What Is a Personal Trainer?
A certified personal trainer is someone who has the expertise,
educational background and diagnostic know-how to design
an individualized exercise program. Once your trainer has
found out what your goals are, he or she can tailor a program
to help you achieve them. With a trainer's guidance, you
can maximize your results in a minimal amount of time.
What's a Training Session Like?
At the beginning of your first private exercise session
and consultation, your trainer will discuss your fitness
goals. Your goals will be as individual as your are. By taking
into account what you most want to achieve, your trainer
can design a program that is just right for you. Together
you will set long- and short-term goals.
Your first session will include questions and assessment
tests to give your trainer an idea of your "starting
point" in the areas of cardiovascular fitness, muscular
strength and endurance, joint flexibility and body fat composition.
Once you know where you're starting from and where you want
to go, you can chart your route and measure your progress
along the way.
What are the benefits?
Why do you need a trainer? Can't you
get results just by going into the fitness center and working
out on your own?
Motivation. It takes more than state-of-the-art equipment
to reach your fitness goals. You have to exercise regularly
and make each exercise session count. A trainer will help
you develop the incentive to stick to your exercise plan.
Guidance. A trainer's expertise enables him or her to customize
an exercise program, making it specific to your goals. One
size does not fit all! Plus, your trainer will teach you
correct form, which will maximize efficiency and effectiveness,
and minimize the chance of injury. Finally, as your fitness
improves, your trainer will fine-tune your program to meet
your changing needs and make sure you continue to get results.
Convenience. Don't have the time to exercise? You and your
trainer can figure out a schedule that will work for you.
Together, you can also brainstorm ways to overcome the other
obstacles that stand between you and your goals.
