Why do I need a Personal Trainer?

There are 9 reasons why you may be interested in seeking

a personal trainer.

Lets go through them…

One of the main reasons people benefit from a personal trainer is that they need that extra push to get moving!

Motivation

Individualized program

If you have any chronic health conditions, injuries, or training goals (running a

marathon, for example) a trainer will work with you and your health care provider to

plan a safe, efficient program that considers these needs and enable you to reach your

health goals.

Personal Trainers help you focus on results. A personal trainer has a plan and will help you get maximum results in minimum time.

Improve technical skills

If you play a particular sport, the right personal trainer will help you improve your skill by

showing you new training techniques specific to your sport.

The Trainer will incorporate skills training into your program so you improve not only your strength and endurance, but your agility and

mental focus as well.

If you are an absolute beginner, a personal trainer is the ultimate fitness coach. You will be introduced to a very simple, effective routine.Before you know it, you have the confidence and knowledge to decide what is right for you.

You are new to exercise

Ok, you are already in pretty decent shape, but you've been there for years. If you are stuck in the same routine and want to break out of a rut, a personal trainer is the perfect solution!

Break through plateaus

A trainer will jump start, not only your motivation, but your routine as well.

If you ultimately want to learn to design your own routines, going for a few months may be all you need. A personal trainer will teach you the basics of building and modifying a fitness program to achieve maximum results.

Learn how to do it alone

• A personal trainer watches:-your form-monitors your vitals-provides objective feedback about your limits and strengths.

Workout SafelyMost of us tend to ignore some of

the subtle signals our body provides. We either push through pain or give

up too soon. Because a personal trainer can watch what you are doing while you are doing it, they can help

push you or slow you down as necessary.

-The number one reason people hire personal trainers is to lose weight and get into shape.

What are your qualifications

and certification?

A qualified personal trainer has an education in physiology, health promotion, athletic

training, kinesiology or a similar field.

certification from a reputable

organization such as ACSM, ACE, IDEA, YMCA, NSCA or
