YOUR HOST: YAZMIN STEVENS
Hey everyone, it’s Yazmin Stevens!
After three incredible TRAINCATION experiences debuting in 2025, I’m so excited to announce the first three editions for 2026, once again hosted by me and happening in April, May and June in sunny Malta!
These past editions have been everything I dreamed TRNC would be - a powerful mix of lifting, learning, connection, and adventure. I’ve formed real friendships with every single traincation-er, and together we’ve made memories I’ll never forget. Now I can’t wait to do it all over again with a new crew every month starting April!
This week is all about purposeful training, proper recovery, and experiencing the Mediterranean lifestyle. We’ll train daily at Training Room, my gym and second home, where I’ll be lifting right alongside you - sharing guidance, encouragement, and plenty of hype, no matter your level.
I’ve designed a special programme for the week based on my most-loved 8-week block, but if you're following your own training, that’s absolutely fine too - just send it over and I’ll still support you throughout the week. We’ll grow stronger together, whether you’re snatching an empty bar or chasing a big PB.
And when we’re not lifting, we’ll be out enjoying the best Malta has to offer - beach days, spa recovery, and a boat trip to Comino’s famous Blue Lagoon*. We’ll kick things off with a welcome dinner at my favourite pizza spot, and you’ll see me popping into most activities throughout the week, just hanging out and soaking it all in with you. Whether you’re totally new to lifting or a long-time athlete, there’s space for you here.
Come train with me, meet an amazing group of like-minded people, and be part of something special.
Spots are limited, so if you’ve been waiting for the right time, this is it. Let’s make your TRAINCATION one to remember! 💪🏽🌊🍕
THE ITINERARY
DAY 1
When you arrive at the airport, our driver will be there to greet you, help with your bags, and take you straight to your guesthouse in Sliema. Once you’ve settled in, take some time to explore...check out the hotel’s pool, stroll along the promenade, and get a feel for the area while everyone else arrives.
Then, it’s time to officially kick things off with our welcome dinner, where you’ll meet the rest of the crew and start making new friends. I’ll also be there to finally meet you guys in person, and discuss the week's plans while we enjoy a slice of pizza from my favourite local Pizzeria! - on us! 🍕🔥
DAY 2
8:00: Start your day at your own pace. Wake up, get ready, and grab some breakfast at the guesthouse, it's included!
10:30: Transport to Training Room.
11:00: Time for our first session of the week! I’ll meet you at the gym, and we’ll go over the plan for the day! If you’re already following your own program, feel free to stick with it! I’ll still be around to check your technique and offer feedback whenever you need it.
14:00: Session done! Head straight out to explore Malta or head back to your guesthouse...However you spend your afternoon, make sure to get a bit of downtime before the evening activities.
18:15: Pick-up for a Sunset Mobility Session.
18:30: Unwind with a relaxing mobility session led by Will, Training Room’s in-house mobility coach. I’ll meet you at the sunset location and join you for a much-needed stretch as the sun sets.
19:30: Head back to the guesthouse and grab some dinner: solo or with your new lifting crew. The evening’s yours to relax and recharge.
DAY 3
07:00: Rise and shine… or sleep in-this is TRAINCATION, after all.
09:30: Let’s get back on the platform for our 2nd training session of the week! We’ll keep building on the momentum with some quality lifting. Richi will be on-site to capture all the action (and those golden post-lift shots) for your socials-because if you didn’t post it, did it even happen?
16:30: After training, we’re heading out to explore Mdina - the Silent City. I always love taking our groups here...it's so pretty! This ancient, walled town is full of charm, history, and stunning architecture. It's also the best place to get chocolate cake...don't worry I'll show you!
18:30: Next stop: Mġarr! This is Malta's go to for a traditional Maltese dinner. Expect warm hospitality and delicious dishes like rabbit stew, snails (if you're into that), and freshly baked local bread.
