Among the many services the Campus Recreation Center (CRC) has to offer, personal training is one of the most distinctive and personalized programs available. The CRC offers individual, buddy, and group training for students, staff, faculty, and alumni. Our training services allow for a more personalized fitness experience as compared to G.I.T. FIT classes, which are themed exercise classes offered weekly to a large group.

The CRC has many trainers that offer individual, buddy, and group training. These trainers have the flexibility to meet with clients based on the participant’s availability. Students can buy training packages ranging from two to ten sessions, depending on their needs and goals. A complimentary fitness assessment is included in the purchase of fitness sessions and includes strength, flexibility, body composition, endurance, and polar body age testing.

Personal training is our most personalized fitness package that typically includes a one-on-one session with a trainer on a weekly basis. Personal training is a good choice for any level of exerciser, from those who need motivation and guidance to start working out, to advanced exercisers looking to reach a specific goal. Personal training is offered in two-, six-, or ten-session packages that range from $19 to $38 per session. Participants are encouraged to meet with the personal trainer on their own schedules so that exercise can be part of a regular, convenient routine. While some prefer to meet with a trainer for every workout session, others might only need to meet with a trainer to be motivated or when they reach a plateau with their current workout program.

Buddy training pairs two people with one trainer. It allows for personal time with a trainer and the opportunity to train with a friend to provide extra motivation. Some students use buddy training to train for events or to add a competitive edge to their workout. Buddy training is offered in two-, six-, or ten-session packages ranging from $23-$40 per session.

Lastly, group training offers a personalized routine at a reduced cost. Groups range in size from three to six people, and students can form a group with their friends or register for a pre-set group. Group training is also tailored to each individual and provides an environment where the whole group can work out together. Group training is available in packages of six one-hour sessions, with each package costing $60 per person.

Students can register for classes at the CRC Member Services desk or by contacting Elisha Smith at (404) 385-1651 or elisha.smith@crc.gatech.edu.
