Private Personal Training in Las Vegas
Personal training built around your body, schedule, goals and real life — led by Dave Vaughan, 25+ years coaching in Las Vegas.
In-home, private studio, or hybrid — you pick the setting
Forget The Gym is Dave Vaughan's private personal-training practice in Las Vegas. Sessions happen in your home, at a private studio, or as a hybrid mix — whichever actually fits the life you're living. No packed gym floor. No waiting for a rack. No performing in front of strangers.
Dave has spent more than 25 years coaching in Las Vegas — touring artists at their homes, executives at private studios in Summerlin and Henderson, and everyday clients who lost 30, 50, and 80+ pounds while working full-time jobs.

Frequently asked questions
How much does personal training in Las Vegas cost?
Private 1-on-1 training with Dave starts with a $500 refundable deposit that reserves your intake. Pricing is built around the actual coaching load — session frequency, in-home vs. private studio, travel across the valley, and how much programming and nutrition support you want — rather than a fixed package tier.
Do you offer in-home personal training?
Yes. Dave brings a full mobile setup — bands, dumbbells, mobility tools — to your home in Summerlin, Henderson, The Ridges, Southern Highlands, Anthem, Green Valley, and surrounding Las Vegas neighborhoods.
Where do sessions take place?
In your home, at a private studio, or on-site depending on what fits your schedule. Hybrid clients mix in-person sessions with remote programming so training keeps moving between visits.
Do I need to already be in shape?
No. Roughly half of Dave's private clients are returning to training or starting for the first time. Programming is built around your current capacity — not a template.
Can you work around previous injuries?
Yes. Injury-aware and post-rehab programming is one of Dave's specialties. Sessions start with a movement screen and every plan is written around what your body can safely do today.
Do you train clients over 40?
Yes — a large share of Dave's Las Vegas clients are adults in their 40s, 50s, and 60s who want to feel strong, move well, and stay lean without hammering their joints.
Do you offer hybrid or online coaching?
Yes. Hybrid combines in-person Vegas sessions with remote programming and check-ins. Fully online coaching is a secondary option for clients outside the valley — $39/month through the Forget The Gym app.
How often should I train?
Most private clients meet 2–4 times per week depending on their goal, schedule and recovery. Dave will recommend a cadence during your consultation.
What areas of Las Vegas do you serve?
Las Vegas, Summerlin, Henderson, Southern Highlands, Spring Valley, Green Valley, Enterprise, Centennial Hills, and the surrounding valley.
How do I get started?
Start with a short consultation. Dave will talk through your goals, injuries, schedule and training preferences, then recommend in-home, private studio or hybrid — and build pricing around that plan.