21:00: Back to the guesthouse. Wind down for the evening and either rest up for tomorrow, or if you’re still buzzing, head out and enjoy the local nightlife.
DAY 5
07:30: REST DAY. Sleep in, take it slow, and enjoy a relaxed morning...you’ve earned it.
10:00: We’re off to INA Spa, my go-to recovery spot in Malta. Expect a blissful few hours of relaxation with access to the sauna, indoor pool, and a complimentary massage that’s included in your TRNC package. Time to recharge those muscles!
17:00: To make the most of your rest day, we’ve arranged evening transport to Valletta, Malta’s stunning capital city. Wander through historic streets, take in the views from the city’s best lookouts, and enjoy dinner at one of the many amazing restaurants dotted around town.
DAY4
09:00: Mid-week breakfast with the team! Today, you're starting a little earlier! Pack your gym bag and come hungry because I’ve booked you in at one of my all-time favourite breakfast spots before you hit the gym.
11:00: Bellies full...and back at Training Room for another solid session. Let’s keep the energy high and support each other through it...halfway through the week already!
14:00: After three back-to-back training days, it’s time to slow things down. We’re heading to the beach for some well-earned rest and recovery. Bring your towel, snacks, and good vibes...it’s a chill afternoon in the sun.
19:00: Back to the guesthouse to freshen up and wind down. Whether you’re feeling a quiet night in or want to head out for dinner with the crew, you’re in one of Malta’s best nightlife spots, so the choice is yours.
DAY 6
08:00: Rise and shine-it’s time to get back to business with another big training day!
10:30: Pick-up for Training Room. Today’s session is a big one, so bring the energy!
11:00: The rest day was a treat, but now it’s time to get those legs moving again. Let’s lift heavy, move well, and make this session count.
14:00: The afternoon is all yours! Whether you fancy some shopping, or just lounging by the beach-take this time to enjoy Malta your way.
18:00: Head back to the guesthouse and start winding down. We’ve got an early start tomorrow for our final full day together.
20:00: SUPER early to bed, no complaints; you’ll thank me in the morning!
DAY 7
06:00: Early rise for our final full day - let’s make it one to remember!
06:45: Pick-up to head over to Training Room.
07:00–09:00: Our last training session together. Let’s lift, move, and soak up the energy one last time at Training Room. After the session, pack up and get ready - we’ve got a full day out on the water ahead!
09:30: We’re hopping on a boat for the day to explore some of the most iconic spots around the Maltese Islands. Expect beautiful views, hidden coves, and a visit to the famous Blue Lagoon in Comino. We’ll have nibbles, drinks, and loads of time for swimming, tanning, and reflecting on the week we’ve just spent together.
17:30: Return to the guesthouse for a little downtime before our final evening together.
Evening: It’s time for our final group dinner (Which is included in your package!) We’ll raise a glass...or a Maltese Spritz... to a week full of lifting, sunshine, and new friendships. A perfect chance to share some laughs, swap stories, and say goodbye - for now.
DAY 8
Departure Day: Time to say goodbye (for now!)
Your airport transport will be arranged based on your individual departure time, so no need to worry, we’ve got you covered.
Don’t forget to snap those final selfies, exchange socials, and soak up every last moment. Thank you for being part of this unforgettable week, we’ve trained hard, explored harder, and made memories that’ll last a lifetime.
Until next time <3

During our welcome dinner, we’ll sit down together to finalise the plan for the week, adjusting activities before and after training to best suit the vibe of the group. While flexible, the schedule will follow the general structure outlined above.

YOUR TRAINCATION TEAM
From the first TRAINCATION idea to all the logistics: Here is the team that makes TRAINCATIONs happen! Yazmin first thought of a gym vacation concept after so many of her weightlifting friends would visit her for training camps in Malta. She understood the appeal and what her island had to offer, and after taking over Training Room, making this concept a reality just made sense! After presenting the idea to her colleague and friend, Clive, the concept turned into TRAINCATION.
