Our Values
Pret-a-Train was created around strong values and a real “why”.
One of the reasons why is to allow everyone to have a Personal trainer. To allow everyone to feel good and healthier. To allow sports coaches to feel serene and thus to do their jobs in the best possible conditions. And to finally allow you to achieve your goals.
Pret-a-Train was born from a dream, the idea of improving people’s lives had long been in mind. The name was launched in a conversation next to a “Pret” in two seconds and a snap of fingers: “How about Pret-a-Train? – “Yes, okay, the name Pret-a-Train is available.” And behind the actions followed one another to make this dream come true.
Thus, throughout these actions, strong values have always been inked and without them Pret a Train would not exist. These values are therefore fundamental to further progress and they also serve to guide us.
You can find on this page our fundamental values that have followed us since the beginning of our history:
Authenticity, Respect, and Integrity
Authentic and respectful in everything we do, and with all the people we work with. It is fundamental for us to be honest in what we say and how we do things.Authenticity, Respect and Integrity are therefore part of the basis of our values and it is important to keep them at all costs.
Well-being
Clients, employees, interns, and the whole team. We always do things in a good mood and for the well-being of everyone.
Well-being is an integral part of our lives. We admit to you that we are like everyone else. At times, we sometimes feel like “shit”, let’s put it that way. However, we always look at the positive side of things, because it is the positive side that drives us forward.
Thus, we exercise and eat healthy most of the time, even if we are human and drink beer, coffee and sometimes we can eat pizzas and burgers. Especially during the cheat meal. Nevertheless, well-being is and will always be an integral part of our lives.
Strenght and dignity
Life will always hit us all. We will all have wonderful moments and very unhappy moments in the opposite direction too. This is life. That’s why at Pret a Train, we have the value of always being strong during the hardest times, but also to always know how to recognize the good ones. This last point is essential. It is very important to recognize and celebrate good times.
Thus, despite the hard times that can occur, it is always necessary to be true and worthy of oneself by never changing these fundamental values.
True and Human above all
One of our strong values is to remain true and human above all. Some things can make us change, not really make us think about it, or even robotise us like in the world we live in now. However, we keep our heads on our shoulders and we are careful to always keep this human side. No one is perfect, we all have flaws and qualities. Nevertheless, being human and connected to others has always been something in which we strongly believe and that we want to respect
unconditionally.
Progress, Performance and Knowledge
Progress, progress, progress. Pret-a-Train is straddling the progression. Like the famous consistency of always ensuring that we offer quality service. Performance is something we care about. Just like you who want to evolve, we also do it for us. Knowing that it is through your feedback that we also evolve. So let’s continue to progress together!
In addition to progress, we are always learning and listening to open up to new things. Anyone working in our team always learns, through health, sport. We also all learn from each others.
Contributing to a better world
The “purpose” is very simple at Pret-a-Train. We were created with the aim of making our entourage and the clients we coach healthier and feel better. We help our customers get the look they expect, but not just that! We offer them better physical and mental conditions. Because don’t forget, health is the most important thing we all can have!
By educating them in the best way possible on how to eat and train, we hope to combat some of the menaces that can harm our world. We are currently in the midst of a battle against heart diseases, cancer, cholesterol and diabetes.
The people we coach will then be able to share their knowledge with others and their children. And little by little, thanks to a certain regularity, we can each change the world and thus contribute to a better world
Consistency
Just as you change by following our advices and training with consistency and regularity, so too do you. At Pret-a-Train we are also constant and regular in what we do. We deliver training constantly, we are honest and keep our values and ethics. We always do the best we can to be consistent on all the things we do.
Always do your best
Everyone has their moments when they are at their best, and others when they feel less well. Anyway, we always do the best we can with the energies we have in us at that time.
Work hard but always with pleasure
At Pret a Train, we work hard because we believe in it. If we want to succeed in our lives, it comes through work at one time or another. However, we work hard but just as intelligently. Just like you do during your workout with us. These training sessions can be tough, which is normal. However, we train you in an intelligent way to enable you to achieve the desired results quickly.
Everyone is involved in the work we do because we know it is important. We are here to help people get better. Nevertheless, because we work hard, we always enjoy what we do. So time passes quickly. Just like holidays and sleep when we sleep and say to ourselves: “Gee, it’s already 8:00!”
So after working hard, we make sure to enjoy it. Life is like that: don’t forget to live and enjoy it.
Charity
It can be very hard to want to help everyone. We believe that each one of us has this charity within us. But the life between high and low, strength, work, emotions and others makes the task complicated. However, on our small and growing scale, we are in charity, wanting to help as many people as possible.
We have thus established a partnership with agriculture because we believe that it is another essential element of our world. Agriculture is facing real difficulties in today’s world as it allows us to live. The breath certainly makes us breathe, but the food keeps us alive, it’s as simple as that.
Broccoli
So then, you may wonder why broccoli comes in values. I want you to know that this is perfectly legitimate.
To explain it simply, some people have a God, and some just believe in Broccoli. Yes, small and green, similar to the brain, broccoli is said to be an armour against cancer and therefore helps our world to become a better place. This vegetable reflects our values.
Humour is also an integral part of us. We never hesitate to send jokes or laugh at each other and with customers. In addition to making us laugh, it makes our abs work!
The future
We are living in the present moment and we are well within to achieve the current goals. However, our vision is broader and we are looking toward the future. We see this future as ever more beautiful.
Unfortunately, we are in a period of our modern life that needs change. It also needs people who dare to speak out to change these things. This climate change, or these recurring health problems,… Whatever the case, Pret-a-Train is moving forward in search of a better future while continuing to respect our values.
So let us continue to move forward and move forward together.
