A Little Guidence for Choosing a Personal Trainer

Do you know your fitness goals? Are you looking to just change up your lifestyle via nutrition choices? Need a boost to your already regimented fitness routine? Maybe you don't have a clue where to begin!

Changing your Life can be an overwhelming concept but with a Personal Trainer, you can have the process put into motion with an individualized plan of action.

But the market is flooded with personal trainers you say! Online and offline. So many choices, how do you choose?

First, determine if you would like a Personal Trainer in the flesh or online. Then I highly recommend a consultation with any and all of trainers you are interested in possibly hiring.

Second, determine if you have a good solid connection personality wise. This can make or break your success! If you are spending about 3 hours a week with someone who will be pushing you past your lists and comfort zone, it's important to ensure you are comfortable in such a vulnerable situation.

Third, education and experience need to be considered. The education among trainers is relatively similar but when it comes to experience more years than less isn't necessarily the best way to determine a good Personal Trainer. It comes from their ability to continue learning, ensure to stay within their scope of practice but be able to recognize when their client requires an alternative support to a properly functioning body. For example, a Massage Therapist or an Athletic Therapist. (A trainer who has been trying for years but incorrectly and causing injury as a result, isn't a good trainer just because they have been doing it for years!)

Lastly, referrals! Ask other people who have worked with a Personal Trainer, this can be of great help when determining who to chose.

One thing is for certain, if you work with someone who can support you and guide you down the right personalized plan for you, alongside your determination, you will succeed greater than you could have imagined. We are here to help and make sure you stay on the path to change your life for life.

Much love ❤
