What does the Activate and Focus programme offer?
Activate
In your first hour-long, one-to-one session, our team will take you through some short assessments using our EGYM Fitness Hub and some of the gym equipment. This will provide you with your results, which include biometrics such as flexibility and strength, in the form of a ‘BioAge’ - an easy-to-understand snapshot of where you’re starting from in your fitness journey. This will give you a solid foundation to track your progress.
Focus
In your one-to-one Focus session, our Fitness Instructor will check-in to see how you are getting on with your current plan and gain feedback on what you’re enjoying, how your programme is fitting in with your day-to-day lifestyle and what you might want to add to your routine to keep your workouts fresh.

What is EGYM?
Our Active and Focus sessions are powered by EGYM technology. The innovative and intelligent EGYM Fitness Hub provides insight into your key body metrics such as metabolic rate, flexibility, strength and cardio - all allowing for better understanding of where you are on your fitness journey. Teamed with the Tanita scales, EGYM Fitness Hub allows you to visualise your body data to understand how to make and maintain progress.
During your session, we will get you set up on the Places Fitness app where you can fully benefit from the support EGYM technology can offer:
- View your personalised programme
- Set your own goals
- Set your own workout or weekly/monthly programme
- Manually track workouts (this will be visible for your trainer to see)
- Connect to wearable technology (e.g. Apple watch, Apple Health, Fitbit, Garmin)
- Change metrics (e.g. lbs to kg)
What are the benefits of using EGYM to support my fitness journey?
There are many reasons why our Activate and Focus programmes are enhanced by EGYM technology.
- Biometric assessments - the Fitness Hub assesses your strength, flexibility, cardiovascular and metabolic rate to offer personalised results, ensuring your journey is unique to you.
- Easy to visualise results - your biometric results will be presented in the form of your 'BioAge' which can be compared to your own physical age, giving you a solid foundation to start your journey.
- Track your progress and stay motivated - having the results displayed as a 'BioAge' makes it easy track progress. Once you've been shown how to use the EGYM Fitness hub and feel comfortable to do so, you can check-in yourself and re-assess to see any improvements to your 'BioAge'.
