Ladies-Only Gym in DHA Phase 5: What to Expect on Your First Day

Female coach Silvia Shoukat, who leads the women's group class

Fitnation Gym, 147 CCA, Sector C, DHA Phase 5, Lahore, reserves both floors for women Monday to Saturday from 9 AM to 2 PM. Male members do not train during these hours. Male coaching staff are present for personal training sessions, and the reception desk is staffed by a female receptionist.

If you have never trained in a gym before, or you have stopped going because the floor felt crowded or uncomfortable, this guide explains what your first visit looks like: when to come, who you will meet, what the women’s group class involves, and what it costs.

How do ladies-only gym hours in DHA Phase 5 work at Fitnation?

Many gyms advertise “ladies timing” without saying what it actually means. We would rather you know exactly what to expect before you walk in:

  • When: Monday to Saturday, 9 AM to 2 PM. The gym is closed on Sunday.
  • Where: both floors are reserved for women, not a single room or a corner of the gym.
  • Who else is there: male members do not train during these hours. Male coaching staff are present for personal training sessions.
  • At the front desk: a female receptionist.

Outside these hours, from 7 AM to 9 AM and from 2 PM to 11 PM, the gym is open to everyone. Full timings are on our gym timings page.

What happens when you arrive?

The gym is at 147 CCA, Sector C, above the Bank Alfalah Islamic Penta Square branch and beside Imlaak, about two minutes from Khayaban-e-Jinnah. The entrance is on the ground floor and there is lift access.

At reception, say whether you have come for a 1-day pass, to join, or for the women’s group class. If you are not sure yet, the day pass (PKR 1,000) is the simplest way to see the gym during ladies-only hours before you commit to anything.

What is the women’s group class?

The women’s group class is the only group class at Fitnation Gym. It runs Monday to Saturday from 10 AM to 11 AM and is led by Coach Silvia Shoukat. The class package costs PKR 13,000 a month and includes full gym access, so you can also use the gym floor. There is a one-time PKR 6,000 registration fee.

Because the class sits inside ladies-only hours, you can arrive at 9 AM and use the floor before it starts, or stay on after 11 AM. Full details are on the women’s group class page.

Who will coach you?

Coach Silvia Shoukat leads the women’s group class and offers female-only personal training from 9 AM to 1 PM. She is an IFA Certified Fitness Trainer (Level II), TRX Suspension Training certified, and DNA-Based Training Workshop certified. She coaches:

  • strength and functional training
  • fat loss and endurance
  • muscle gain
  • TRX, and HIIT one-to-one
  • stretching and mobility
  • nutritional guidance

If you would rather work with another coach, Toqeer Khan’s personal training slots run from 10 AM to 2 PM, inside ladies-only hours. Personal training is billed monthly on top of your membership, and your coach sets the number and schedule of sessions with you directly. You can read about every coach on our coaches page.

What should you do on your first day?

Your first session is about getting comfortable, not proving anything. A simple plan:

  1. Take a baseline. A body composition test costs PKR 500 and gives you numbers to compare against in a month, which is far more useful than the bathroom scale.
  2. Warm up for 5 to 10 minutes on a treadmill, elliptical or bike.
  3. Learn three or four basic movements, such as a squat, a push, a pull and a hinge, with light weights. Ask a coach to check your form.
  4. Stop while you still feel good. Leaving with energy left makes it much easier to come back the next day.

What should you wear and bring?

Wear comfortable clothes you can move and bend in, and clean trainers. Bring a water bottle and a small towel. The whole gym is air-conditioned, so you will not be training in Lahore’s heat.
