Training is for everyone. Scroll down to read more about why this program suits you.
We understand that some gyms can often feel intimidating, but believe everyone should feel confident and safe on their health & fitness journey. This is why we created the Starter Gym Program!
It is a program designed for those who are new to the gym or want to return to their training, but need a refresher on technique and movement.
It enables individuals to confidently build a foundation 3 times a week over a 4 week period. These sessions are capped at 10 people per session allowing the trainer to dedicate valuable one-on-one time, correcting proper techniques and improving movement patterns often used in Group and Strength & Conditioning classes.
This program is great if you have never been to a gym before, new to exercise or perhaps a little nervous/anxious to join in our Strength & Conditioning or Group sessions. It's also a great refresher if you've had some time off from the gym to practice the correct technique and to feel comfortable.
Each session focuses on a specific movement. We break it down, build strength with correct technique then progress.
At the end of each week, an email is sent to you with key components, terminology and notes from each session. Our trainers are here to help!
Sessions run for 45 minutes on Monday, Wednesday & Friday 5:30 am, 6:30 am and 9:30 amat Black Box (across the road from Chocolate Box Training) - The Gym before the Gym.

Can anyone do this program?
This program is perfect for those people who haven't trained in a gym before or those who are returning to training after time off. If you are someone who is not confident doing resistance training or who just has no idea where to start. This is for you.
What if I have never been to a gym before?
This program was made for you!
I can't make all 3 sessions each week, is that ok?
No problems, we understand life is busy but we do encourage you to attend a minimum of 2 sessions each week. Where possible, 3 sessions is what you should be aiming for as you will get the most out of the program.
What is an example of a Starter Gym Program session?
We start with a warm up focusing on raising the heart rate and preparing the body for movement through a series of range of motion exercises. We will then move into the Strength component where we will be working on specific movements (e.g Lunges) before finishing the session with a 10-15 min conditioning piece using cardio machines and body weight exercises.
What happens at the end of the 4 weeks?
Continue your awesome training routine with us in our main Group sessions plus compliment your training with some Pilates, Yoga or Barre. All available to you as an Unlimited Chocolate Box Training member.
How much does the program cost and are there any on-going costs?
Trial the program for free using our One Week Free promotion. From there, become a CBT Unlimited member to continue your training plus gain access to all other programs available to you here at The Box!
What if I am already a gym member on an existing plan, can I switch?
Yes, you sure can. You will need to purchase the starter pack for $200 for access to the starter program. Simply fill out the form below and a member of the team will be able to help. Please note that you will not be able to book on the app until you have the Starter Program membership.
Can I do the Starter Program but still do other classes at the gym or Studio Ellipsis?
Sure! Continue to enjoy your SE classes whilst paying for your membership but know that access to the starter program is an additional outright cost.
Is there a creche or childminding available?
Bring the prams or kids along and we will look after you :)
