Coached from Dubai. Trained wherever you are.
Online personal training, written by me.
I am Francesco Zen. I have coached people one to one since 2007, and I coach from Dubai. I do not come to your home or your gym. You train where you are: at home, in a hotel room, in your building’s gym. I write your plan, adjust it as your weeks change, and we meet online, or over a coffee if you are in Dubai.

No commute. No fixed slot.
Diaries move
A session booked for seven on Tuesday is the first thing to go when a meeting runs over or a flight changes. Your plan moves with the week instead.
The summer heat
For months of the year, training moves indoors. A plan built for your living room or your building’s gym does not depend on the weather.
You travel
Hotel rooms, a different time zone, a week of client dinners. The plan comes with you, and so do I.
From the first call to week 12.
- 1. A 20 minute call. We talk about your week, your health and what you have tried before. If it fits, I say so. If it does not, I say that too.
- 2. The consultation. Online, or over a coffee if you are in Dubai. I learn how your weeks really run, and we agree what is realistic for each of them.
- 3. Your first tests. A one leg stand, upper body strength, a squat and posture, so we both know where you start.
- 4. Your plan, written by me. Training, food and recovery, around your week. About three hours a week, often less.
- 5. A call every week or every two weeks, your choice, and Mr Z, my AI coaching extension, every day in between.
- 6. Week 12. We test again and look at the results side by side.
Prices in full.
Z12 is £900, paid at the start, with a full refund within 14 days. Z24, if you need it, is £2,100, in one payment or two.
Prices are in pounds sterling.
A full diary, and a plan that fits it.
People in their late forties to early sixties with a full diary, who want to feel fit and capable, not train like an athlete.
It is not for anyone who wants a trainer standing beside them for every session. If that is what you need, I will tell you on the call.
Before the call, take the Five Minute Baseline: short tests at home, each against the published average for your age group, scored on your device. Bring your results with you.
What people ask first
Do you train clients in person in Dubai?
No. I coach remotely: I write your plan and adjust it as your weeks change, and you train at home, in a hotel room or in your building’s gym. If you want a trainer beside you for every session, I will tell you on the call that this is not it.
Where do we meet?
Online, or over a coffee if you are in Dubai. The calls during the programme are online, so they work wherever you are that week.
What does it cost?
Z12 is 12 weeks for £900, with a full refund within 14 days. Z24 is 12 more weeks for £2,100, in one payment or two, only if we both agree it is needed. Prices are in pounds sterling.
Do I need a gym?
No. Your plan is built around where you can train: at home, in your building’s gym or in a hotel room when you travel.
Twenty minutes, with me.
We talk about your week, your health and what you have tried before. If the programme fits you, I will say so. If it does not, I will say that too.
