SESSION INFO
What are Shared PT Sessions? In these sessions there are up to 4 people training at the same time, and everyone is being coached through their own individual session plan – your plan is tailored to your body and goals just the same as in one-on-one sessions, but you are sharing the training space and the coach with the others in the group.
What are Group Classes? In these sessions there are up to 12 people training, and everyone is being coached through a session plan together. These sessions are suitable for ALL fitness levels and abilities – from complete beginner to fitness ninja, there are always options to suit everyone and there is no pressure or expectation to keep up with anyone or meet a certain level. For a more in-depth rundown on the different type of classes scroll down to read the ‘Group Class Breakdown’.
On the Studio Timetable, all sessions in purple are Shared PT sessions, all in orange are Group Classes (an outline of each class style is below), and those in magenta are THE DIVIDE – a session running exclusively for 5 Week Winter Series participants.
We have both an In-Studio and Virtual Timetable on offer (with Virtual sessions running on Zoom), meaning you can exercise with us from your home or your hotel room no matter where you are – if you have gym equipment, great, if you don’t have any, that’s fine too! We will cater the session to whatever you have.
If you want to try a Virtual Session, just click the buttons below to join at the time of your session…
PUMP it! is our flagship group class – it’s a full body functional style class that incorporates both weights and cardio, with the goal of these classes to increase strength and fitness, boost mobility and promote a higher metabolism. Every class is different, and you’ll find a breakdown further below so you know the outline and style of each class for the week.
Restore is our recovery and mobility based class – it’s all about muscle releasing, postural improvement and mid-week restoration. This is a great way to understand our mobility training better and enjoy a relaxed session if you’re feeling sore or want to ease into group classes.
THE DIVIDE is an exclusive class added the schedule during the 5 Week Series only for series participants. Within the class you have the option to do a workout focused around your goal – strength, cardio or mobility. Or if you like, you can use this time as ‘open gym’ time to do your own thing too.

THE WEEKLY BREAKDOWN
Here are all the important dates you need with sessions that are exclusive to 5 Week Series participants. Of course you’ll participate in all your regular training sessions and sauna sessions amongst these dates too.
*Note: none of these are compulsory, you are welcome to come to as many or as little as you like – do whatever suits your schedule and your body!
What is Baseline and Finish Line Testing? This is where we assess and record metrics on your mobility, and then you complete tests specific to your goals (overall fitness, strength or cardio). We know the idea of this can be a little intimidating if you’re just starting out, but there’s zero pressure to keep up with anyone else or do anything outside your comfort zone. You don’t have to do testing if you don’t want to, but we highly recommend it so you can see your progress and celebrate your wins at the end of the 5 weeks!
CHOOSING YOUR STREAM
Within this series you choose your focus. Check out your options and if you haven’t already chosen one, let the Coaching Team know which stream feels right for you.
Shape your habits! This is a great starting point if you’re just getting back into exercise and you just want to focus on building your routine and enjoying an all round approach.
Focus on improving your strength and power with strength-specific training to help your technique and challenge your muscular strength – deadlifts, squats, bench press and more!
Challenge your cardiovascular health with SPRINT – improve your fitness and muscle conditioning with heart rate-specific training – running goals, cardio fitness goals… this is for you!
Focus on bodyweight movement – mobility, flexibility, even calisthenics/gymnastics moves like handstands, rings etc! Select a skill or two to build on or just focus on mobility.
CHOOSING YOUR GROUP CLASSES
Across the week each PUMP it! class has a different style, as outlined below. We have highlighted which class styles are best suited to each focus stream. Of course you’re welcome to come to any class regardless of your stream and your goals, this is just to give you an idea of which ones would be most helpful for your focus.
HOW TO BOOK YOUR SESSIONS
It is essential you book into sessions using our app – simply download the “PEACHI” app from your app/play store and select log in using your email address and the password you created during your initial registration.
TO BOOK YOUR TRAINING SESSIONS:
1. Select Calendar
2. Select Book Class (always select this even for Shared PT – ignore the “Book PT” Button).
3. Use the arrows to select your desired day, then scroll down through the list of sessions available.
4. Select “Book Now” to book into any session.
You can also select “Details” to see where the session will be run (ie. Studio for indoors, or Pit for the outdoor area).
In the event the class is full you will see “Join Waitlist” – always join the waitlist if you want to attend that session (it is VERY rare we won’t be able to add you to the class) – once you have been added it will appear as “booked in” in your app.
CANCELLING SESSIONS
In the event you need to cancel a session please ensure you cancel yourself on the app with as much notice as possible. You can do this using the same process as above to book, but just select “Cancel” in place of “Book Now”.
For Shared PT we require a minimum of 4 hours notice to cancel a session, and we ask that you message your Coach to let them know you can’t make it too.
