Why Semi-Private Personal Training Might Be the Sweet Spot You’re Looking For
You want results. You want a plan. But maybe 1-on-1 training feels too intense — or too expensive. At 4D Gym in South Melbourne, many of our members find the perfect balance with semi-private personal training.
It’s the structure of private coaching, the motivation of training with others, and the flexibility to fit your lifestyle. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to break a plateau, semi-private training might be the smartest move you make this year.
What Is Semi-Private Personal Training?
It’s not a group class, and it’s not a solo session. Semi-private training means:
• 2 to 4 clients training at the same time
• Each person following their own personalised program
• An expert personal trainer supervising, coaching, and adjusting as needed
• A focused, supportive environment — without the crowd or chaos
You still get individual attention. You still follow your own progress. But you share the space — and the energy — with a few others on a similar journey.
Why It Works So Well
Semi-private training offers the best of both worlds:
✅ Customisation — Your training is built for your goals, injuries, and experience level
✅ Accountability — You’re not alone, and that builds consistency
✅ Expert coaching — A trainer is always there, keeping your technique sharp and progress steady
✅ Affordability — Get high-level coaching for less than the cost of private sessions
✅ Community — A low-pressure, friendly atmosphere that makes training enjoyable
At 4D Gym, our South Melbourne PT clients in semi-private sessions often progress just as fast — sometimes faster — than private clients because they’re more consistent, more engaged, and more relaxed.
Who Is Semi-Private Training Ideal For?
Semi-private works especially well for:
• People who want guidance, but don’t need constant 1-on-1 attention
• Those who enjoy the vibe of a small group, but not the chaos of a bootcamp
• Clients with specific goals (fat loss, strength, injury rehab, etc.)
• Busy professionals looking for structure without rigidity
• Anyone who wants results without burnout or boredom
Many of our Port Melbourne PT and South Melbourne clients start in semi-private to build confidence, then stay because it fits their lifestyle perfectly.
What a Semi-Private Session Looks Like at 4D Gym
Each client arrives and works through their personalised program under the guidance of one of our expert personal trainers. While one client might be rehabbing a knee, another could be working on deadlift technique — and both get real-time coaching throughout.
There’s no yelling, no waiting for equipment, no one-size-fits-all programming. Just focused, effective work in a clean, quiet space.
The Results Speak for Themselves
Our semi-private clients:
• Gain strength week after week
• Reduce injury risk and fix movement issues
• Drop body fat steadily (without extreme dieting)
• Feel supported and accountable without pressure
• Actually look forward to their training sessions
And best of all? They stick with it. Because it works — and it fits.
