exercise they are capable of. Definition extracted from Wikipedia.

Why do I have to undertake an assessment before I can start personal training? Before we can train or treat you, it is an industry requirement that you undergo at a minimum a basic health and fitness assessment. This ensures you are not at risk during your personal training or therapy session. Should a health issue be discovered during the assessment then we may require a clearance from your doctor or specialist before you can commence personal training or therapy.

What is dluxe health & fitness cancellation policy? As most Personal Trainers, Therapists or Treating Professionals are employed on a casual basis with their income derived from the time of each session (ie. they only get paid for the time they train or treat you), it is therefore imperative that we have a solid cancellation policy in order to protect the financial health of our team.
dluxe health & fitness has developed a strictly enforced cancellation policy where if you do not cancel within our terms your session time will be forfeited and your personal trainer, therapist or treating professional will be paid. The cancellation time period has been deemed fair by both our team and existing clients as it allows the personal trainer, therapist or treating professional the opportunity to schedule in another client at that time. dluxe health & fitness cancellations must be made as follows:
| Your training appointment time between: |
Must be cancelled before: |
| 6am and 12pm (noon) |
