Looking for an online personal trainer in Riyadh or Jeddah who fits an executive diary? Being Fit coaches clients in Saudi Arabia from Dubai through the Being Fit app: a personalised workout plan, a nutrition plan built around how you eat, and daily check-ins your coach reviews. Saudi Arabia is just one hour behind Dubai.
I’m Gawhar Ahmad, licensed pharmacist and head coach at Being Fit. Senior professionals in Saudi Arabia often split their weeks between offices, compounds, flights and family commitments. This guide explains how our online coaching in Saudi Arabia works for executives, and what to expect in the first month.
Key takeaways
- Everything runs in the Being Fit app: workouts, nutrition plan and daily check-ins.
- Your coach works almost exactly your hours, because Saudi Arabia is on UTC+3, one hour behind Dubai.
- Plans work at home, in a compound or building gym, in a hotel room or any gym.
- Nutrition fits Saudi food, family meals, business dinners and Ramadan.
- Pricing is shared one-to-one on WhatsApp; there is no fixed price list.
Why online coaching suits executives in Saudi Arabia
Executives rarely have the same week twice. A fixed class timetable or a trainer who needs you at one gym at one time breaks down quickly. Online coaching moves with you: your sessions are in your phone, you train when your day allows, and your coach adjusts the plan when your week changes. It also travels. If you fly between Riyadh, Jeddah, Dubai and Europe, the plan comes with you.
How it works, step by step
- WhatsApp us. Tell us your city, goal and schedule. We answer questions, share pricing and set up your Being Fit app account.
- Assessment. A video call and questionnaire cover your goals, training and health history, injuries, medicines, schedule and equipment. If anything needs your doctor’s input before you start, we tell you.
- Your plans in the app. Your coach writes your workout programme and nutrition plan. Each session lists exercises, sets, reps, rest and form notes.
- Daily check-ins. Nutrition, sleep, water and energy in under a minute, plus workouts, weight, measurements and progress photos.
- Coach feedback. Your coach reviews your check-ins, checks your form from short videos and adjusts the plan.

Training in Riyadh
Riyadh’s very hot summers move most training indoors: home, compound gym or a commercial gym. Your coach plans strength sessions around the equipment you actually have, from a full gym to a pair of dumbbells, and saves outdoor walking and conditioning for the cooler winter months. Early mornings before the office are often the easiest time to protect. See our online coaching in Riyadh page for local details.
Training in Jeddah
Jeddah’s humid coastal climate also pushes hard training indoors for much of the year, while cooler evenings in winter suit walks along the waterfront. Clients in Jeddah use the same app, check-ins and coach feedback as clients in Riyadh; your plan is simply adapted to your building, gym and routine.
Nutrition that respects how you eat
Your nutrition plan is built with input from the qualified nutritionist / dietitian on our team. It works with kabsa, dates, Arabic coffee, family meals and business dinners rather than replacing them with a strict meal list. During Ramadan, the plan adapts to suhoor and iftar timings and moves training to a time that suits your energy. Learn more about our online nutrition coaching.
A sample executive week
- Two or three strength sessions of 40 to 60 minutes, full body.
- One conditioning or mobility session, shorter on travel days.
- Daily walking, including walking calls where possible.
- Daily check-in in the app, so your coach can adjust before a busy week derails progress.
Most plans include strength training on two or more days a week, in line with World Health Organization guidance on muscle-strengthening activity.

Online or in person?
If you live in Saudi Arabia and visit Dubai regularly, a mix often works best: online coaching at home, and in-person sessions when you are in Dubai. Our comparison of online vs in-person personal training explains the trade-offs, and what to expect from an online personal trainer covers the first weeks.
