person running Personal fitness training gives you the opportunity to exercise in a one-on-one environment with a nationally certified personal trainer, educated through PCC’s Exercise Science program. Your trainer will evaluate your current fitness level and design an individual program based on your fitness test results and goals, then guide you through a safe and effective routine.
Fitness training your way
PCC personal trainers are here for you. Training sessions can be done either in person at the trainer’s respective campus or remotely via Zoom. If you are at home, your trainer will work with whatever tools you have in your home (be it free weights or soup cans!) to help craft a fitness routine that fits your lifestyle.
Program details
The personal training program is designed for low- to moderate-risk individuals who have clearance from their healthcare provider to exercise. Participants may be asked to provide clearance from their physician prior to beginning the training sessions.
First session: initial consultation, health risk appraisal, and fitness testing. Following sessions: individual exercise program based on results from your assessment and your current fitness and goals.
Sessions must be used in the term purchased; no refunds for unused sessions.
Individual sessions must be canceled with your trainer 24 hours in advance. Sessions canceled with less than 24 hours notice are counted against your package total.
If PCC cancels your session, two attempts will be made to schedule a make-up session to take place before the end of the term. Your make-up session may or may not be with your regular trainer. If PCC is not able to make up your session, you will not be granted a refund.
Additional sessions may not be added to any package. In the event that more training sessions are desired, it is necessary to register for a new package (CRN).
You cannot register for the same CRN twice.
Packages are available on a first come first served basis.
Students must be registered in a package before participating in any training sessions.
Registration and scheduling process
Review the personal trainer profiles and availability and choose a trainer.
Select a training package and register for your selected trainer’s corresponding CRN.
Your trainer will contact you via PCC email or phone by the first week of the term to schedule your training sessions.
Refund and drop policy
If you want to drop, you must do so online in MyPCC one (1) day prior to the first day of the term. If you need assistance dropping the class after the start of the term, please contact Community Ed at communityed@pcc.edu [opens in new window].
