METCON (metabolic conditioning) is a broader category that focuses on improving your body's energy systems through varied, functional movements and equipment. HIIT typically refers to shorter, more repetitive cardio-based intervals. METCON sessions tend to include more movement variety and are programmed around energy system development specifically.

Two to three sessions per week works well for most members. Because of the intensity, recovery between sessions matters, your coach will help you build a schedule that balances METCON with your other training and allows proper recovery.

Getting started begins with a free consultation, a no-pressure conversation about your goals, your history, and what's worked or hasn't before. From there, we build your personalised plan across training, nutrition, and sleep, complete a baseline assessment, and get you into your first session. No guesswork, no figuring it out alone.

Yes, and you're exactly who OC was built for. Our coaches adapt every session to where you are right now, not where you think you should be. Whether you're returning after years away or starting from scratch, you'll receive the same personalised attention and coaching as every other member.

At a regular gym, you pay a fee to hire equipment, then you're on your own. At OC Health Clubs, every session is coach-led. Your trainer knows your goals, your injuries, and your history. Your programme is built around you, your progress is tracked every six weeks, and if you don't show up, we check in. That's why our attendance rate is 92%, compared to an industry average of around 30%.

Absolutely. Tell us about your injuries during your initial consultation and we'll build your programme around them. Our coaches are experienced in working with members managing back issues, knee problems, shoulder injuries, and chronic pain. Adapting movements in real time so you can train safely and make progress without setbacks.

OC offers two pathways: a Group Classes membership with unlimited coached sessions per week, and a Personal Training membership with up to three personalised sessions per week. Both begin with a 28-day programme designed to build your foundation. Pricing is discussed during your free consultation so we can recommend the right option for your goals and schedule.

We run 60+ sessions every week at our Queenstown facility, from 5:45am through to 7:30pm. Early enough for before-work training, flexible enough to fit around most schedules. Most members train three times per week. Your coach will help you find a routine that works for your lifestyle.

Yes. We'll assess where you're at and guide you toward whichever option suits your goals and schedule best, and that can change over time as your needs evolve.
