Small group training is extremely effective!

The Power of Small Group Training at Fit Augusta

Have you tried a group training class before and felt lost? I’ve been there. You feel like everyone in the group is too advanced for you and you’re not even noticed.

Maybe you’ve been at a gym that the classes are so big that the coach has a microphone. I’ve also seen this problem at big box gyms – where there are lots of people but no real personal connections. Also, progress is difficult to measure and sustain. You keep weighing yourself and wonder if you’re really making any improvements, and if so, unsure if they will last. With our limited class sizes, semi-private training options, and obsession over coaching, we set the standard for group training.

We’ve found over the years that large groups are not effective for growth. Early on, we had to limit class sizes because of our space. When we added more space, we realized that we had something special, so kept the same class limits. Since then, we’ve added semi-private training, which delivers results even better by marrying the best of both worlds. Research supports our observations for both small group classes (capped at 10 or 12) and semi-private training (capped at 4). The smaller the class, the better results you achieve.

At Fit Augusta, you don’t have an instructor shouting through a headset at a bunch of strangers. Instead, you get real coaching cues, real-time corrections, and real accountability from a professional who learns your name, your goals, and your limits from day one.

How Fit Augusta’s Small Group Training Delivers Results
  • Personalized coaching – When the size of the group is small, your coach can deliver personal training type coaching without the personal training price tag. With small group training, we can fine tune your movement on the spot.
  • Progress tracking – Tracking your progress is part of our culture. We track every workout and provide opportunities for you to test your progress along the way so that we can celebrate your results. Hit a new personal record? Ring the bell. Set a milestone on your journey? We will celebrate with you. Reach a goal? We’ll cover the bright spots of your journey in your goal review.
  • Community energy without chaos – Small group training allows you to feed off of the enthusiasm of others while getting individualized feedback the entire time you are on the floor.
  • Public celebration of wins – From your first unassisted lunge to a new deadlift PR, achievements and milestones are shared so that the entire Fit Augusta family can celebrate with you.

Because our coaches teach – rather than perform – their focus stays on you. You’ll never catch a Fit Augusta coach hidden behind a microphone trying to manage 30 people at once. Instead, you’ll hear your name, get a cue specific to your technique and abilities, and feel the difference immediately. That’s the power of high-touch group training done right.

We also know that progress is personal. Most of us have the same overall goal – to feel healthier. But we have different specific goals. Some are going for their first pull-up, others are trying to lean up and lose a few pounds. That’s why we individualize our programs based on your goals. We’ve developed an inclusive group training environment where beginners feel welcomed and veterans stay challenged, all under the same roof. That dynamic sets Fit Augusta apart from gyms that rely on canned playlists and one-size-fits-all programming.
