Roar is one of those transformation style places. I know 2 PTs that used to work in those types of gym and this kind of thing is standard practice. Essentially they’re designed for money rich, time poor people who need to be slightly beasted.
For me training in a nice gym, with all the equipment you could want, classes, PT and medical teams is worth the money. It costs more but I find that it makes me train longer and better.
Looking at where you are now, a PT who knows your goals and a regular training plan at the gym should more than suffice.

I've gone back to finish off at Roar, despite me telling them that I've continued training for the entire period of lockdown and have just completed a strength block they've put me back on the Noddy weights. I've asked to go back to the point I was out when we entered lockdown, but they seem intent on getting me to sign up for another training block (which I'm not going to do), saying that they can only go heavier as part of a new program.
I'm there at lunchtime today so will see what they have decided to do.
For example - shoulder press at home, with my weights - 26kg. Max that Roar would allow, 12.5kg. So I'm de-training, in training sessions that I've paid for.
