Everything in Integrated, plus
Only 2 spots open
Groceries are billed at cost and are not included in the monthly price.
Partner training
$650 per month on any tier, and your spouse trains in the same session. The coach is already in the room, which is why it is the cheapest way to add a second person — a couple on Integrated pays $1,995 a month between them, against $2,690 for two separate engagements.
Paying up front
Settling the twelve weeks in one payment takes 10% off the term — Foundation $2,552 · Integrated $3,632 · Concierge $7,412, groceries separate.
You did not stop training because you lost interest. You stopped because a 6am session costs you ninety minutes once you count the drive, the parking and the shower, and there are mornings you do not have ninety minutes to spend. So it slips, and then it is gone, and then it has been four years.
Nothing about that is a discipline problem. It is a logistics problem that has been sold to you as a discipline problem. This removes the logistics.
What you are actually paying for
Five things a studio cannot do.
You are buying about two hours of a coach, not one
Drive out, load in, train, load out, drive back. The session on your calendar is an hour; the block it occupies in your coach’s day is roughly double that. That is the actual unit you are paying for, and it is why this does not price like a studio session. Nobody trains four clients in a morning this way.
The commute moves to our side of the ledger
A studio session is never just the session. It is the change, the drive, the parking, the drive back — forty minutes of overhead around every hour of work. Across a twelve-week engagement, training at home hands you back somewhere between fifteen and twenty hours. That is the part of this that is genuinely hard to buy any other way.
The slot belongs to your household, not to a schedule
Your time is held exclusively — it is not resold to someone else when you travel. That is why a reschedule with twelve hours’ notice costs you nothing and why no session is ever forfeited. A gym cannot offer that, because a gym’s economics depend on the sessions you paid for and did not take.
The programme is built for one person and rebuilt every four weeks
Not a template with your name at the top. Your programme is written against your assessment, then rewritten every four weeks against re-test data — what actually moved, what stalled, what your last month of travel did to it. The plan answers to the numbers, not to the calendar.
The equipment arrives with the coach
You are not asked to build a home gym or clear out the garage. Everything needed comes in and goes out each session — including a Beyond Power VOLTRA I, a $2,199 smart cable system that delivers up to 200 lb of resistance from a footprint smaller than a shoebox. Most sessions run in a space about the size of a rug.
The engagement
What the first twelve weeks look like.
- WEEK 1
Performance Baseline
Movement screen, body composition, strength markers, and an energy and workload audit — the last of which is really an honest conversation about your calendar. Everything measured here is measured again at week 6 and week 12 under the same conditions. Nothing about the programme gets written until this exists.
- WEEKS 2–4
First block
The opening training block, built off the screen. The early priority is competence and consistency rather than load — getting the patterns right and getting you to two sessions a week in a life that has beaten every previous attempt at two sessions a week.
- WEEK 6
First re-test
The same tests, the same conditions, side by side with week 1. This is where you find out whether the thing is working while there is still time to change it. The block that follows is written against these numbers.
- WEEKS 7–11
Second block
Load and complexity move, because by now the patterns hold. This is the stretch where the change becomes visible to other people — and where the app work on the days between sessions starts deciding how fast it goes.
- WEEK 12
Re-test and written report
Full re-test and a written report: every metric, week 1 against week 12, what moved and what did not, and a straight recommendation about what should happen next. You keep the report whether or not you continue.
The other five days
Two sessions a week does not change a life.
What happens on the other five days does. That is the part every gym membership leaves to you, and it is the part that decides whether week 12 looks different from week 1.
Your programme, your exercise library, and your nutrition tracking live in the Take5 app. I can see it. Not to police you — so that the session on Thursday is written against what actually happened on Tuesday, and so a week where everything fell apart gets a plan rather than a lecture.
- Your programme, stored and scaled for hotel gyms and travel weeks
- Video for every movement, so nothing is guessed at
- Self-programming for the days you want to train on your own
- Nutrition tracking your coach reviews and responds to — Integrated and above
Who this is not for.
This is a poor fit if you are looking for a training partner rather than a coach, if twelve weeks is longer than you are willing to commit to anything right now, or if you are comparing this against a $40 session and want to know why it costs more. Those are all reasonable positions — they are just not what this is. If any of them is you, the studio programme is the better call, and it is genuinely good.
The guarantee
Two ways out, both of them yours.
The first two weeks are yours
Four sessions in, if you want out, you get a full refund for any reason. You do not have to explain it, there is no form, and I will not ask you to sit through a call about it.
The week 12 standard
Attend 85% of your sessions and hit the nutrition floor we agree on in week 1, and if the week 12 re-test does not show measurable improvement, training continues at no charge until it does.
Who comes to your door
Tatum Erickson.
Founder & Head Coach, Take5 Athletics
I coach every one of these sessions myself. That is not a scaling strategy — it is the product. A private in-home engagement is not something you hand to a rotating roster of contractors, and the number of households I can serve this way is limited by how many mornings exist in a week.

Questions
Before you book the call.
I travel constantly. Does that break this?
No — it is the normal case, not the exception. Your slot is held for your household, so a session you cannot take is rescheduled rather than forfeited, and twelve hours’ notice is enough. Travel weeks are also where the app carries the load: your programme goes with you, scaled to a hotel gym or to no equipment at all, and I review what you log.
I do not have a home gym or a spare room. Is that a problem?
Most sessions run in about the footprint of a rug — a living room, a garage bay, a patio in summer. The equipment comes in with me and leaves with me. If your space genuinely will not work, I will tell you that on the consultation call rather than after you have paid.
What equipment do I need to own?
None. Everything required arrives with the coach, including the VOLTRA I smart cable system. Some clients eventually buy a piece or two because they want it for the days between sessions, but nothing about the programme depends on you owning anything.
I am injured, or I have not trained in years. Am I too far gone for this?
That describes a large share of the people who start. The week 1 screen exists precisely to find what hurts and what does not move well, and the programme is written around it. Where something needs a medical professional rather than a coach, I refer out — I do not train through it.
Can my spouse or partner train with me?
Yes, and it is the best-value thing on the page. Partner training is $650 a month on any tier and your spouse trains in the same session — the coach is already in the room. A couple on Integrated pays $1,995 a month between them, against $2,690 for two separate engagements.
What happens after twelve weeks?
You get the week 12 re-test, the written report, and a straight recommendation. Most people continue on a rolling basis at the same rate; some take the report and run their own training for a while; some come back in the autumn. There is no auto-renewing contract you have to escape from.
Do you work with people who have not exercised in a decade?
Yes. The hardest part of this job is not writing a programme for a deconditioned 50-year-old — it is getting anyone to do two sessions a week for twelve weeks straight. Removing the drive is most of how that problem gets solved, which is the entire reason this service exists.
Who is actually coming into my house?
Coach Tatum Erickson, every session — not a rotating roster and not a subcontractor. See the section above for certifications and background-check details.
