Short
15 minutes, start to finish. Long enough to work. Short enough that you stop negotiating with yourself.
15-minute personal training · Hamilton
A real coach. A plan built off how your body actually moves. 15 minutes you'll do, instead of an hour you keep skipping. Starts with a free consult.
The method
An hour you never do is worth nothing. 15 minutes you actually repeat is worth everything. We built the whole program around the session you can't talk yourself out of.
15 minutes, start to finish. Long enough to work. Short enough that you stop negotiating with yourself.
Every rep is chosen. Your plan comes off your movement assessment and gets adjusted at every monthly check-in.
Consistency beats intensity. Twelve weeks of sessions you actually do will beat any big week you never repeat.
The session is 15 minutes. The point is the habit you still have a year from now.
How it works
No checkout button, no template programs. Three steps, and the first one is free.
Pick a time. It costs nothing and you sign nothing. We talk about where you are and what you actually want.
We watch how you move before you touch a bar. That is how we know where to start and what to avoid. No guessing, no copy-paste program.
You get matched to the right package and we go to work. 15 minutes a session, a coach in your corner, numbers that prove it is working.
In every package
12-week blocks. We confirm which one fits at your consult, after we have seen you move.
Who's behind it
We're Christo and Caleb. We fell in love with lifting and never got over it. Twelve-plus years between us, and the same lesson every single time: getting fit isn't the hard part, starting is. The best moment in this job was never somebody's PB. It's the person who was terrified to walk in, standing there like they belong. That's who we built Catalift 15 for.
Christo Durand & Caleb Wesselson · Founders
Made for starting.
Getting fit isn't the hard part. Starting is.
You're busy. "I don't have time" isn't an excuse, it's your actual life.
You've never trained properly and you don't want to look lost in a gym.
You were fit once. Then work, kids, life.
Big gyms make you want to turn around and walk out.
You're done guessing what to do and hoping it works.
You want someone who notices when you don't show up.
Who it's not for: if you're chasing elite numbers or you need specialised programming, we'll tell you straight, we're not your guys. We're built for the first step and the twelve weeks after it.
Questions
Really. An hour you skip is worth nothing. 15 minutes, coached properly and repeated, is worth a lot. Every session is programmed to the minute off your movement assessment, adjusted monthly and tested quarterly. And if you're chasing elite performance numbers, we'll say it straight: this isn't built for you.
No. The app holds your workouts, progress, streaks and your coach's messages. A human writes the plan, watches you lift, and follows up on your meals and steps when you're nowhere near the gym. An app doesn't notice when you disappear. We do.
We talk goals and history, then we watch you move. You leave knowing exactly where you'd start and which package fits. No cost, nothing to sign.
Because we won't program for a body we haven't seen move. The consult is free, and it's the difference between a plan and a template.
Perfect. That's exactly who this is for. Beginners, restarters, anyone who feels out of place on a gym floor. You start where you are, not where a program assumes you should be.
Weekly, in 12-week blocks. Every package is identical except how many 15-minute sessions we train together each week. The more sessions, the less each one costs you.
Your own coach, the Catalift app, accountability between sessions, a monthly check-in and quarterly testing. Same on every package.
