Personal Trainer in Dún Laoghaire

45-60 minutes is standard for a full session. 30-minute sessions, usually priced at 60-70% of the hourly rate, work well for maintenance training, seniors, or a focused technique block — less well for a complete strength program.

Guaranteed weight-loss numbers, no health screening before your first workout, hard-selling supplements they profit from, pressure to prepay months of sessions, and inability to show certification or insurance. Any one of these is a reason to walk away.

Four things in writing: expiry date (12 weeks is fair for a 10-pack), freeze policy for illness or travel, refund terms for unused sessions, and whether the trainer you met actually delivers every session or hands you to a junior.

A standard 60-minute one-on-one session is priced per session, with most trainers offering 5-, 10- or 20-session packages that cut the per-session price by 10-20%. Mobile trainers who come to your home usually add 10-25% for travel.

Typically EUR 30-90 per session with EUR 50 a common mid-point; Dublin sits at the upper end. Block bookings of 6-10 sessions usually shave 10-15% off the single rate.

Only when working with children or vulnerable adults through a relevant organisation — one-on-one adult training doesn't require it. If you're booking a trainer for a teenager, ask whether they've been vetted through a club or gym.
