Private Training vs Group Training: What’s Right for You?

“Should I do private training or join a group class?”, is one of the most common questions, most people who are just starting their fitness journey, ask themselves.

Well, it depends on your goals, your schedule, and what kind of environment helps you thrive.

At Golden Hour CrossFit, here in Piņķi (just outside Riga), we offer both private training and small group training. And each has its unique benefits.

Let’s break it down so you can decide what’s right for you.

Private Training:1-on-1 Coaching for Faster Results

With personal training, everything is tailored to You – your body, your goals, and your pace.

The Benefits:

• Custom Programming
      Whether you want to lose weight, build muscle, or recover from injury, we     create a training plan just for you.
• Maximum Flexibility
      Book sessions when it suits your schedule – mornings, evenings, in the     middle of the day. You name it! We are here for you.
• Full Attention
      Your coach is focused 100% on you, correcting movement, motivating you,     and tracking your progress.
• Faster Progress
      People reach their goals faster with personalized guidance and     accountability. Period.

Choose personal training if:

• You are a beginner who wants     that extra support
• You have an injurie or serious mobility     limitations
• You are a busy professional     with changing schedule
• One of your goals is to prepare     for a specific event (trip to mountains, rough environments, competition)

Small Group Training: Motivation & Community in a Small Group

Our group classes aren’t your typical packed gym session.
We keep it small. Max 5 people. So, you still get individual attention and expert coaching.

The Benefits:

• Built-in Motivation
      Training alongside others pushes you to work harder and show up     consistently. So, if you have a friend who could also benefit greatly from     moving more frequently, start together!
• Fun + Social
      Many of our members say the best part of the workout is that they don’t     have to do that alone, but amongst friends.
• Coaching Included
      Every class is led by a Certified CrossFit Trainer and, yes, he has your     best interest - goals, experience and other specifics in mind when scaling     the workouts for you.
• Affordable
      Group training offers professional coaching at a lower price point than     1-on-1, but you still get a lot of coaching and scaling. So, if your     schedule allows you attend groups, you should consider group classes.

Choose group classes if:

• You enjoy working out with     others
• You value coaching but don’t     need full personalization
• You want high energy and     accountability

And remember! You don’t have to choose just one. You can combine both options:
1-on-1 sessions to fine-tune skills or overcome challenges, plus group training for energy and routine.
