How it works
Pick a plan and sign up.
Answer a few questions: your goal, where you train (gym or home), your experience and any injuries.
Your plan is built around your answers: your training, your meal plan, or both, depending on the plan you pick.
Train and log it in the app: your sessions, your weights, your food and your progress.
Who it's for
- You train at a gym or at home and want a real plan instead of guessing.
- You used to train with me in Cape Town and moved away, or you've never been near Cape Town at all.
- You want someone in your corner for more accountability: that's Boost Coach and Coach+.
- You already train and only need your food sorted: that's Nutrition Only. See the meal plans.
Questions
- Do I need a gym?
- No. Boost Go has gym programs and a home program built around the equipment you have, or none. On Boost Coach and Coach+ your program can be full gym, bodyweight at home, or home with whatever equipment you've got.
- Is it one-on-one?
- Only on the Coach plans. Boost Coach and Coach+ are one-on-one with me: I build your program, you message me in the app, and I review your results every month (on Coach+ we check in every week). Boost Go and Nutrition Only are self-serve plans, built from your answers.
- What does it cost?
- Boost Go is R299/month and Nutrition Only R199/month, both with 7 days free (your card is checked, and you aren't charged for 7 days). Boost Coach is R950/month and Coach+ R1,500/month, with 50% off your first month.
- Can I cancel?
- Yes, any time, in the app under Manage billing. Nothing more is charged after that, and you keep your plan until the end of the time you've paid for. If you cancel within 7 days of your first payment, you get a full refund.
- I don't live in South Africa. Can I join?
- Yes. Prices are in rand and you pay by card through PayFast, so cards from outside South Africa work too.
