The Give it A Go programme supports you to become more physically active. Following an initial health check, you'll be given a six week programme with a range of tailor activities to simply give it a go. At the end of the six weeks you'll feel more confident to keep the right activities to keep you moving. 

These sessions last for 60 minutes and will be conducted by a Fitness Instructor.  As part of the induction, the instructor will:   

• Provide an overview of the Give it a Go programme
• Get to know your needs               
• Explore how ready you are to become physically active
• Identify barriers to becoming physically active and agree on how to overcome them
• Identify activities you would like to try or take part in             
• Set your goals     
• Provide a physical activity plan (covering a variety of activities, both inside and outside of the centre)
• Provide a simple gym workout plan (if applicable)  

You should aim to have your induction booked once you've joined on a Better Health membership. You'll find the Give it a Go induction under the Gym Inductions category when booking online or when booking 'other activities' via the Better UK app.

At the end of the 6-week programme, you will be encouraged to complete a Give it a Go Final Assessment. During this 30-minute session, the Fitness Instructor will:

• Ask you for feedback on the activity plan and amend it where required
• Evaluate the goals originally set and amend them where required
• Discuss any barriers which have been encountered over the past 6 weeks
• Motivate and encourage you to continue becoming physically active
• Review membership options available and ensure you have the correct membership

You should aim to have your final assessment booked in during the 5th week of the programme. You'll find the Give it a Go final assessment under the Gym Inductions category when booking online or when booking 'other activities' via the Better UK app.

During these 1-hour  sessions, a Fitness Instructor will be available on the gym floor for you to ask questions.  During the session, the Fitness Instructor can make small adjustments to your activity plan and/or gym workout plan but, if you want a more detailed review of your plan, you should book a re-focus session instead. All Give it a Go members will be able to book into the sessions, even if they don’t need to speak to a Fitness Instructor; they can just attend the gym.

Simply choose one of our Better Health memberships and you'll get inclusive access to our gyms, swimming pools, and fitness classes, plus discounts on a range of activities. What's more, all adult Better Health memberships include access to Better at Home, the Give it a Go programme and Better UK App.
