Q&A
I don't really feel comfortable around new people is OFL suitable for me?
100% Get yourself down here. we love everyone, quirks and all! If you don't feel like talking...no problem! ask for a quiet session, we can make adjustments such as minimum chat and quiet or no music. We will do anything we can to ensure you are comfortable visiting our studio.
My training might be going great but will you help with my diet?
Using a method called flexible dieting I am able to set your calories and check if they need adjusting at the end of your session each week. We have seen incredible results from this. This feature is free for clients. Alternatively we are able to work with whichever method suits the clients needs.
I am worried about becoming big and bulky as a female doing weights, is this myth true?
Absolutely not, most of our female clients desire fat loss and toning which is exactly what weight training helps you achieve. it would be incredibly difficult to become 'bulky'.
Do you run any group classes?
At the moment we do not offer group classes. However clients are welcome to arrange their own small groups. We also offer group class options for businesses.
