How does a live session work?
You join a video call with your coach from the Spotter app. They guide you through each exercise, watch your form, and adjust the session as you go. Afterwards you rate the session and your coach records a note.
What equipment do I need?
Very little. A phone or laptop with a camera, enough space to move, and ideally a pair of dumbbells and some resistance bands. If you have no kit, your coach will start you with bodyweight work.
I have never lifted weights. Is Spotter right for me?
Yes. Many of our clients are beginners. Your coach starts where you are and builds up gradually, with a focus on good form.
Can I train if I have an injury or health condition?
Tell your coach during your induction call. They will plan around it. Spotter is not a medical service, so please check with your doctor before starting a new exercise programme, especially after an injury or pregnancy.
How do I choose a coach?
When you sign up you pick the goals you want to work on and then choose a coach from the list. You can change your coach later from your account.
What happens in the first session?
Your first session is an induction call. Your coach asks about your goals, history, equipment and schedule, and takes a few starting measurements so your plan is built on real information.
How do I book, move or cancel a session?
From the app. Choose a time to book, and reschedule or cancel from your upcoming sessions. Reminders are sent before each session.
Can I message my coach?
Yes. Every plan includes messaging, including photos and files, so you can ask questions and share progress between sessions.
How much does it cost?
Plans start at £79 a month for 5 live sessions. See our pricing page for all three plans.
Can I cancel any time?
Yes. Plans are month to month with no contract.
Is my health information private?
Yes. Health information is protected, and only you and your coach can see it. Read our privacy policy for details.
