Before I sold my gym the hot thing we had going was 30 minute sessions. For clients who already knew their warm-up routine they could come in and do their prep work ahead and be ready to hit the ground running when their time slot came up. I never do more than 30 minutes of straight strength training on the average client anyway.
15 min warm-up
30 min workout
10-15 min stretch/manual therapy type stuff
30 minute sessions are good because if you charge something like 65 per session (our going rate at my gym), you could charge 40 for half-hour sessions. Get a bunch of those a day and you have leveraged your time more effectively.
I would also consider shying away from one-on-one. Groups make you a lot more money. But I don't want to hijack this thread.
