Now, personal training is something that obviously I am very passionate about. I see people meeting their goals every day with personal training when they have struggled for years, either with their weight, an injury, a disease, or just not feeling “right”. Fitness gives you an energy that you cannot get from anything else. It not only helps your confidence and your appearance but because your body is functioning properly, you feel better doing your everyday things. And that is just an amazing feeling.

When beginners join a gym, the cost and work of a fitness program and personal training can seem daunting. I understand that. And nobody says you have to train 3 times a week or more with a trainer. And nobody says that you have to be wealthy or a celebrity or young or anything else in order to do personal training.

Personal training — JUST THAT — PERSONAL

So what works for you is the right thing. If you only want to train once a week and do your other workouts on your own — then that is what personal training is for you.

If you just know in your heart that you will not come to the gym without an appointment, then try two to three times a week for the first month (yes, maybe only the first month) because for some people, it will become a habit after about 30 days. After that you can try doing it once a week or alone for a bit — just remember to keep an eye to make sure you don’t stop.

If you have a previous injury or a back back or another limitation, then you probably need some corrective training before you jump into anything so that you don’t create a larger problem.

If you have never worked out with weights, you probably need a few sessions to even know what exercises are effective and how much weight you should be using. And I mean only a few — for most people, a routine can be learned in just a handful of sessions. Don’t expect that you will learn it in just one when you have never lifted weights before. But a handful — yes. Then you will have it completely perfected and can continue on your own.

I hope this gives you some ideas on personal training and how it can be a part of your workout and give you an amazing start to a whole new world of being fit and healthy
