Review: Personal training at Symmetry Gym

When I first stepped into Symmetry Gym, I was very in need of fitness help! I had a baby 6 months ago so to say I was unfit and out of shape would be an understatement...not to mention a little sleep deprived!

I turned up to the gym, located in the Gold and Diamond Park, a little nervous to find out what was in store for me, but the (perfectly toned!) team quickly made me feel at ease. We started with a chat about my fitness and nutrition. The team gave me some simple tweaks to my current diet to help me see results, and I then had a simple fitness test. 

Symmetry promise that they are different to the numerous boot camp and fitness solutions in Dubai, as they offer a totally personalised solution so I was hopeful that they would be kind to me as there was nowhere for me to hide!

Over the next week, I visited the gym 3 times, with 3 different trainers, for half hour sessions of intense, but fun fitness...everything from squats and planks to jumping jacks and bicep curls...everytime, I left the sessions feeling great, even though slightly sore, so it definitely worked! I without doubt did more reps of each exercise than I ever would if exercising alone, the team had a great way of keeping you motivated and pushing you to your limits, without pushing you too far.

The sessions at Symmetry are just what I needed to kick start shifting this baby weight and I'm now working with them to come up with a long term food and fitness solution that works for me, is cost effective and fits into my life as a busy mum! Plus, when joining Symmetry, you get a free membership to Appleseeds play centre next door for you and your little ones to enjoy!

If you are serious about getting in shape and staying in shape through a sensible diet and exercise over time, Symmetry Gym could well be for you!
