## Is online personal training worth it?

If you want a trainer next to you counting your reps, no. Pete coaches online only, so an in-person trainer suits you better. If you want a plan for your week, a weekly check-in and answers in chat, Performance costs €129 a month at the launch price. That is under €30 a week, and no session costs extra.
