What is the cost of personal training in Hamburg?
On average, personal training in Hamburg costs between 85 and 150 EUR per hour. Prices vary depending on the range of services and the trainer’s experience, expertise, and reputation, as well as the location of the training.

At Rocco Studios, you can expect a premium sports and health concept that combines personal training, physiotherapy, and wellness elements, following a holistic approach.
Is personal training beneficial for me?
Personal training is always worthwhile, especially for beginners and active athletes. It motivates and pushes you forward in your training, sometimes even beyond your limits, which can be beneficial. A qualified personal trainer ensures your overall well-being and correct exercise execution. They also provide holistic guidance on topics such as nutrition, recovery, mindset, and help you fully focus on your training.
How does the process work during personal training?
At Rocco Studios, we begin with an initial assessment, where we gather your health history, discuss your goals, and work together to create your personalized fitness, physiotherapy, and wellness plan. We adopt a holistic approach from the start and provide one-on-one guidance throughout your journey.
Is personal training allowed during the COVID-19 pandemic?
Yes, according to the current regulations of the Hamburg Senate.
How effective is personal training in treating pain?
Very well. At Rocco Studios, we have successfully alleviated many complaints such as shoulder issues, knee problems, and back pain (as seen in our Google reviews). We also provide training for rheumatism patients.
What equipment is used during personal training?

Is personal training suitable for beginners?
Yes! Personal training is highly beneficial for beginners. It is especially important for beginners to learn proper form and technique. A qualified personal trainer can provide valuable guidance and teach you about your body and overall health, enabling you to have a better understanding of yourself.
At Rocco Studios, we prioritize one-on-one customer support to ensure you feel supported and safe throughout your training journey.
Is personal training recommended for children?
Yes, generally speaking, personal training can be suitable for children. However, group training, especially in smaller groups, can also be beneficial for children. It is important to consider the child’s age and start with a more playful approach. At Rocco Studios, some parents also participate in training sessions with their children, which can create a positive and supportive environment.
Is personal training recommended for muscle building?
Yes! For muscle building, it is important to train specifically, meaning regularly, long-term, and tailored to you and your body. A well-designed training plan is crucial. Your nutrition also plays a significant role in this process.
Is personal training recommended for pregnant women?
Yes! Exercise is generally beneficial and healthy for both the mother and the baby during pregnancy. However, pregnant women should pay specific attention to the type and intensity of exercise they engage in. Personal training can be valuable in providing guidance and ensuring safe and appropriate workouts. At Rocco Studios, we also recommend targeted post-pregnancy strength training to aid in recovery.
Does personal training help with back pain?
Yes! In the case of pain, including back pain, the root cause is often not directly at the site of pain. A skilled personal trainer knows how to address the underlying issues to alleviate pain.
Does personal training help with knee problems?
Yes! The knee is a complex joint surrounded by various muscles and tendon structures. It is essential, like any joint, to train it specifically and, most importantly, comprehensively (360-degree training) to maintain a balanced force distribution around the joint and prevent imbalances. A good personal trainer pays attention to you and your body during training sessions.
Does personal training help with tension in the shoulders and neck?
Yes! A good personal trainer can provide you with targeted relaxation and strengthening exercises for the shoulders and neck.
