Personal Training

Take your fitness to the next level with professional personal training at Bonham Barbell Club in Bonham, TX.

Bonham Barbell Club partners with experienced independent personal trainers who bring decades of combined experience and specialize in helping clients build strength, improve fitness, and reach their personal health and fitness goals safely and effectively.

Whether you're new to working out, looking to get stronger, want help improving your technique, or need the accountability and guidance of a personal trainer, our independent trainers can help you work toward your individual goals with a training approach tailored to your needs.

Personal trainers at Bonham Barbell Club operate as independent contractors while they are personal training. Even if they are separately an employee of the gym while working the front desk, if they are personal training, they are doing so in an independent contractor role. Each trainer independently provides personal training services to members and is responsible for establishing their own training rates, services, schedules, and arrangements with their clients.

Personal training is separate from your Bonham Barbell Club membership. If you choose to work with a personal trainer, you will pay the trainer directly for their personal training services. Personal training fees are arranged directly between you and the individual trainer and may vary based on your goals, training needs, session frequency, and the trainer you choose.

A Bonham Barbell Club gym membership is required to receive personal training from one of our independent trainers. Your gym membership provides you with access to our facility 24/7, while personal training is a separate service provided directly by the independent trainer.
