Book Free ConsultationWear comfortable sportswear and clean trainers. Bring a water bottle if you have one (we have water available too). There is free parking on site at Bedford Business Centre. Aim to arrive about five minutes early so you have time to settle in without rushing. That is all you need to do to prepare.
You will be greeted by name. We know you are coming, and we are expecting you. Your coach will show you around the studio, point out where everything is, and introduce you to anyone else training at the time. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed. This is not a big commercial gym. It is a small coaching studio where everyone knows each other.
Your coach will sit down with you and have a proper conversation. They will ask about your goals, your fitness history, any injuries or health conditions, and what you have tried before. This is not a sales pitch. It is a genuine chat to understand where you are now and where you want to be. There is no pressure to sign up on the spot. Ask as many questions as you like.
If you decide to train, your coach explains every exercise before you do it. They demonstrate the movement, talk you through the technique, and watch every single rep. If something needs adjusting, they correct it immediately. Every exercise is scaled to your current level. It does not matter if you have never touched a weight before. Your coach meets you where you are.
Your coach will talk you through what happens next: how the coaching app works, when your check-ins happen, and how your programme gets built around your goals. You will receive access to the R&B Fitness app where you can track your workouts, log your nutrition, and stay connected with your coach between sessions. From here, it is consistent coaching every step of the way.
Every single member at R&B Fitness started exactly where you are now. Nobody walks in already fit. Nobody walks in knowing what to do. That is what your coach is for. There is no judgement, no intimidation, and no expectation that you should already know things. You just need to show up. We handle the rest.
Absolutely not. Most of our members started with little or no gym experience. Your coach tailors every session to your current fitness level and builds you up gradually. There is no minimum fitness requirement. You just need to turn up.
Comfortable sportswear and clean trainers are all you need. There is no dress code and no need for anything fancy. Just wear something you can move freely in.
No. Your coach is with you for the entire session. In our 5 to 1 sessions there are a maximum of five people, and your coach watches every rep, corrects your form, and guides you through every exercise. You are never left to figure things out alone.
Tell your coach during the consultation. We work with people who have back pain, joint issues, post-surgical recovery needs, and many other conditions. Your programme is adapted around any limitations so you can train safely and make progress.