TO BOOK YOUR SAUNA SESSIONS:
1. Select Calendar
2. Select Book Specialty
3. Use the arrows to select your desired day, then select Infrared Sauna as the session type, and 45 minutes as the duration.
4. Select Search to see times and Book to confirm the time you want.
If you’ve got any questions please don’t hesitate to reach out to the coaches at any time – we are always here to support you and ensure you have a positive Peachi experience!
You can always contact Coach Kim on 0433 719 354, or hit the button below to email us…
Just comfortable clothes and a water bottle, that’s it! Keep in mind that a lot of sessions are outside, so in the colder months wear layers so you can stay warm but regulate your temperature as you warm up with exercise!
> How do I know which area my session is?
We have 2 training zones – The Studio is our indoor space, and The Pit is our outdoor space. You can see which zone your session is in by checking in the app in the “Details” section of that session… or just ask the coaches when you come in and we can help you out.
STARTING OUT
> How frequently should I be exercising when I’m first starting out?
This answer will be different for everyone, but we recommend at least 2 – 3 days per week depending on your goals, your level and your schedule.
We will ALWAYS adjust sessions to suit how your body is feeling on the day, so even if you’re a little sore and just beginning still come to sessions and we’ll work with you to ensure you’re moving at a good level for you on that day.
> I am SO sore – did I do something wrong? Should I cancel my session and rest?
It is very unlikely you’ve done something wrong, the soreness you’re feeling is most likely DOMS – Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness. It can appear 12 – 36 hours after your session and stick around for a few days, and is nothing to worry about even if getting off your chair feels like the hardest thing ever!
We DO NOT recommend cancelling your session or resting when you have DOMS, because it actually just prolongs the soreness and can make it worse. The more you move the more the DOMS will lessen, so always still come in and we will adjust your session to suit how your body is feeling that day.
YOUR SESSIONS
> The session I want to book into has a ‘Waitlist’, what do I do?
Join the waitlist with as much notice as possible and we will do our best to add you to the session (it’s pretty rare we can’t fit you in). Once you have been added into the session it will appear in your app as a booked session.
> Is there a session cancelation policy?
Shared PT: If you cancel a session within 4 hours of the scheduled start time you can be charged a $5 fee each time, unless you contact your coach to let them know. It is at the coach’s discretion whether you are charged the $5 fee.
Group Classes: You can cancel sessions at any time in the app. You do not need to let the coach know in any other form.
You’ve probably noticed our TV screens in the gym with the squares changing colour during your sessions.. This is MYZONE, a heart rate system we use to track your training sessions, progress and effort.
It’s not compulsory to have one to her a member at Peachi, but we strongly recommend it so we can use science to back our sessions and coaching to help you get the most out of your sessions and ensure you are recovering adequately too.
We love MZYONE for a few reasons:
> It helps us see what level you’re working at so we can ensure your sessions are at the right level for your body, and also helps us ensure you get enough recovery time between exercises too.
> You can track your effort and improvement as your fitness increases and get a better understanding of how your body is working during exercise.
> It doesn’t compare your calorie burn or fitness level to anyone else, it’s all about comparing your workouts to your workouts and exercising at the right level for you.
> It helps keep you exercising accountable and consistent – you reach a MEP target each month to level up to new statuses.. we even have singlets to reward each status level to celebrate your training consistency.
> It’s fun and motivating – we love seeing those numbers up on the screen and members are motivated to hit their targets!
Here is a couple of overview videos to get a better understanding of what MYZONE is and how it works…
If you want to grab a MYZONE band and join the fun just ask the coaches and we can set you up!
Bands are $99 and yours to keep and use both in the studio and in your own training for good.
We have a range of membership options to suit everyone depending on their preferred style of training, schedule and budget.
Check them out and ask your coach any questions or let them know what option you think might suit you best…
NUTRITION & LIFESTYLE COACHING
Exercise is just one piece of the puzzle when it comes to living a fit, happy and healthy life – we believe in creating healthy and balanced habits in nutrition and across all areas of life too.
We are NOT about fad diets, calorie counting, restrictive meal plans or unrealistic expectations when it comes to nutrition.
Why? Because although you may achieve quick-fix results these practices and results are very rarely sustainable, meaning you quickly end up right back where you started. Instead, we focus on your habits and creating small, actionable changes that will build positive shifts to your body, mind and lifestyle without feeling too overwhelming.
Through this program our goals are:
> Education: Learn what is best for YOUR mind and body and cut through the confusion on all the cookie-cutter approaches out there.
> Accountability: Be coached and supported by us (judgement-free) as you understand your behaviors and mindset around food and create positive change.
> Empowerment: Use your growing knowledge and take back control of your nutrition and lifestyle habits so you feel empowered to achieve your goals.
How It Works
> You work one-on-one with our coaches to explore your current nutrition and lifestyle habits and make gradual positive changes
> Participate in Nutrition and Lifestyle coaching alongside any Peachi membership for a cost of $27 per week for 10 weeks.
